Daily Post: (Tuesday)
Goals: Install more solar equipment and gather fallen limbs and sticks into piles around the house paddock.
Track: Yes. Finding this quite a bit harder on the go without a computer or other device running all the time. Solution: Eat less and then have less to remember.
Calories:Yes. Eating back more of my burned cals than I really need, but still running a large deficit. Thinking the solution is more electricity lol. I suspect there is quite a bit of boredom eating going on later in the evening.
Exercise:Yes.
Water Intake: Not as good as I would prefer. Need to create a better drinking water availability solution. I should have a bench top water filter thingy that can be pressed back into service. I've drunk plenty of rainwater in my life, but having never seen inside the tank here, I should probably not just trust it.
@AB0215 & @River_Goddess I completely agree, the value of routines like daily posting is undeniable. Even with busy life going on around, it helps maintain a level of focus on this particular task at hand.
@Fyreside I totally get your tracking issues. The value of using a pc to track is, well, there's no way to express that. I can't track for anything on a mobile device and quite frankly, I refuse. I do love your solution the the problem, eat less lol. The more you share about this technology-less wonderland (wasteland?!) you're living in currently, the more convinced I am that you're crazy, okay maybe not crazy, but...there's no way in hell you could get me to go to a place that doesn't have a high speed data connection and electricity....there's just no way. I have certain necessities....just saying. I think I could live without food, but electricity and internet, nope, no way, no how.

@ssssanaaaa Honestly, I think it's probably a great deal of sugar that goes into some of those dishes, and honestly, it could be a lot worse...and one day in the grand scheme of things isn't horrible, we just need to work on doing better next time. I think that a lot of weight loss is also about portion sizes, sometimes you may have to make choices that you don't love, but if you eat a proper portion, you can also minimize some of the adverse effects on your progressssssanaaaa wrote: »Comments: I had to rush out the door yesterday in the morning and wouldn't be back until 8 PM. Didn't have breakfast and couldn't pack lunch so I had to eat out and I had spicy teriyaki chicken and rice and it was yummy (also a bad choice) I have no idea how many calories it was but I do know they put a lot of sugar and fat and whatnot to make food taste as good as possible when you go out to eat. Scale fluctuated up to 195.1 this morning. Could be from the rice since it's heavy. I'm fasting today and will break my fast when I get home so hopefully that will help with the fluctuation? I don't know lol. On the bright side, I had a presentation to do for class today and it went really well!
Congrats on your presentation!!1 -

Goals: Today was a gym day, honestly, yesterday should have been a gym day but I decided it was better to spend some time with my hubby, so I improvised. Anyways, did good today, pretty happy with myself. Way under on my calories again, and honestly, I think my strategy is working, really a bit upset that it's taken me this long to get my groove back, but it's back and I'm finally feeling like I'm ready to finish what I started.

Goals: Tracking every day and posting every day are my goals this week. Even above counting cals or carbs, I just need to re-establish a routine for success. The dialing back of treats and calorie intake can happen next week. This week, logging is key.
Tracked?: Yes! Day 3 of diligently logging
Under Calories?: Yes, ish. I did eat back some exercise cals which I try not to do... but still a net loss on calories.
Exercise:12,000 steps
Water Intake: 10 cups2 -

This is actually Wednesday for Tuesday, as I was out sick yesterday and so couldn't get to the scales at work that I use for my weigh ins. My weight loss reflects my being sick for the last few days, so there's that, I guess.
Monday (I do these in the morning, so my info is for yesterday)
Track: No
Calories: Probably
Exercise: Hurts to move, so nope.2 -

Well.... it's official.
June was a maintenance month. lol
I am in a wedding next week, and when I got fitted for the dress, I was at this weight. So at least I know the dress will fit well!
July will be a busy month for me, but I am hoping to get closer to that 150 mark. I have big plans for my hair once I hit that goal!! haha1 -
Well, I don't really have any good reason for being absent. I'm off from work, and the four year old went home on Sunday. I've been waiting until the end of the day to post, but then every night I fall asleep on the couch.
On the positive side.....getting back on track. I haven't started logging food yet, but I can honestly say I've been making good choices. And with time off from work, I've had plenty of flexibility to get in some good workouts. Actually, with the heat and humidity moving in, I really front loaded the week with intensity to leave myself some flexibility at the end of the week. Legs were a bit too sore from lifting to manage a 10 mile run, but I did get in 8 miles on Tuesday, followed by the ropes course and kickboxing yesterday. I'm going to try to hit the pool this afternoon, if I can find a chunk of time with a low likelihood of thunderstorms.1 -

After my week in Halifax and 'breaking' my food plan by having a very large donair...I just had to step on the scale this morning a day in advance of my check in date....I seem to have survived and am close to my next 10lb loss milestone!!
Maybe Donair are some kind of new weight loss miracle food?3 -

We went to Hershey Park this week, and I ate terribly! I kept thinking that I was hungry, but I think the roller coasters were messing with my body some. Oh well. Weigh in day is tomorrow. I am looking forward to killing it in July!2 -
