Hey all! Sorry I missed last week. I think DH turned off my alarm for me while I was busy and it just didn't occur to me that I hadn't posted - a lot on my mind right now. We'll just call it a spring break and move on! I hope you're all doing well!
Bonus Question: What do your weight loss goals look like during the pandemic? (Lose weight, maintain, okay with a gain?)

I had an iffy week...found myself eating when not hungry...going to work on being more aware and less indulgent where food is concerned.
- Which of the three types of exercise does your current routine fall into? right now I am only walking so aerobic. I do want to add in the other two at some point, though
- What are your exercise/fitness goals? Do your current activities support them? 30 minutes five times a week is the goal and the last few days have done better than that. I want to increase endurance, strength and flexibility over time.
I find that if I do the walking when I come down to the computer setting a timer for 45 minutes of computer time followed by 15 minutes of activity I get it done before lunch.
- What's something you could add to your routine this week that would provide you with a long-term benefit? Add in some strength training and stretching.
This Week’s Routine: (9) Before eating anything, ask yourself, “Is this worth the PointsPlus value?” Need to do this! I often do but recently have eaten the not-worth-it food anyway
GHG of the Week: Sugar and Alcohol - Limit your intake; women should have no more than one serving of alcohol per day, men 2. Need to work on this...it is sneaking up in points certain days/weeks
Meal of the Week: Lunch What are you having for lunch? I have some vegan kibbeh defrosting and may try making oven fries to go with it since the oven will be on anyway.
