I left my electronics in my room most of the time, so while I did walk, I have no idea! How was Barcelona? It seems like it would be really lovely.. Barcelona was great! I managed to find some screaming good deal tickets so we decided to head over and spent about 10 days around Barcelona, Girona and Cadaques. It was beautiful and there was so much to see. We ended up walking over 8 miles on a single day! I would highly recommend making the trip! 2 Quote "We will be the gods we choose to be, not those who have been" - Kratos (God of War 2018) Current Challenge | Previous Challenges: 3 2 1 Active Quests: 17% body fat: ⏹️ 18% body fat: ✅ 30 Days: ✅ 14 Days Intermittent Fasting: ✅ 7 Days Intermittent Fasting: ✅ 200 pounds: ⏹️ 205 pounds: ✅ 210 pounds: ✅ 20 Unassisted Pull ups: ⏹️ 14 Unassisted Pullups: ✅ 8 Unassisted Pullups: ✅ Link to comment

Snarkyfishguts Posted March 11, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 244 this morning. It's okay. I ate a lot of restaurant food this week, I didn't exercise as much, and I was really stressed out. I didn't take very good care of myself this week and I knew it. It was a choice. Next week, I'll make healthier choices, and the numbers will go down. 1 Quote Link to comment

Snarkyfishguts Posted March 19, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 19, 2022 Sitting tight at 244. I'm going to eat better next week, and exercise more. I'm going to push to get under 240 this month, and dammit it will happen. I see you 238, and I'm coming for you. 1 Quote Link to comment

Snarkyfishguts Posted March 25, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2022 240.8 today. At this rate, I'm going to make my end of the month goal of 238. I'm really happy with my diet and exercise. I'm eating more vegetables, and I'm exercising every day. Neither is taking a lot of time and energy from me. Also, I feel like as a family, we're working together really well to manage the house (and Dad). Everyone is pitching in and we're all tired, but not so wiped out that we can't function. It feels like we're past the worst of it, and moving forward nicely. That's really helping against a lot of emotional eating. This weekend, my brother and family are coming over and we're going to make pasta together! I'm really excited for this. It should be chaotic and exhausting and a lot of fun and I am going to drink wine afterwards. This is the year I get into the 100's. I'm determined. But first. 238. and wine. <4 see you next week. 3 Quote Link to comment

Looking at the forecast, we're going up to low 50's next week, so that's something. This week will be cold. We may not get a lot of blooms this spring. I can see myself planting a lot of annuals Quote Link to comment

Snarkyfishguts Posted March 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2022 I went for a walk today because the sun is out and it's above freezing and omigosh, it's been a week or so since I went for a walk and my whole body was just suffering: "Why are we moving like this? Omg is there enough air? I feel like we're not getting enough air. This is so fast. Is there a tiger behind us? OMG ARE WE GETTING EATEN? Bitch, I just looked behind us and there is no tiger, why are we walking? Omg, WHY ARE WE SO FAT? Everything is heavy. These shoes are okay. Wait, wait, I think one shoe has more padding than the other. How about I make everything hurt? EVERYTHING HURTS" OMG LUNGS. WHY DO THEY BURN? IS the world on fire? No. just our lungs. We've been walking for HOURS, PLEASE STOP BEFORE DEATH CONSUMES US" I went for a ten minute walk today. Clearly need to do THAT more. And also, did not drink enough water.

I tried a few years ago but I didn't do it well and the bunnies ate it or something. I also saw some really pretty flower but I don't know what it was. It looked like a bleeding heart but was purple. Oh, and some blazing stars, and some lavender. Good job on the walk. At least you had some engaging dialogue to keep you company, even if it was internal. 2 Quote Race: Amazonian Ogre Princess | Class: Ranger | Profession: SuperHero | Affiliation: Doodlie and Pancake for Life Respawn Challenge Arcs: 2021 | 2022 I am not saying I am Wonder Woman.

Snarkyfishguts Posted April 8, 2022 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2022 243. Going back in the right direction. I'm going to take some time off from getting weighed. I'll weigh in at the end of the month, but I feel like I'm just running out of steam with daily living, especially with my folks. I feel like I need a vacation, and what I need is to just take care of the things that aren't working and figure out what does work instead. 1 Quote Link to comment
