Well, that sucks, but isn't unexpected. Last week was rough - lots of stress and little time to track. I even missed a workout or 2. Luckily, i actually do expect to be back at my PW in a day or 2. Here's to a better week ahead!2 -

Reminder that if you're counting your calories - always weigh your food, even if (especially if!) it's prepackaged. I had a snack bag of popcorn that said one serving is one bag (17g) and was 80 calories. On a whim, I measured, and it turned out the amount of popcorn was 32g, nearly double! I know 80 calories isn't a huge difference, but measuring your food is important!3

80 calories in one day may not make much of a difference, but 80 added calories on a few items every day will! I have to say I don't normally measure pre-packaged food. I may have to start doing that though.0 -

⭐️Daily Post: Monday 6 May
✅Track: Yes
✅Calories: Under
✅Exercise: Not much today apart from 3x10 with dumbbells.
💬Comments: Because I done quite well this week with the weight loss, I treated myself to a new foundation I had been wanting for a while now. A long time ago I would have rewarded myself with food but now I have a little list of non-food items that I can treat myself to. It gives me something to look forward to 😃4 -

Week: May Week 2
SW= 172.6
PW =168.8
CW=165.4
Daily Post
⚡Track: Yes (EVERYTHING)
⚡Calories: over - I allow myself to go over since I exercise and my calories are already low.
⚡ Exercise:
-20 min of upper body (weights) before work
-30 min of cardio during lunch with a coworker
-30 body weight /dumbbell resistance and cardio activites after work with a friend
⚡Water: approx 84oz
🗣Comments/ goals:
Weight loss is slowing....
I assume, though, that whatever I lose now is fat as opposed to water weight so that's encouraging. I'm also exercising more than I probably should for a low carb plan so if the weight loss continues to stall I will dial it back. Will reassess in 2 weeks. On a side note, when you see me do extra workouts (more than one), it's because I'm a workout buddy to more than one person and I'm trying to be helpful and accommodating! Hopefully being helpful doesn't have an effect on my own goals.
I went for my first run for the season, yesterday. It was a beautiful day!

Calories: yes, under
Exercise: stairs at work and 250 squats

Made today a light eating day. I am going out to eat on Wednesday, so I am trying to compensate for the extra calories by eating less earlier in the week. I guess we will see what happens!!3 -

Being on a low carb diet shouldn't cause you to limit how much you work out.1 -

@aadubb I eat low carb (less than 20g a day) and I lift weights an hour 5 days a week and walk for at least 6 days a week for an hour, low carb won't hinder exercise, maybe in the beginning, you'll feel sluggish until your body gets used to low carbs, but your body will adapt...believe me.2 -

Jason--- I feel the same way ---today I was a little better (although I did eat chocolate after dinner🤦🏻♀️).... but ever since Easter it's been tough to shake sugar/food in general really--- one day at a time.1
