    I'm holding onto water cause my favorite 🙄 time of the month is coming. Plus slightly sore muscles from just starting to exercise.

    Day 5 no coffee, and I got up and did my workout this morning.

    Bad news is I may be coming down with something. My right ear, nose, sinus and throat all hurt.

    I’m almost positive my clothes are fitting a tad looser! Which is good, as I’m waiting on buying new work pants.

    I keep going up and down the same 2lbs. I'm getting frustrated. Still exercising. Though I didn't get to the treadmill tonight. Came home from work, ate dinner, then went grocery shopping (usually do this Friday's, but I picked up an extra shift). So while I didn't exercise, I surpassed my step goal.

    I'll get up and do my workout tomorrow morning though. And I'll smash my step goal since I'll be working a 12 to 13 hour shift.

    I still feel like I'm trying to catch a cold. Whole right side of my face/ear hurts. I'm gonna try and workout through it cause I feel like something always happens that makes me stop exercising and I don't want to do that this time.

    I’ve had to incorporate foods I normally wouldn’t cause don’t want food waste. Not horrible (hummus, coffee creamers, etc) but kinda empty calories that keep me running longer.

    @Making_Impossible_Possible I had Covid in January and had to stop exercising completely for a week, sometimes it’s better to just maintain, and work on behavioural changes or other things to distract from eating/illness. Can’t workout all consumed calories anyways. Good luck!!

    Was expecting water weight earlier, or maybe it’s the lifting weights water? My snacking wasn’t the best this weekend, but not the worst. Just need to focus on one day at time ☺️

    Still adjusting to daylight savings time. But going to push myself to no snacking after 9pm. Until Saturday anyway.
    It’s hard finding low cal snack foods that aren’t veggies, pickles, konjac noodles, sugarless jellos, or the variations of those.

    Hope there's room for one more!

    After a holiday in the hot sunshine with walking shorts that were uncomfortably tight, I've come back to MFP in the hope of shrinking my waist down to a healthy size and ideally lose a few kg on the way. I usually start off full of enthusiasm that disappears after about a week, and after searching around on the discussions threads, I think I've found the perfect place to be.

    Ultimate goals:
    UGW - 54kg (SW - 60.5kg)
    UGWaistM - 78cm (Start Measurement - 83cm)

    Mini Goals March:
    1. Post here every day for the rest of the month.
    2. Lose 1kg in weight
    3. Lose 1cm from my waist (will measure at the end of the month)

    12 March - 60.5
    13 March - 60.2

    I’ve seen the scale try to swing to 149 this morning 😊

    @Aquarian make sure MFP doesn’t add your exercise calories double. I had to disconnect the step counting feature because it added my running steps into my base daily calorie, in addition to the calories burned that I added.
    I run much faster then the 100/200 calories it kept adding, but it got too confusing.

    @SofaKween Absolutely - welcome to the group! And I can imagine starting up again with C25K would be exhausting the first day, but this too will get easier as your endurance improves. <3 Wishing you the best as you begin working toward your goals!

    Have a great Thursday, everyone!
