    7/8
    Yesterday was a decent day for protein but a bit high on carbs. Still met calorie goals for the day and had plenty of movement.

    7/9
    Today, due to my schedule, I went with one carby meal late this afternoon (albeit low cal) and some snacks earlier in the day. I’m beat from working overnight then all day today so am about to crash before starting it all over tonight. No plans to eat anything else though. I got in a walk earlier but didn’t get my strength in so who knows- yoga later? We’ll see…

    I was a little low on calories which made everything else a little low but still with my ranges. got my exercise in a lot easier for me since I'm retired.

    I need to catch up 😀

    Food and exercise have both been fine. Yesterday we went on a 12 mile hike and ended up in town. It was really nice to see so many people out and about!

    I hit a new milestone on Friday but weight has been bouncing around this weekend so I’m waiting to see if it was a fluke.

    7/10-7/11
    It was a work weekend so I got in plenty of exercise Saturday but took it easy Sunday and caught up on lack of sleep. I did well on food Saturday but then had m&m’s at 11pm during a teleconference for a little pick me up so that didn’t help my calorie deficit. Tiredness drove my eating decisions yesterday so they were carby with too many calories. Back to the grind today!

    Meh 😀

    @Megan_smartiepants1970 i know it’s really hot where you are. Do you think the headaches could be electrolyte related?

    Good day early then went downhill in the evening which is when I’m weakest and the least active. Darned mindless eating!

    @Megan_smartiepants1970: sounds like you are getting enough sodium, but maybe check on your magnesium and potassium levels...?

    Got all my exercise in for the day, than just general housework, not much excitement but that's OK it is too hot to work outside so it's a good time to get got up.
