Another great week, Mary!! Your consistency is paying off!! Love when you say, "Who knew there was a right and a wrong way to walk?" It just shows we are never too old to learn new things!! And if you can speak Swiss German or Hungarian...I might be able to hire you as my personal valet!!0 -

Wednesday weigh in:

No loss this week. Which bummed me out. I started strength training this week and all my muscles are sore, which I imagine might be masking a small loss. I was under on calories for the week and had mostly great days. Worked out 7 days a week. Going to continue the same way for another week and If i still dont see a loss next week I'm going to evaluate everything and make some changes. See if that helps. Today is my birthday so I have my calories set to maintenance but I'm still going to work out so if I do end up eating all the calories I'll still have a net loss on calories. Going to enjoy the day and try not to think about not losing this week. On another note today is also day 60 of my tracking streak. I started before that but I've been actively using mfp again for 60 days so I think that's a small victory.3 -

Happy Birthday, hope you have a great one!
I understand the feeling when you want to see a loss, but not gaining is a win! As you keep strength training that muscle will start burning fat more. Keep going, you are doing great3 -

Happy Birthday, Vi!! Since you just started weight training this week, your muscles are more than likely holding onto water as they repair themselves. Don't fret about the scales not showing a loss, as you are doing everything right!! It sounds like you have a plan to enjoy your birthday, and still post an "under" day!! Whoo hoo!! Congratulations on your 60 day streak...that shows your dedication to the process!!2 -
Goals this week
Sunday- Tuesday. I've met a'll goals (calories, tracking, exercise and water. I had to dip into my exercise for Monday and Tuesday because I ate too much spinach and artichoke dip. I made it and didn't realize it was going to be such a big portion. I was craving it so I'm glad I made it. I'm using the rest of it tonight on my chicken. Yum!5 -
