Username : azkunk Weigh In Day: Sunday PW:179.8 CW: 179.0 LTD: 28 Small loss this week. But it’s a loss and the first one in a long time. I started strong this week but then slipped as the long weekend started. I need to figure a way to keep things in control as the weekend approaches. That will be my goal for this week.

@888Angie888 - you can do this @Megan_smartiepants1970 - hopefully the break of your feet made an impact and the pain will not be as bad once you start walking again @Tazaria87 - Happy Birthday! Great plan with the cupcakes

@rwood566 - glad you are feeling a little better. Hope you get the halter and cpap set up soon @TheresaM787 - I love you daily motivation and your comments are so supportive. You are a great motivator. Thank you 😊 @lindamtuck2018 - same for you! Thank you for all of the support and motivation 😊 Good luck at the e doctor…

@TheresaM787 - I love that! I read a book YEARS ago with a title something like Change One and it was about just that. I often think in those terms as a result. @Poobah1972 - your heart muscle all of the heart stats that you mentioned definitely indicates improved cardiac fitness. You are CRUSHING it and continue to…

Check-in for Tue, 5/26 Check in daily: ✅ Water (90oz): ✅ Macros (P>100, C<115, F<40):❌❌✅ Exercise= row 20 min 4x /wk: ✅❔❔❔ Protein was a little low and carbs were a little high but fat and overall calories were under budget so I’ll call that a win. I did row for 20 minutes and even got in 8995 steps. If only I looked at my…

@TheresaM787 - it was 6:00pm and 95 degrees. I was wearing jeans and a long sleeved shirt. I definitely broke a sweat 🥵 @Tazaria87 - that’s a nice long walk @Megan_smartiepants1970 - I am so glad that you have finally recovered. I’m sure Aspen has been missing his walks as much as you @888Angie888 - weekends are my…

Check-in for Monday, 5/24 Check in daily: ✅ Water (90oz):✅ Macros (P>100, C<115, F<40): ✅✅✅ Exercise= row 20 min 4/wk: ❔❔❔❔ Yesterday was a good day.

I needed to hear this! I am right there ... “too busy”. I need to stop making excuses and take some accountability!

Username : azkunk Weigh In Day: Sunday PW:??? CW: 179.8 LTD: 27.2 Sorry for the late weigh-in. It was a busy week with middle and elementary school promotions. The weekend was busy too but the scale put me in a funk 😒 pity party is over and I am determined to rock it this week.

I typed a very long reply to most but my daughter interrupted me and it was gone when I returned my focus to my phone. 😡 @Poobah1972 - I don’t recognize the Canadian reference ranges but your A1C is good a a measure of the past 3 months. When were these labs drawn. If it were recent a new A1C might not reveal what is going…

1. Check in daily ✅ 2. Track accurately ✅ 3. Macros P-105/ C-115/ F-40 ✅ 4. Water 90 oz✅ 5. Row 5x/wk ✅❔❔❔❔ Much better day today. Tomorrow will be a temptation. My son’s 8th grade promotion is tomorrow and I promised to take him to the place called Cereal Killerz which is new and has these crazy ice cream, cereal, pop…

@lindamtuck2018 - I am so glad that you finally have some answers. I hope there is a good solution to your nerve problem so that you can do all the things that you used to be able to do pain free.

@mszoueb - nice loss 🤩 That pizza looked delicious. @jimboden3 - any pain? Possible hernia? Good plan to take it easy until you see the doctor. @lindamtuck2018 - thank you 😊 the fatigue is slowly improving. I’m not sure if it was the diet break or changes in meds. I just hope it continues. @littleflutterby - I lover the…

1. Check in daily ✅ 2. Track accurately ❌ 3. Macros P-105/ C-115/ F-40 ❌ 4. Water 90 oz✅ 5. Row 5x/wk ❔❔❔❔❔ Not the best day but not the worst. I failed to plan for a busy afternoon/ evening and gave in to pizza which I had to estimate. Macros were all off but close. Too busy to row but I did take a few walking breaks…

Not weighing in officially due to my break but I am up 3 lbs. Today, I will start getting back on track and hope that gain will come back off. Overall, I feel less fatigued and mentally refreshed and ready to jump back in. My goals for this week: 1. Check in daily 2. Track accurately 3. Macros P-105/ C-115/ F-40 4. Water…

What if the croutons are made of Angel food cake cake???? https://www.bhg.com/recipe/fruit-salad-with-pound-cake-croutons/

@lindamtuck2018 - I hope the break helps 😊 @TheresaM787 - I get my talk time in the car while shuttling my daughter back and forth to dance. If I am giving up my free time for her, she needs to keep her face out of her phone @rlaskey2 - nice steps @Megan_smartiepants1970 - Your pain seems excessive and I know you can…

Had my blood drawn today to check my thyroid function. I am not suspecting anything abnormal there but it doesn’t hurt to check. I was super fatigued yesterday, took an hour nap at 5:30 after work and then went to bed at 9:00. Still tired today. I got a free venti iced americano in addition to my hot americano this morning…

@TheresaM787 - it’s nice that your daughter wants to walk with you. My kinds find walking “boring” and done not see the value of the 1:1 time. But walking season is all but ver here as we will hit our first 100*F day of the year this week 🥵🌵 @iradi8 - if I leave it down and wet, it would be a hot mess. She should try…

@rlaskey2 - I am not a fan of protein shakes but I did find one that I love from Fairlife. The chocolate tasted just like drinking chocolate milk and the van was the perfect base for a homemade smoothie. @lindamtuck2018 - my hair is curly and I go to bed every night with it wet. I leave a little conditioner I. It and put…

Week one of my break was ok. I only gained 0.4lbs. The theory is that a diet breaks help reverse meta.boric adaptations. I am still tracking, rowing and focusing on protein but I have increased my calories to maintenance. We’ll see how it goes. My endocrinologist appointment was on Friday. She thinks my symptoms are mostly…

I am on a diet break for 2 weeks and @megan_smartiepants said she would excuse my weigh-ins. I am happy to post but it is a gain. Just let me know.

Happy for you and Aspen 🐶

I am going to sit out the rest of the month and focus more on nutrition and rowing

To continue my crazy week, today, I was offered a promotion to Director of Quality Improvement at my hospital. I knew my boss was moving on in June and I literally had a 30 minute conversation about possibly taking the role as an interim position when he left. I don’t even need to go out and buy mid-weight loss interview…

What’s your NSV? Immediately, my answer inside my head was negative. My weight is up and I am feeling bad so it’s easy to go there. But when I started this journey one year ago, I hated exercise and allowed myself to think I didn’t need it. That has slowly changed and my New Year’s goal and the habit that I am most trying…

@lindamtuck2018 - you are doing so good with the steps and inspire me to push myself even when I am not feeling my best @Poobah1972 - your home gym sounds like it’s really starting to come together. You will have to post some pictures when it’s all done. @Bluetail6 - those steps ... wow 🤩 @roz0810 - nice loss! Enjoy your…

@Megan_smartiepants1970 - what did the surgeon say about your pain? Do make sure to not keep the incision covered all of the time. It will heal better open to air. Get some loose sweat pants or a nightshirt. @Beautyofdreams - I read you blog story and what you posted above. I am so in awe of you resilience. @TheresaM787 -…
