I do need to calculate my lean mass to see if it's enough. I,m glad you are getting more rest.</div><div><br /></div><div>Ms Maven, woohoo. Bet you are rocking those white jeans.</div><div><br /></div><div>Runcarla, yeah for fruit.</div><div><br /></div><div>Helen11, yeah, it can be tough. I woke up 2 hours after I hit the bed this morning. I got sunburned on the back of my neck over the weekend. My motivation for to go put a bunch of weight on top of the burn to do squats was near the bottom of the barrel. I gave myself a little pep talk and went to the gym.</div><div><br /></div><div>Qfbrenda, great logging, I,m really consistant with that too.</div><div><br /></div><div>Style fan, I'm so glad your feet are on the mend.</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-718#post-1697738 Tue, 19 Jul 2016 20:54:12 +0000 Style Fan 1697738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I continue to do Yoga 5 times a week.&nbsp; The weather has cooled down so I hope to start walking again.&nbsp; My feet seem better.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-718#post-1697720 Tue, 19 Jul 2016 20:30:43 +0000 qfbrenda 1697720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last week went well as far as tracking my food. There were days I ate too much, but I still tracked it all. I plan to continue with that, hopefully seeing some weight loss eventually. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-718#post-1697373 Tue, 19 Jul 2016 11:39:10 +0000 Helen11 1697373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shedev, that's a great goal to do something for your fitness every day. I imagine it's harder to keep up the motivation when you're on a different sleep schedule to most others. You're having a great week!<br /> I know I need more sleep, too, Anne. I think I will look for a fitness tracker as a Christmas present. Sounds like it's helpful for keeping you on track.<br /> Ms Maven I bet you rock those jeans! I was surprised something eats lantana. The Australian version is a weed and a pest , though the little flowers are pretty.<br /> Carla, your schedule alternately inspires and exhausts me !<br /> My plan this week is to do a 30 day shred workout each morning that I won't be able to get out for a walk. One down, 3 to go! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-718#post-1697270 Tue, 19 Jul 2016 02:53:00 +0000 Carla 1697270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy with my week - 3- 5 K runs, 2- 2000m swims, 2- 30K bike rides, 1 weight training session (2 days had noon and night workouts. ) A little too much ice cream early in the week, but then switched over to fruit. DS#2 and I have been going through 1 watermelon and one cantaloupe per week, shared, by way of post workout snack. Got some local peaches and raspberries this week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-718#post-1697258 Tue, 19 Jul 2016 02:42:23 +0000 MsMaven 1697258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Doing better this week. I got over my craving for sugary treats. &nbsp;Did exercises on schedule and my aching back is quite a bit better. I remembered to put on sunscreen before I went outside most days--I've been lax about it--I go out early in the morning to check on things--something ate my lantana and all the lobelia--rabbits I am sure. So I get carried away and stay outdoors working in the yard and forget the sunscreen. I've had too much skin damage to be so careless.</p> <p>And today I'm wearing a pair of white jeans I bought last year and haven't worn this year because they were too tight in the waist and too nice (see Angie's blog post from today.) Well, they fit and I wore them all day. Another week like this past one and I should be able to wear everything in my closet.&nbsp;</p> <p>I have morning stiffness now, which I don't like. It gets me down and makes me feel old. Then I think about all that happened this last week and reflect on how incredibly happy and lucky I am to live in this time and this place. So many people around the world wake up with so much worse problems than morning stiffness.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-718#post-1697242 Tue, 19 Jul 2016 02:15:21 +0000 anne 1697242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well done on the strong lifts!&nbsp; How much protein&nbsp; are you eating now?</p> <p>(And I've just looked up Krav, after seeing you mention it several times on this thread. Sounds serious!)</p> <p>I'm working on getting my 10000 steps a day (I bought a fitbit recently). Generally I haven't acheived it unless I've walked at lunch or on&nbsp; a shopping day.</p> <p>I'm working on a programme from my physio, with walks, walk/jogs, my weights at the gym, and daily strength exercises. I do well with someone telling me know to do! I had a great walk on Sunday that I wouldn't have done if it wasn't on the programme!</p> <p>I'm also working on getting enough sleep, which I'm now tracking on said fitbit. I think I'm improving&nbsp; as gauged by less falling asleep at my desk! Last Friday night I actually managed to wash up that night and even put away some clothes - that level of activity is often beyond me by Friday, though it was helped by not having to drive the kids around.</p> <p>But my average is less than 8 hours and is boosted by weekend totals - I need to work on going to bed earlier, which has been particularly hard recently as the kids have been on school hols and going to bed late. </p> <p>Food was pretty indulgent on the weekend, as the DDs are getting into cooking while they have more time!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-718#post-1697218 Tue, 19 Jul 2016 01:38:59 +0000 shedev 1697218@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a great week for stronglifts. 4 sessions and I'm really progressing well. Krav wasn't as good. So far this week the RNC is creating traffic nightmares in Cleveland. I'm mostly on a rest day, but I'm trying to do something toward my fitness every day so I did a little yoga.<br />Food was good. I'm working on increasing my protein. </p>
