Met calorie goal.

Bike 60 minutes.

Stretching 25 minutes.
-Raised Lunges 50 rep
-Hip Extension with band 50 rep
-Hip Abduction with band 50 rep
-Monster Walk with band 30 seconds x 3
-Lateral Walk with band 30 seconds x 3

Been looking at various eating plans of FS members...sometimes asking questions....sometimes taking notes....doing research....and going to my doctor and dietitian when needed. Been making smoothies with whey protein powder for a few weeks now and I love how I feel (sometimes with berries, sometimes with yogurt, chia and flax). My bloodwork levels have been great. My doctor may change some of my meds during dialysis because my hemoglobin has been high (not an anemia risk!) and she is checking with the anemia monitor to make sure! The last few months my protein levels have been IN GOAL (was low before FS).

Other than calories, I'm really trying to get my protein to 100g a day. I have been doing a great challenge for a few months that gives you the option to keep track of your fiber and fat, which I haven't been doing. I'm within 20 pounds of my first goal and realize that I might have to tweak my WOE as I get closer. I can't do KETO as I get shaky without carbs, but I have cut out most processed carbs except whole wheat bread. Will be looking into what to do as I get closer.

Fourth day of Novena to St. Thomas Aquinas. Praying for healing for many FS members.

Did stretches with bands today. Have PT tomorrow morning and want to be ready!

Onward, friends.

Good job! Keep in mind that you can always do a modified version of any “diet” that you see to make it work for you. Keep up the good work.

Great job getting your exercises done!! Listen to your body. Good luck your getting closer to your first goal that’s awesome!! What I been doing last 3 days is when I’m coming out of my fast the first thing I have is warm lemon water. I read it helps with digestion and weight loss. It made me feel not so hungry slowed my first meal a little I also drink one before dinner now too :) https://m.activebeat.com/diet-nutrition/10-reasons-to-wake-up-to-lemon-water/ Have a great day!! 💕💕🍀🍀🌈🌈

I too strive for 100 grams of protein a day. Mostly go between 65-85. Today was good. I use whey protein and collegen. I love smoothies but usually do green/veggie ones. I add vanilla protein powder to my morning oatmeal. It sweetens it up nicely. Hoping your health keeps improving!!😘🙏💜
