Hi friends, so glad this thread is always here when I can get my act together.
Goals this round, to lose 1 pound.
Day/Weight/Comment
08/25 193.4 estimated total calories: 1505
08/26 193.4 I have to take a break from running due to stupid plantar faciitis which is super depressing. BUT I'm doing a 30 day no alcohol challenge and I'm interested to see if that makes it easier to lose. So far I miss my glass of wine while cooking but some days are easier than others. I am going to try to get back into lifting at the gym since I can't run, I tried the elliptical on Monday but foot hurt for two days after so probably gonna give that one some more time still. Calorie goal: 1400
08/27 194.0 well the scale was up today, but my BF % was down so that means there's a little water weight hanging around . I'm still on a downward trend and getting ready for TOM so a momentary blip is expected. Still sleeping in the dreaded night splint, I had less foot pain today so maybe I can hit the gym tomorrow and avoid a flare up. Calories were over yesterday by 400 due to chocolate snack after dinner, did I mention TOM? Upping the water today.
08/28 193.2 drinking my water, still giving my foot a break from any stress. I don't have a plan for dinner tonight which isn't good, bc that means I want to stand in the pantry and eat snack (not helpful, I know! ) better come up with one before I get too hungry!
08/29 192.4 I felt very happy to see this number on the scale after many days higher. Let's hope it sticks around and isn't destroyed by my salty lunch today, bc I'm on track to stay around 1200 calories - missed breakfast (accidentally), split chicken fajitas with a friend and brought leftovers home for the hubs, and just a little yogurt with fruit for dinner.

Goal for this round is to stay focused for the whole 10 days, stick to what I know, and hopefully see the numbers drop!
08/25 - 79.1kg, I've started CICO again since Sunday and feeling good!
08/26 - 78.5kg, I'm seeing a lot of dropping very quickly but I feel like it'll creep up a little or plateau very soon. Likely losing a lot of water weight but it feels good regardless!
08/27 - 78.4kg, happy to still see a decrease. I've been sticking to my calorie limits but probably not drinking as much water as I should
08/28 - 78.5kg, as expected the initial water weight probably fell off and now balancing out. Staying strong!
08/29 - didn't weigh as I had a night away from home. Didn't count calories on 28th or today
08/30 - 79.4, didn't count Friday/Saturday so I'm not surprised, also low water intake and a bit of alcohol so everything is out of whack. Back to it today, hopefully see a better number tomorrow

When you get this uncomfortable in your skin AND your clothes, you know you need a little extra accountability, and this forum is helping, tremendously!
Been making myself go for walks (or do workout videos) when my hurtin' body would rather say "No." Because my BMR is so low, I've been really cognizant of what is going in my mouth (and I'm not putting something in there-out of sheer boredom!) I've decided that I really don't enjoy exercising all that much! But, I've seen so much improvement in how my clothes fit over the past 15 days, that I'm NOT giving up now! Super excited to be getting back into my "real" wardrobe, after an umpteen year hiatus...

🏖🎡💕💖💕 AUGUST 💕💖💕🎡⛱
🌾🎍🌵🌴🌳💕💖💕🌳🌴🌵🎍🌾
Looking forward:
I'm just too danged cussed to let this thing knock me back, and ruin all the effort I have put in to get here. I am stepping up my routine, and taking control. Sheltering in place means I can fully concentrate on getting in my exercise, and preparing healthy food.
August focus: improving stamina, strength, flexibility, which may impact the scale
Aims:
2020 Focus:Never give up! Never give in!- Stabilise weight around 145
- Strengthen strategies to reframe the tendency to use unhealthy snack food as a reward/treat.
- Make sure I have prepared healthy snacks available
- Cut down on eating between meals by keeping busy
Recent Back Story:2018 goal: get back down to 160 ✅JGM10D ~|~ Round 124
2019 goal: proceed down to 150 ✅ with 2 months to spare
2020 goal: maintain below 150 dropping slowly down to 145 ✅ Working on it. Strength training has slowed progress, but that’s okay.
That's a WIN in my book!
2020
Focus: maintenance! I might even manage to lose a bit more ever so slowly.🔹Posting weight and comments each evening.

THERE ARE NO QUICK FIXES OR SHORTCUTS to achieving permanent change.
REMINDERS One or two thoughts which might give heart to some of you.Stick with the process. It DOES work! But it does take time, effort, and most of all, patience!- Daily weight fluctuations are normal, and can be as much as 2 lbs a day for no apparent reason.
- A general downward trend is what we are looking for.
- Eating out can cause apparent weight gain because of high sodium levels, but usually goes quickly. Drinking extra water helps with this.
- The human body does not react instantly to what we do to it. Sometimes it can take several days to see results.
- Plateaus are a normal part of the process. The body is consolidating and adapting to your new way of eating/exercising.
- The closer you get to your goal weight, the more difficult it becomes to lose weight, as your body becomes more efficient at using what you feed it.
- When you exercise you build muscle, which takes up less space than fat, so use measurements as well as weight to assess your progress.
- Getting/Staying fit and healthy requires a lifestyle change for most people.

I'm in! Thank you, @GrandmaJackie!
70 year old female...5'5" ...I used to be 5'7" but arthritis hit and I lost two inches, so now that two inches is squished around my waist like the billows of a big accordion...
...Oh, well. I'll just keep working on it.
We used to walk 5 miles a day. Recovered from back surgery then hip surgery!! Got back to walking then I sprained my ankle. UGH! hurt! I was down for 6 weeks with the ankle.
The Shelter in Place has everyone freaked. We need to remain calm and respectful of each other.

Female age 62 5' 4” - Achieved goal weigh of 125lb in summer 2016 by losing 66lb and have gradually gained between 7 and 11 since then; I don't want to gain any more, but would like to get back to my goal weight – I'm working at it – it's a permanent way of life !
Goal for this round – to lose a pound. Stick with good habits: be mindful of what I eat & drink, keep walking, no binges, keep the 10 days binge free again, it makes such a difference!

Day/Weight/Comment
08/25 133 – 8.64 miles walked yesterday, chocolate got the better of me last night (sigh!). DGS back in theatre for liver biopsy today, bloodwork figures indicate possible rejection, biopsy will confirm/deny, if it is rejecting they can prescribe additional drugs to reverse, keeping fingers and everything else crossed.
08/26 132.4 – Walking non existent! Storm Francis forced me back home, I don't like walking in the rain and with blustery gusting wind it was even worse, that together with lunch out with my sisters meant that I was 386 calories, 23g carbs & 42g fat over. DGS is well in himself, awaiting liver biopsy results, hopefully today.
08/27 131.8 - 10.2 miles walked yesterday, 48 calories in credit, but 37g carbs & 10g fat over. But more importantly, DGS liver biopsy results showed that there is no signs of rejection – hurray !!
08/28. 132.2 - 4.29 miles walked yesterday, 142 calories in credit, 11g carbs over. Best news - DGS discharged from hospital yesterday 👏👏👏👏👏. Still long way to go, weekly hospital appts etc, but such a big step 😁.
08/29. 133.6 - 4 miles walked yesterday. 180 calories, 10g carbs & 8g fat over, I celebrated yesterday!!
08/30 133.6 - 12.86 miles walked yesterday, 750 calories in credit.

08/25 145.4 I haven't really lost anything in days, and I feel a spike coming on. Maybe a big one. Why is it so hard to get motivated right now?
08/26 146.0 Setting out all my water for the day in advance. Going to acknowledge that I am having a problem with sugar binges so I can get to work on it. If anyone has tips, I'd welcome them! I almost feel like I must be deficient in some vitamins/minerals because these cravings are strong.
08/27 144.8 What worked for me yesterday: (1) setting out my water in advance and DRINKING it (half with Crystal Light). (2) Actually logging my food and staying in my calorie limit. I haven't cleaned up what I'm eating terribly much, but every day I remain in my calorie limit is a win (and maybe a loss- the good kind!).
08/28 145.4 Ah, well, my trend line is still spiking down, so I'm not having anxiety over these little bobbles.

Still a bit unwell, so no walking yet. I'm finding it easier not to snack in the evenings, which makes staying under my limit much easier.
26/8 128.2kg
Wanting to eat my feelings today. Instead I watched bad tv and sat with them. Hopefully I will feel a bit less overwhelmed tomorrow.
27/8 127.8kg
Finally got out of the house today, I haven't been out since Wednesday last week. Still really stressed.
28/8 128.4kg
A big bounce today. Our tap water is brown today, so takeaway for dinner. Still trying for higher protein choices, and only had half the mashed potato.
29/8 128.0kg
Nice to see that the bounce was short lived. Went swimming with the kids this morning, which was awesome. The pool had been closed since March, and I had definitely been missing it.
30/8 127.9kg
Today, after 3 weeks and 1 day, my trend hit my "in 5 weeks" goal that I got on the first day. I am also feeling all the muscles that I haven't used in months while the pool was closed. I will try to get back there tomorrow.

08/28 197.4 I stayed in a deficit yesterday (612 calories in deficit according to MFP and Fitbit combined), but had a lot of carbs. The next few days will indicate if this is a real gain or if it's water.
08/29 197.2 Ate at maintenance yesterday. I figure any day I lose or maintain is a great day. The scale might fluctuate, but eating at maintenance or at a deficit is within my control.
08/30 196 Deficit of just over a thousand calories yesterday. I ate a lot and burned a lot between housecleaning and bike ride. Lots of carbs but that's not seeming to matter today.

08/29 173.6 lbs still going in the wrong direction! However, my scales show my body fat percentage and that is going down so I think it must be water weight. I had a bottle of sparkling water yesterday and I think that has a lot of sodium in it. Libra keeps moving my goal date a month at a time!

08/25 231.8 Though I walked 3.36 miles yesterday morning my Apple watch did NOT consider it exercise LOL Stopping to talk to neighbors, dog potty, dropping off book at library, light at intersection and not using pause on the watch when stopping … I guess it thinks I strolled too much. Overall I did get 12300 steps total yesterday. Today I must walk more purposefully!
08/26 231.2 3 mile walk but ran into friends again … some decided to walk with me. A couple of glasses of wine with dinner. Broke my dry spell this month.
08/27 231.2 Walked 3 miles, biked, gardened/digging, hand weights … still seem to be stuck around 231. Hoping to drop into the 20s soon!
08/28 231.5 Only I Can Change My Life, No One Can Do It For Me
08/29 231.2 On target every day this week with tracking calories & carbs, no snacking between meals or after dinner, exercise, and water. My body must just love this number ... been here many times over the past 5 years and it is like a comforting place for the scale or something. I'm not giving up ... going to push through this time around!
08/30 230.0 Yeah! I broke through after 7 days. Note to self: Don’t let a temporary plateau play mind games with you when you know that you are not cheating but the scale is not moving.9 -

A friend brought a gorgeous big vine-ripened cantaloup yesterday — mmmmm. Also tomatoes and peppers. I see a beautiful salad in my future! 🥗 We’re under a heat advisory today and it’s already hot, so I’m not walking unless it cools down this evening, but I can garden in spurts and run in to cool off. I’m also refinishing some nightstands & end tables & trying to decide on a color for our bedroom, which I want to repaint — plenty to do! Have a great week, all!
8/26 - 182.2 😐 - 1499 🙂 - snack 🍿🍨🙁
I don’t know why I had to have ice cream last night. Maybe the hot hot day, but that’s just a flimsy excuse. Still, I hit my calorie goal, if barely. No walk — a friend came over and we sat out in the garden to catch up and enjoy the beautiful evening. Not bad, all in all.
8/27 - 182.8 😐 - 1920 😡 - snacks 🍿🍨😡
Food, glorious food, and way too much of it. The ice cream was definitely emotional, and of course I know that giving in only makes me feel worse. What was so depressing, you might wonder? I’m trying to choose a paint color for our bedroom. Gaaaa! I want something cheery to wake me happy in the morning. Yellow or green, but holy cow, it’s hard to find the right one! So I have 5 different colors painted in patches on all four walls, and still haven’t decided! So, ice cream. Ha! Compared to events in other parts of the country, my petty concerns are nothing, I know. I hope everyone here is safe.
8/28 - 182.8 😐 - 1330 🙂 - snack 🍿🙂
Better yesterday, food wise. I found my yellow and the painters come Monday. Yay! I can’t wait to get rid of the dark blue-gray we inherited. (It may have looked better when new, but I find it depressing). Now I’m on the prowl for some new artwork to brighten it up, and a small pedestal table to paint to match the nightstand I painted a soft white. Trying to wake up cheerful! That helps me not want to gobble everything in sight. (See, this is on topic!)
8/29 - 182.4 😐 - 1529 😐 - snack 🧀
We finally got a good rain last night and it’s a gorgeous morning. I’m hoping the ground has softened up so I can dig out The turf from my border expansion without kidding myself. I just want to be outdoors as much as possible, knowing we’re only a few weeks from cold weather. Have a lovely, safe weekend, all.

08/25 196.6 I'm up a whole pound from yesterday. Fluctuations I suppose 🤷♀️ Have a good day all!
08/26 194.8 Woosh! I think I was holding onto some water for a few days.
08/27 193.4 My goal for today is to get better with water intake. I've been slacking a little. I'm still not drinking soda though!
08/28 193.4 I did great with water yesterday. On track to do pretty good today as well. Happy Friday! Hope you all have a great weekend.
08/29 193.6 I haven't been making great food choices the last few days but I haven't gone over my calories. Lots and lots of carbs though. My feet are swollen and feel like they're going to bust open. I'm guessing because my overkill of carbs?? So today my goal is watch my macros as much as my calories.
08/30 194.0 I did good yesterday with carbs, sodium, calories, and water. My feet aren't as swollen today either. I dont like seeing that bump but I'm hoping its normal fluctuations. We are headed to our lake lot today to get some work done so I should burn a lot. Happy sunday!

It will be another couple days before I get back on the saddle. Hope I don't break the horses legs. Ha! I did walk a long way yesterday on a nice hike. Searching for Petoskey Stones. Also found a little critter. Beautiful colors. Trying to post a photo, but phone app not cooperative. Maybe the link below will work.

Previous days08/25 116.6 I went for another walk this morning because I just wasn’t feeling a higher intensity workout today. I even made a chicken friend along the way. It was so funny and made my morning! He was quite friendly too. Luckily, I saw a couple who lived in the neighborhood and told me it was okay for him to be roaming around. I was worried about him running away from home lol.
Typical breakfast planned. My snack is going to be a caprese salad because we got gorgeous tomatoes and basil in our csa. I think dinner will be some sort of steak tips, but not sure what we’ll have with them. Most likely salad because we also got lots of greens with the CSA. Have a good Tuesday!
08/26 (posted on 8/27) 115.8 Getting back down to 114 would be so nice, but I guess I’ll take it one pound at a time. Ups and downs are normal but so annoying haha. Food was on point yesterday and today should be too. I’m making pulled pork for diner and looking forward to it. I think I’ll make some sort of slaw to eat with it and top it with some zucchini refrigerator pickles I made a few weeks back.
08/27 115.6 Didn’t end up posting my blurb yesterday. I wrote it out but never had a minute to post it. We went on a nice walk in the woods today for our workout. It was lovely 😊. Today is another busy day and we are having some left over pulled pork for dinner with salad, black beans, and tomatoes. Yum! Have a good day!
08/28 116.8 Awesome workout this morning and will be getting a 3 mile walk in later today as I walk to pick up my car that’s in the shop. It’s a gorgeous day, so I figured why not get the extra walk versus have my husband give me a ride.
So, I think I’m going to try and lose super slow (already happening) because with my mother in law being in the hospital/sick people have been continuously bringing food by and I can’t control that because that’s life. Her friends want to help us all out and their kindness is truly appreciated….but it’s not too kind on my hips. I’ve been able to essentially maintain this month since the food train has started, but it’s hard to lose when you have no idea of the recipe. In the meantime, until the onslaught of food stops, I’ll just keep on doing what I am doing and track as much as I can. It’s also really hard to say no to take-out when you it’s put right in front of your face and you know it’ll be wasted if you don’t eat it. So that’s my food venting for the day.
Any ways have a happy Friday and I’m going to go eat my granola, fruit, and yogurt!
08/29 116.0 Already got a spin bike workout in this morning. Today will be a day filled with chores so that I can have a lazy day tomorrow. Dinner tonight will be left over pulled pork with broccoli and a tomato & greens salad. The dinner train dropped off baked pasta last night which was very rich but I had a giant tomato sliced with some fresh mozzarella before the pasta to help fill me up. It worked well because I was able to have a reasonable serving with one meatball. I felt very satisfied after eating it all, but I didn’t feel like I did much damage. I even managed to lose some water weight overnight 😊. Have a good weekend!
08/30 115.0 I’ll take the whoosh 😊. My husband and I went for a 4 mile walk this morning and just finished watching a soccer game we DVR’d last night. Solid day so far! Breakfast/lunch will be the last of the baked pasta with 2 meatballs, my snack will be left over canned pumpkin with yogurt and granola, and dinner will be a big salad and 2-3 fried eggs.
I downloaded Happyscale to get a different view of my weight data. It’s interesting the different views and options you have to observe the trends. I just splurged on the one-time payment for their premium option and I already love the extras! So, that’ll be a fun app to look at each day as well. It has me reaching my “running average” 110lb goal in May of next year, and I’m okay with that. I just need to remind myself that I’m not in a race.
I feel the best I have about my body and health (except for my borderline high cholesterol of 202 I just found out about, although the ratio is decent and the HDL is at a good level, so not too worried). In relation to my cholesterol, I’m going to start bringing more healthy fats (I eat plenty of fiber so I know I don’t need more of that to help my cholesterol) into my diet because those will help my cholesterol levels. I had borderline high cholesterol in the past, but reversed it with diet and exercise in my early 20s… now it has creeped back at 29 almost 30. I think with all of the calorie counting, I have been shying away from including as much healthy fats than I used to which could have had an impact on my cholesterol levels. Or my levels were higher back in April when I started this but I will never know. I would hope that losing ten pounds and exercising most days of the week has had a positive effect though. Who knows! That’s my book of a post today. Have a happy Sunday!

08/30 - 153.9 - Dehydration water retention. Unexpected trip to the river to beat the heat in some water. Besides my body holding on to water from being in it for hours, I didn't have much water to drink. My one water bottle emptied quickly and only a couple cans of sparkling water were brought (I was told there was water, just not told there was very little and we had 2 young kids that need it, too). Didn't have much at all breakfast wise, was still a bit hungry after my small on the go. Lunch was nonexistent so almonds and beer nuts at the river was all I had to snack on. Dinner was large homemade beef and venison burgers which made me feel quite heavy and full. At least I don't feel overly bloated, just waterlogged. Hopefully that means a nice quick drop once I drink enough water -- focusing on that today. Going to attempt to replant my veggies in my raised garden bed today. Right now they're sitting in pots inside the garden bed. Storms last weekend prevented me from getting it done, but it desperately needs it.

Previous Day's Comments08/25 - Quite alright. Starting off with a sodium bump. BF made dinner last night and apparently the flow restriction top of the worcestershire sauce came off while he was adding it, only to dump a bit too much in there and could taste the extra saltiness of it. Focusing on water today, again, and finding activity to get moving. Didn't sleep well at all, though my fitbit says I had the best sleep in a long while. Obviously false as it read I was in "REM" but I definitely looked at the time and was awake during that period. Hoping I can wake up fully and enough to not be lazy and dragging all day.
08/26 - Little tick down. Dinner was a bit heavy, taco bell recreations. Surprised I dropped any at all. Water wasn't too great and no activity. Work got really crazy and I have a feeling work is going to get crazy again today but I have a workout date with Fam this morning to offset the madness.
08/27 - Yay, another drop and now at goal weight for the round -- challenge is to keep it at or under this. Today is my Friday since I don't work Fridays and therefore a nice long weekend to screw things up if I'm not careful/diligent. I ALMOST reached my goal for water but also gave myself a bit of a stomach ache with all the water I was drinking after a very filling dinner. Plus, I didn't want to have to wake up and use the bathroom. I have issues with insomnia enough without bodily functions adding to it. Goal is to get a walk in today.
08/28 - Whoosh! That was entirely unexpected, especially since I went back for seconds on the homemade chicken tikka marsala at dinner. First round was with some basmati rice, second was toned down with just the chicken in sauce/gravy. But, as usual with Indian food, I figured I'd gain. Guess it wasn't as calorie-laden as I thought(I looked up various recipes for it online and averaged them for dinner)? My estimated calories were barely under goal and I didn't end up getting the walk in I wanted due to work being hectic so I'm really surprised. Just barely hit my goal of 4 water bottles (16.4oz steel bottle - Save the Earth!) but I need to find a way to sneak in an extra 10oz to hit my rounded half-body weight in oz goal. Just happy I was able to get the 4 bottles in finally [insert happy dance]! Let's see if I can get through the weekend and maintain. Back on my IF attempt (its so hard to do on weekends and today is part of my weekend).
08/29 - Not unexpected. Dinner out due to a sudden change in plans and it was very carby. Also cheesy so that induced bloating due to my sensitivity to lactose. Also a couple beers over the day instead of my usual 1 with dinner. Missed my 64oz water goal by about 7oz. All good, as long as I can overcome it through the remainder of the weekend.

Round 124 SW: 182.3 (on 8/24/20)
08/25 – 181.1 – Starting off pretty well for this round! I’m hoping this drop will stick.
08/26 – 180.3 - - I’ve been making sure to get in my 3 goals of calories, steps & water, and it looks like that has been working.
08/27 – 180.0 – Whoooo!! MFP says I’ve now lost 51% of my target! It took me 11 weeks to get half-way there!
08/28 – 179.8 – Yes, yes! I am starting to see the 170s!
08/29 – 179.6 – I have had great trajectory this week. I am going to be extra careful on my calories today because my son’s birthday is tomorrow. Pizza and cake is what he has requested for the day, so that’s what he will get
08/30 – 180.4 – Not sure what happened here, because I kept within my normal calorie window. That just shows you that these fluctuations happen even when we’re careful. We have a birthday celebration in the house today so watch out tomorrow

Day/Weight/Comment
08/25 - 144.5
08/26 - 145 - Calories have been good, so I'm hoping this is just some water retention.
08/27 - 144.5 - OK, I'm trending lower this week.
08/28 - 145.5 - Sigh. I've tracked my food all week and stayed within weight loss calories. I did start a cardio routine this week, so I'm hoping this is some DOMS. Also, I've been eating watermelon which, although low in calories, is high in sugar and carbs. I have a patio birthday party for my daughter on Sunday and my husband is making meatball subs for supper tonight, so I'm going to have to really watch what I eat the rest of the weekend along with drinking ALL the water.
08/29 - 144.5 - I did not want to weigh this morning. I woke up with swollen fingers from the sodium last night. I was so surprised when I saw my weight I checked again on my other scale. The watermelon and meatballs are all gone now and I'll just plan for a cupcake at my daughter's party tomorrow.
08/30 - 142.5 - Well, whoosh! I've been at this long enough to know it will bounce back up, but this really helps my trend line.

Ultimate Goal Weight = 134
Round 124 Goal = Under 176
Day/Weight/Comment
08/25 = 178.0 (down 2.4 from yesterday) Nice "loss" from yesterday but really that was an inflated number from the weekend overeating. Still up .3 from Friday's weight. But happy it is heading in the right direction!
08/26 = 177.1 (down .9 from yesterday) Went on a run yesterday with my husband and ate well & within my calorie range all day but eventually went over as we had wine and & a snack later in the evening. Expect the number to bump up tomorrow, as it usually take 2 days for the scale to reflect that for me.
08/27 = 177.9 (up .8 from yesterday), there's the slight uptick I was expecting from Tuesday night's over indulgences. Yesterday was an okay day calorie wise but was in the higher part of my allowed calorie range. Wanted to go for a run as it was great weather and supposed to storm all day today but husband's knee can't do two runs in a row, so we are hoping the weather cooperates today.
08/28 = 177.2 (down .7 from yesterday) Last Friday when I weighed in, I was 177.7 so only down a half pound these last 7 days but most of this week was spent getting the scale to come down after a weekend filled with high caloric takeaways. But I've been consistently making better choices since Monday so feel like I'm in a better place as this new weekend starts. Exercise wise, the weather didn't cooperate for running yesterday but am planning to get a run in on my lunch hour today and looking forward to a chicken Caesar salad for dinner. Other positives, doing great with IF 16/8 & Alcohol Free for the most part, allowing adult beverages only 1 night per week.
08/29 = 176.5 (down .7 from yesterday) Finally got another run in yesterday, felt great with lower temps and humidity. Fall is my favorite running weather, although this summer's heat has not been too bad. It's raining and thunderstorming here all day today, so planning on a relaxing day indoors reading and maybe some yoga.
08/30 = 176 (down .5 from yesterday) So close to my goal round weight, now just need to stay on the downward trend! I weighed in a little later this morning, so I am okay if this bumps up a little bit tomorrow, still plenty of time to make my round goal and have it stick. On plan for today is a nice outdoor run and husband is home for dinner (due to work he is only home for a family dinner 2-3 times a week) so I'll be cooking tonight. The recipe I'm planning will fit in my calorie allotment but I just need to be stricter with my calories for lunch to make it work. I normally pre-log my food into MFP in the morning, so that there are no surprises & usually leave a little wiggle room to adjust my choices as needed. Have a great day everyone!
