    We are going to Disneyland in January with our daughters family. We went 5 years ago and after the 2nd day I had horrible shin splints and zero energy. Hoping this trip will be much better.

    After Covid I found it a little hard to get back into my workout routine. Last week I only got 2 workouts in…lack of energy. This week I’m doing better. I feel so much better if I workout in the morning…I have more energy, less brain fog, and I feel like I’m more organized.

    Just finished listening to the book “Eat Smarter” for the second time. Great information.

    Well…I survived Covid. I didn’t workout for a week, but it feels like much longer. Started working out again on Monday. Going slow because I still have some lingering congestion and I don’t want to overdue it and get sick again. Hope you all are healthy and happy!

    Hoping to get a walk in tonight with my boy. Shorter days leave me less time to get these walks in, but I’m sure going to milk DST for all I can before we “fall back”. My weekdays are pretty busy from my 4:30 a.m. workout to 8 hours in the office, and then chore time, so meal prepping on the weekends sure helps me out timewise. It’s so nice to…[Read more]

    I love this time of year for so many reasons! Weather is cooler, which makes working out a bit more comfortable. Still struggling to find a workout program that I really love, but I’m still working out most days of the week. Food is my friend, but some days I like it a little too much! Still learning to tame that lion. Hope everyone is having…[Read more]

    This entire year has been challenging when it comes to riding. Too cold. Too hot. Too windy. I have ended up just walking with the big guy for exercise. It doesn’t help that he can’t do more than just walk him so I justify “just walking” rather than putting a saddle on him and getting on. We enjoy the walk, but I know he would rather be able…[Read more]

    Started the Strong & Solid workout on Beachbody on Demand. I’m only in the first week. I mostly like the workouts, but there is a lot of jumping, which isn’t great for my old goat tyer knees, but I just make modifications. Stay tuned.

    Right now my motivation is to feel better!

    Have made a much better effort to make healthy food choices. Leg day always leaves me hungrier, but the key is the healthy food choices. I may not reach my weight goals because…hormones…but at least I won’t add to the problem.

    I’m on a roll! LOL Monday – Fitbit 30 minute strength training circuit; Tuesday – old school Shaun T Hip Hop Abs total body burn; today – 21 Day Fix lower fix. And every day I walk the dogs twice, along with barn chores. Hope you all are feeling great!

    Listened to a great podcast this morning by JJ Virgin called “Feel Great and Lose Weight After Menopause”. Only 17 minutes but full of great information. Her podcast is Ask the Health Expert. I found it on Apple podcasts, but she can also be found on other social media. Enjoy!

    Haven’t made very good food choices lately and my brain and joints certainly can tell. It’s amazing how food choices affect everything. Back to better food choices!

    Continuing to workout 5-6 days a week…except for last week, but I only missed one day, so I’ll call it a win. Weather is a bit cooler in the morning making it a little harder to get out of my warm bed, but working out warms me up and gets me ready for the weather outside. I love Fall!

    • Same here!! It’s still pretty hot here but it’s starting to cool finally! I’m so happy you did so well last week! I didn’t do that great. I got into the gym only a couple times and worked out doing ranch chores here but it wasn’t the way I like doing things. I’m disappointed

      • Our lives are busy. The good thing for us, is we have ranch chores that keep us active on a daily basis. I think as long as we don’t let disappointment derail our goals we can get back on track and continue on our journey to better health. 🙂

    No workout today…other than chores and walking the dogs. Working on meal/food prep for this week. Happy Sunday!

    Still sticking with my workouts but I sometimes feel I’m not getting enough of a workout. Cooler weather makes it harder for me to eat healthy food rather than comfort food. Still working on it.

    • I feel your pain on that! I’ve been struggling with keeping to my calories…Info it but it’s a challenge. The depression has been tough and I’ve been trying not to eat junk food. I’m having the issue with staying in my calories but not eating the right foods.

    Got up a little late so I just did a 20 minute Fitbit workout. It was ok. And I walked the dogs. Happy Monday!

    Walk with Scooter yesterday. Now that the weather has cooled off I’m looking forward to working with him more before winter sets in.

  • Connie posted an update in the group Group logo of WorkoutsWorkouts 2 years, 3 months ago

    Did a barre workout yesterday. Really challenged my balance. I think I’ll do it again to help with that problem. Did a Fitbit MMA workout this morning. Even though it was a little hard to catch onto its the first Fitbit workout I’ve actually enjoyed and I will definitely do it again.

    This week has been good…but it’s only Tuesday. Rededicated myself to healthy eating. So far so good! 😊
