    Even though I went over on my calories a couple of days, I was still able to lose some. I am keeping in mind that this is my first week so most of the weight I loss is from water but I'll take it anyway!

    @Isabelle @Gold6767 @leni1us Great week you guys!
    @beshamama Not a gain!
    @girlfacedolly If you just started a new exercise regimen or anything, it will cause water retention. Drink up and I bet it will be gone! I'm not even weighing this week because it is IV steroid week for me. Last time I thought that I was dying because it was a +19lbs gain in one day...I just have to pop furosemide like candy while I'm getting the infusions now.

    Daily post: Friday
    Track: yes
    Under calories: no
    Exercise: 45 minute walk this morning.

    The overage came from large fast food French fries I shared with my husband (I ate about 1/2 and recorded it). I took the advice of @Gold6767 and @Isabelle and prepped my food in the morning (my breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks). I was going to be 10 calories from hitting my goal for the day....then the fries happened. I did not factor those in and I know I should not have eaten them but I did.

    Tomorrow is another day.

    Hi everyone. My name is Lori. I have been using MFP off and on for a few years. Last December I decided I needed to make some lifestyle changes. I was over 300lbs and feeling terrible. I have high blood pressure & pre-diebetes. I knew I needed to make some changes. So I started doing intermittent fasting and using MFP to track my eating. I have lost 70 lbs so far and my AC1 has gone from 6.1 to 5.2. And I feel great. I started keto in August because I hit a plateau. And it has been working. I have been helping Melinda as co-captain when I can. If you'd like you can send me a friend request and my diary is open.

    Welcome everyone & good luck!

    My goal for December is to be more consistent. I have been losing & gaining the same 5 lbs for the last 2 months. I need to weigh & track my food, thats when I'm the most successful. I want to be 225 by the end of Dec.

    I'll have to weigh myself tomorrow because I forgot to do it before I had breakfast this morning. :D

    Saturday
    Track: Yes
    Exercise: Yes. Walked 30
    Calories: Over

    I need to focus on not eating things that were not planned. I prepped all my meals for the day but I get very loose in the evening after dinner.

    @leni1us I have the exact same problem. It helped me whenever I started pre-logging dinner for a worst case scenario and then tweaked it afterwards

    Really not having a good day. I made some bad food choices the past few days with today being the worst and overate my calories by a long shot, knowing what I was doing at the time I just didn't stop. I've been working out, but I feel sluggish and my workouts are not the best. I know I am gaining and I'm frustrated with myself for doing the same thing.
