💜 SEP 2019 CHALLENGE 💜



Recommended Posts

Day 2: catching up with a friend... does my hubby count, lol? We are busy with 2 teen girls that both have sports, music, etc. I plan to spend the day catching up with him, lol. We sit often have days that we can just hang and chat.

Squat challenge: I have been going to Orange Theory Fitness and LOVE it! If we don’t get the squats for today in my class, I will do them right after.

I ate pretty bad this weekend and feel so tired of bad food today! I plan to track all of my food and get my Water in today and I am just about to do my OTF class in 10mins. I’m at a point in my weight loss journey that I feel really good and people tell me how great I’m looking ... this makes me sometimes not be as on point with food as I need to be. I still want to lose about 20-25 pounds and need to track food everyday to do that. So thankful that this group was created! Have a great day everyone!

1. My personal goal:
Practice intermittent fasting throughout the month and get a better mastery over this new tool.

2. VGS on 2/6/19. Still losing. 80 pounds gone, 20-25 to go.

3. CW: 166.8 (taken last Thursday) BMI is 26.2

4. Will choose easy because the first half of this month is going to be beastly for me

5. Favorite flaw:

I enjoy eating on the same leftovers for days on end because it’s just easier that way. Ironically, even though I’d spent so much of my life MO, I’m not a foodie at all. Simpler is better.

Squats done.

Caught up with a friend yesterday.

Do I love or loathe exercise.. Depends on the day and the exercise. (Although I loathe strength training most days) I don’t dislike working out and being active now that I’m at a healthy weight. It’s much easier to do and I find myself getting up and doing things when I’m bored vs just watching tv.

I’m the old lady shooting hoops in my driveway now.

B-Side Question: Do love or loathe exercise ?*judgement free zone*
Squats done.

Side B question: Love or loathe exercise?

I like spin class A LOT! I miss it now as I heal from recent surgery. After a while, cycling becomes important for my mental health. It is the one area where I'm not someone's mom, wife, daughter, sister, Doctor etc. I'm just in my zone with some camaraderie with fellow spinners.

Do I love all other exercises? No. I detest muscle class but I'll make myself like it as I return to the gym and just maybe it becomes tolerable. I've read enough on this forum to know it helps a lot.

I can tolerate the treadmill, stair steppers, rowing but I don't LOVE them. Not sure if I'm making any sense 🤷‍♀️

Do I love or loathe exercise. I used to loathe it. Mostly because I never felt I got the feel good endorphins just pain and exertion. Pushing around a 153kg body is never fun.

Now I want to be hella more active coz I know I will feel good afterwards. At the actual time of exercise not so much 🤪

Awwww shucks thank you. I couldn't do it without you. I'd like to give a big shout out to my agent who made it all happen, and the director was a dream to work with. To my fellow nominees, this one's for you.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
