So it is the season to be having parties and social gatherings for Christmas Me and my mates have one every year and it is always a blow out Lots of drink, plenty of food and then even more drinks....wellll out of my comfort zone 🤣 And it zapped my energy the next day and then all week But this is where your reason why 💪, killer habits 💪, world class basics 💪(whatever you want to call it) HAVE to kick in I was tired alllllll week. But when it was time to train (I have when I train booked in my phone diary) I trained We are doing the step challenge so even though 1 of my running days, my actual steps was only 2k....I made sure I got over 12k average for the week I had LOADS of calories on Saturday, so I made sure to plan my calories each evening for the next day throughout the week We should make memories and be Merry this time of year...BUT...we should always put the work in when we have to I was so so tired all week, but I didn't want to miss ticking my boxes The Phrase show up regardless has stuck with me for a long time and helps me get it done Whats your mindset or habits you are planning to use to get it done around the Christmas socials?

Happy Monday! Hope you’re all enjoying the Christmas period! Drop your weekly steps for last week in the comments ⬇️

I'd be curious to know how people deal with a bad week and is it really a bad week or am I just overthinking? ⚫️ I didn't log my meals consistently. ⚫️ I didn't complete all my planned exercises. Despite this- ✅I still lost weight over the last week. ✅I've noticed that I can now get into the 5th notch along when fastening my work jeans belt, before I started my health journey I was struggling to fasten it on the 3rd notch. ✅Started a YouTube vlog on my weight loss journey in the hopes to inspire others as well as be accountable myself. I think it's easy to focus on the negatives but the reality is, bad weeks do happen and despite that there's still going to be positives. It's about finding them and focussing on them rather than dwelling. I've been in my head that I'd not done great the past week but looking back it's not been as bad as I thought. I just wish I could snap out of the thought process easier. Any tips or tricks would be appreciated 💪🏻🙌🏻.

Question. When tracking rice, is it the cooked or pre-cooked weight to be recorded?
