Mern, you crack me up. The scale thinks you're someone else. I hope your back is OK; maybe I can send you healing energy form my acupuncture today?
Tori, I am not much of a water girl either but we gotta do it.
Glad you guys are here!!!

Okay, if Tori can sneak back in...so can I. And Tori, I think we need to do something like remind each other if we don't get on for more than a day.
I am to a point where I know what I need to do and am barely doing it. I am not really losing but more like maintaining my weight and my weight is up about 26-28 lbs from when I could proudly say that I lost 100lbs in the beginning of August last year. So here I am. Last week I walked 9.75miles on my lunch breaks. Would have been more but was in all day training session Friday so couldn't walk. Gotta get back to working out before work instead of being such a tired ass and staying in bed until the last possible moment. So here are my baby step goals for this week.
1. Water, lots of it
2. Walk 10 miles this week M: 2miles,
3. Planned food except dinner (since I'm not the cook)
4. Work out before work twice
5. Work out after work twice

April, welcome back!!!! So glad to see you. The walking is really good!!!
Jenn, what's up? I hope you feel better!!!
Epixi, I just noticed your post from the last thread. It really touched me that you looked fibro up. How caring is that? VERY. Wow. Thank you so much also for acknowledging how hard it is. I appreciate it more than I can say. And yeah, Armand Jr was a "pissa."

Goals:
Average under 2500 calories per day
Lift weights 3 days
Walk 3 days with my daughter
Don't drink any beer when I go play golf on Wed. That's a hard goal for me
I'm going to grocery shop after work today and get some decent food back in the house. Lack of healthy options at work and home was a big issue for me last week.
I'm excited about getting some excercise this week with my daughter, we both need it and it will be more fun with her going with me.

Goals...
1. Water, lots of it M: yes,
2. Walk 10 miles this week M: 2miles,
3. Planned food except dinner (since I'm not the cook) M: yes,
4. Work out before work twice M: No, T: Yes,
5. Work out after work twiceM: Yes,
Got in a late workout last night for about 30 mins and made myself do one this morning even though it was only 20 mins it was better than laying in bed doing nothing. I'm tired right now and feel like I could take a nap at any minute. I know I need to push through this to get back to the point where the exercise increases my energy instead of wearing me out. May not get to walk today because it is supposed to rain. May have to just go get my nails done instead....that's an even swap, right?
You guys are kind of quiet this week. What's everyone up to?

Hi Mern, April, Tori; welcome back
And hello to everyone else and thanks for getting us rolling yesterday. I kept meaning to post and stuff kept coming up, but not an excuse. At least I logged and kept to goals, mostly. I will keep them the same this week, pretty much, sticking back with the basics.
1. Keep cals below 1300. 793
2. Some form of exercise daily. Short session with weights
3. Say no at least once. Yes, and it was not pretty
4. Stay caught up with work to keep weekend reasonably free. So far, so good
5. Take vitamins and supplements. Forgot fish oil; others yes
6. Do something fun at least 4 times. Watched a bit of Netflix with the boy; rest of day = decidedly unfun.
Nagging things I never do:
1. Email coach.
2. Update Linked In profile.
3. Contact plumber.
