Re: Getting Healthy Check-In
Goals? Lose 10-15 lbs; fit better in clothes.
How has your progress been this week? Last week because of AF and my ever-growing cyst (up to 8 cm on Thursday), I admittedly slacked off with the gym. Only fit in 2 workouts.
This week, I'm feeling better and back on track with my 430AM wake-up.
What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? Gym 4 days a week, sand volleyball on Fridays, some kind of fun activity on weekends.
Best part of your week? I submitted my application for a grant to help pay off a lot of my student loan debt. I was so anxious hitting that "submit final application" button, but so relieved to finally have it done with. Now, I just wait...
Worst part of your week? I was planning on getting a tattoo on Sunday to commemerate my little one's EDD, and then I remembered that I'm on a blood thinner right now to get ready for round 2, and had to cancel.
Guess that will have to wait until next year. Now, I'm stuck trying to figure out what to do this weekend instead... Probably going to post a thread to get ideas; sorry in advance for the XP.
QOTW: Definitely would head back to Kauai... Hike to Kalalau Beach (11 miles each way) and camp out for a couple of days. Sounds like heaven!
DE IVF ER - 12/2/2016 (17R/10F = 8 frosties); FET 1.0 (1/27/2017) - BFP 6dp5dt (EDD 10/16/2017)
Goals? Lose weight, feel/look better, be healthier
How has your progress been this week? Lost another 2lbs for a total of 10 in three weeks.
What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? Weight Watchers online. I need to get off my ass.
Best part of your week? My birthday is tomorrow!
Worst part of your week? We have three different friends with birthdays this week as well, which means a lot of eating/drinking.
QOTW: If you could go on an "active" vacation anywhere in the world, where would you go, and why? Probably something with hiking and camping, though an active vacation isn't really my thing. I prefer hotels and nice restaurants

TTC Since January 2011 - We have bad spermGoals? Lose 20 pounds to start and be more active.
How has your progress been this week? Our rowing machine was delivered and I've used it several times, but rowing after work is harder than I anticipated. I'm getting my step count higher, but again more work than I thought.
What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? Eating better, counting calories and moving more.
Best part of your week? I'm down 3 pounds!
Worst part of your week? I'm being laid off. I thought we could make it on DH's salary alone but ALL of our savings and fun money would be cut from our budget. We can't live like that forever, but if I don't find a job quickly we can make it work in the short term.
QOTW: If you could go on an "active" vacation anywhere in the world, where would you go, and why? (E.g., climb Mt. Everest, yoga getaway in Bali, etc...) I'm not really an active person, but I hear wonderful things about Costa Rica.
Goals? Lose 50 lbs
How has your progress been this week? So so.
What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? MFP, more water intake, cleaner eating, smoothies/shakes in the morning
Best part of your week? I have Friday off, and I finally got anew phone.
Worst part of your week? The cold weather. I think this is the longest winter ever!
