The Monday Report

I figured Success Stories was an appropriate place for this. Why? Because without smaller, incremental success you'll never reach your bigger picture success.

Good years are built on good months, and good months are built on good weeks. So, how did you do last week?

Me? My averages for last week were:

total cals per day: 2482
exercise cals per day: 551
net cals per day: 1932
avg daily deficit: 368
fats: 96g
carbs: 218g
protein: 184g

I had 1 rest day, lifted 2x, and had 5 cardio sessions. That's a little more cardio-centric than I'd like it to be, but otherwise that's pretty good for me. I lost 3lbs, though most of that was normal fluctuations in water weight.

You are so right. It is those small goals that keep us going. For me my victory for last week is that I got my exercise in every day and maintained my weight. Those are my current goals for each week. I figure if I can do that everything else will eventually follow.

Let's see...

total cals per day: 2069
exercise cals per day: 511
net cals per day: 1558
avg daily deficit: 511
fats: 88g
carbs: 247
protein: 100

Neither lost nor gained. I float at 152. I'd like to drop 3-4lbs for next year's race season.

How are you figuring out your average calories per day? I see the bar graph that gives the calories per day on an individual day basis, but I have not figured out how to get the average per day figure for a week, month, etc. from the MFP data. Help?

I dump everything into excel so I can see/manipulate the data better.

Edit: and my wins for the week are pull-ups 2x3x bodyweight. Slow and steady.

Ahh - I see. Thank you to both of you for filling this newby in on what to do!
(Wouldn't it be great if MFP did this automatically?)

or add 7 days of calories together and divide by 7.

Admitting and owning your mistakes can be a success... especially if you don't repeat those mistakes.

Chimps are going ape, giraffes remain above it all
Elephants remember, though just what I can't recall
Crocodiles are snapping up fresh offers from the banks
Showed interes in my nest egg but I quickly said, "No thanks!"
We haven't paid the hornbills and the vultures have a hunch
Not everyone invited... will be coming back from lunch

This is the morning report
Gives you the long and the short
Every grunt, roar and snort
Not a tale I distort
On the morning report

I shall not repeat those mistakes
I shall not repeat those mistakes

looking forward to a successful week!!

Daily average: 2515


I should probably calculate my deficit.

I feel good about last week. I hit my exercise goal (minutes and calories burned) by Friday evening, which is progress for me because often I ONLY get 'real' exercise on Saturday & Sunday.

I went to an Indian buffet and ate "too much" but still stayed within my calories and didn't get dessert afterward.

I "splurged" on pizza as well, but only after 3 solid hours of brisk walking. I'm very pleased.
