Calories: :embarassed: :frown: Over by 850
Water: YEs,
Exercise: Yes,

Proud............................hmmm, let me think, maybe it should be that I am 850 over my cals instead of 1850, NO that would not be good. ....... So how about the fact that I exercised today.........:indifferent: and I am still over by 850 cals

Momma2four - I exercised on Thursday and was over by a 1000 :embarassed: We are doing FAR better than would would if we weren't on here posting our food and making smart choices!

OK, now that I am through eating for the day! But, I have no clue as to how many calories I ate for Dinner. Do I just skip posting that meal? I had 1 &1/2 Shrimp and Steak shish kabobs and that is not in the database for food. Does anyone know how many calories that is?

I put in estimates - like if there were about six med shrimp on the Kabobs I'd first look for grilled shrimp - then I would look for the 8oz. (or what every you think it was) of steak (grilled) and so on. Usually you can find something! Maybe you'll find a whole steak kabob and you just use .5 for your portion and same with a shrimp kabob

Good luck!

Thanks Momma2four and Mstahl! I agree with the calories. I need to work on getting all of my calories in. I read a thread somewhere in here that made a lot of sense. Thanks for the encouragement.

I will add to my summary from now on. Thanks for the heads up

Lisa - did you enter any exercise time in for today? Or did you change any of your goals (like going from 2lbs/week to 1lb a week)?

The only thing I changed was excercising from 6 x's a wk to 5. And I haven't logged any excercise for today.

mstahl, just wanted to say Thanks for all your help and advice.:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

LittleSpy

Lisa, I didn't quite understand your question. Do you mean you used to have 1260 calories and now it's only giving you 1200? If that's the case, it's because you've lost weight and when you went in to change your exercise goals, it reassessed your calories based on your new weight.
I started being allowed 1340 calories before exercise. Now I can only eat 1200 without exercise because I weigh less so that means I burn less just existing (my BMR is lower).

01.16.10
Calories: 1258
Exercise: Couch25K week 5 day 2, baby! :happy:

Proud: Yeah, still insanely excited I completed c25k w5d2.

I know I've mentioned many times I have several really super awesome skirts I bought when I worked at a no-kill shelter thrift store 3 years ago. They're really unique with lots of beading and other detail. They were way too small for me when I bought them (and this was BEFORE I gained the 40 pounds with my boyfriend because we'd only been dating about 8 months :embarassed: ). I remember talking to the lady who donated them because she had lost so much weight & that was the reason she was donating them. Some of them still had tags. They wouldn't even come close to fitting but I thought *some day* I'd lose weight & be able to wear them. Or maybe I thought they'd motivate me to lose weight, so I bought almost all of them. Last year, I came VERY close to donating them back to that thrift store because I thought there was absolutely no way I'd ever be able to wear them.
Well, ladies, I had a "Holy S***" experience this morning. I was going to try on my favorite of those skirts, as I've been doing occasionally since September, just to see how much farther I had to go. It's a size 14. I put it on, I zipped it up, I clasped it. And then I screamed "HOLY SH**!!!" It FITS!!! So, I pulled out the next skirt, zip, clasp "HOLY SH**!" and then the next, and the next. ALL OF THEM except 1 fit. Do you know what this means? It means I have to go shoe shopping! :laugh:
I'll probably lose another 10-15 pounds before I wear them out, but woah, I'm still in shock they fit. I honestly never thought I would be able to wear them.
