Weekly Check-In: Movement → Muscle 🧠💪 This week wasn’t about grinding harder.It was about nudging the system. You were asked to increase NEAT and add +1,000 steps per day—not to burn yourself out, but to remind your body that movement is normal again. Small inputs. Consistent signals. That’s how plateaus loosen their grip. Take a second before you answer and actually reflect: - Did your steps increase intentionally, or only on “good” days? - What changed when movement became something you layered in instead of something you had to “work out” for? - Did you notice more energy, better mood, better digestion, or better sleep—even if the scale stayed unimpressed? Now check in below 👇1️⃣ NEAT / Steps Check-In - Average steps this week: - Did you hit the +1k most days, some days, or not yet? - One thing that made it easier (or harder) than you expected: No judgment here. Data beats guilt every time. What’s Next: Strength Training Phase 🏋️‍♀️ Now we shift gears—from movement that supports fat loss to muscle that protects your results. Strength training isn’t a punishment for eating more or a tool to “fix” your body.It’s how you tell your metabolism, “Hey, we’re keeping this weight off.” 2️⃣ Strength Training Check-In Comment below with: - What type of strength training you’ll be doing (gym, home, dumbbells, machines, bands, bodyweight, etc.) - How many days this week you’re committing to - One non-negotiable time or habit you’ll anchor it to You don’t need perfect plans. You need clear intention and follow-through. This phase is where a lot of people get uncomfortable—and that’s exactly why it works. Plateaus don’t break from doing more of the same. They break when the signal changes. Let’s see where you landed this week and where you’re heading next.

Finally got my first workout of the week in! Didn’t have time to get on the treadmill. I did not increase steps, but during breaks, I walked around inside the building and offices. 🙂 hit about 6k steps.

I’ve been at a standstill with my weight loss since Christmas. But thankfully, I’m back on track. After talking with @Joanne Zuniga, I know that sometimes we stall, but upping the protein, getting in your movement and starting strength training are all good things and I’ve lost 1.5 pounds since my last weigh in! Tracking is second nature and I often feel like I’m a food vlogger, taking pics of every meal to track!! Heading off to a vacation for a couple weeks, so hopefully I can keep it all up.

I sat mostly today in meetings. But I took a break every 30min to 1 hr and walked around the office.

Who has watched day 15 video? Who has made a plan to increase steps and NEAT? Check in with me below 👇🏽 I will be in corporate meetings all week in Chicago 🥶 nonetheless so it will be interesting to see how I could increase NEAT. I’ll keep you all posted 🙂
