Tracked: Yes
Calories: No, over by 100. But, I feel like my exercised should have cancelled it out... just going by the books here though.
Exercise: Yes, Back workout today (1 hr+ of different exercises targeting the back) plus 30 min on the stair master.
Hey, Mikayla. I am confused. Do you not factor in exercise calories when deciding if you are "under" or not, (because you absolutely should be), or you do factor in exercise calories, but the number you came up with wasn't as high as you thought it should be and thereby you were not "under"?0 -
HI Gang I'm back from my well deserved vacation and I really did miss checking in here and seeing how everyone was doing.
I did weigh last week on the hotel gym scale but didn't have internet access and after todays weigh I'm kind of glad I did not post that weight as it was really up and would have shown a 8 pound loss for this week.
So my Monday weigh in
This week 240
Last recorded 242
We walked a ton. Victoria is so walkable and we have fallen in love with it. Had so much great food and a very relaxing time.
Now to go back and read how everyone is doing.
Just curious, Mary Kay. Victoria, where? Great job on losing your holiday gain so quickly, by the way!!0 -

Under calories: Yes
Exercise: Yes- yard work and pressure washing for about 2 hours.
I was really low on calories around 3pm, so had some almond butter and bacon

Track No
Over calorie target for sure.Ate way too much watching the Steelers win
Exercise, 14,000 steps and our game was canceled due to cold weather.
Need desperately to shift back into gear. Hoops and volleyball season.
Better than eating too much watching the Steelers lose!!! Yes, it is shift time. For you, into hoop and volleyball season. For me, into back from vacation season. And for both of us, into getting back on track!!!1 -

Felt good yesterday tried to push myself today feeling a little sore & my neck is hurting again 🤔
I've noticed that you have been pushing yourself a little more lately. Sorry that your body wasn't as ready as you had hoped. You've been doing well on the scales in spite of your injury, so as frustrating as it is, don't despair!! Slow and steady wins the race!!1 -

Thank you, Stephanie. You're a sweetheart!!1 -
I am really hoping that this week is my new kickstart. I have been in a no loss but no gain rut for a month and a half. I am sure after last weeks mini-vacation I will be up some this week but I hope to stay active and eat healthy to start going in the right direction again. If not, I guess I will have to sit back and reevaluate myself.
I am assuming your most recent mini vacay is the last for a while. And the next thing coming up is the holiday season. Ten weeks until Christmas. Go really hard until then and see what happens. What have you got to lose? (Yes, I know Thanksgiving is in there, but it is only one day!!)0 -

Okay, folks.... I think I am all caught up!!! For me, this week, I am just going to focus on catching up with two weeks of life things. I am still going to eat well, or well enough, but not worry too much about numbers. Then, I plan to "bring it" as we finish out October!!1

Yea ... except in 5 weeks im on a long vacation. 11 straight days starting on Thanksgiving ...
So here’s to hoping I kick these next 5 weeks in the butt and roll momentum into vacay0 -
@bizgirl26 I 😍 varadero and November is the perfect time to go...it cools down and is so nice. My family went to Cuba in August and apparently it was unbreathably hot0
