I check in here every Friday, but my fitness week is Monday – Sunday. So my check-ins are always about a week behind.
Last Week (April 20 – April 26, 2020):
Week 6 of full COVID-19 distancing. More of the same. I did well with my movement and exercise. I even had fewer alcoholic drinks. But the amount of overeating and snacking continues to increase. And it’s really not stress-related; it’s mostly because it’s there. Or I’m bored. Or I think I’m hungry and craving something.
Weight: I was up another 0.8 lbs for the week, with a four-week gain of 3.4 pounds. I’m now only down 2.8 lbs for the year, which was were I was at back in mid-January.
I am hosting the Facebook Group this month, so pop on over and check in with us there!
My Goals for 2020:
My overall goals for 2020 remain much the same as the past few months:
- To lose 10 pounds and get back to my goal weight through healthy eating and exercise.
- To remain an active member of FitReaders and support my fellow members.
Goals for April:
How did I do this past week?
- Close all three “rings” in Apple Watch, 5 days per week – 6/5
