Daily Post (Tuesday)
Day/Goals: Today I knew wasn't going to be a good day for food. For my birthday (which was a couple weeks ago), they give you a free meal for your birthday at Tucanos and anyone who has one near you, you should try it, but know this, it's very hard to be good there. And I only eat there for my birthday, once a year, since it's a lot of food and very expensive. I ate sugar/dessert for the first time since July and might be on a sugar high right now, but sooo good. Tomorrow will be a painful day, sugar crash and then subsequent withdrawal, but I will survive. I think it's ok to let loose once in a while, but tomorrow is back to business.
Track: Nope, don't want to know.
Calories: There's not a chance in hell that I made this goal today.
Exercise: Now this goal I did make. 45 minutes weight training, arms--95lb bench press, 85lb bent over row, 50lb bicep curls, 50lb tricep extension and 105 lb tricep press. Good day there

So today has been a stressful and emotional day for me but I'm in the day on a positive note thanking about my progress I've made as you guys know I've lost 14 pounds or less in 7 days I'm so excited and I'm amazed that what I've been doing is working cuz I'm not even exercising and I'm losing weight and I just want to keep on being on the same wavelength so I don't fail this time around.

I have been cleared to cycle following my road to recovery after an injury. This means that I can finally get active! People at work are starting a slimming down weekly meet up, alongside the half marathon training some of them are doing (I'm not there yet to be full impact!). So feeling positive and hoping for a much better March!2 -

Happy birthday I'm praying that you have a wonderful and blessed day and I hope you're under the calories too but if not don't beat yourself up just enjoy and celebrate it's your birthday!!
Thanks. Had a great b-day but, not under 300 yet. I was .1 away on my b-day and .2 today (only went up .1 lbs after a slice of Chicago style pizza and a beer. THAT’S AWESOME!)
Now everything is back to normal for awhile *whew* exciting month. Wife’s b-day, boss visit, Valentine’s Day, San Diego trip, moms b-day, Arizona trip, my B-day and still had fantastic weight loss over the month.
Looking forward to see what happens next month.2 -

Previous Week's Weight:175.7
Current Weight: 170.4
I was actually shocked by this. I had been seeing '170-point-something', for the past few days and I kept weighing myself 2-3 times just to see if it was a fluke.
And this morning, I did it again (on 2 different scales!) and tried a few times but got the same number.
So I guess I really am 170 lbs!!!
My initial goal for Feb was to get to the 160s.... I didn't meet that goal, but I am literally .5 away from it. So I am calling it a win!! hahaha
YAY!5 -

I went over my calories by about 50. Not a big deal. I had a big dinner, and while I could have skipped the second empanada and still been ok, I really wanted it..... hahaha Felt very full after, though, so I probably should have just had half. Oh well. Still a good day and almost drank a full gallon of water!! I was very thirsty.... haha

Okay, so I wasn't this high all this week lol even yesterday but that's what was on the scale this morning. I do think I'm retaining a bit of water though since my meals yesterday were pretty salty I suppose. BUT anyway, this is the final weigh-in for February. I started at 193 at the beginning of February and I ended a little heavier which is sad but, on the bright side, the damage isn't so extreme where it would be extremely hard to undo. I guess overall I was able to maintain more or less the same weight I started with (I didn't regain all of the weight I had lost since January). My reflection on this month was that I did eat out a lot more than I wanted to. I was over my calories more than I wanted to be. I did track though! And that's not second nature for me so that is somewhat of a good thing. My goal for March is to get into the 180s. This is a very doable short goal and I really want to work hard to get to it! I'm excited for March's fresh start.1 -

You can definitely do it.
And the fact that you tracked everything even when you went over in calories, is a NSV in my book. Tracking is not an easy thing to do for me either. It's not second nature, and sometimes I really don't want to acknowledge what I am eating or how far over in calories I went.
So yeah, major NSV for you for the month of Feb!
On to being in the 180s in March!!
You got this!!
