Hello, I’m Monica, 48. After raising three children, it seems I have spent almost my entire adult life fighting back weight gained during those pregnancies. My youngest is now 18 and I don’t have many excuses anymore. I’ve always been decent at eating healthfully but I do struggle with portion sizes and eating out. I am a type 2 diabetic and finally got it under control during the pandemic by losing 25 lbs. I used Noom for about a year. I slowly started gaining weight back and so I am trying out some different things to see if I can figure out what I need to focus on to be successful long term. My goals are often small but I am in it for sustainability for life and not a short term change.
July ‘22-current: 193-173 lbs (-20) ⤵️
Goals/Routines:
• Aiming for higher protein intake 80g daily
• 45 minutes exercise 6x a week; Yoga at least 2x, strength training 3x, Run-walk for 30 min x3
• Journaling 1x daily

Give yourself some trophies, ddrudd! 🏆 🏆🏆 Way to go on the progress! 😁
Yoga only yesterday so I’m going to try to do something more substantial today. Not feeling as tired.

Planned to lift tonight but after the hike and then getting everything situated for thw snow I didn't have the energy. Made more sense to hold off until tomorrow I have nothing to do all day but play in the snow with the kids clear the driveway and lift

Those hike pics looked awesome! I’ve never been much for hiking but am getting more interested lately. Just need some better conditions… hurry up May! lol
Enjoy your snow day!

That stuff is awesome and very good for you. Having a good quality of movement is so so important as you get older 😄

Thank you, I'm going to figure this out, somehow, because it's an obsession for me 🤣 It has been for a long time. I don't let things go 👀 I will find the answers.

I hear you on the finding answers! It’s all part of the process. Good job on your bench press progress!!

All this chatter about mobility, I went and found a quick workout on my iFIT app with a trainer I like that was called Restorative Upper-Body Mobility. Lots of stretching exercises for tris, lats and shoulders. Felt very nice even though the only workout I had today was tapping keyboard keys. 😂😂 Well, okay. I did a really short jog/walk this morning, too.

The only mobility training I know is yoga and Pilates. 😆 I try to keep some light stuff on rotation a few days a week. As I age, I just find it beneficial to keeping everything flexible and keeping myself in tune with my body.
Hope you find some thing to help that old injury/imbalance ddrudd!

Hi @moko13!👋
My sister is here visiting from Alaska right now and she keeps talking about how nice and warm it is here 🤣

Hey ddrudd! I am very jelly she has escaped to a more temperate location. I hope she is enjoying her visit (and you are, too).
