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 (June 16 – June 22, 2025):
Our weather continues to improve. I had lunch with a friend on Monday. Wednesday, I had a big meeting at work to finalize my project which is due at the end of the month. On Thursday, my daughter and I went to see How to Train Your Dragon in the theater. We both really liked it and thought it was a great live action remake. It was my mother-in-law’s birthday on Friday, and we went out for a steak dinner. Saturday was SUNNY! It was the first Saturday without rain in 15 weeks. I did some yard work. My bestie returned home from her trip to France and came by to visit. We hung out by the fire pit and enjoyed some of the wine she brought back. On Sunday I helped host a picnic for our church staff appreciation. I was also able to jump on the Read-Along Chat for 30 minutes.
Weight: I was up 0.6 pounds last week.
Goals: I continued to keep up my walking schedule, getting out early before the day gets too hot. I am enjoying the morning walks, even though sometimes it’s hard on my body until I get warmed up. I did end up having a couple glasses of wine, but when your bestie returns from vacation with bottles of wine from France and says she wants to hang out and enjoy the wine, how can I say no? I also didn’t do great with my eating, so I ended up gaining this week.
My goals for the week of June 23rd are: Walk/move for 4 days and no alcohol.
Don’t forget to join the Facebook Group and check in with us there!
Goals for last week:
-
- Walk/Move 30 minutes, 4 days per week– 5/3 days
- Limit alcohol intake to 0 days per week. – 1 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.
