I just set a lofty goal for myself. 20 lbs by Christmas.
May seem lofty but it is doable. Something to work hard towards.
This actually made me think pretty far ahead. I feel like I am in a good mindset with getting my health in order this year, so I would like to assume I will keep sticking with it like I have for 7 months.
But there is something always dangerous from Thanksgiving to New Years Day. It is like society tells us its acceptable for 5 weeks to stop caring about our health and “just live”. I want to start thinking ahead now how I will approach that month and what kind of goals I will have.
I am the exact same way, Erik. Christmas is my undoing. Let's not let it blindside us this year...let's have a plan in place!!!2 -

Don’t get this one. Last week I only went over calories the one planned day. This week I have been perfect on calories and worked out everyday and been really on top of my water
I know...it's frustrating!! Just be patient....you'll probably drop a couple pounds all at once in the next few days!! You are doing everything right, so you have to trust the process!!0 -
mini challenge 7/25
Tracking yes
Calories Yes
Exercise Yes Walking with the puppy early. Then walking the halls at work. I did NOT do the 7 minute exercises that took 20 min yesterday. I think I will do them every other day to give myself a rest until I can actually get it done in 7 minutes.
On another positive note I graduated from vision therapy today. Yeah it has been a long road since my stroke in October but I am finally back to almost where I was before the stroke.2 -

That is wonderful news, about being almost back to where you were before!! When I read your daily posts, and see how active you are, I forget that you had a recent stroke!! And yes, there is nothing wrong with taking a rest day between your 7 minute attempts!! And having this fitness goal, having something to aim for, is a wonderful way to motivate yourself to exercise!!1 -

@drea2011, Drea, I know you hurt your back over a week ago, and it has derailed your exercise routine. Maybe you rely heavily on exercise calories to reach your goal each day, so yes, losing weight without exercise would be more difficult for you, but not impossible!! I hope your silence is because your app is giving you troubles, and nothing more!0

Hope you are enjoying your vacation! The fact that you have consciously allowed yourself some extra treats, makes me fully believe that you will get right back on track when your vacation is over. It is a decision you have made. It's when there is no thought or planning that goes into an "over" that we tend to keep on going. There was never any plan to start, so it makes sense there would be no plan to stop, either.0 -

Mini challenge
Thu 7/26
Tracking: yes
Calories: yes
Excercise: yes, 20 minutes of yoga, and at night we went to see the Philadelphia Orchestra in the park so lots of walking up and down hills
I barely made my calories. In honesty, I let the weigh in this morning drag me down and I ate a cheesesteak for lunch. I decided to do yoga to burn some of it off. And I didn’t snack today cause I didn’t want to break my streak. Came in 2 calories under. And I actually didn’t enter the walk in the park, so it may have been a little better than that
Sun: yes
Mon: yes
Tues: yes
Wed: yes
Thur: yes
