Hello Everyone, this week has been busy and then not busy all at the same time
. On Tuesday I went to take the dog a walk but got 10 mins in and had to turn back because of the driving rain and wind. So I decided to come home and go on a housework spree for an hour which burned a good 490calories
Ill keep that in mind and do that more often
. Then the gym again for an hour on Tuesday night. Yesterday was such bad weather, we have a storm brewing just now, when you live down the beach, you better only need to leave for essentials
, so today I will do some home workouts as I have my nieces Confirmation tonight at the church. Tomorrow might be a double workout day I think.
Anyway... less of the bore..... I came down to 273.6 which was a new low... but this morning I have went up half a pound for some reason. Not sure if I maybe didn't drink enough water yesterday when dinner was a little salty. But I gotta work on through it.
Ruby I understand completely, January was very difficult for me to lose after Xmas with a family event or Birthday or something going on every weekend. It has only really been in the last 10 days or so that I have been able to get back on track. I also have stopped allowing myself to have a "cheat" meal. Instead on a Friday night I share with my mom a Gluten free pizza at 400 calories, I then have a small portion of fries that are about 150 calories. So for 550, I feel like I am cheating because I have pizza, but it fits in with my daily and weekly calorie totals, so I don't see the horror on the scale the next day. It works for me just now, doesn't mean it always will
. Hope you are able to find something that works for you.

swimming for 40 mins? is that doing lengths? I did 20 lengths in 30 mins last week and I barely had the strength to pull myself out of the pool
. I would love to be able to keep going for 40 mins. My steps are up and down, one day I will hit 12,000 and the next ill barely hit 4,000
I just have such random workout days. When I hit the gym I don't do cardio, so I barely hit 2,000 steps just walking from weights to weights :weights:.
Living Ohh noo! Phantom pains. My mum is waiting on surgery to have hers removed, she had no idea she had a problem until one night at like 2am, she called me from my room thinking she was having a heart attack. Doubled in pain, sweating like an SOB and struggling to breathe. I really hope that something is triggering them so that you can find relief. Hope you feel better s that you can go out and enjoy the weather.
Echo Well done on making a starting point, now onto the rest of your journey. I was 323lb last January, I'm now just .6 away from 50lbs lost which is a little behind schedule, but it took me a while to realise that stress makes me maintain weight
so now I'm playing catch up after dealing with some stresses. If I can do it, you sure can too
