Squats 10x45 3x75 5x5 * 120 These felt pretty good today which was encouraging. OHP I was supposed to do 68 lb today but we don't have the fractional weights for that so I tried 70lb. I was able to get a couple but I knew there was no way I was going to be able to get my 5 x 5 at that weight so I dropped down to 65 pounds.…

Nice job on your bench PR, you made it look easy. You'll get that deadlift next time.

5x5 @ 85 for bench. These felt good which was encouraging because I've been stuck at 85 for a few weeks. 5x5 @ 85 for rows. I think I'm gonna deload and try to work on form because I'm just not able to do them with goid form at that weight. 1 hour power yoga. 5x5 @ 115 for squats. I was supposed to do 120 but I couldn't…

Pulled 225 lbs on my deadlift today. That's a PR for me.

Not necessarily pretty but I pulled 225 lbs. today and I'm excited about that. https://photos.app.goo.gl/TcuCPoKfnLFEYo0D2 My over head press went well today. I did 5 sets of 6 at 65 lb. I was supposed to do 66 lb but we don't have the fractional weights for that so I just did an extra rep each set. Squats are still a…

My kids are more willing to try things when they've helped grow it or cook it. Your boys are old enough to be in the kitchen with you making dinner. My daughter also likes to play the game where we blindfold her and give her foods to try and she tries to identify them (my very picky eater son will not try this game though).

My son had trouble gaining weight as a baby (was completely off the weight chart) and it can be really stressful. I went to a lactation specialist who had me add a little bit of butter to the things he ate and he started gaining. If baby's lack of weight gain is stressing you out, this could be something to try. You've…

Back at it today after 3 days of doing nothing. For some reason there were a lot of people at the gym today and so I had to work around them today. And there is this one guy who does his entire routine in the one squat rack that the gym has. He does his overhead press there and today he was doing some kind of weird reverse…

I'm same height and weight as you and I'm losing on 1650 calories

Home with a sick kid today so no gym for me.

Don't factor in your exercise. I'm also a stay at home mom and I have mine set to lightly active but my kids are older and I'm not chasing them around like I used to but I'm still up and moving a lot cleaning the house, etc.

I can do regular push-ups again, without having to modify them.

I'm 5'6, 37 years old, and have 10-15 lbs to lose. I do HIIT for an hour 2 times a week and lift heavy 3 times a week. My calories are set at 1650 (to lose 0.5 lbs per week) and I eat about 1/2 of my exercise calories back. I'm steadily losing following those set calories.

I struggled with depression several times in the past, it runs in my family. With my first bouts I was able to control it with vitamins and herbal supplements. But, I eventually needed to get on medication in order to feel normal again. I started with Wellbutrin as that is what my mom had taken so my doctor started me on…

I couldn't keep up and the trainer yelled at me a couple times, but I was there doing my best. And yay for cute new leggings.

My gym was having a bunch of Halloween specials today and one of the specials was that you could take free classes that you normally have to pay for. So I did the fit camp class which is basically an interval style boot camp type of class. I'm not used to much cardio so the cardio kicked my butt. I think I'm going to…

Well today sucked. I did my warm-ups on squats at 45 lbs and then 75 lb. But, then I only did 4 sets of 5 at 120 lb and I just couldn't get the last set. Bench press was not great either. I did one set at 90 lb and then did my other four sets at 85 lb but they were really difficult and I needed help from my spotter on the…

Squats 10x45lb 3x75lb 5x5 115 lb Th then I thought I would see if I could get 135 pounds. I wanted to be able to put the big girl plates on so I did and I was able to get 1x135lb. It wasn't pretty but it happened. OHP I was supposed to do 62 pounds for overhead press today but my gym doesn't have anything smaller than 2.5…

Started with bench press today. I did my warm up and then kept the weight at 85 lb, same as last time since I barely was able to do it last time. I got my 5x5 sets in and it was a little easier than last time. I'm going to continue with 85 lb until it's a little easier and then I'll move up to 90 lb. Two of the regulars…
