Accountability Group 6 years, 4 months agoIs it just me or do you crave chocolate like no other when the stress hits the fan….? I’m dying right now… brushing my teeth… walking around the building….
-
I use that trick too sometimes – brushing your teeth to help get over cravings haha. I’m kind of the opposite – I want chocolate and sweets when I’m relaxed.

Accountability Group 6 years, 4 months agoIt’s been a long but good day! I was able to get a 70 min total workout in 😊 half was walking/ jogging and half was body weight leg workout. I have been getting better, but I truly struggle with being too competitive with myself. I need to remember I don’t have go 100% or 0%. I really struggle with walking vs running, taking more time to do cer…[Read more]

Start where you are, do what you can, right??
-
Haha I know it, but it’s been different knowing vs doing. That’s now changing.

I can relate! It’s hard when you are competitive – we are told the we should be our own competition, which is great, but we have to find that in-between you are talking about. Not as a resting place where we become stagnant, but as a step towards winning the competition against yester-us lol
-
EXACTLY!!! Lol. It’s okay to not be breaking records everyday, but keep doing stuff everyday to keep getting stronger and breaking personal records in the long run!

Accountability Group 6 years, 4 months agoYay, I made it the whole day without sugar!! I took a long walk with my horse. I’ll start riding more when it finally starts to cool down. I plan on doing weights and cardio tomorrow.

Thank you!

Good for you, and good for your horse! 🙂

Workouts 6 years, 4 months agoIf you haven’t read the blog about spring cleaning… you should. As a 50 year old cowgirl illness and poor health is a fact of life if you don’t take control! My favorite from the article was…. if you do not make the time for exercise, you will have to make time for illness.
-
So true. I’m trying to combat what is probably coming in the near future…
-
Listen I have rheumatoid arthritis and when I was eating a lot of sugar it was BAD! Since I have restricted sugar I am off my medicine and my joints are working again. Now that we are doing this challenge they are even better. I have said it and I will say it again… Sugar is the DEVIL
-
That is great news! Yes, since I started my 50’s I am feeling it in trying to do my workouts and everything. My goal is to lose about 35 pounds. I know I will feel much better.

Accountability Group 6 years, 4 months agoSo yesterday, I did really good until last night. It was my anniversary, so my husband took me out. We had pasta…. and then I had frozen yogurt. My excuse was, “it’s not icecream” haha. But it was probably worse. I’m doing better today, haven’t cheated yet! I can do this, I can do this…

Anniversaries and birthdays should be free calorie days haha

We think alike! 🙂

Accountability Group 6 years, 4 months agoI’m not going to lie… I put a brownie bite in my mouth…chewed and then spit it out… chocolate is not a comfort for stress… I repeat … is not a comfort…
-
Haha!! I hear ya! Good for you to spit it out!! Maybe that’s the key, put it in our mouths, get the taste for a second and then spit it out!! Hey, that might work. 🙂
-
Not a proud moment… but I have to be real… Hope your day is going good…
-
Kind of like just smelling the bakery display haha

Wow, that sounds great! The kind of healthy food that tricks you into thinking it’s a treat.

What's Your Motivation? 6 years, 4 months agoI’m 50 I look around at older people and I think to myself… I want a better life than that… I don’t want to ever give up riding… I want to feel good enough to play with grandchildren some day…
-
I especially love that last part about playing with grandchildren some day. My mom and MIL had some health scares while I was pregnant, and we weren’t sure if they would still be around for our baby. Thankfully, they both made it through and changed their lifestyles to overcome! It’s so great to see them with Bubbles.

45 and over 6 years, 4 months agoThe older we get the more aches and pains we have… quitting sugar multiplies that … I have found that Past Tense essential oil by doTerra… it’s a roll on… on my neck and shoulders really helps with this. Not a rep… just something I have found that works for me. When I ride I put it on my lower back.

Good ideas! Except, has anyone else tried drinking ACV? Maybe it was just me when I was pregnant, but it was not pleasant lol

Made it through the day without sugar! LOTS of water & discovered a few handfuls of raw cashews can help.
