Calories; Yes 👌
Tracked: Yes
Been a wonky, but good day.
Had a lazy morning, and the chilly air from the rain made it hard to feel motivated, cuz I was already feeling rly gloomy (my best friend rarely talks to me anymore SMH).
But then the sun came out and I'm sure that was Life telling me to focus less on feeling sorry for myself and focus more on taking care of myself. So after breakfast I went straight to my workout, and knocked out a really good cardio session for an hour 💪
Proud of myself, cuz I was really tempted to have a Pass day and just stay glued to the computer and let my depression eat at me
I'm running errands tomorrow so it'll be nice to finally get out of the house, and that'll count as my day's worth of walking. Got meals prepped so I can keep my nutrition on track. Tonight for my dessert I treated myself to 2 1/2 squares of dark chocolate on 50calotie bread. I let the melted chocolate harden on the bread and it was soooo delicious 😍
Anyways sorry for rambling. I have to sleep now! Hope everyone has a good weekend~ ❤️❤️💪🌟5 -
Sept. 7th
Exercise: Yes, really pushed myself tonight and walked on treadmill for 42 minutes! I'm not a fast Walker but I did manage to get 2 miles in! Just recently got a FitBit and I'll really focusing on my steps! I hit my goal today (thanks to the treadmill) of getting over 10,000 steps in!
Calories under: yes!
Tracked Everything: Yes! I did not eat the best things today, but I owned it! And at least I still came out under!
Tomorrow I am going to a Bigfoot Festival! Haha. Have no idea what to expect from it.
One thing I know is that I'm sure I'll be walking and getting a lot of steps in. Just hoping I don't go crazy with any bad foods they may have. I have no more pass days left!
Hope everyone has a great Saturday!4 -

Calories?: Yes
Tracked?: Yes
Busy work day at home today preparing for Spain. Quick walk before dark.
Had to prepare a presentation document in Spanish. Was complimented by the Spain team that it read very well and was not plagued by the contextual errors usually present with a machine translated document. I'm still a long way from fluency, but also now a long way from totally inept.
Fly out Sunday morning 5:00am and loads of work to do before I fly out.
Too much Zelda again tonight.

Pass Day #1 for me.
Rose and I were the hosts of 6 friends from India. Food is love and friendship. No regrets and no worries.

Pass Day 1 for me
Everyone faded on me for early morning rolling (cold and raining) and I faded on the option of doing strength training by myself. I planned to do some pt later but spent the morning running errands regarding my trip at the end of the month, including my travel vaccines. By the time I had finished all of that I was having a mild nausea reaction to the vaccines and faded on exercise.
Food all logged and under so 2 out of 3!4 -
Date: 9.7

Yes @RangerRickL lol, that's me on a friday, I get to walk to work and there are 6 beautiful pussycats at the house I clean on Fridays...
@scottie1568 are you being too hard on yourself? This takes time, maybe set your goals to a more manageable setting...
Exercise yes 30 min yoga 120 min cleaning 70 min walking fitbit has stopped working not happy...
Tracking yes
Calories no, the box of Maltesers gifted to me beckoned, well they had to be eaten sometime...and tbh I would rather have had flowers, will have to drop a subtle hint
Pass day #12 -
Sep 7
Yes x 3
Ex: 119 mins, 3 mile walk & errands & Active decluttering
Under 350
Track all
Habits, wisely developed, practiced, and refined, make it all so easy. Truly transformative! Habits remove the fear of regaining for me - Invaluable!!
An example:
Weighed a few walnuts to eat before bed after checking my calorie deficit. Paid a lot of attention to each bit of the 1st three but began to munch the 4th fast. Stopped, put it down, said good job to myself “why eat it if you’re not paying attention”. Sat down and focused on the remainder of that one & the final one.
This happened because:
1) I happily track everything I eat & have since at least Sept 25, 2017. Everything, to the gram.
2) I read up on nuts, realized they were good for me (unsalted, raw or dry roasted) and said, “OK, you can eat them if you track them & don’t go nuts with them. That’s the deal” so, weighing 15g of them was the result of over 2.5 years of managing my nut consumption.
3) I was really hungry. I tried water first, and some hot tea, so I used some of my deficit, but at end of the day I was still under by 350, so I’ve learned if I’m truly hungry before bed a few nuts & water will help me sleep. I can trust my hunger.
4) I’ve practiced eating mindfully for 2-2/3 years now. Paying attention to each bite. Savoring. Lingering. Pausing. I get annoyed if I have to eat in a rush. So I realized when I wasn’t being mindful & changed my behavior.
5) My self talk is positive & has a few phrases I use often. “why eat it if you’re not paying attention?” “Food won’t fix it— Really - you’ll just have two problems” “it’s not a race” “The Past is past” (let it go)

Not today Pass day x 13

Sept 7 - Pass Day 2
Exercised: Yes, 33 min walk with total of 7,144 steps for the day
Calories: Nope, had seconds at dinner.. + 200 cal over for the day
Tracking: Of course
So I'll just tell my type A personality to calm the heck down...lol. and remind myself that making it to the winners circle is NOT my goal, a healthy lifestyle is! My main focus for joining this challenge was to get up, get moving and commit to 20 mins of exercise a day. And I am 7 - 0! It feels good to start to exercise again, and I find I am actually looking forward to it everyday. For me that's a huge success, and I am embracing it!4 -
Exercise? Nope
Calories? Over
Tracking? Yes
Can I please have one of my "sick" days! I have injured my knee and was forbidden (from my dear husband) to get on the treadmill yesterday. So, my calorie deficit wasn't met either. I'm hoping to be able to at least ride my recumbent bike on Saturday.
