    MINI CHALLENGE
    12/11/18
    Tracking = Yes
    Calories = Yes, Calorie Deficit= 657
    EX = BWE & steps 3220
    Day = Upping my game this week so going to be boring you all with the deets of my diet and exercise, all suggestions welcome! Super busy day and relatively office bound ☹ BWE consisted of Jumping Jacks x 40, Wall Push-Ups x 7, Reverse Crunches x 20, Mountain Climbers x 20, Push Ups x 1 (I’m still pathetic at push ups), Side Lunges x 20, Butt Bridges x 20 and 45s Plank. Tough going today, I was hurting after Zumba yesterday! Food-wise, did really well with macros today (Goal is 50% Carbs, 30% Fat and 20% Protein – which I know will need revising before long) 42% Carb, 21% Fat and 37% Protein.

    @ENRiyard I struggled to sleep last night too! Spent the whole night waking and turning back and fore :neutral:
    My macros are the way that MFP set them for me originally and I've never changed them. I aim for them and am always roughly in that area (if not higher on protein). I thinkit's working out fine for now but I am open to suggestions :smile:

    Happy Monday Everybody!!!
    My weight in was yesterday I had to come into town to get service. 😬

    Weight in day Sunday, I was 154, I’m 153.2 this week. I hit most days with 10k steps last week. We are trying to eat more Whole Foods in my house and significantly less processed soon hoping for better results this week. Fingers crossed!

    I know in your mind you were aiming for a higher loss, but eight tenths is still a great loss, and it all adds up!! And don't worry about being a day late; just glad you got service and posted!! Good job on getting your 10K steps most days!!

    MINI CHALLENGE
    DATE: Monday, November 12, 2018
    Logged food: Yes
    Under calories: Yes
    Exercise: Yes - 30 minute on the indoor bike (I was so much sweatier than I usually am on the elliptical) / 20 minutes misc strength training. Whole family started getting sick last night, I was in denial when I went to the gym this morning but reality crashed in as I sank to utter exhaustion for the rest of the day. But I did it! We’ll see if this is a quick or drawn out type of sickness. Also, ended up eating way more carbs than usual and I feel crazy bloated tonight. Feels like it does after a cheat day. Probably a combo or sick and bloating.

    So sorry to hear that you are and your family are getting the bug that is going around. You could be down for the long haul if it's anything like the bug going around up here. Fingers crossed that it is not!! Take it easy, and make your first priority getting well.

    That second week can be harder than the first. Lessons learned, hopefully. You are back at your starting weight, so we will call this a do-over!!

    Well done, Sara! You lost almost another whole pound and have fully cemented yourself in the 2's. Good bye 3's, FOREVER!!!! We should have popped calorie free champagne for you last week as well....for some reason it didn't register with me then. So, with my apologies for being a week late, congratulations, Sara!!! (Virtual popping ensues.....)
