The Truths and Transformation of Tetemcg. (Diary #2)

Thanks Ladies! The knee is tender but nothing major. I just did my kettlebell routine Wednesday night and oh my I was feeling it today...lol! That second day is the worse!!


Everything is going to plan...good on calories and active mintues...hoping to go on a hike tomorrow if the weather holds out. It's a few hours away but we will make a day out of it...history and working out...can't beat it.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!

You are doing very well tete. That hike sounds very challenging, especially for knees! Have a great weekend hon xo
 
Thanks Cate, it was a complete wash out so we didn't make it. I know I am worried about my knees...but I don't want it to stop me from trying. If everyone's schedules line up hopefully we can try soon!
 
Ouch, I was going to pick up my kettle bell again today and completely forgot! Shame about the hike; it´s so awesome to get out in the fresh air being active with awesome people.
 
@cate I know I was disappointed, some other day and maybe I should get a walking/hiking pole first.
@LaMaria I really enjoy the kettlebell routines, I guess because I feel like I get such a good work out in such a small time period.

Speaking of traveling Cate...My sons are headed on an almost cross country road trip (1500 miles) with buddies to Colorado and I am super jealous of them, they left about an hour ago without me! boohoo!!

I have to share a pic. My two are the bookends! Jay to the left and Jon to the right, Jon is 19 and Jay 20. Jon has about a 4 inches on his big brother...haha

You know what's crazy, when I started my journey here 5 years ago they were only 15 & 14. Now they are actual men!! haha. I don't know how that happened but I am so thankful for them everyday...even if they drive me nuts!

On the weightloss side...I am on track and doing good! Lost 1 pound this week, I will take it!!
 
Ooh, road trip. Lucky them. They're gorgeous tete. Sons do drive us nuts, but it's lucky we love them so much :beating: xoxo Cate
 
Thank you so much Ladies, they are great young men, looking forward to seeing what the future will bring.

Did a new Kb routine today...it kicked my butt, I can already feel the tightening in my sides, a little scared to see what tomorrow will bring...haha. No pain no gain...right?

Also, this time around I feel my body is changing even if my weight dropping is a little slower. I really think the strength training is the key, I try to get in three sessions a week and then walk 30 minutes 4 x a week.

Hope everyone is having a great Friday!

Xo,
Tete
 
Memorial Day weekend, was 3 days of bad bad food and drink, I was still under maintenance calories if using my exercise calories as well. Gonna push the water the next few days and hope that gets things back on track.

Everything else is going good though, slow and steady.

Boys are back from their trip so I can stop stress eating at least! They came home late yesterday exhausted and full of stories. :beating:

Great job staying under maintenance on a holiday weekend!

Thanks, the struggle was real!:hug2:


So this week has been trucking along, nothing major to report, no weight loss, staying true to the course and hoping for next week to see the scales move. I really want back into the 170's by August! I am working hard to get there...but maybe I need to step it up even more.

I felt a little swelled and bloated this week...so it could have been TOM that caused the mini stall, I had a hysterectomy back in '10 but kept my ovaries so in theory I still get a period without all the mess...lol. The odd thing is I have no idea of my cycle, but usually I start putting two and two together and then remember that must be why I am a raging you-know-what, just cried over a song, want to eat the actual fridge and its contents, and have a zit the size of the grand canyon on my face...haha!! So that's that..my lovely friends! :willy_nilly:

Hope everyone has a great weekend...hope the rain stops here! I still want to get on my hike...with or without one of those men of mine coming along!

X,
Tete
 
Hope everyone is having a good day!

Down .6 this week and I measured my inches for the first time since March and I was pleasantly surprised to see that I've lost 4 inches over all! So yeah me! :)
