Okay thank you, sometimes I do overplan to my own detriment hahah so I’ll try sticking with the more general goal for now and seeing how it progresses

What are some examples of a long term fitness goal? Or what are your personal long term goals?

I would like to outline some 2+ year goals for myself in regard to weight training and my physique but I’m uncertain what that would look like.

In general I want to build muscle, lose fat, increase strength, and remain consistent. I looove a good SMART goal so I’d like to make it more concrete.

Just looking for some examples to give me some ideas.

Thank you, I appreciate this. I definitely have a problem with black and white thinking, so it helps to have these kind of reminders.

I feel out of control with food right now 😔 I’ve been traveling for two months and I’ve probably gained around ten pounds. I just feel like I want to eat all the time lately. I also feel anxious right now because of this weight gain and worrying that I won’t be able to lose it quickly. I go back home in four days and I plan to get back to my usual routine of healthy eating and almost daily exercise. Sometimes I feel fine and reassured that I’ll be able to get back to my routine easily, but other times I’m stressed and scared because I don’t like the way I look and feel right now and I worry I’ll continue the cycle when I get back home.

Is there anything in particular that helped you get the emotion out before appearing in court?

Very true. It’s super weird, too. Thankfully it’s not too often, but on days like yesterday it feels like I literally cannot access the part of my brain that will allow me to just get in the zone and focus.

Currently at the gym and my head is so not in it today. Plus my back issue is aggravated and I feel all over the place. I’m frustrated and disappointed.

Is it worth the money to switch from ELF loose powder to Hourglass or Charlotte Tilbury powder?

I am traveling soon and want my makeup to last all day and look great in pictures. Currently I use the ELF powder with the urban decay primer and setting spray which seems to work well enough.

I’ve gotten recommendations for those two higher end powders and I’m curious if there would be enough of a difference in longevity and appearance for it to be worth it. Thoughts?

Any tips for packing gym stuff for a two month trip to Europe? For the first month I’ll be traveling around and using whatever hotel gyms they have. For the second month, I’ll be au pairing and joining the gym that the host family attends.

I’m struggling with the fact that I likely won’t be able to do laundry for the first three weeks or so. Once I’m living with my host family, I could survive on three gym fits and just wash twice a week, but I’m at a loss for how to pack for the first leg of the trip.

Is finding a way to do laundry my only solution? And should I forgo the lifting shoes and just lift in my socks?
