Losing some - toning up - calorie banking - got through Easter 🙈 uploading a pic ( will edit here in a sec )

Yeah, just spoke to my grandson 20, 📞who's now going to the gym - we spoke about the protein shakes I'm on and nutrition and lifting ( free weights - barbell ) " yeah, well you got all the weights there nanny, so, whats stopping you? " Dag nab it - "I gave my weights and barbell away over a year ago". He looked disappointed. I was silent - then thinking it through - I wasn't eating anything that could get me up off a sofa without a push, back then. But now, well I'm eating what I should - mostly, and sometimes, I feel strong, and fly round the house with heaps of energy, but stuck - this getting out the house sh*t. So yeah, the free weights - just need a boost guys

I was a woman over 50 with weak muscles. Everything was an effort. Getting up quickly from the sofa? What’s that? I wasn’t eating right, had high blood pressure, was ( am ) diabetic and on course for that to only get worse. I knew I wanted strength and that would be through the food I put in my mouth. Protein and healthy fats. I did it before and I could do it again. So, I started the 7-day Kickstarter in January. I lost some weight, got into some good habits with exercise, AND showed some weight loss and fewer inches around my waist, chest, thighs, etc – which, in the main, has been maintained. Macros were my mantra! I slipped a few times here and there, and, yes, love a bit of cake now and then, but I needed to step up and take the progress I made to the next level – so I'm ready now for the ten-week challenge. I want to make sure I don’t slip again this time and continue to lose weight and keep the good habits I attained. I will probably eat a cake here and there, but I think the tracker will help me keep tabs on that – I know this much: I have a plan that worked then and will work now. Macros and eating according to my goals with strength and fat loss at the core is the only way forward, and for this, my mindset has to be one of a ‘winner without shame’. I mean, haven’t we all been ‘shamed’ enough as people who are overweight in every magazine or TV ad? So, why would I want to do that to myself as well? So, what if I ate over my calories one day? So, all it means is I must account for that as I move on to the next day. Right? If we flip the thinking on this and commit to our goals (I mean, we set them, right?), then we win every day. I will only gain strength, mental strength, I mean here, with this attitude, emotional strength with this attitude and, ultimately, physical strength with the fat loss and much-needed muscle I'll be achieving. Boy, this feels like an overhaul of all! My mindset, giving myself a pat on the back for staying on the programme, and still moving forward, loving the outcomes, both physical, mental and emotional.

I've been good so far and then slipped a bit - but back on track with doing what I need to do. Ready to take this up a notch - and become thoroughly on track. I have to account for days when I 'comfort eat' the odd doughnut and look at why I beat myself up when I slip - and thankfully i'm beginning to recognise the reasons why. Thanks for your support Matt in the week on this. much appreciated.
