Hey all, not going to post weights today. Weight was up this morning but my muscles are also quite sore, so there's that as a potential reason. Takes some getting used to again to more running, and pole, and stuff :) But it feels NICE! B) Anyhow, weekend challenge No. 1 of July is right around the corner. In-laws will…

@I4a_p any news on the fast? You have a cheering crowd here waiting for news ;) And to the others, desk jobs are killer! Similar to @SummerSkier I do try to take regular breaks in the morning, lunch break and afternoon to go for a walk. So nice and it just feels good to stretch the legs. Also moving around to fetch…

Let’s make it last 😋

Hello back :) Sounds like you had your hands full with other things. I hope your grandma is doing better by now. Don't worry about the July thread. It gave @rianneonamission a nice way to return again as well :) Here's to keeping and sticking to the good parts. The rest's gonna fall back in place soon!

Hey all, one week in. So far, so good. :) Logged daily, moved daily, posted at least once a week ;) Weight... well, work in progress. In any case, I got my man on board now as well. He realized yesterday that he gained more than me over the past period and is now so upset that it'll be easier to clean up the weekly…

@weatherking2019 I don't have kids so I don't dare to claim that I can fully understand. From friends with anxiety or depression I can follow to some degree how hard it must be to watch someone you heavily care about having to fight their demons so much. How much more intense must it be when it's your own child??? My…

Hey all, so here goes again. New month, new (old) goals. June had me on a good start and then came a little dip where it took me 2 weeks to catch up again. It does help me to stay on track if I'm more engaged and active here. It's like a nice gentle reminder to not stray too far off the good path. So let's see to keep this…

@rianneonamission Welcome back :) Nice to see you around again. You'll notice that some of us recently also had some challenges with consistency but we're hanging in there, consistently picking back up the pieces and findingg a rhythm again. You're not alone in this :)

@cayenne_007 How the shmurk did you manage that?!? I spent a lot of time with horses back in the day but never ever did I get see a horse sit down. Dog or cat on horse, yes, someone upside down on horse, yes. But not a horse on it's butt. I admire the level of trust that you developed there in them. <3

@weatherking2019 : Amazing dress! So flowy. I hope that finding this one will help a little with picking up your spirits! Also don't forget to take the occasional moment to yourself. You seem to have a busy life and the wedding is coming on top of it all. With the workouts come feel-good hormones from exercising. Maybe a…

Steady wins the race. Goal #1: Start losing what I regained since February. => Small start made for the monthly average. Goal #2: Log and post more regularly. Logging at least 5 out of 7 days, posting at least weekly. =>Logged every day. Posting again after a break of 2 weeks. Goal #3: Stay active. => Work in progress.…

Consistency seems to be a theme this month it seems. Once the old loops kick in, it's a slippery slope. Definitely need @I4a_p 's Judicious July thread B)

Hi all, How is everyone? I enjoyed some quiet two weeks and have a bit of catching up to do here 😊 My break started with a nice long weekend. And when I came back to the office my inbox was flooded like I had been gone for two weeks instead of two days. Happy days! Have been working my b*** off since then. And that while…

Awesome news! In NL I haven't seen the waiters wearing facemasks yet. They seem to rely more on the questioning when you enter, hand-sanitizing, and gloves for themselves. Let's see. To be experienced at some point. We were talking about this new pancake place. At least it's not in the middle of town, and thus a bit more…

No worries, lady :) It's much easier to use a screenshot I find than trying to get the previous entries copy/pasted without messing up. At least that's me. My talents (read: patience) for using computers are limited. It actually makes me happy to see that I'm not the only one taking the route of screenshot-ing. Whatever…

How was the date night? Did you go out? I hope you enjoyed the heck out of it! I'm currently trying to get my man to go out with me somewhere this month. There's a new pancake place that opened just 10 minutes walking from home, looks lovely - classic Dutch pancakes :) . Otherwise in 8 days: order sushi. :) It's what we…

It was even more than 0.4 lbs. When you go from kg to lbs, it's almost .9 lbs. For now, I'm not worried. I assume it was just the initial water weight. Before starting to get serious again, I thought I was doing okay with calorie uptake but there was a good amount of salt and sugar involved. And bread and pasta. What I…

Hi all, New month, new attempt at this. After my enthusiastic start into May, that part quickly went down the quick sand . AND the happy result: I’m back to where I started last September. *facepalm* Apparently, things didn’t quite work as I planned. Like consistently follow the conversations here, which I know helps me to…

Heya you two, is there a way to re-name the thread maybe and set it up for the July edition? I like the name as well and think it would be a pity to lose it :) UPDATE: Just checked on the May thread if it was possible to change the title. If I understood correctly, it's not possible to change anything anymore. :/

HEEEYYYY all, finally a moment to check back in with all of you. :) The last two weeks had been enormously busy at work and usually I take a moment early in the day to post something here before I could be sidetracked. I prefer writing stuff on the laptop over the mobile. Chances of finding the right letters are better ;)…

@Antiopelle and @weatherking2019 , I feel you! Yesterday I got hit by a snack grazing attack. And dinner was heavy. So I was just under 3000 kcal myself. No weighing this morning. I just couldn't, not after yesterday being so meh. What I didn't see coming was also my monthly timing. So PMS cravings met an outdoor…

I'll post some numbers tomorrow, my mood is too meh right now to bother with looking at them any longer. In terms of logging I have been consistent. Chocolate (and other sugar stuff) consumption is lower by now (thank goodness), but the weekend brought some alcohol and less activity. So my weight has been creeping up even…

*sigh* I have done well yesterday on food and drink and am waiting for my body to finally respond to the decrease in sugar intake (and that even during my weekly day in the office!). At least I slept much better last night and feel a bit fresher. AND I have a hairdresser appointment in a month waiting for me :D Latest…
