    Sat 6/16
    Tracking: yes
    Calories: no
    Exercise: yes

    Just barely went over my calories - by about 100. I didnt binge but there were no healthy food options at fathers day dinner with my parents.
    Overall a good week. Lost weight, I had one completely off day, one day I didn’t excercise, and one day I went over calories.

    As long as you have more good days than bad, you'll still come out ahead! Good job on keeping Father's Day dinner to only 100 calories over!!

    Tracking yes
    Calories yes but barely
    Exercise 21 min stepper with weights

    So I've noticed I'm snacking a lot more during the day and I think it's because my kids are home all day and want to snack constantly :D I changed my meal names in my diary to include one "unplanned" to help me keep track of these extra snacks. I also changed my settings so my friends will see my diary (if I remember to click the complete it button). Hopefully that will keep me even more accountable. Anyone looking for more friends feel free to send me a request ;)

    Yeah it makes sense that you would find yourself snacking more now that the kids are home!! Just keep track of it, like you are planning to do!!

    Mini challenge June 16
    Tracking: Yes
    Calories: Yes
    Exercise: Yes

    There was a classic car drive in at a church not far from us so the puppy and I walked there, walked around admiring the older cars and then walked home. Okay I carried her when she got tired. Got home and the fit bit showed 4.4 miles and 10576 steps. I guess we walked farther than I thought.

    It was an official one. It was on an island in Boston Harbor so you could see the city and all the boats. It was a beautiful sunny day too

    Glad you were distracted by the older cars so you could get in a very nice long walk!!

    First off, congratulations on getting that whoosh and losing an impressive 6 pounds last week!!! That is what you need to focus on, the here and now accomplishment!!! If you spend too long focusing on the "woulda/coulda/shoulda", you'll drive yourself crazy! You can't change the past, so just look forward to the future that has yet to be shaped!

    absolutely agree with you! Back in the saddle now! I will get there :)
