Getting Back in Shape

[Space_Karen]

Thursday - dug an invasive tree out of the ground. 2 to 3 hours of digging around and below the root system with a pickaxe coupled with shearing roots off the base with an axe.

Friday - dug a trench for a raised bed. 2 hours of dig time.

Saturday - rest and recovery day.

Today - light work.

I need some motivation

I just went ahead and started. After that the rest was downhill and I had a great workout.

Back up to 10 pushups at a time!

If I could, Id walk outside every day. But with a baby and a less-than-walkable neighorhood, its not always possible. I tend to park in the back of parking lot to get extra steps in.

Today I really feel like moving and exercising. I can do a lot at home because I don't have any neighbors below any more. I enjoy workout dances so I might do that today.

I got the results of my MRI today. There is a 65% chance that I have prostate cancer. I have a biopsy on the 12th.
Even if I have cancer I am going to workout and reach my goal of losing 100 pounds. I am halfway there now.

I walked two hours on the nature trail today. Ive been praise dancing and practicing pushups about three days a week. Im twenty pounds away from my goal weight.

I did a weeks worth of cardio workout in 1 hour yesterday, after I walked into a spiderweb.

The visual I got from this was priceless! Lol

Fill half the plate with veggies

Park in the back of parking lots

Intermittent fasting

Not having junk food in the house

Spoonful of peanut butter

Patience/seeing things long term

I had the biopsy Thursday and they told me not to do anything strenuous for a few days so I can’t workout. I’m going to resume working out Wednesday. I need to lose 6 pounds by next Saturday to meet my goal. Really cutting back on food this week.

I got the results of the biopsy, no cancer. Thanks to everyone for the prayers

My weight loss has hit a plateau. I’m going to try cutting carbs now. I’m halfway to my goal and I’m going to lose another 50 pounds in 6 months.

Used to be. Trying to get it back. Maybe I will post before and after pictures when I reach my goal

More on step one

I want you to think about your future self. Who will you be in 5 years? In 10 years? Think about what you were like 10 years ago. You’ve changed. How much will you change in the next 10 years?

Update weight loss​

October 14, 2023
Weight loss - In April I set a goal to lose 100 pounds from 4/21/23 to 4/21/24.
It was easy to remember the date because 4/20 is marijuana day and I started the next day.
I weighed 340 pounds. On 4/21 when I weighed I was 336.
I needed to lose 96 pounds to reach my goal. That worked out to 8 pounds a month.
Goal. Actual. Date
340. 336. 4/21
328. 319.2. 5/21
320. 314.2. 6/21
312. 299.6. 7/21
304. 291. 8/21
296. 285.4 9/21
288. 285 10/21
280. 280 11/21
In November I got a respiratory infection and couldn’t train and got off my diet so I had to adjust my goals
12/1 290. Actual
1/1 285. 285
2/1 280. 285
3/1 275
4/1 270
5/1 265
6/1 260
7/1 255
8/1 250
9/1 245
10/1 240

02/16 Weight lifting is going really well. I’ve gained an inch in my arms and an inch in my calves from all the walking I do at work. I’ve lost 8” from my waist.
I started having a protein shake when I feel like binging and lost 7 pounds in a few days. My weight has gone up and down a few times lately so it’s good to be getting back on track with my goals.
I’m still having knee pain and leg pain. I had RFA 3 weeks ago but it hasn’t worked as well this time. They do the other side next Thursday.

Motivation; Turn your but around

What is it that keeps you from reaching your goals? You were going to workout but you weren’t motivated today. You weren’t going to eat junk but you couldn’t resist. You were going to put money in savings but you wanted ...

Fenugreek is great for expelling mucus from the body. Just cut down on white flour and dairy to keep mucus at a minimum.

Can't stress enough, stretch before and after a workout. Drink lots of water too. This helps reduce after workout pain.

And don't eat before a workout,or immediately after.
