Ouch! Don’t worry about the step results. I can do it if you would like.

Steps: 4,903
Log food: ✔️✔️✔️✔️
Exercise:✔️✔️
I went for a real walk outdoors. I walked to the pharmacy. I did slouch over a cart while inside but then I walked to the market nearby and got something for lunch. I probably walked 20 to 25 minutes total not counting the time inside using the cart. My back is pretty darn sore today so it’s off to the pool I go. Bottom line is I can deal with back pain it’s the nerve pain that gets me so hopefully I continue to get relief from that for awhile.
Have an amazing day!5 -

I am curious about how everybody approaches food and weight loss. Do you eat everything in moderation or are you very strict? Are there any foods you absolutely can not be around?2

Wednesday Recap
- Eating only at Level 3: not really
- Water (Goal 64 oz) : unknown
- Increased intensity while walking: yes
- THOUGHTS: Husband still in hospital so back and forth there. Got exercise in! Had a sandwich for lunch and left overs from Monday's dinner for dinner. Drank water but probably only about 32 ounces. Hopefully he comes home today.

I try to do everything in moderation while staying within my calorie budget which is different for each day. I like to munch on salty crunchy things but my body is not carb friendly. I also enjoy red "empty calorie" wine. So my plan looks something like this:- Everything in moderation - daily calorie range of 1000 to 1400
- Limit wine consumption
- Nuts for salty/crunchy satisfaction
- AND...in case of emergency and calories allow - I will eat pork skins (I wish there was a low sodium version) fat yes, but low/no carbs.

I was VERY strict during my weight loss. I've eased up since I hit Maintenance but I still stay away from zero nutrition foods like pop and chips/candy. I'll eat stuff like pizza (veggie pizza, sometimes vegan) and chicken shawarmas as long as there's some nutritional value.2 -

Do you have Shelby’s in Windsor? I love chicken shawarmas.

I probably am not as strict as I should be. I tend to eat more treats on the weekends. I am slowly phasing this out. I believe in everything in moderation. There are at the same time certain foods I avoid having in the apartment as I will eat too much. One of them is cheese wheez. I don’t keep bags of chips or chocolate around either. If I want then I buy a single serving. Very processed so I shouldn’t be eating it anyway. My husbands likes his sweets on the weekends so he buys things I don’t like.2 -
