    Have had lots of exercise so far this month, including several very long bike rides. Have been to stores that sell my binge triggering foods but have resisted buying any. Have had a few tasting bites here and there of food that was not planned for the day but no full out binges in a week. Despite eating at the calories and macros that have worked for me to stay at maintenance my weight is up a bit and not coming back down. Going to continue to focus on eating clean and moving my rear... I know that is how to deal with the scale!

    exercise 👍🏻 - will build shelves in studio
    weight 👍🏻 - staying out of the 180's, that's a start

    Yesterday - 8/13

    logging :noway: - was fine until evening munchies hit
    protein/fats/carbs 👍🏻 - all good, just too many of them
    exercise 👍🏻 - building shelves in studio, moving boxes, working up a sweat
    weight :ohwell: - staying out of the 178.5 - okay until Thursday night; dum, dum, dum....

    Let's see if I can buckle down today, Friday...

    8/14:
    on-plan: :disappointed: Le Grand Saboteur struck (a.k.a. my dear husband). So calories were a little up but not up-up-and-away.
    exercise: :innocent: 6 fast miles worth of Leslie Sansone. I do wish the weather would quit the nonsense so I could walk outside.

    Naturally, as soon as i started this challenge a few days ago, I threw my back out. l knew the second I did it...not using my legs to pick up a heavy bag. Arrrrgh!
    Still, I have learned a lot of tricks to minimize the fall out, and I'm still going forward with counting steps, just taking a lot of breaks and not focusing on duration, just doing something is good enough.
    Everything counts! I'm feeling committed and easing back in to moving my body...right off the couch...as often as possible. Even if it's just walking around in the house. It still counts.

    IF 👍🏻👍🏻
    Calorie/carb goal - ate at maintenance both days with carbs being too high. I let hubs talk me into bad choices.
    Close watch rings 👍🏻👍🏻 Couple of good move days with 16k and 19k steps. Snuck in some stretching today too for good measure.
