So I ran into the ottoman in front of our bed Saturday am. I was concerned about the area bruised on my foot, I know you can’t do much for a broken pinky toe. So X-rays this am and luckily only my little toe is broken. I have to take it easy for 4-6 weeks, but I can exercise, just nothing high impact. So I’ll probably be stretching, water aerobics, strength training. I’ll keep plugging along😊
So I did get some rest in today!

15 success: 15 pass
May
5 success: 13 pass
I'm nursing an injury so limited exercise. Food wise I've eaten over my calories and I haven't tracked.
Today will be a better day!6 -
@goldthistime @w8goal4life
lol not using exercise calories was difficult at first. I will eat back some when I do more then hour of really intense cardio.
Someone in this group wrote something about eating to fuel exercise because I love to exercise not exercising to eat more because I love eating. I’m definitely paraphrasing but it really clicked for me and changed how I viewed my exercise eat backs.
For right now this is what is best for me. I still have about 35lbs to get to goal weight. If I’ve learned anything on this journey (down 85lbs) it’s that I have to be flexible and open to change my approach as my body changes. Three things that don’t change- exercise every day, track everything and eat at or below my calorie goal.

I'll be posting a "catch-up entry" on May 21
I think I took the "Let yourself rest" a bit TOOO much to heart lately .... especially in the "rest from food diary logging" context .... although the bike time has been sufficient that maintenance is still pretty stable.1 -
@craigo3154 Congratulations!
@w8goal4life Beautiful pictures! Thanks
@MadisonMolly2017 Thanks. This is very encouraging and a reminded to me that there are other ways to care of that feeling.1 -

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Not a conscious workout.
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? It is more of a guess. I don't like that.
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? No proper tracking.
Today is an unplanned pass. I had so many meetings that there was no time for my regular workout, tracking, etc. I even ate late! which is a no no for me because I feel very uncomfortable and/or bloated the next day. This is really a lesson for me.
I need to track before the day starts. I have found this method very successful in times past. I planned my meals for the day and then I track them. That way I am in control of anything that comes into my mouth even on very busy days.
I plan my workout and modify if needed as the day unfolds. Because, it is planned, I always succeed.
I need to look at other ways for moving/exercises. There are many options out there.- https://darebee.com/ (use my printouts)
- YouTube (there are many short workouts)
- Walk up and down the building, stairs, etc.
- Oh O too many options to list ....
I guess the lesson for me here; is plan, plan, plan and plan
Pass day 2/3 (this is for accountability to myself and my records)
