I just looked back at my last three days of logging and it looks like my fiber is good but I’m low in potassium and iron. I don’t eat meat except fish occasionally so I expected the iron but what foods are good for potassium that you all eat?

My goal is to prayer morning AND night this whole month. I’ve been super good about prayers at night, but really have been lacking in the morning. Curious to hear what Routine has worked for you when it comes to prayer for your higher power?

As soon as I wake up, I just hit my knees and pray. Before water, before anything. That is the only way I remember to do it, otherwise, I just get too busy. 🙂

I struggle with prayer the last couple of years. I always want to do better at it-I wonder if pairing it with an already established habit would help. Like pairing it with breakfast time or brushing teeth or the shower.

![Profile picture of Dana Limperis]()
I am struggling with consistency as well. I have the best of intentions. I do pray, but I want to study and do deeper thought work and prayer, and just don’t prioritize it. I like the idea of habit stacking here. Any more ideas on how to do that with a daily devotional book would be greatly appreciated.

From what I know, you’d be fine to do hip thrust in these early phases but as you get more pregnant, yes, not the most ideal! Also, if you just wanna play it safe, then probably safe to sub it out

Macros for today — did well. It was tricky to balance at the end of the day with carefully planned snacks, but I did it. Ended the day at 88 calories under and 6 g protein over. Happy to have hit my micronutrients and well over fiber goal as well.

The Ole Wrap has 50 cals, 5 g protein, 11 g fiber, 15 carbs. They are versatile and taste great warmed. I also for fiber try hard to put fairly solid quantities of veggies or fruit with every meal and snack – berries in yogurt or oatmal, veggies on side with lunch and dinner.

@bradjensen, I just listened to the video recap of the call for March 5.
So for my training for powerlifting, when it gets probably 4-5 weeks out from the meet, we workout 5 days a week. Monday- heavy Squats..meaning we take it to a RIR of 1 or 2. We always have a spotter. Tuesday- heavy bench. Wednesday…heavy deadlift.!Thursday and Friday is light bench and squats.. still with a spotter.
When going heavy…we will break form if needed to complete the lift, as long as we remain within the rules of the lift. For bench, your butt and shoulders have to touch the bench and you feet have to remain stationary.
For squat, you simply have to hit depth and come up in 1 solid movement.
For deadlift, just pull in one solid motion, without hitching, then lockout without overextending.
Basically we do whatever we have too to get the lift lol.

Is it alright if I do a paper record? I find I’m more motivated to record stuff if I can write it out.
