I am worried I'll grow out of most of my clothes.</p> <p>Exercise wise I have done one &nbsp;treadmill interval session and one spin class so far this week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1553930 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 01:02:43 +0000 MsMary 1553930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had a great week last week -- scale was down a pound or so and exercise was good. I was on a little vacation this weekend and ate and drank more than usual and didn't get to the gym. Haven't been on the scale to assess the damage, but... onward! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1553919 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 00:44:26 +0000 MsMaven 1553919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First wedding weekend--gained three pounds, but considering how much more I ate and drank than usual, this isn't so bad.&nbsp;</p> <p>Coming home from a steamy hot Chicago AA served the most fabulous butter brickle ice cream ever. Didn't ask for brand. Otherwise that meal was relatively healthy.</p> <p>Back to healthier eating the rest of this week. Still having problems with a sore back, so exercising will be focused on alleviating that problem.</p> <p>It was a fabulous week, so I do not want to complain.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1553918 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 00:44:21 +0000 Diana 1553918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been pretty good food no exercise-wise lately. And I wore and felt ok in some shorts this weekend that were too tight earlier in the summer, so I think things are good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1553892 Wed, 09 Sep 2015 00:16:37 +0000 kerry 1553892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Back at work this week after having the summer off. Too tired to contemplate good habits! Did manage a healthy packed lunch today </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1553539 Tue, 08 Sep 2015 14:08:32 +0000 Carla 1553539@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A wonky right shoulder is causing me some grief, so I am avoiding swimming and biking for the moment. Running has been picked up, though I am doing it in the gym due to the extreme heat and humidity of the past weeks. Averaging 3-4 outings per week. Enjoying Yoga Immensly and getting in 2 sessions a week. Wish I could attend more! </p> <p>I am adjusting to the change in lifestyle since the move to southern Ontario a little over a year ago. The big challenge is the long commute making a work day 12 hours vs 9. Fortunately the hour commute is spent on a train - not a subway car, or in an automobiile. Gym time has been slotted in. Eating dinner at 7 pm vs 5:30-6:00 has exacerbated some gastro issues, but reducing pm carbs, and limiting snacking after dinner has helped - though not eliminated the problem. I am getting about 1-1.5 less hours of sleep in the pm, but do get in a snooze on the train. Sleep is interrupted and this may be due to perimenaupasal hormones.</p> <p>Weight the past 25 years was steady in the 150-155 range, with the exception of 2 pregnancies. During the year of the move I lost some weight and plateaued at 140. I have been this weight for 18 months +/- so don't anticipate that I will go back. (Body shape remains unchanged and only clothing alteration is bottoms in 8 fit better than 10.)</p> <p>Some good news! At eye check-up this week, prescription unchanged and pressure smack in the middle of normal! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1552802 Mon, 07 Sep 2015 02:48:40 +0000 Elly 1552802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I need to get moving-- hoping to ease into a 3x a week or more cardio routine, but that will take some doing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1552743 Sun, 06 Sep 2015 23:37:14 +0000 Sal 1552743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All okay here but a busy social schedule has taken a toll and I have a streaming cold. &nbsp;So skipped the gym this morning.</p> <p>Last week managed three workouts and in the weekend a light game of tennis and a walk with a friend.</p> <p>The weather here is teasing, cold and windy, but we want it to be spring!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1552726 Sun, 06 Sep 2015 22:35:01 +0000 kellygirl 1552726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to see you back, Shedev! I'm right there with you--still up a few although mine aren't from vacation. Managed my miles last week but still would like to figure out how to spread them out through the week a bit. Did my first kettlebell work out in forever today and it was exhausting. Am going to try doing that a couple of times a week again after work. See how that goes. Hope to shed those few extra pounds before it becomes skinny jean weather. I just tried a bunch of winter clothes on and found them a little snugger than I would like :P&nbsp;</p> <p>Hope everyone has a great week!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/healthy-habits-96#post-1552667 Sun, 06 Sep 2015 18:07:33 +0000 shedev 1552667@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I gained a little during vacation, but not as much as I thought I did. Now its just time to get back into my routine. Counting WW points has helped me in the past, so that's what I'm starting now. </p>
