Terah Posted April 21, 2018 Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 I'm back! I had a dream about you guys last night, and I realized how I've missed you. I just sort of dropped out last challenges. No excuses, just life. I've learned a lot the past few months. I've previously mentioned "Life on Tellus". I've follwed her courses, participated in masterclasses and was active on her facebook forum. And the best part: I've succesfully implemented her techniques into my life: bye bye binges Using her techniques I've been able to actually stick to a diet I believe is healthy for me. I've also entered a Diet Bet to give myself extra motivation. So here goes Challenge #1: Eat 1200 kcal a day During PMS- and sharkweek I'm allowed to add the kcal my fitbit told me I burned by walking around. I need to keep listening to my body. If my energy gets too low, if I can't do stuff I normally could I need to re-evaluate this goal. Challenge #2: Intermittend fasting I start my fast after dinner, and break my fast at lunchtime. Again: while listening to my body. I've found I can eat this way pretty much all the time and have TONS of energy, but a few days a month my body needs breakfast. Challenge #3: Do strengt training 2/3 times a week I've got the fitbit coach app, which gives me workouts based on my fitness level. It is really great. It never askes me to do an actual pushup for example The workouts are between 20 and 30 minutes, so easy to fit into my schedule. And off course: I'll listen to my body. I will skip a workout if needed Exception: I get 1 day a week off of these goals. Just to keep my sanity. So if I really, really want icecream/fries/chocolate or other stuff that doesn't fit my kcal, I can have those that day. Let's do this! 2 Quote Doodlie for life, Pancake by choice Current Challenge Spoiler Challenge 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 Challenges 2017: 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 Challenges 2018: 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, Challenges 2019: 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 Challenges 2020: 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 Challenges 2023: 46, 47 Link to comment

Terah Posted April 21, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2018 Saturday I fasted, ate a little short of 1200 kcal and played sims2. It was a pretty good day My DietBet ends Friday, and I am still 0,5 kg short of hitting my goal. It is certainly doable, but I do have to hit my goals! 2 Quote Doodlie for life, Pancake by choice Current Challenge Spoiler Challenge 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 Challenges 2017: 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 Challenges 2018: 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, Challenges 2019: 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 Challenges 2020: 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 Challenges 2023: 46, 47 Link to comment

Terah Posted April 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2018 Monday I took my day off today, do no kcal counting or fasting. I chose today because it is our 10th wedding anniversary We celebrated by ordering sushi (eating it at home is so much easier with small kids than going out and they love sushi too). It was delicious. In the evening we watched Thor:Ragnarok. What a great movie! We created the cinema experience by adding m&m's And I did get a workout in this morning. It was a really great day 5 Quote Doodlie for life, Pancake by choice Current Challenge Spoiler Challenge 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 Challenges 2017: 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 Challenges 2018: 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, Challenges 2019: 36, 37, 38, 39, 40 Challenges 2020: 41, 42, 43, 44, 45 Challenges 2023: 46, 47 Link to comment

Terah Posted April 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted April 24, 2018 Tuesday The sharks hit me hard, but I took a couple of painkillers and went to dancehall and zumba class anyway. I'm sure I will regret this decision in the morning Fasting got done, but I made bad food choices that brought me over my kcal limit.
