Saturday Oct 2
Exercise: Yes - Sh'Bam workout (45 minutes)
Calories under: No
Tracked everything: Yes
Pass 1/3 Whilst I was over the calorie count, there were still wins with saying no to some things and not having seconds. It is also good to be tracking again as (despite going over today) it really does make me think twice about what I eat, especially lazy snacks I don't need, but which go a long way in explaining my gained kilos.12 -
Huzzah, a successful day!
Tracking: yep
Calories: yep
Exercise: jog/walked 5kms and only got rained on a tiny bit hahah
Good grief it's hard getting up and leaving the house to do exercise... If anyone has helpful tips I'm all ears 😅7 -
Just get it out of the way ASAP, like ripping off a bandage. Get out on that walk/run before your brain is alert enough to figure out what you're doing!gelatinouscube wrote: »Good grief it's hard getting up and leaving the house to do exercise... If anyone has helpful tips I'm all ears 😅

You're probably right! I'm terrible in the mornings (I usually run in the evening), tricking my goblin brain out of the house before I wake up sounds like a good idea 🤣Just get it out of the way ASAP, like ripping off a bandage. Get out on that walk/run before your brain is alert enough to figure out what you're doing!

The peanut butter debacle last night appears to have been triggered by hunger, possibly still remaining from a couple weeks back when I learned I had unwittingly spent a couple weeks in a 2.5 pound per week caloric deficit. I thought I had that reined in and comfortably at a 1.5 to 2 pound/week deficit, but apparently I'm not over this yet. I'm feeding the urges today with small, calorically dense low-no-carb items every 30-60 minutes until this hunger beast leaves today. Will report later how the day ended.7

You don't have to leave the house - try doing Utube workouts.8 -
Exercise – yes – bike ride in the rain plus cardio.
Tracked – yes
Calories – yes.
I went out for a very short bike ride in the morning just down to the shops and got quite wet. Later, when the rain had eased a bit I went out again but I cut it short and got wet again ugh!

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? yes
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? yes
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? yes (I am a prelogger) and am experimenting with actually closing my diary and letting it post to my newsfeed to make sure that I don't do a mindless nighttime snack attack... rare but looking for new tools and MFP has em!7 -

It's all about finding something you enjoy. And sometimes it's not so much that you enjoy it while you're "doing it" as it is about how you feel after the fact. It always helps me to have a goal to work towards.7 -
I have a week long bike trip coming up. Instead of using my fancy road bike I'm gong to bring my husband's hybrid bike. I'm having SO MUCH FUN riding around on that thing to prepare. Because I live in the country, there are a lot of gravel roads and I can take his hybrid on all of them. I feel like a kid again!9

@gelatinouscube
Hey there!
I do my exercise late afternoon/evening as that was when I used to have the most appetite. I call it my ME Time. I use phone calls, music, nature, photography, and lots of variety in routes.
The thing to remember: it only gets easier & more enjoyable as you get lighter & more muscular…and as you solidify your habit.
For me: it’s not IF I’ll exercise, but WHEN. Your body begins to take you out in it’s own eventually❣️8 -
Tracked logged and exercised. I did my first Epic workout today I have to admit I did modify it to meet my needs but with that said I did fine.
We also did marinated tofu with fresh peppers and onions a much better cooking and eating experience this time will do again but my protein is still short but getting better.6 -

You don’t need to leave the house unless you want to I have my own spin bike with a 40lb wheel, medicine slam balls resistance bands and stairs lol !! I do leave almost every day to walk with a walking partner and usually again in the evening with hubby. Try You Tube you may find something you like.8 -
