I went camping with some climbing/Acro friends and I took mental notes on how they ate. They focus heavily on high protein foods and avoided foods high in carbs. I’ve known this is key to weight loss for a long time but watching them abide by it so effortlessly inspired me to try the same. They just found foods that nourished their body in a positive way and didn’t see the food as punishment. And they snacked/ate a lot, but it was veggies and protein. Now I understand why they have little body fat lol.

Flying home for a week today. Goal: don’t eat everything in sight. I should be able to get at least 1 workout in while i’m there too :) not to be a Scrooge, but itll be nice for the holidays to be over soon and life to feel normal again. Looking forward to this break though!

Yesterday I went to open gym and that was my first workout in a week 😭 life has been so busy I’ve been neglecting any sort of workout. I’m hoping to get back on track soon

everyone share photos of some festive things you’re doing this month… We finally decorated our Xmas tree 😆🎄🎅

I haven’t eaten out in almost 2 weeks… frankly bc it’s easier & cheaper to eat at home. We went out to the new restaurant Culinary Dropout in old town Orange and I had the salad w/grilled salmon. While the kids / hub enjoyed pretzel bites w/pub cheese, I avoided it. I’ve hit a weight plateau at 125 lbs but I suspect once I’m cleared to exercise & I can get back to strength training, swimming, and rock climbing… hoping I’ll be able to push past
