    I fixed the boyfriend breakfast, extra super cheesy eggs, thick cut bacon, buttered toast, and fruit. Omg it smelled so good lol. I stuck with what I planned the night before: steel cut oats, cottage cheese, and some fruit, only had one bite of the bacon! I think I felt just as satiated as him, though!

    I think that is awesome! Great job!! I did recently learn ... in case you want to work it in to your calories ... that bacon is far less calories than I thought. Eggs for protein and a piece or two of bacon isn't a terrible breakfast. (I add the "super-cheesy" too, but that doesn't help me make my point, lol.)

    Lol, yeah, bacon isnt "bad" as folks think. Normally I have no issue with that for a breakfast(though I try to do a baby bell for the cheese instead of the super cheesy lol), but I'm planning spaghetti for dinner sooooo, gotta stick to the plan!

    I allowed myself an "off" day from my usual eating pattern and much to my surprise I didn't go over on calories. I enjoyed a hot buttered biscuit without guilt!

    Took a rest day! I have a really hard time doing that.

    Well, I have 2 hours of exercise logged, but most of that was dancing after midnight (wee hours) and casual walking.

    Mostly I stayed in bed and napped all day. :)

    I fit into a pant suit for church that I hadn't been able to fit in around the holidays.

    2.8 pounds lost this week... finally, after watching that dratted scale not move for 3 weeks! I give credit to all the snow shoveling I did this weekend and for being patient, knowing it had to move finally. Plus I live in the NE and did a heck of a lot of snow shoveling this weekend lol. And I ate every one of my daily calories plus those that I earned shoveling.

    I ran. It's 11 degrees outside and I'm sure I looked like an idiot, but I ran.

    This morning on our usual stop at Sheetz (gas station/restaurant) before dropping my daughter at school, I got a single pack of mozzarella pearls (70 cal) and a yogurt (all they have is fat free, 90 cal) while she eyed all the donuts and settled on a muffin that was probably 400 calories lol. I'm getting really great at knowing what my best options are in each store we go to.

    ... showed up for the gym without my music thingy - and ran my four miles anyway. Had to work *hard* to stay focused, so maybe even a few extra calories in brain power.

    I did ok today but my victory yesterday was walking to the gym, on a Sunday, in the snow.

    I started losing weight in September, and got into a regular fitness routine about a month ago. I've been at a healthy weight for a few months, but now that I'm fine tuning and really changing my body, I finally inspired my boyfriend to join MFP yesterday. I'm really proud of him for taking the first step, and of myself for being his inspiration!

    Keeping on track on the Whole30. The neighbor brought over a dozen donuts to apologize for waking us super early, looking for his lost dog. I have ignored them and snacked on an orange instead.
