Re: Getting healthy check in

  • 1) Goals? To tone and feel confident in my bathing suit when we go to Florida at the end of the month.

    2) How has your progress been this week? I did okay. A little too much eating and too little exercise, but I'm chalking it up to the holiday weekend. I'm getting back on track today!

    3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? Clean eating and daily exercise. I'm going to have to push myself this week since we don't have Zumba all week.

    4) Best part of your week? Spending time with DH and our friends.

    5) Worst part of your week? Overeating while waiting to hear back from the RE on when our transfer is scheduled.

    QOTW: If you could switch bodies with any celebrity/athlete/etc., who would it and why? Carrie Underwood I think she just looks awesome and I would love her legs! ***pr related*** I would definitely like to be her since she announced yesterday that she was pregnant. She also took my idea for her announcement (not that it is totally original or anything). All my friends know about my girl crush on her, so I need to figure something new to announce with whenever that happens.

    Cinnabun and Junebug say, "Go Wildcats!"

  • 1) Goals?  Lose 50-70 lbs

    2) How has your progress been this week?  Not too bad.  We went to a BBQ yesterday, I picked a lot on healthy veggies, instead of the usual chips etc.

    3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)?  MFP, walking, better eating.

    4) Best part of your week?  4 day weekend

    5) Worst part of your week?  AF is a real b**** this month.

    QOTW:  If you could switch bodies with any celebrity/athlete/etc., who would it and why?  not sure. 
  • 1) Goals? - Get healthier by May/June 2015 (I would like to lose 50 lbs).

    2) How has your progress been this week? - I restarted after a really bad August, but I didn't gain anything, so that's good.

    3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? Walk every evening with the dog (once I lose a little weight I want to get back to doing 30DS as well). Track EVERYTHING with MFP.

    4) Best part of your week? Spending time with DH Sunday and yesterday. He had to work Saturday and has had to work most weekends, so it felt good to just chill on the couch with him.

    5) Worst part of your week? I was really hungover yesterday. Martinis are not for chugging. And are not for me.

    QOTW:  If you could switch bodies with any celebrity/athlete/etc., who would it and why? - Hmmmm...probably Jennifer Lawrence. She's healthy but still has some curves.  
    Anniversary
    Married: 10/13/2013
    TTC #1: Mirena removed 5/26/2015; DH - normal SA, me - diagnosed with PCOS 8/4/2016 - on Metformin;
    BFP - 10/29/2016!!!, EDD - 7/8/2017
  • 1) Goals? Lose 86lbs.

    2) How has your progress been this week? HORRIBLE. I gained 2 lbs. I knew it was coming though because I ate like crap all week and didn't exercise at all! It was just one of those weeks were I was craving super fattening comfort food and I gave into every craving.

    3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? Track on MFP. Walking 2 or 3 times a week.

    4) Best part of your week? Getting to spend all weekend with DH doing nothing.

    5) Worst part of your week? Gaining 2 lbs.

    QOTW:  If you could switch bodies with any celebrity/athlete/etc., who would it and why? Kate Upton for sure! She's fit but still has good boobs. I have pretty big boobs now but I've already lost some of them with just 17lbs lost. I'm kinda worried how small they will be when I lose all 86lbs. And yes, I know just how extremely vain that sounds, lol.

  • Hi ladies, I'm new around here and this board is just what I've been looking for!

    I'm Meghan, 29, married 1 year last month, working on getting healthy before TTC next year.

    1) Goals? I'm trying not to focus on the number on the scale yet, but am tracking everything in MyFitnessPal and focusing on getting in 5 servings of fruit and veggies in a day.

    2) How has your progress been this week? I feel pretty good about it! I tracked everything I ate, even when it wasn't ideal.

    3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? - MFP, 5 servings of fruit and veg a day, less takeout, walking the dog.

    4) Best part of your week? Having my favorite supermarket open back up after a company dispute - my grocery budget is very happy!

    5) Worst part of your week? Getting asked over and over again when we're going to have a baby by the same person. That. Sucked.

    QOTW:  If you could switch bodies with any celebrity/athlete/etc., who would it and why? Britney Spears, but only if it came with dance ability haha!

  • 1) Goals? Lose 20ish lbs, overall health

    2) How has your progress been this week? I totally fell off the wagon this week. Skipped the gym, drank too much, ate too many cookies...so so so bad.

    3) What is your "plan" (diet, workout regime, etc)? Running and making better food choices

    4) Best part of your week? Visiting with my mom's college friends. They are so fun, and I love being able to socialize with them as an adult. My mom and I have an incredible friendship now, and it's an honor to be inducted into their little group.

    5) Worst part of your week? Is it bad if I say today, my first day with the kids? It was too hot in my second floor classroom with no a/c. I was dripping by the end of the day. And teacher drama begins. I flippin' hate it so much.

    QOTW:  If you could switch bodies with any celebrity/athlete/etc., who would it and why? Heidi Klum. She's my girl crush.
    TTC #1 since Feb. '12. dx: "unexplained" IF

  • Thanks OceanHutt! And YES! I LOVE Market Basket, it's been so terrible not being able to shop there for 6 weeks, the price difference is incredible! It makes eating healthy so much more affordable. I agree, lots of people will probably start shopping there now, they got tons of free advertising! 
  • Also... Finally was honest with myself on MFP... And I'm planning on logging and tracking and getting back to the gym.... Dh started CrossFit this week and is kicking ass so I need to get myself together again :p
