Welcome to #FitReaders2025!! Felicia and I are excited to co-host this fitness-oriented group. If you have any questions about #FitReaders, you can leave them in the comment section or email me at twimom227(at)gmail(dot)com.
Most of our support is done via our Facebook Group. I post my weekly check-ins on Fridays, as it helps me be accountable. You are welcome to do your own check-in posts, check in below, in the comments, or check in with the Facebook group – whatever works for you!
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 (March 24 – March 30, 2025):
It was another week with my husband traveling. During the work week, I kept myself busy with work and getting stuff done around the house. On Friday, we went out to celebrate a friend’s birthday with dinner and going to Board and Brush. I made a Spring welcome sign for our front porch. The weather was miserable on Saturday – it SNOWED! I went shopping with a friend and her daughter who needs clothes for her study abroad trip (May). We had an amazing “authentic” Italian meal for a late lunch. Sunday was cold again. My husband and I enjoyed a quiet day at home.
Weight: I was down 1.2 pounds for the week and down a total of 1.5 pounds during March.
Goals: I was able to meet all my goals last week. I had to push myself to get in that second yoga and close my active calorie ring, but I did it. It was a good first step working towards getting back into a solid fitness routine. I am going to repeat these same goals for next week.
Don’t forget to join the Facebook Group and check in with us there!
Goals for March 24-30:
- Walk 30 minutes, 3 days per week – 4/3 days
- Yoga 20 minutes, 2 days per week – 2/2 days
- Stretching 3 days per week (on days I walk) – 3/3 days
- Close all three “rings” in Apple Watch, 5 days per week. – 5/5 days
- Track food/calories 7 days per week. – 7/7 days
- Limit alcohol intake to 2 days per week. – 2 days
During 2025 I plan:
- To maintain or be less than my January 1st, 2024 weight. I will do with through exercise and making adjustments to my caloric intake. I don’t have to be perfect, but I do need to make a true effort.
- To move. I will do this primarily via walking, four to seven days per week. I also need to stretch most/all of the days I exercise.
- To remain an active member of FitReaders and support my fellow members. I will do this by actively participating in the FitReader Facebook Group and continuing to share my journey with my weekly check-in on the blog.
