Day 2 of Knitting Camp. I ran 10km (down and up the mountain) to mitigate all the junk food and alcohol. Then in the afternoon the power went out, so our camping suddenly got a whole lot more rustic!

the end to a less-than-perfect month due to indulgences on vacation, but I am back in the groove on exercise. Lots of support via fruit from my friends!

here comes may! callooh, callay!

As predicted, more hauling of shed parts today. It was sunny for a while! I am very tired.

Turns out I spoke too soon when I said I could complete a two-day week without losing life points. Still, I end up positive for the month. Hooray! See you all in May!

Well, I made it through the month with three life points—and I believe that was without anyone giving me fruit to get extra life points. So I did it all on my own! Now if I can do as well next month…

Yay ,, end of health month ..

End of the month. Thank goodness. Starting over next month with less rules. I made a mistake adding so many rules in my second month. I’m cutting back for May and trying again with rules more into mental health than anything else. It was the darn soda rule that killed me.

just seeing results now and Im happy cause I’ve been working so hard

Thiskeeping up will help with my weight loss

Announcement! Ricky’s taking a break from running the team, I’ve set it up for May. You can join here: http://healthmonth.com/teams/show/549

I don’t need any fruit I just wanted to use mine up.

Deep in the hole. Probably not coming out. Had fun eating ice cream and playing with my family at the Great Wolf Lodge instead of following rules. What can I say? We needed a mini vacation. Now back to working until 2 in the morning every day…

Great month! Feeling better all the time. Thanks for the support and love. Let’s do it again.

busy day. did bookwork, ran errands got a pedicure. Made a spinach salad with sweet red peppers and avocado for dinner. So good. Why is it so hard for me to get greens in when they are so delicious. This will be solved when I win the lottery and get a personal chef.

While Health Month has proven to be a very useful tool over these past 8 months, I think I am going to take a break. I am re-evaluating my health goals and motivation methods, and I feel like I’ve become a bit of a slave to my Fitbit stats as well as the game and logging aspects of Health Month. It hasn’t been much fun lately, and I feel the need to try new ways to motivate myself.

Health Month has been an awesome tool for promoting a healthier me, and I don’t regret using it at all. I just personally find it time to move on. I don’t think I could’ve made it through my transition to paleo without the support of my team, and I am forever grateful for that. Our Whole30 month in January kicked ass!

I might be back in June, though! Thanks, teammates and friends, for a good run. :)

Great day watching the Royal Wedding in the AM and heading up to Boston where it was a relatively smooth “moving day” at the college, good lunch & then fun bar/restaurant where I had a delicious Cosmo & drank lots of water while his uncle and he were at a Red Sox game. Slept well last night!

Just a bit of self rescue

Let the festivities begin!

Headed to bonneville hot springs after work with my mom and sister.

Got to hang laundry on the outside line for the first time this year! Yay!

Wisconsin finally remembered that it’s spring, with an awesome day full of sunshine and blue skies. I spent a large part of it outside, cleaning up the yard, having a picnic with my best friend in the park, walking around the square. It was awesome. Topped off with a nice dinner out. I didn’t even eat the apple pie. :)

I was distracted all friday on random things, but I did stay under my calorie rule… the scale is being cruel right now, keeping me at the same weight for the last 3 days

I’m confused about how the math worked with the quotas on the short “week.” But I’ll take it.

Exercise today was hauling REALLY GIANT shed pieces around our friend’s yard and into a uhaul.

Great day. School was really good, I got lots of work done, then I went and had really good vegan sandwiches with my boyfriend. :) And then we watched lots of Dr. Who and Torchwood. Awfully nice. :)
