    Thanks for the suggestions, @Lilymay2.
    I have actually 'played' with every imaginable eating combo and time. Eating early, especially carbs just made me hungry all day long. I like an evening snack, but with a breakfast I just kept eating and eating and went over my calorie limit. So I ended up switching my breakfast to 'lunch' around 11 AM, having oatmeal and 1 or 2 hardboiled eggs, or scrambled eggs with veggies. (That helped to eliminate the calories from toast too.) Then a snack with protein around 3, and a full supper between 6 and 7, and then I could still have calories for an evening snack. Re fruit, many fruits actually bother my stomach (IBS) - I find cooked fruit much easier for me to digest.
    Being 66, and only 5', MFP 'gave' me 1200 calories a day. But it seems like I basically just maintained at that level. I do not lose unless I am below 1150, so it's a real puzzle as to how to fit in those calories for best effect.

    I do appreciate your feedback though.

    Lilymay2, congrats on hitting 100 miles, even if it's not to your goal yet. I can only dream of doing that, at this point.
    Congrats to PinkyPan1 and Deeder522 too, for your accomplishments.
    You are all a great inspiration to someone very new to this.

    Made my goal!

    Goal for March 11-31: 20 miles

    As of Mar 26 1 had walked 15.5 miles

    Since then I have done 5 more miles - so total as of today - 20.5 miles. Yippee.

    I used the weighted balls on 2 of the 1 miles this week. I had planned to just hold them, and work up to the exercise movements, but I just ended up doing them anyway. As a newbie exerciser, I am really feeling it!

    Good for you making your goal and working out with the hand weights. You are doing great. I hope to see you at next month's challenge. :)
