Daily Post for Monday 2/19
Track: yes
Calories: no
Exercise: stairs at work and 80 squats
Water: 90 oz
Went out to dinner with my sister and her fiance, before helping them interview a potential wedding DJ. They picked and treated me. Very sweet.... I only ended up about 200 calories over, so I don't think I did too badly. It could have been far worse, if I had gone with other food choices. I tried to pick the a better food option, and to save calories for it.... But I didn't know where we were going, till I was in the car on the way there.
The past 4-5 days have been a struggle to stay in my calories. We have had celebrations, and family over, friends over, then going out to eat..... Plus TOM showed up..... So keeping my cravings in check has been difficult as well.
But I am proud to say that I have not had any more M&Ms in the closet!!

HAPPY TUESDAY TEAM SLIMSONS
DAY 17
TODAY'S MOTIVATION TIP: STRENGTH
I am on my way to for an ENDOSCOPY procedure, nervous about going under but believing God will give me the strength to get through this as well.
I know I have a lot going in in my head space but I'll try to do better in catching up to your posts this week.
In the mean time whatever you're struggling with remember YOU have strength and courage to continue on this journey.💪🏽💪🏽
Have a blessed and beautiful day!
Regards,
Glorious Gloria

I was a little surprised 😯 that I wasn’t down as I have been below calories and working out. We did dine out more last week and with the weather was cold I didn’t hike/walk nearly as much; however, did barre and golfed a few days.
Next week! 🙋♀️🏋️♀️🦵🙌

Thank you. I appreciate this advice. Just have to figure out what is better for me. You would think under 100 gms of carbs in a day no problem but everything has carbs. Lol.I’m finding it hard to stay under my carbs and do low fat at the same time. I’ll get there. Lol.
@vicky2767 You need to do one or the other, if you're doing low carbs, don't do low fat and if you're doing low fat don't do low carbs, you need a fuel source and absent carbs (glucose), your body can use fat, but if you're not giving your body fuel, you're going to have a hard time doing low carb, so do a little higher on the fat, you don't have to go overboard, but don't go super low on both. You can also do moderate in both.
You will make it happen. Hang in there.batgirl140 wrote: »Daily check in Feb 18

Boys were home with me today. Still not feeling 100%. I’m going to be really busy this next week but want to get exercise back in my week somewhere! Need to just make it happen.
Awww Hang in there only a few more days.Daily Post (Monday)
Track: Yes
Calories: Yes, OMAD
Exercise:Yes, 30 mins walking, 30 mins elliptical, 60 mins weight training.
Comments: Day 2 no fridge, walking up and down the stairs to the garage is getting old, and making my own ice is also getting old, really going to appreciate the new fridge when it gets here, so I guess there's that. 3 more days. I can make it. My calves are getting the workout of their lives, with all the stairs. So, I guess it's not a total loss, but still not a lot of fun.
Hugs. You’ll get those cravings in check. And like you said, at least you weren’t in the closet with those M&Ms lolDaily Post for Monday 2/19

Thank you. I appreciate this advice. Just have to figure out what is better for me. You would think under 100 gms of carbs in a day no problem but everything has carbs. Lol.
I just try to moderate carbs. I "try" to stay under 100 carbs and over 100 protein.....but it is really hard and I have not been too successful at it lately. I don't worry about counting fats that much. I do stay under my calorie goal.0 -

Hi all,
So my boys are off and we are leaving Thursday night for vacation--- I am trying to squeeze as much workout as I can in before then and behave with my diet!! And already feeling the guilt of vacation food and relaxation 😆🤦🏻♀️. Will have to start all over when I return, but gotta live a little right? Then cardio & lift like the devil when I return--💥💪🏻😝💥💫
@AB0215 Ashley, I will have to weigh in on Thursday morning again and then I won't be able to weigh in the following week (which I think is our last) until Sunday, March 3rd---just in time for the March challenge!
HAPPY MONDAY --- Keep inspiring all!!❤️🙌❤️
have fun on vacation1 -
I’m finding it hard to stay under my carbs and do low fat at the same time. I’ll get there. Lol.
@vicky2767 You need to do one or the other, if you're doing low carbs, don't do low fat and if you're doing low fat don't do low carbs, you need a fuel source and absent carbs (glucose), your body can use fat, but if you're not giving your body fuel, you're going to have a hard time doing low carb, so do a little higher on the fat, you don't have to go overboard, but don't go super low on both.

great advice I try to do a moderate on both and seems to be working2 -

Had my upper GI procedure today it was omly supposed to be 10-15 minues turn into 5hrs due to complications but by His Grace I'm still here. Also I didn't lose my voice so another positive, 2 yrs ago when I had this procedure I lost my voice for 3 days possibly because I was laying down then and sitting up this time; but I couldn't eat until 6:30 so only had 1 unhealthy high Calorie meal today2 -
