Default Absolutely Amazing April 2019 Daily Check-In & Accountability Thread

Greetings and welcome to our April 2019 weigh in/check in! Join us as we continue on our journeys to a healthier YOU. Spring is here so let's love on ourselves and accomplish our goals. While here we can shed some pounds & inches and share some great NSV's (non-scale victories). A new month is always a great time for a fresh beginning, and with the warmer temps now making a regular appearance nearly everywhere, it also holds much promise. What brings us to this thread are our efforts to get/remain healthy in a kind and supportive environment. But whether we lose or gain weight it is only one part of our life. What does your spring 2019 agenda entail? Are you a gardener itching to get poking in the dirt? Are you busting out new recipes that are lighter but still comforting? Do you find yourself moving more or at least have the impulse to use the extended daylight hours to your advantage? Is there an area of your home that needs attention? Maybe you're just trying to find some peace while you're juggling the respective pieces of your life. Nothing wrong with that! Regardless of what occupies your mind and your time let's use these thirty awesome days of April to be more mindful of our purpose and prioritize ourselves in healthy and positive ways. We are on this journey with a PURPOSE and doing it together - this is a place to chat, vent and/or to use just for the accountability

Come on in, join us, and meet some great people. If you're lurking and curious, jump on in and post at any time. Everyone's

Here you can:
~track your weight daily, weekly or however you'd like ... but do check in
~keep track of what you eat or didn't eat
~keep track of your water intake or lack of
~keep track of your exercise/other goals
~vent, rant ... express yourself or just chit-chat

We can and will ALL get closer to our goals AND hit them together

Hope to see you soon ....

Just getting in on this thread! My goal for April is 12 pounds again. At the end of this month I'll be out of "high risk" obesity and into "moderate risk" obesity, which is a weird milestone but hey, progress!

Curvy: Thank you so much for continuing this thread!

Hello, all! Last month was the first month in which I gained a significant amount of weight instead of losing since starting keto last May A big part of it may be water retention from muscle building (I dropped 3% body fat last month ), but a portion of it may also totally have been poor diet choices toward the end of the month. This month I will be focusing on hitting my macros, passing my hydration goal, and dedicating myself to my C25K program with an ultimate goal of running a 10k on Thanksgiving this fall (Turkey Trot!! ). Best of luck to everyone this month in slaying their goals!

After some serious whooshes over the last three days, I changed my monthly goal back to last month’s goal of 219. Today I plan to run, I’m on day one of week 2 of the C25K program. In two weeks I have my annual physical; my last one was before I started keto, when I still weighed-in in the 280s—I can’t wait to see my doc’s face when she sees me, she’s really awesome and actually advocates low-carb/keto to her patients (she’s one of the few who won’t advocate something unless she’s tried it herself and really does the research, which I really appreciate!). I hope everyone is having a great month so far!

Hi everyone April is already well underway and I realized I had yet to check in.

Thank you so much curvynotlumpy for keeping this monthly thread going.

RunningRedHead how are you enjoying the C25K program? I'm sure your doctor will be impressed by your progress so far and the C25K training can only help in getting you closer to your goals.

After finally being able to go on a long walk for the first time since last Fall last Sunday, I hurt my groin area (no clue how it happened) and I've refrained from walking all week (it was hard enough just having to walk within the store at work). It doesn't seem as sore today so after laundry is done, I'll try and walk and take advantage of this beautiful afternoon. My goal is to walk as often as I can this month. Hopefully I will sleep better and find some energy to do more, but walking is the goal.

Hope everyone has been having a great first week of April.

Martine: I'm so sorry to hear about your injury! I'm glad to hear it's not so sore recently, hopefully it was just a little strain and you can get back to those beautiful long walks with your Loki I'm liking C25K a lot so far. I've started it before several times and quit around the 3rd or 4th week because at my heaviest weight it was just way too much for my knees. I definitely still have some old sports injuries that are making themselves known, but I'm listening to my body and pushing when it's okay and pulling back when I need to

I'm all over the map so far this month with weigh-ins. I think I'm up a bunch the last couple days because I've eaten a few more carb-heavy things than usual, plus the water retention from working out. I'm considering a break from looking at the scale when I weigh in (still weighing in daily and evaluating the weekly average instead of getting caught up in the day to day fluctuations). I also need to focus on hitting my protein goals this week; I've been terrible with that lately I hope everyone is having a good month so far!

RunningRedHead hope you can pinpoint why the scale is all over the place this week. Though this latest number must be encouraging to see.

It is such a glorious, sunny and warm Spring day today that David and I went for a 3.9km walk at the park around the partly frozen lake and it was too much too soon, considering that I’m still dealing with groin pain. But the weather was so perfect that it was hard to not enjoy it.

I’m concerned about this groin injury because it’s been almost three weeks and I haven’t walked much other than at work and I see little improvement. I’ve started doing stretches a few times a day, I really hope that will do the trick and I won’t have to see my physiotherapist. Let’s just say that this is not an area of the body that I’m comfortable letting someone work on.

Hope everyone has had a good week with more to come
