    day 8 feeling a little strange, maybe because of the time change or something....
    but sunshine longer into the day is a good thing and ate pretty good while workin on the house and messing around...
    hope everyone is enjoying the Sunday:smile:

    Yeah..maybe because you made us set our clocks back 90 minutes...that's the reason it's weird!:laugh:

    Not such a good day for me. I am over a bit on calories (went out to dinner). I have to burn some calories tonight on the nordic track so I don't go over. Oh well. Hope everyone is having a good day.

    Okay, that was semi-pathetic. Had to do 20 minutes of workout at the end of the day to stay within my calorie limit, BUT I made it.

    Hey everyone. How's day 9 treating you? So far so good here. I'm even thinking of packing my big fanny to the park and walking the track. I walked DAILY for around 8 months and never felt better. Then cold weather came along and that was the end of that. Now that the weather is breaking...I need to get back into my routine. I doubt I can make the 4 miles I used to, though!:laugh:

    I did a little self-sabotage for two days. I swear I never had a problem staying within calories until the last couple of weeks.

    But I am going strong today and have a killer workout planned for the evening!

    Dave has me motivated about my upcoming Spring break. I need to accept the challenge and forget about your standard, gut-bomb Mexican food. Grrr. Maybe even hit the fitness facilities at the hotel HARD.

    So far so good today. I thought I only had 600 cals left for the day, but then realized I had 2 double entries. LIKE FINDING MONEY IN MY COAT POCKET!!! This whole MFP thing has me wanting to work out more so I can eat more. Is that a good thing?

    good atitude DW....and I love mexican food I just skip the tortiilas and the chips....carne asada with the roasted peppers and onions is a great meal...just ask them to go easy on the oil,,,most will drizzle extra oil...and working out at the hotel gyms can be fun,.,,,something different anyway and might get some ideas for a new exercise
    working ou more for extra cals is a real ggod thing....say the machine or HRM says you burned 300 cals....well actually after the workout you are still burning more cals thatn usual so you actually get that benefit....
    keep on keepin on

    Going good here Becky and Dave. But it's COLD outside. About 10 degrees and windy. Can't wait to go to Arizona on Saturday. So far so good for March though. Been staying under the calorie limit. Feeling GOOD. Hope you guys are too.

    Day 11 was hard. Felt like I was going to blow through my calories but I held it together ... barely. In hindsight, I think the day was tough because the day before I had a big workout and left most of my "earned" calories on the table. Watching two episodes of No Reservations didn't help either.

    I hope today will be better. I need to get some work done too. Have a great day 12 - We're almost halfway there.

    I just had a 6 inch Subway ham and turkey. OMG, it was so tasty and filling. I haven't eaten there in about 2 years. That's a lot of food for under 400 calories! And you get your veggies too.
