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

    Not really a recipe just a lunch idea…todays lunch was a baked potato topped with cottage cheese and steamed broccoli. Love this as the weather cools off.

    Looking forward to the October challenge and some new recipes and ideas.

    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!

    My husband is a typical cowboy 🤠…meat and potatoes kinda guy but he is willing to adjust. We do stir fry with shrimp 🍤 or grilled chicken and rice. We also do spaghetti but use veggie pasta or protein pasta.

    Premier Protein has a new flavor…birthday cake. Since it’s my birthday month I decided to try it. It’s ok but tastes a lot like vanilla sooo…I added half of a banana 🍌 and a couple handfuls of spinach. Yummy and filling lunch. Next time I’ll add some frozen mixed berries. 😋

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

    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! 😊

    Still working out 5-6 days a week. Need to find new workouts. Guess I should check out the Exerprise app. And I need to do better at meal planning.

    • I need to be better about meal planning also. I stay on my diet but it’s definitely a little more chaotic for me when it’s not planned

    Monday and Wednesday did a couple of Fitbit workouts. Not my favorite. Tuesday I just walked the dogs. Today I did an old school Billy Blanks workout. Still one of my favorites. My favorite DVD workouts are worn out and won’t play. 🙁 Struggling with my workouts because I can’t find any that I like. I don’t have a home gym…just some…[Read more]

    Welcome everyone! Hope you all are enjoying this new challenge. I don’t know about you, but the “…ber” months, September, October, November, and December, are soooo tough for me because I love all the yummy comfort food. But…this challenge will definitely help me think twice about what I eat and I feel so much better. What about you? Do…[Read more]

    Well…we are still hotter than blazes here in Utah. I took this week off of work while my husband is at the ranch in NM and was hoping to get a few rides in, but things just haven’t worked out. However, it’s only Thursday, so hopefully, I can get a ride in tomorrow or Saturday morning. I would this morning, but I have to take my disabled kitty…[Read more]

    Hope you are doing well with your horses lameness rehab and your own rehab from your vertebrae injury. You’re amazing!

    • Yes, thanks! I’m all healed up but my horse is still having issues. She’s walk/trot for now, but that still gets me horseback 🙂

    From Fitbit, “…you recently went above and beyond with activity. Now, your body might need rest. For active recovery try light walks, stretches, or restorative yoga.” Sooo…this morning I walked and fed the dogs, fed the barn cats, fed and watered horses, cleaned stalls, groomed one dog (75 pound Border Collie that hates to be groomed), and…[Read more]

    The bad news…I have not been on here since the challenge started…:( The good news…I have worked out 8 of the 10 days of the challenge. I’m definitely an emotional eater and I have struggled with some depression these last couple of months, so I have struggled to get my nutrition back on track. For me diet and exercise are so crucial for…[Read more]

    • Good job on working out! I’m so much the same way. I’ve also been struggling with depression and it’s been a really bad past few months but we can do this! It’s like a crul game… depression makes you not want to exercise but it’s what helps depression lol.

      • Thank you! Definitely helps to know we are all in this together and working towards the goals of healthy and happy.
