Good (almost) afternoon everybody! @johicks and @MaelynMayhem your replies are amazing, and help keep me motivated to keep going!
I woke up this morning too late to go running because it’s already almost 90 degrees here, and I’m not trying to go running in that. I panicked for a minute about what to do, but then remembered I still have a wii with a dance game 😂😂😂, and if for some reason that doesn’t work I have an actual exercise dvd with Shaun T! Whew! I feel much better now! LOL
Good luck, and happy losing everybody!!0 -

It's been a hard week, I actually got down to 293.6 but we had a lot of poor eating and goodbye dinners as a couple of family members moved out of state. This week will be better.

@jwall309~ I love how you talk about balance and how you feel after a weekend of not so great choices. Good meal planning/ prepping! I am trying to do more of that when hubby makes too many carbs for my liking. Awesome!!
@Qbaimee ~ Good for you… 🚰🥤 How was the gym workout today?
@klilev~ You did good while on travel. What can we do to help on weekends and at night? How about a nighttime routine? Or that Late night snacking thread I posted?
@red1185~ Glad to hear that our posts are helping. That’s exciting to know. We want our @RunTrackMinds to be as successful as individuals and as a team! We all will be biggest losers!! Good back-up Plan A and B! What did you do to move?
@jupdyke@~ Wow! And you thought you were gonna gain
Oh weekends. Right! You can do it.
@Watchme1989~ Good start to the June challenge with a loss!! Family functions can be so hard!! Hopefully, we can help you figure out some strategies for future ones. Oh and PW = Previous weight. So next week your PW: 296.2 (this week’s current weight).
@Toyota100 ~ You’re so close to that under 220 goal! Have you set any other goals that are non-scale? Good loss, way to start the month.
@Nige1313~ Great day!!
@Perla4686 ~ Good job with your calories and exercise!

Well, today I ran a mile in about 12:09. A few years back my pace was a 9:30 min mile and I can’t wait to get closer to that!2 -

🙋 🌞 Good Morning team!! 😎 🌅 Let’s do this!
@jupdyke~ Other than the 4 hours of sleep, what a GREAT Monday! 👍 Hope you slept well and got your Tuesday off to a great start with your run. I have my dance video exercises cued and ready for when I am done with posting.
@skullsandskeletons~ No Monday blues for you, extra steps you've taken! 👏 Awesome!
@Maddiesmommy6611 ~ Way to MonSLAY! 👍 An exciting day for you to get closer to your run goal. I think it’s important to have goals that aren’t associated with just the scale. I see there that are other runners in our group too…. @jupdyke and @wander216
@wander216 ~ Good job on a Monday well done!
@JammyPea ~ Hope it helped! >>🤐<<
@MaelynMayhem & @ajaia2001 - Hope you are both safe. Not sure where the storms and flooding are or what havoc it's causing in your area. HUGS

Daily Post (Monday)
Track: Yes
Calories: Over, 1446/1380
Exercise: We went to the park with the intention of playing tennis, but there is only one court and it was taken when we got there. We strolled around the park for a bit waiting to see if it would open up but no such luck, so walked the long way home. Maybe we can get outside today to try again. We've had a break in the humidity and heat here in D.C., so we are trying to take advantage before it gets oppressively hot again by the end of the week.
Day: Solid day, convinced BF that we should use the giant steaks we bought at the grocery store as two portions instead of having one each so that helped with calories on the day. I also need to remember after dinner to wait before eating a snack or something sweet. Without fail once dinner ends I am already thinking about eating a little snack or a something sweet (sometimes even while eating dinner), since starting this journey I've started the habit of just waiting once dinner is over. Relaxing for awhile, drinking some water, finishing up chores, packing lunch for the next day, etc. Usually by the time I'm done all that the craving is gone, or if it is still around its for a much smaller snack that I had originally dreamed about. Hoping one day soon, I'll stop thinking I need snacks after dinner at all, but for now I will keep practicing this method.1 -
I wanted to share this video. These homemade gummie bears have really helped me tame my sweet tooth and curb my late night snacking. They're sweet, a little chewy, surprisingly filling, 0 net carbs and only 30 calories if you ate the whole batch. I'm guessing they had a lot to do with my 4lb loss this week so I wanted to share.

Daily post Tue - June 4
Tracked: yes
Calories: Well under - my fasting day
Exercise: no - rest day1 -
Mini challenge
Logging: mostly, except licking the bowl when making ice cream, can't help it
Calories: under by 6 so probably slightly over with the licking
Excercise: going to an hour long class tonight, mostly aerobic/dance and a bit of strength at the end.
So I guess if I count excersize calories, I'm still under, so pretty pleased...
Need to work on: planning meals better and be more organised.1 -
@LMDlove230 ~ Great way to start the month. Awesome sauce!
@Jactop ~ Nice loss! Wooohoooo! Way to go on Sunday’s mini-challenge. COOL VIDEO! Thanks for sharing.
@jwall309~ Yes… a good solid day!! I’m slowly getting better at no snack after dinner, slowly. You’re doing great! I love your posts. Thanks for sharing. Your journey is helping us look at things from a long-term perspective!
@Nige1313 ~ #trackingTuesday. Awesome!
@Perla4686 ~ your day was okay! When I meal prep I try to make two-three of the same thing for the entire week. I don't mind eating leftovers. For example, today when I made my breakfast of eggs & veggies scramble and washed & cut my strawberries, I went ahead made enough for today & tomorrow. Since I already had everything out.

Yes, that's exactly what I need to do! I just need to actually do it, not just say it.@Perla4686 ~ your day was okay! When I meal prep I try to make two-three of the same thing for the entire week.

I'm spending way too much time in the kitchen! Thanks for that!

Just might have to try these!! At work, they have a candy jar. It'd be nice to once in a while have a candy instead of saying "NO" all day long.1 -

Another thing I do is before sitting down for dinner, I wrap-up and portion the leftovers into either baggies for the freezer or plate/bowl for lunch or dinner the next day. That also helps for after dinner snacking if it's already put away.
And what realllllllly helps me the most is making my meals in the morning, plating, and pre-logging them. I try to make sure that I have some easy grab foods (baby carrots, salad stuff, etc.), frozen or canned veggies and my hubby always makes rice or pasta AND always protein from the grill. Those rotisserie chickens are super handy, too! I can make 4-5 meals from those.
Whenever in the kitchen, always have 2-3 three cooking. Big on freezing so that I have something easy for lunches.
Okay enough of me rambling. Good night.1 -
