This stuff is amazing. Is it yogurt or a dairy snack and what is the difference?
Starting this all over again. I gained 23 lbs whilst in quarantine. Fully vaccinated and no excuses now. So here we go.
Normally I eat 900 to 1200 calories a day and still I’m not losing weight even with going to the gym five days a week...you realize something is broken and normally it’s your metabolism. So this is me trying to piece it back together. It’s hard guys. Making carbs a part of my diet is painful and too good to be true.

Who is up for a 2020 Habit Challenge?
Step #1:
Download your favourite Habit tracking app.
I recommend:
OR set up a journal/set of papers to track your habit(s) on.
Step #2:
Pick a healthy habit. Just one.
You can choose to tell us about it or keep it to yourself, either way, be honest with it. Cheating your habits only cheats yourself. I’ll support you no matter what.
We will be monitoring this habit for 21 days, doing our best to complete the task each day. In 21 days, if you feel that your habit has indeed become a habit then add a second habit. You decide this. No one else. If you miss some days but still feel that you’ve made it a habit then add another. If you feel that you need more time, monitor the habit another 21 days.
FYI: This is NOT a competition with anyone but yourself.
(1 new habit every 21 days = 17 healthy habits by the end of the year!)
Using various sources, I’ve come up with 25 Healthy Habits. You can choose from this list or create your own, as long as they’re healthy for you and assist you towards a goal you may have.
Get more quality sleep or sleep between 7 - 9 hours and then make your bed
Waking up when you intend too, no pressing snooze or turning off your alarm and falling back asleep
Brush teeth in the AM or PM (sometimes we forget one or the other)
Take vitamins/medication
Drinking coffee/tea black (no creamer, no sugar or sugar substitute, cinnamon yes)
Eat vegetables at every meal
Actually eat your fruit before it goes bad
Drink more water, at least 64, (your BW in lbs divided in half is the oz your body needs MIN. eg. 160 lbs = 80 oz min.)
Spend 20 minutes tidying (set a timer, pick stuff up and put them in their ‘home’, clear off surfaces, throw dirty laundry in the hamper or whatever)
Meditate (for however long you need/want to)
Spend time outside (for however long you need/want to)
Don’t watch TV or use electronic devices during meals (take the picture then put the phone away, unless it’s a video chat date)
Stretch and improve your flexibility (just after waking up & after a workout or when your body is warmed up, using a yoga mat or the bed works great)
Make a list of things you’ve been putting off that take less than 20 minutes (are you able to break bigger things down into bite sized pieces?) Spend 20 minutes a day doing 1 productive thing from that list. (eg. booking an appointment, or just finding the paperwork for it, tiny baby steps)
Cook and prepare lunch (or any meal) instead of relying on processed/already-made foods
Clean your kitchen and dishes after each meal or make sure they’re done before bed
Go a day without doing a bad habit (eg. smoking, biting nails, swearing, saying sorry for no reason etc.)
Compliment someone every day
Put your laundry away every day (dirty clothes in the hamper/washer, clean clothes in their spots, no clothes on the floor or draped over chairs etc.)
Moisturize (and remove your makeup) before going to bed
Keep a journal & write in it every day (anything you want! How your day was, what you did, what you saw, what you experienced, what you appreciated, goals, ideas etc.)
Floss (most of us don’t, cuz it sucks, especially if you have a permanent retainer)
Have a no spending day (you’ll think extra hard about spending money if you have a goal not to every day, bills do not count, this task is for WANTS not NEEDS)
Pick an exercise to do daily as a challenge like planks (have a minimum time), pull-ups, squats (have a minimum amount), walk (or be active) for 30 mins (but please don’t do a hardcore workout every day, your muscles need rest days in order to actually BUILD the muscle)
Take up a hobby and do a lil bit of it every day (eg. knitting, writing, sewing, crocheting, running, walking, photography, a musical instrument, singing, dancing, drawing, any kind of art really)
Pick one and no matter what, do it January 1st.
This means you must be realistic with yourself.
Most of us will be hungover January 1st, so pick something you’ll be able to do still. Start with the easiest one. I’ve ordered these in kind of a way that goes from morning to night-ish so maybe start with something that will help your morning routine that way you set your day up with a win.
No need to pick ALL the habits right now (although, you can if you want) because right now we are just focusing on 1 habit.
I will be checking in on y’all via Tumblr message unless you post about your habit (#2020 habit challenge) then I will be commenting with my support♥
Check in dates:
January 1 > January 21 January 22 > February 11 February 12 > March 3 March 4 > March 24 March 25 > April 14 April 15 > May 5 May 6 > May 26 May 27 > June 16 June 17 > July 7 July 8 > July 28 July 29 > August 18 August 19 > September 8 September 9 > September 29 September 30 > October 20 October 21 > November 10 November 11 > December 1 December 2 > December 22
Step #3:

Me, when I'm on target with healthy eating: I'm gonna get there
Me, when I skip working out because I'm too tired/sore: I'm gonna get there
Me, when instead of one treat, I eat four: I'm gonna get there
Me, when I can't sleep at night because my mind is bursting with motivated plans: I'm gonna get there
Me, when my weight goes down cause I've been so on point: I'm gonna get there
Me, when my weight goes up because fluctuations and plateaus are a bitch: I'm gonna get there
Me, when I sleep in too long: I'm gonna get there
Me, when I take my measurements to check my progress: I'm gonna get there
Me, when I find time to sneak in an extra workout: I'm gonna get there
Me, when a workout seems harder than it did yesterday: I'm gonna get there
Me, when I make my tea: I'm gonna get there
Me, when my body manages what it couldn't before: I'm gonna get there
Me, when I look at the mirror, on good image days and on bad image days: I'm gonna get there 😊
Seeking comfort in discomfort
Whenever you go through change, be it good or bad, it will involve leaving what is known, familiar, comfortable, for what is unknown, new, uncomfortable. But if you want change, an authentic pivot, than discomfort can be your guide. It will let you know when you have let go of the side of the pool and drifted to where your feet cannot touch. Therefore those who truly want change, should seek and embrace discomfort, not run from, avoid or numb it. Embrace the journey and feel expectant, because something new is coming, a change
Our new baby.
After I broke my trainers band a few weeks ago and then proceeded to wear it around my head as a trophy, he bought two heavy duty bands and had me doing crab walks wearing both of them on Saturday. Despite what my facial expressions might show, it was was a walk in the park 👍
At the end of my session on Thursday, I was pulling the weights plus Alyssa on the bench when a girl started talking to my trainer about how she had been watching me train and it looks like I've lost weight. And then on Saturday, Mark extended our session and we did an hour of resistance training followed by 20 mins of boxing and he told me what the girl has said and that he thinks I could become a role model in the gym. That left me a little speechless and I still don't know what to say about it but it definitely makes me happy
Tumblr Book Club
Week 5 - Healthy Eating. Supplemental Tools. MIndless Eating
Note: Sending this post early in the week, to allow you to get the book if you are interested.
In this week’s healthy habits - I am going to Introduce you to one of my favorite books on Diet and Nutrition, “Mindless Eating, Why We Eat More Than We Think” By Dr. Brian Wansink. The book looks at the psychology of eating and all of the hidden reasons we eat more than we should.
My Psychologist suggested I read this book a few years ago, when I was struggling with mindless and emotional eating. With its help, I identified several issues I was having and developed strategies to overcome them. Check out this video for a good overview of this book.
As I prepared for this week’s post, I remembered there were several people had expressed interest in having a Tumblr Book Club. I wonder if there might be people interested in doing that with this book?
The book is about 250 pages, divided into 10 chapters. I am thinking we do 1 chapter per week. (We could go faster, but we are all busy, so 25 pages sounds good to me.)
Chapter Schedule
1 - 11/4
2 - 11/11
3 - 11/16
4- 11/18
5 - 11/25
6 - 12/2
7 - 12/9
8 - 12/16
9 - 12/23
10 - 12/30
This just happens to match up with wrapping up by the end of the year and end of FMLS 90.
If you are interested.
Reblog this post and let me know you are in
Get the book before 11/4
Reach a chapter each week and make a post on your blog. You can put whatever you want, but I will probably do a brief chapter summary and highlight any of the things that really speak to me.
Tag your post fitblr book club
Follow the tag and interact with others reading the book.
I need to reread this book, as I have slipped in some of my habits - so I probably am going to do this regardless of how many people join in, but it would be awesome to do it together.
Let me know if you are interested!
You do not need to be doing FMLS90 to participate.And if you are already doing FMLS90, you do not need to do this - as with all things, only join in if you want to.
Affiliate Link - If you get the book through this link, I get a tiny little kickback which goes to help defer the costs of my podcast hosting.

Today we’re doing a 𝘞𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘜𝘱 𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘸!!
I alwayssss advocate for a little movement every day, but staying active on days when you are going to be sitting a lot is SO important. Our bodies were not made to sit all day, we evolved to be active humans y’all! Getting the blood flowing and heart pumping a little before you have to sit for awhile is the best way to stay BALANCED, and I’m sure your booty will thank you 😆
