Day 27 DONE!
Had unexpected company this afternoon and didn't get a chance to get my workout in, but I'll fit it in tomorrow and call today a rest day.
Food/water were good.
Have a good weekend!0 -
Hey guys,
I was away for a fews days for work and ended up falling ill so I haven't been totally logging everything I eat or eating very well, let alone being able to exercise. Can't breathe through my nose, so this cold has really put a spanner in this challenge. I may have to personally extend the 80 days and lead it to Christmas at the rate I'm going...[sigh]...can't believe I've caught a cold when I only had it a month ago...bah, I hate this cold rainy weather :sad:0 -
Hang in here Balfonso...
Day 28 done... Big burn today... ate good too...0 -
Managed DAY 29. Didn't have much of an appetite today as still ill but managed to squeeze in a walk from grocery shopping so at least it's better than nothing.
Having lots of liquids and made a big pot of pork spicy miso veggie stew today so that should hopefully last me a few days so I can rest in the evenings.
Trying my best to hang in there guys

Day 28 DONE! Didn't post last night, oops.
No exercise this weekend (too hard to fit in with the hubby at home. Gotta work on that!)
Currently working my way through day 29. I have homemade bean soup simmering on the stove, which is fun. Gotta get in a little more water today. Will post back tonight. 0 -

Bye bye weekend, hello Monday. Let's start this week off with a bang!!0 -
Was away for a few days so not able to track well. Did make smarter choices and work out but was not perfect. But back to work and back on track now. Even managed to work out before work today! On a personal nite I love how honest everyone is, it's nice to know I am not the only one who slips now and then. Thanks guys0

This was my first multi-day challenge on MFP and I only just now realize, 33 days in, that I am doing it the wrong way. I've been posting just to my page when I finish the day instead of here. Duh Paula.
For 32 days I have achieved all of the pieces of the challenge. I will now post here till the end of it. I am loving reading all of your posts. Sorry for being such an MFP challenge novice. 0 -
Another day of maintaining... I like the challenge of maintaining...
34!0 -
I think it is day 33. Tomorrow is weigh in day. If every day was like today I would be in great shape to walk in to visit my doc at my lowest weight ever since I started seeing him 20 years ago!!! I can't wait to see his shock. He's such a fit guy and loves to exercise. I'm going to blow him away! 0

Day 33 DONE!
I was over my calories and didn't exercise... because we were celebrating. My hubby PASSED THE BAR EXAM!!! :bigsmile: I'm married to a lawyer! I'm not sure how that happened!! :laugh:
We ate out at Claim Jumper. Honestly, I should have just had a baked sweet potato and grilled veges... instead I had the squash ravioli. It sounded so good. It wasn't bad -- but the potato and veges would have tasted just as good, and been a healtier option. Ah well, live and learn! I did NOT have alcohol OR desert, which I'm pretty proud of. I just ate my meal and enjoyed the company of good friends. It was nice.
Tomorrow, it's right back on track!0 -

What a great feeling! Glad to have you posting for all!0 -
DAY 34 - awesome. Managed to get in a lot of "unnecessary" walking in between work. Slowly getting better health-wise.
Highlight of the day: Fitting into my old smaller jeans even though the scales have gone up a little. :bigsmile:0 -
Day 34! I lost just a little over a pound this week. But the scale is still heading in the right direction. It would be awesome if it can continue that way to the end of the challenge. Had lunch at my favorite Italian Restaurant and did not go over my calorie budget. I feel like such a success tonight.
Have an awesome night!0 -
DAY 35 - And what a lovely surprise it was!
I finally lost a bit of weight after not checking the scales for 3 weeks and hitting a plateau over a month, FINALLY the scales became my friend again [for a day].
But today was a good day. Didn't have a strenuous hike as planned as wasn't feeling well, but did burn some calories walking a friend's dog down the pebbled beach of Brighton followed by good ol' fish & chips. Yum!
So didn't go over my calories and still had lots left over. Yipee!
Keep on working hard everyone!

Day 35 all done. We had a birthday party for one of my two youngest granddaughters. Grace turned 3! I logged a piece of birthday cake before the party, but when everyone was served, there was only one piece of cake left. I saved it for my hubby, and deleted the cake from my journal. It's all good.
Have a sweet night everyone!0 -
DAY 36 - overate just a little from having a big Sunday roast dinner at the pub and a pint of Guiness.

Day 37! I'm happy to say that it was a great Monday. After 80 days, I don't know if I will be able to stop. And won't that be wonderful 0

Day 38 and I feel great! I can't believe the difference. I have more energy, I haven't had a dumping syndrome, peculiar to gastric bypass patients, in I don't know how long. I'm loving it so much!!!!0
