Michelle welcome and great start back. I lost 40 pounds on here and gained some back but I didn't go MIA here but still gained. It was mostly due to not adjusting well to an increased busy work schedule. You may add me but this once great MFP friend is not that great at supporting my many friends here. I am happy that I am logging daily though. Dahlia, hope today is better and you reach that goal.
Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Not sure, my chart says I am under net calories but MFP isn't showing my calories burned for yesterday despite aquafit and increased steps!? but I did get hungry and eat more dinner later in the evening and had fruit.
Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? yes and no I got lots of exercise but also got hungrier
What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? more activity and steps
What would I have done differently? not eaten as much for dinner
What is today's personal goals? I already went for my walk run before work and made myself a healthy breakfast so I guess watching calories the rest of the day
Did you try something new recently (food, exercise, etc...)?
Mood today? :huh: yesterday was a mixed bag with successes but higher calories, even though my weekly deficit should be enough to lose I am gaining. I am happy at upping my exercise.

What would I have done differently? Practiced yoga and not munch while I cooked dinner.
