Welcome. Simple and right to the point, love it! JFT: Log everything, stay within calorie limits, be poitive and smile, learn something new, work out for one hour after work, light dinner, relax and read and enjoy my cats. That will be my day.0

so no more candy today - I left the rest of the candy in the break room to get out of the house. Now I still have to avoid it at work
nope not even close, still ate a bunch at work
extra water to try and repair damage I drank a lot of water yesterday
day 7 of the Darebee Foundation Light Program
JFT Tuesday
-The candy I brought in is gone but others are bringing in theirs, so no more than two pieces. I seem to do poorly with things like telling myself none because once I've caved I feel no need for other limits, so I'll split the difference and go for reality.
- meal prep this evening for later in the week -lasagna or pasta bake, and cook the chicken breasts, and pull some stuff out of the freezer to defrost
- Day 8 of exercise program
- Brush/floss before bed0 -
Slightly over my calorie goal but beat it on average for the week.
I lost 8.2# on the week but in perspective, 5.4# over the past three
Didn't work out, was a couch slug with a cold. For the week worked out 4:56 including 6.55 miles of walking.
I am expressing gratitude for the Over 50 Support group I was in the past several months. It was my first effort at peer support and while the group is much more focused on maintenance the experience was great.
Good day yesterday.
Under my calorie goal for the day.
Didn't work out, went to bed at 7:00 and woke up at 6 this morning.
Expressed my wellness gratitude and was patient throughout the day.
For today:
I will stay under my calorie goal and not over indulge.
I will get out and walk this evening.
I will continue to work on patience though I already pushed the boundaries with a slow driver in the fast lane of the toll road.
I will express my wellness mantra when I finish MFP update
I am expressing gratitude for the encouragement from my lovely bride. Down 67 pounds as of this morning, wearing slacks I hadn't worn in years. She told me how great I look and gave me a big hug. Motivation that will carry me through the day!0 -

Ate healthy yesterday and stayed in calories. Didn't get my activity in...worked late and was exhausted (not an excuse I know, but I don't like walking in the dark without sidewalks in the neighborhood!). I did think before I spoke and did not snap back when snapped at. This is hard for me when it happens day after day, but I think I drew more flies with honey yesterday so that was a huge success for me!
@bri170lb Thank you for the encouragement. Feeling pretty down on myself right now so needed to hear something nice!

Did really well yesterday. Eating today will be more challenging with provided meals. I really hate estimating to that degree bit I guess it can't be helped.
