Went over my calorie limit tonight by 300+ with thin-crust pizza and wine. Kinda frustrated that it was over, since all I ate was breakfast AND I got all my steps in. That’s alright, though. My weight is showing a downward trend, and my pants get super loose while walking today. I’ll take those victories. Good night everybody!2

@Beautyofdreams I haven't seen those ads yet but i will keep my eyes open. that sounds interesting. thank you for suggesting it.
@red1185 thin crust pizza shouldn't have calories. grats on getting your steps in. your trend is in the right direction.
@tahm42 at least you are getting back to walking right away. great start.1 -

Sorry for not commenting on posts. I have read them all. My mom and granddaughter are at my house for a few days. My mom takes turns staying at my daughters, sons and my house. I have been a little down as I haven’t been able to go to the mall or any place that involves a lot of walking or standing with them but we all have to accept our limitations. I am going to sneak to the pool for a quick swim later this morning. Yesterday I did laps, a cardio workout and lots of stretching.
Happy Hump Day!

Have you ever tried logging your day the night beforehand. Then stick to what you logged. I used to do that but it has got away from me lately. This time of year is definitely harder for snacking with all the goodies around. Don’t over do it with your back as you don’t want to be in pain during the holidays.

I kept putting off going to the pool and then I was just plain too lazy to go. Once I finish my coffee, I am off. I am going to do some laps, leg workout and then lots of stretching. I need 6 more days of exercise to get the December challenge badge. I am cutting it close but I think I can do it.
