Here is my first daily post (hope I do this right, let me know if I didn’t!!)
Track: Yes - every day since Dec 26 📝
Calories: Yes (do you want my total weekly total # here? I’ve been tracking since Dec 26 and have been under each day so far)
Exercise: Yes - every day. Walked in the snow yesterday with 🐶 - brrrr! Haven’t done that in a while!!! CrossFit x3 days, walking 30 minutes on non gym days. I’ve decided not to have mfp credit me calories for my fitness. That made a big difference for watching my food closer - and will make a bigger defecit for calories. I do have a Fitbit if anyone wants to do Fitbit challenges 🚶♀️
Goals or Day: planning to do meal prepping today to have 3-5 days worth of dinners done ✅ also today is a gym day 🏋️♀️
Your weekly weigh in is Wednesday - so no scale today 🎉
** Think of the “After Selfie” !! **
@stongersue for the daily posts, you just have to put in if you were under or over calories for the day
Great food and exercise plans!!!1 -

Looking back, I was the most successful when I tracked my food the MFP and chose what I was eating myself. I would have a slice of pizza - with a side of veggies or salad. It wasn’t eating 3 pieces or trying not to ever eat pizza again - too extreme both ways.
I have done a few good natural detoxes (cutting sugar and bread and eating lots of veggies and protein etc) which do make me feel better, but I can’t sustain a really restrictive diet for long.
I’m a little under the weather right now, but I know I can choose better foods which I’m sure will help clear up this cough/cold. I’m trying to regain my spark, force it if I have too. My goal is to loose 20 pounds by May 31st and consistently exercise where it’s just part of my routine.
I wish everyone great success in all of your goals!! We can do this 😊
@RoseyandReady I also don't do a restrictive diet, just staying within calories of what I like. I find if I cut something out, I can't think of anything else and end up giving up on everything. Some people do great with it, but you have to do what works best for you.
Hope your cold is feeling better 1 -

I don't understand how I could have lost that much in a little over a week, but I am using the same scale at the same time of day, and that's what it says. Can it be "water weight," partly? I thought that was only at the beginning, though, and I've been losing for a few months now. Can tracking my calories have made that much of a difference? I'm a little boggled by this.
I step on the scale AT LEAST 3 times before settling for a number. Sometimes I'll get all the same numbers, sometimes I'll get three different ones, and If thats the case, I settle for the most reasonable one, not the one with the most weight lost. Try weighing yourself again tomorrow, and if there's a huge change between today's and tomorrow's, it may be best to invest in a new scale.
On another note, hello again! Back for the new year to finish losing the last 40 pounds of my 100 pound journey I set out to lose for 2018. December got away from me, but I'm focused and ready to kick some *kitten* this year. Plus I'm going on vacation in March to motivate me to stick to it lol
@justkris_gettingfit I wrote you in the December thread and sent you a PM...I need a starting weight and weigh in day in order to get you back on the spreadsheet. Thanks!
I must have missed that, sorry.
SW: 170.6
Weigh in Day: Wednesday

Starting weight 183
(Sunday Dec. 30th because I just found this challenge)
Current weight 183 (Monday Dec. 31st)
Next Monday Jan.7th will be an actual week.
I logged today, very good to see where my calories have been coming from and how mindless/emotional eating has increased my weight! Logging felt good and I ate soooo much better!
No exercise - awful sore throat/ears/cough!
Drank a lot of ginger water and clear tea.

I really did well this week and I hope I can keep my motivation up. I made sure I walked each lunchtime and did meal prep to stay under my calorie goal. I am going to try to work in some strength training this week and some Leslie Sansone videos. It is so hard to make time for this stuff but I know I somehow did it before when I was down 40 lbs. I just have to stop procrastinating. I am going to try to cut out alcohol this week since the holidays are finally over.5 -

Looks like I gained some since my previous weight before the start of this challenge. It's ok. I should be back on track by Week 2. I just want to be transparent. I weighed myself December 30, 2018 to stay on my Sunday routine.
