Exercise: 4.8 mile walk Tracked: Yes Calories: Yes I'm trying to do less social activities that are centered around food, so my friend and I went for a walk in the park again. We did go out to eat but we both ordered from the snack menu (2 sliders and fries). It was perfectly filling. He had a margarita and I drank water,…

I weigh myself daily, but I am taking a break from it this week. My weight is up and I'm pretty sure it's because I started the new strength program and while I know my muscles are holding on to more water, mentally it is a little tough for me. I weigh myself because I need it for that extra accountability because I just…

@LazyBlondeChef I don't know what kind of lunge variations you are doing with your program, but I was finding doing lunges with weights was really bothering my knees. I started doing reverse lunges instead and it solved the problem for me. This is the video that I found that helped me. She goes over squats first and then…

Exercise: Core 10, Yoga 30, Arms 10 +20, Walk Tracked: Yes Calories: Yes After losing weight twice before and stopping tracking only to gain the weight back, I've realized I will always need to track my food.

Exercise:✅ Today was an active recovery day, and I needed it as I am ouchy all over. Yoga 10 hips, Pilates 15, Core 10, Spin Low Impact 25. Tomorrow is supposed to glutes and legs day but I think I might need to swap it with arms and shoulders. We'll see how bad it is tomorrow. The 10 min cores are killing me the most…

My goals this month are keeping with the strength training program and do a daily yoga no matter how short. Food wise I am trying to get 3 servings of fish a week and hit 20 out my 24 Daily Dozen serving.

Lol, this morning was a bit of a whoops moment. I was making a smoothie and threw in a few extra ingredients. Cough.. 649... calorie smoothie which is about double my normal breakfast. So ended up over. I like getting the fruits and veggies in my smoothie, but I'm also just not finding them as filling. NSV - Since it was…

Congrats to all UAC Champions and Winners. What an awesomely long list!! I've been MIA for most the month. Just was in a bit of a funk. Yesterday, though, I went with a friend to the new Little Island Park in NYC, which is very cool. And then we went for a walk through the Highland Park. It was just the reset I needed.…

✅✅✅ Daily Dozen: 19/24 Passes: 3 of 3 As for my weight loss journey, I gained weight many years ago and lost it by walking and watching what I ate. Then I was in a hit and run accident (I was not badly injured) that left me feeling a bit tired and I got out of the habit of walking. Gained all the weight back. Few years…

The 2nd was a pass for me too. Just poor planning on my part really. I splurged at the breakfast buffet and it was either no dinner or go over. I decided on dinner (a healthy one though - unlike breakfast). Passes 2 of 3.

Well, I am back in NY now but had a wedding to go to right when I got back, lol. Not the best way to start off the new month but the 1st was a pass for me. Waaaayyyy over calories and I didn't even bother tracking all the tapas I had at the wedding not to mention drinks. Oh my! I've ordered a bunch of frozen fruits and…

@mshawski Love the ring, very much the style I like. Today, my little sweetie Kitcat whose been with me for 15 years passed away. It's really hard that I wasn't there for her (I'm still in Atlanta), but my best friend who was cat sitting was. She went very quickly and peacefully he said. I'd missed my morning walk, but…

✅✅✅ Fruits/Veggies- 4-5 Actually, today we went to Callaway Gardens, which was fantastic. We walked some trails while and saw a show Birds of Prey. My family has always liked going on trails together. My dad was telling me I actually had been here before when I was in a stroller and he was stationed nearby.
