Re: Getting Healthy Check-In

  • 1) Goals? 


Lose 100-125 pounds in no set time frame

    2) How has your progress been this week? 


Pretty good

    3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? 

Metformin daily, eating healthier and eating less

    4) Best part of your week? 


I got to tighten my belt one notch, and I was pretty excited about that!

    5) Worst part of your week? Finding out that I probably won't be able to start my job until March because it will take 3 months for Medicaid to credential me as a provider.

  • @madeline10L‌ Yes, I can't move until I can bill insurance. I'm not sure when that will happen (maybe Feb, March or April).

    I found out today that I will have to be in Columbus for two weeks next month, so I will get a small taste of the snow. I will have to come back down to GA after my training to wait until I can start work in Ohio.

    Ugh! Getting credentialed is a super annoying process. Once you do it the first time though, when you change jobs, it seems to get easier. GL! Hopefully, "they" get it done faster and surprise you!

  • 4) Best part of your week? I got my first unsolicited weight loss compliment from my DH last week about my weight loss."You're looking skinny." Haha it's the little things.

    Nice! ;) How was tennis today?

    1) Goals? 


Fit better into my clothes and lose about 15 or so lbs. 

    2) How has your progress been this week? 


Good! Just keep trucking... Fitting in the time in the gym and eating pretty good. The biggest thing that MFP has shown me is the crazy amount of sodium in everything! Trying hard to cut way back on that, but I still seem to be slightly over everyday. Can't imagine how high it was when I wasn't paying attention! 

     3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? 


P90X meal plan/decreasing sodium, weight training 4 days a week, cardio 2 days. 

    4) Best part of your week? 


 Submitted my final project for the last of my classes for a post-Master's cert in Positive Behavior Support. No more school for me for at least 5 years, when I plan to head back for my PhD. 

    5) Worst part of your week? Getting no sleep Sunday and Monday nights to work on above project since I'm a major procrastinator and waited till Sunday afternoon to start. Further proof that I shouldn't be in school again for a long while. :) 

    QOTW - What's your favorite brand of athletic apparel? I love my yoga pants and tri-blend tee's from Victoria's Secret.

    ETA... Stupid iPad
