Day 4: not a great day today. I went to the gym for 90 minutes but still didn't get my steps in I'm under my calories for the day but haven't lost any weight yet. Let's hope tomorrow is better0

Ok down another pound! Keep up the good work everyone! Just wanted to share that if you google 37 calorie brownie there is a great recipe. I eat one or two warmed up in microwave, put 40 cal (2TBS) light cool whip and 1/2 c frozen thawed strawberries on top! For about 150 calories you get a low fat high protein low carb treat. It's like a piece of heaven!
Sounds delicious. I will be trying these. Thanks!!0 -

Keep your chin up. Obstacles can be overcome!! You've got this!!!0 -
Hi there! Ok my goal is to measure and weigh myself and make a huge effort to track and move and make this a daily habit! I am looking for accountability people... Need a weekly weigh-in checkup if you will!0

Surprisingly awesome weigh in this morning... Down 3 pounds this week! I have worked hard on being brutally honest logging and it seems to be paying off...as well as being an eye opener. Meals are great... Snacks need a lot of work. Definitely still need to focus on my goal of working out 3 days a week. I seem to go up and down in the same 5 pounds, so glad I'm down now, but not going to celebrate too hard yet.

Managed to make it to the gym 5 days this week. Down to 179.8. Hoping to make it to 170 by St patty's day still! Hit 10,000 steps yesterday! And under calorie goal!0

Yesterday I felt better enough to eat comfort food, so emotional progress is being made ha! I was over about 400 I think, but wasn't worried about that. Ate fatty fried food which I would rather have not of course, but at dinner we went to our favorite restaurant which is a trigger for my favorite drink and of course their bread, and I skipped both so I felt empowered! I had skipped my run and workout yesterday, but got it done today! Have a great Saturday everyone!0

Day 5: I struggled with my eating today. Stopping myself from eating what I wanted and ended up being under my calories. I made my goal for steps but didn't make it to the gym. I'm still craving foods I shouldn't have.0

Welcome!
Thank you!

Was under my calorie count today!0 -
Managed to stay in my calorie range all this week. Rode my horses 3x and gym only once. Going to ride again tomorrow. Haven't met my goal of exercise 5x a week but I am close to it. I will try harder this week.0

Late to the party - but I'm in and living in Savannah, GA - St. Pat's week will be my "cheat week" for a few months

I'm a Georgia girl too...other side of the state. Savannah's celebration is legendary! Have a great time, and make healthy choices when you can. Add a little extra movement to offset some of the fun. Enjoy!0 -
Day 3
I'm a morning person, so checking in now. Today is a rest day from my traditional exercise, but filled with house cleaning, meal planning, grocery shopping and pre-prepping what I can for the week ahead. I'm paying particular attention to snacks to make every nutrient count.

Have a healthy week!0 -

Small steps count...go you! Riding sounds like a wonderful way to get in a workout.0 -

I'm in! Was doing great this fall running and getting into a workout routine but the holidays and Ohio winter hit (and had sick kids for months). Finally getting back into the swing and enjoying the warming temperature! Joined a ReFit class at the Y and started my runs again today.

Didn't do too well this weekend. Ate more calories than I wanted to. But I did go for a nice mile and a half walk at the park with my fiancé this afternoon. Hoping for a good week this week. Ready to go back to the gym!0

Day 6: under calories today. Found the cravings easier to ignore. I made my step goal but didn't go to the gym. I'll try to go to the gym tomorrow.0
