Day 4

08/31 Today was my rest day so I made sure I was under my calorie goal since I wasn't exercising! It was a good day overall but I am ready to get back to my workout tomorrow ! How was y'all's day?

    Yesterday wasn't too bad. Went over my calories a bit and didn't get any exercise in, but we were super busy. I didn't lose any weight last week, but I didn't put enough effort in. Today it gets serious! I have groceries in the house and I am starting September off with a run (well run/walk) with a friend. She's just getting back into running and I've taken a few weeks off so this morning will be great for us both to get back to it!

    Yesterday was good even though I drank coke. Completed my 10,000 steps challenge and the deficit for 3500 calorie burn challenge. Was under my food calorie goal and had sufficient rest. Good day generally. Starting the spinning for September hopefully hubby will take me to gym later in the day. Meanwhile doing some cleaning in the house then start my walk for the 10,000 steps challenge. Have a lovely fulfilling week ahead to all group members.

    Great Job staying under your calorie goal. How do you know when you need a rest day?

    I choose 1 day a week to rest! My legs start to get sore from running each day so I just give myself a little break :)

    Went 4 wheeling 8/31 and was a great day for that because it had rained the day before so was not very dusty and had some nice mud to maneuver around. The bad part of the trip was that I picked up a bag of Doritos for the trip and then we stopped and ate at KFC. Bad food planning on my part. I can't believe i was under the calorie allowance but only because of the exercise but not sure if I logged that correctly. Put it in as riding a mowing lawn mower, which takes much less effort than 4 wheeling but I think mfp is too generous for the exercise calories for riding a lawnmower so maybe i am close. Just feeling poisoned today from my bad food choices. New goal... no junk food for Sept!

    Was going to go swimming yesterday, but the water was too cold for these old bones. :grumble: Started raining soon after, so I wasn't too depressed about it. I barely made it under my calorie goal, but I did it! :smile: I'm hoping day 5 is a better day.
