I always hate that feeling of not being able to shower and shampoo my hair. Take it easy and get better.

QJB-sounds like you had a nice day yesterday. Good for you finding some interesting things to do the relieve your boredom.

Yesterday I did get down to the work gym and got a weight circuit in. However, I decided that instead of a weight circuit in which I complete all body parts each day to do a 3-day split body part workout. Mainly because I would be doing the same body parts 3 days in a row. So, I will start that today. Today is just wor****il my workout at yoga.

QOTD: I loved kindergarten. I remember when I started 1st grade I was like "what the heck, this isnt fun like kindergarten". I would say my college years were my favorite.

Accountability: good

Same meals as yesterday and the day before...

E: 60 min hot yoga, 30 min weightlifting

G'morning all!

Woopsie daisy, I forgot to post yesterday, I have fallen out of the habit of posting every morning. Hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year's. My holiday was great having the kids at home and visiting with friends. Things I did and enjoyed during the holidays

  1. Quality time with my kids
  2. The house full of noise and laughter not just with my kids but also with their friends. Is it weird that every time a door slammed I smiled?
  3. Typical holiday activities (Xmas in the park lights, ice skating, driving through neighborhoods and admiring the decorations and lights)
  4. Rewatching old favorite movies, board games where my kids proved again and again that they have gotten faster and smarter than me.
  5. Enjoying the people and festivities after the Covid 2 years hiatus
  6. Catching up with friends who have moved back to our area after 6-8 years in the Washington /Oregon area.
  7. Lots and LOTS of baked goods exchanges (my kryptonite)

Things I didn't do:

  1. did not log in any food
  2. did not workout at all
  3. did not stress about my food intake (sorta)
  4. did not say no to any kind of sweets

So putting the two categories on a balance sheet I still think the positives outdid the negatives. I just have to jump back on the wagon and repair the food damage I did during the last two-three weeks. I told my trainer to go easy on me this week because I hadn't done anything, but do you think she listened to me? I have a feeling she is punishing me.

QOTD: HS years were fun.

My meals yesterday (I am doing the egg fast for this week to jump start the low carb and cleanse from any sugar):

  • Bullett coffee
  • Egg loaf
  • Hb eggs
  • Egg soup
  • E: cardio & weight

Happy hump day!

Sounds like an amazing couple of weeks for you. Welcome back! Your trainer is helping you get back on the horse, maybe?

I have to ask...what is egg...loaf? :)

Oh, fascinating! Will have to try this. I've been experimenting a bit with low carb breads without a lot of success. Thanks for sharing!

I like it as a sub for French toast. I drizzle a little bit of my sf syrup on it and it's very satisfying.
