    Daily report Sunday
    Track: no
    Calories: way over, fell off the wagon completely and literally ate everything in sight.
    Excersize: C25K W8R3 done. I'm hoping that at least my workouts might keep me in maintainance until I sort my head out and get back on track.
    Have a great week everyone!

    *sigh* This is a bit of an artificial gain than I suspect will come off pretty quickly. I ate out almost every day last week, which is super unusual for me. It wasn't planned, just sorta how events fell together this week, and my weight always leaps up the day after eating out.

    One thing I did well: I did a good job of controlling my eating around a lot of unplanned eating out - not letting the fact that I was already off my meal plan for the day derail me any further.
    One thing to improve: Be better about counting calories
    Goal: Post here at least four times

    Calories: Right on
    Exercise: 30 min walk and abs.
    Pretty good day today. Still sticking to the shred plan. Frustrated I don't have my plan for next week yet, but hopefully it comes by morning so I know what I'm eating tomorrow. Said goodbye to my parents today because they are heading south for the winter. Also my coteacher is officially on maternity leave tomorrow, so now it myself and her sub. I'm blessed with a good sub, but I sure will miss my partner.

    One thing I did well: got a lot of steps in!
    One thing to improve: I have been on vacation since Sept 2nd and boy did we eat a LOT. All of the walking is the only reason I didn't gain 15lbs instead of just 5 😅 I am going to try hard to not let this derail me and jump back into a healthy life style. It's going to be hard as I'm still craving all that bad food

    Weekend Update

    The weekend was spent celebrating my new job and my birthday so safe to say things went off the rails. My actual birthday is tomorrow and BF and I are going to Montana for a wedding on Thursday. So this week I’ve decided to do my best but to not stress and enjoy it before summer comes to an end and I get back into a healthy routine for the Fall and Winter. Because I will be traveling I also am going to skip weigh in this week @johicks and @Pearl4686! After this week I’ll be back and ready to really buckle down on this journey!

    You've got the right attitude, we still need to enjoy life, right? Now get back on the wagon!

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: Yes. I decided to start C25K about ten minutes into a walk this morning and finished the first day. I'd been planning on waiting until the heat broke, at least a little, to start running again, so we'll see if I can keep this up.
    Healthier habits: I finished all my meal prep for the week.
    Goals or Day: Both yesterday and today were super productive. I've felt very unproductive all last week, so it's nice to get a lot done over the weekend and start the week without a lot of tasks still hanging over my head.

    Great Monday. It was a fast day at work and a very busy night with the kids and food prepping. We survived though. Another crazy day tomorrow. I stuck with the food and exercise plan.

    Back to reality this morning!

    This week is going to be tough: super busy at work to make up for yesterday off coupled with not having the weekend to plan out food etc. But, I'm determined to have 4 on plan days!

    Log it, log it, log it!

    Woohoo you're doing great! C25K is a bit like marmite, I find, people either love it or hate it. I personally love it and hope you can keep it up. It's hard work but can make you feel so good!

    That's impressive, I struggle on 'hungry' days. Any tips?

    Although not eating sounds great, we all know that's not a good idea. Can you find some time to prepare packed meals ahead? On crazy days I like 'one handed foods' which I can eat while doing other things. Sandwiches, hard boiled eggs, veggies in hummus, cups of soup are some ideas.

    What I did yesterday was to just go to bed at 7:30 pm. I played games on my phone to keep my mind occupied until I got sleepy.

    Hey team how is everyone doing?
    Thanks for the tip @skullsandskeletons , I definitely need to go to bed earlier!

    Daily report
    Track: yes
    Calories: under but food choices not great
    Excersize: yes, fat burn class 1 hour.
    What went well: stayed under calorie and drank my water.
    What can improve: make better choices so I stay satisfied for longer. Stick to plan!

    What has helped me get back on track: I increased my calories a little, so my deficit is smaller but it gives me a little more leeway with food. It's a mental thing more then anything. Instead of 'sod it, day is ruined' when I eat too much, now I'm still 'under', so I chug on. Anyone else play mental games with themselves? I wish I didn't...
