SoDakgirl weekly check-in
Started this once before and got de-railed when we moved. Turning 50 next year and want to be healthy and happy for many more years.
5'6" and 164.4 lbs. today. Exercise has been good; eating has been okay. Definitely need that piece of gum or glass of milk mid-afternoon just about every no-S day.

Re: SoDakgirl weekly check-in
Welcome back. It doesn't seem to me that a piece of sugar free gum would qualify as a snack to give a red mark? I've worked a few times in Watertown, SD. Loved their art museum.

Re: SoDakgirl weekly check-in
If you fly over S.D. at night, the lake at Watertown looks like a goldfish cracker from above. No, I am not counting the gum or even the milk as a red mark. Weight is actually up this week to 167.1. Disappointing but it's a long game, not a short game. I think this week I will focus on whether I am piling my plates too high, bit of a hoarding instinct. Exercise went really well this week. Got in a beautiful hike with my family yesterday and some rollerblading earlier in the week.
Re: SoDakgirl weekly check-in
Okay, back down from the 167 to 165.4. Not a big deal, but I am keeping track. Went off the rails one day this week and had 4 oreos after dinner on a no-S day, but oh well! Working on it every day. Exercise will get more challenging as the weather turns - until there's enough snow for cross country skiing!! Looking forward to that.

roller blading in the summer and x-country skiing in the winter! Nice!

Re: SoDakgirl weekly check-in
Thanks! Trying to get outside as much as possible. My work has been at home since March 13 and not going outside makes life feel a bit closed in.
And I went off the rails a bit last week! Had a big hearing for a client and worked evenings and just didn't have the extra gumption to exercise or say no to the sweets. But my weight was down a few pounds to 162.3 - go figure. Back on track this week with a great hike in about 25 degree weather yesterday.

Okay, new month, new chances to succeed! Halloween candy got me last week. Some good hikes in the books with a combination of snow and leaves on the ground, so pretty. Weight back up to 163.4. I will just keep on chugging away. Election day, covid cases skyrocketing in my state, kids in school 2 days a week and wondering whether to pull them out. Lots and lots of stress. The only thing to do is put one foot in front of the other.

Re: SoDakgirl weekly check-in
Hey there - hope you start to feel better. And yes, keep putting one foot in front of another! I am convinced that I need to focus on what I can control and let go or accept what is out of my control, as a method to manage anxiety in these troubled times. Easier said than done.
