  • @HASWLRS We grant you the weekend off! Take some time for yourself and enjoy!
  • Username: holly2e Date: March 29 Previous weight: 134.1 Current weight: 133.8 To be honest, I have completely fallen off the wagon as far as logging and watching calories goes. I have still been exercising fairly regularly, which may be why the scale is still moving (super slowly) in the right direction, but I am feeling…
  • March 26 Exercise: yes, 30 min tabata, 30 min yoga Calories: yes Tracking: yes
  • Saturdays are always hard for me to stay in calorie range. Calories: no, tracking: yes. But I did exercise, 60 min yoga and a walk with the family tonight. So glad the weather is warmer.
  • March 23 Exercise: yes 60 min cross training class (I had to teach it, otherwise I might have waited another day or two :wink: ) Calories: no not quite Tracking: yes I will get back on track! Yes I will.
  • Username: holly2e Weigh in day- Thursday Date: March 22 Previous- 134.3 Current- 134.1 I am hoping that tomorrow will be my day to feel good again. I am ready to be back in the routine and exercising again. I need to start logging again too, I have gotten out of the habit this past week.
  • Hey there team, I got hit with the flu or some kind of nasty virus again. I’ve been out of commission for the last several days but am starting to feel a little better. Definitely still not up to exercising (can hardly stand for a few minutes without feeling like fainting) but am eating again so that’s a step in the right…
  • March 16 Exercise: yes, 45 min body pump, 15 min tabata Calories: yes Tracking: yes My in laws are in town this weekend. I will be spending a lot of time in the kitchen. Not to avoid them but just cooking and cleaning haha. Wish me luck ;)
  • March 15 Exercise: yes, 45 min yoga Calories: no, went over with dessert Tracking: yes At least I tracked everything! Often when I know I’m going over calories, I just don’t even bother tracking, but I think it’s good for the habit to make myself track anyway.
  • Username: holly2e Weigh in day - Thursday Date: March 15 Previous weight: 135.6 Current weight: 134.3 I’m feeling good! Happy with the number today.
  • March 14 Exercise: yes, 60 min body pump Calories: yes Tracking: yes Hoping for a good weigh in tomorrow!
  • March 13 Exercise: yes, 45 min yoga Calories: yes Tracking: yes
  • @HASWLRS that’s true! I never thought about Mondays like that. I guess there IS a good reason to like them. For a fresh start :) Mini challenge March 12 Exercise: yes, 30 min tabata, 30 min yoga Calories: yes Tracking: yes
  • You are doing great, team! I’m happy for all of your weight loss and effort with the mini challenge! I didn’t do well at all this weekend, between birthday parties and my kids getting sick, I just kinda put myself on the back burner. You know how we do, moms. Today I am tracking again and have a good workout planned for…
  • March 9 Today is my daughters birthday and we had a party tonight and were crazy busy all day and I didn’t get around to tracking a single thing. But I did exercise (60 min cross training class) and did a lot of cleaning. Tomorrow is going to be party day #2 (shopping and family party) so I will do my best!
  • @HASWLRS you are an amazing team captain! So encouraging and smart too. I will remember what you said about the scale recording our food choices even if we don’t track them. That is helping me!
  • Username: holly2e Weigh-in week: march week 1 Last week's weight: 135.9 Today's weight: 135.6 Mini challenge March 8 Exercise: yes, 60 min yoga, plus lots of walking Calories: yes Tracking: yes
  • Oops I meant March 7 too! Haha
  • March 6 Exercise: yes, 60 min body pump Calories: yes Tracking: yes I’ve been thinking about my goals. I am only about 10 pounds away from my goal weight, but it’s definitely a slow process at this point. Each little bit is a challenge. So I just need to be steady and not give up. I decided my goal for March is to be in…
  • March 6 Exercise: yes, 45 min yoga Calories: yes Tracking: yes I like the questions of the week and will respond tomorrow when my brain is fresh :)
  • March 5 Exercise: yes, 30 min tabata, 30 min yoga Calories: yes Tracking: yes Nice to hear from so many people, and new teammates. Hope you all have a great week!
  • So far not so good on the mini challenge. Day 1, March 4: Exercise: yes, 45 min yoga Tracking: no Calories: highly doubt it Not a great way to start the month but I am not going to let it get me down. Every day is a fresh start and that is good news for me!
  • Hi everyone, sorry I am so late posting my intro! My name is Holly and I am also a mother of young children (I have four kids aged 5 months to 7 years old). I am in the process of losing baby weight (again) and it’s going pretty well. I have a hard time getting around to logging my food sometimes, just so busy, and then I…
  • March 2 Exercise: 60 min yoga, 30 ish minutes walking Calories: yes Tracked: yes I had eaten almost all my calories by mid-afternoon (oops!) but figured a way to make it work with a low calorie dinner so I’m feeling pretty proud. Forgot to report my steps yesterday: 5839 Today: 3605. I am really not too good at the step…
  • Mini challenge March 1 Didn’t do too great - spent almost all day cleaning for guests that came over tonight. So I guess that counts as exercise but I didn’t track and I’m sure went over calories. New day tomorrow :)
  • Username: holly2e Weigh in week: February Week 4 Weigh in day: Thursday Previous weight: 136.9 Current weight: 135.9 So happy for my weight loss that I celebrated by having a gigantic dinner with lots of dessert haha. Not a good way to celebrate! Oh well, I have a whole week to make up for it now.
  • Feb 28 Exercise: yes, 60 min body pump, 30 min slow walk Calories: Yes Tracked: yes Steps: 6752 Thanks for your response to my questions @HASWLRS I did a little research and discover s that Apple Watch doesn’t include resting calories in any exercise so it often looks like less than other tracking devices. Didn’t find out…
  • Feb 27 Exercise: yes, 30 min yoga and 30 min walk Tracked: yes Calories: not quite Steps: 5235 Does anyone think there is a difference between how different devices track steps and/or calories? Sometimes I wonder if my watch doesn’t give me enough steps or calories for what I do! Or maybe I think I’m working harder than I…
  • Mini challenge Feb 25 Exercise: yes, 45 min yoga Tracked: yes Calories: no, but not too far over Feb 26 Exercise: yes, 30 min tabata, 30 min yoga Tracked: yes Calories: yes
  • I like the idea of the step challenge. I have an Apple Watch that I have used for tracking calories burned during workouts, and for a few other things, but I have never paid much attention to steps. Today I have 7579, which includes my workout of 30 min tabata/30 min yoga. I normally never wear my watch when I’m at home so…
