Thursday Check-in:
Calories: under, net carbs 18 grams
Water: over
Exercise: 30 minutes of 21-Day Fix (my body is hurting!!

Hi everyone! Today was super busy with work and I'm exhausted from this new exercise lifestyle I'm trying to do. I've completed 4 days of the 21-Day Fix and I'm super proud of myself. I get my new treadmill next week and I plan to use that and the videos and really try to get this weight off! Plus, I'm tracking my macros super strict and trying to learn what really works best for me.
Steps for 10/2- 9303

This is my 4th time trying to post to the group tonight, site's running funky so I'm not going to try responding to posts as they didn't go through before. Glad to see everyone doing well!
Calories borderline, totally overate today, I attempted to moderate food and ended up eating all of it.
Exercise awesome. I guess all my overeating fueled me well as I rode for the longest yet! I burned off my binge if I trust the calories burned (think it's over-exaggerated).
I'm thinking on the 5 things to focus on, I think it would be good for me. I wish Fitbit steps could translate bike pedals, it's my favorite exercise and I don't take a lot of steps. I've improved with eating more I'm just really hungry now. Makes no sense that eating more is making me hungrier. I think it's because I had my basic foods figured out and now I'm thinking about what to add to my meals and my eyes are bigger than my stomach. I definitely am still not in the mindset where I can moderate, I hope to get to that point eventually.0 -

@Wishusdonna - What a great day! And thank you for that lovely post!
Oh, and I found your time to yourself inspiring (Wild on Netflix plus knitting). Knitting is on my list of things to learn... 🧶
Thanks @AustinRuadhain! Actually, Wild reminded me a bit of some of the step challenges on the group, when we have those trail pictures posted featuring scenic routes in the US. Fair to say trekking the Pacific Crest Trail looks very different to the sorts of walks I like to do, which tend to be from this book, Northamptonshire Pocket Pub Walks. All on my doorstep, between 3 and 9 miles, no rattlesnakes, and start and finish in a lovely British country pub!
1. Time - got me a nap in the afternoon.
2. Exercise - managed to hit 26 active minutes and it triggered an actual exercise mark in Fitbit. 10191 steps.
3. yes - 9 drinks hit!
4. Trigger food - alcohol-free cider and coke at the bar.
5. Yays - primarily first gig back, even though the bar was cold and I felt sick.
Oh, and calories under too.0 -

My goal this month is to get below 250. I have been inconsistent the last couple of months but look forward to October. Fall is beautiful in MN where I live. I made apple crisp this last week and made sure I watched my portion. However, more enjoyable is hiking in the state parks and trails.
Nice loss!1 -
Tuesday Check-In
Steps 17,167
Calories: under I think (homemade is hard to track)
Carbs: over
Water: under
Exercise: bike 30 min, walk 30 min
Wednesday Goals
-get in a morning workout
-stick to my calorie budget.
I'm back to work at the chocolate store for the first time since Feb. If I try to abstain and have one piece I know I'll throw in the towel so I'm logging my food for the entire day and allowing myself what will fit in my budget. I'm also packing some healthy snacks which should help. Fingers crossed
Good luck. You are back to your legendary steps!! So happy to have you back!1 -

I am thrilled. Was not expecting a loss. I guess even though I wasn’t paying attention and tracking etc that some good old habits that are ingrained helped me through this week.
AMAZING!!!1 -

I’m hoping this loss is realistic with some of the choices I made this week - working out 3x, better carb choices, far less sugar. I came home sick from work yesterday - just a head cold - so didn’t eat much yesterday. I’m hoping the loss isn’t just that but will continue what I’m doing anyway.1 -
