    Daily Post: Sunday
    Track: No
    Calories: Probably not. Sunday dinner is not easy to keep count, but the words "fried chicken" do not bode well.
    Exercise: I have walked at least a couple of miles today.
    Goals: I am not doing a good job with will power. My goals for the week will be daily check in even if its just to admit that I have failed miserably...

    Daily Post: 4/7 (Sunday)

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Goal: 1500/Actual: 1147
    Exercise Yes; Zombies, Run! (The Object is a Hungry Wolf) (37 mins - walking around community room)
    Goals: Look to solutions to food shortage issues without screwing up calories and nutrition.
    I realized today that I have $1 until May 3. I may have a small amount of a credit line available for next week's groceries, the week after no. I do get $39 in food stamps the following week. I have stuff in my pantry that I have had for awhile such as ravioli that I don't eat as it's not on my diet. However, beggers can't be choosers. I will do what I can. Fasting every other week is not an option. I will go to a food pantry when I need to.

    Sunday, 4/7 Check in (Week 2)
    Username: Toyota100
    PW: 225.0
    CW: 224.8

    Moving down a tad bit. I tracked 4/7 days, so it helped some. I'm going to continue tracking as much as possible. I know tracking works for me. The scale moves only if I stay accountable and work out.

    Monday April 8
    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: No
    Goals or Day: Sorry I didn't post this weekend (I'm not on the computer much when I'm not at work!). Went to the local community festival and had a blast! Did a ton of walking (over 6 miles- that's a ton for me). Had a burger and fries from one food truck for lunch and then steamed jumbo shrimp from another near dinner time (with a few bites of my other half's pork belly and rice). Still lost weight! I didn't get terrible things (like the deep fried oreos!), but still indulged. That's what makes this a lifestyle instead of a diet! Happy Monday everyone!

    I was terrible at tracking over the weekend. I realized that I "forgot" things. Doing better with water. Had a super cheat day on Friday afternoon and all day Saturday. Really regret it, but back for more success this week.

    Hi team! Just wanted to check in and say I'm back from my trip so I will pick back up with daily posts this week! I'm a little nervous for weigh in this week, because I took a mental break and just ate what I wanted on this trip. I'm hoping its not too bad considering we also walked 7 or more miles a day which is way above my normal step count. Hoping those two cancelled out some what! But while I am bummed to be back to reality, I am super excited to get back on track with my normal nutritional routine! I'm hoping that is a sign that this time it truly is a lifetime routine, because historically if I fell off the wagon I just continued to stay off and find excuses to continue to eat whatever I wanted. Today I am super excited to get back to eating healthy, nutritious foods! Fingers crossed!

    @jwall309 Went to that mall that had the Shake Shack this weekend. I told my husband about it and he was fired up to take the journey! The drive was about a hour. We go to Illinois on a regular basis to eat. However, I didn't go to the Shake Shack. I did take a picture of it, but don't know how to upload from the computer. The outlet mall was very upscale though. Lot's of restaurants. We ate at the Cheese Cake Factory. We haven't been there in quite sometime. There was three new restaurants I can't wait to try 1. Epic Burger 2. Shake Shack and 3. Nando's Peri Peri. I did get a shake from Epic Burger and it was ok. Let me know if you have the other two restaurants in the DC/Maryland area too?

    Daily Post (Monday 4/08)

    Track: Yes
    Calories: Yes; Day 2 of lower intake. I have an extra weekly reward for myself for 7 days of no binging.
    Exercise: Yes 10 mins
    10 Min outside; 5m downhill then back up.
    Daily Goals: ACHIEVED! 4 personal points~ for mindset with morning affirmations and improve my night routine/habits to stop after dinner binges. Now the KITCHEN IS CLOSED. Teeth brushed. And in bed.

    Today didn’t go as planned; but it wasn’t a total flop. So I am going to continue to find ways to stay on track & count the positives, regardless of how the schedule gets messed up. I am going to continue to do my best and be kind, even if it's not a perfect day... I'm still getting in check marks. My focus is primarily on tracking food and making those hard, but good choices; and exercise today was a bonus!! Making small habit changes, like finding spots to park that are further away.

    Do you look up the menus prior to going out to eat?

    Daily Post: (April 8)

    Track: yes
    Calories: Yes; goal 1370, food 1144, cal remain 226
    Exercise: yes, spent day walking at the park.
    Goals/Day: took Monday off of work to spend the day with my boyfriend. We headed out early to go fishing at the lake and we didn’t catch anything. Left there and drove to the river to fish there, fishing was no good there either, so we hiked along the river and walked some trails. We were out and about for a good 5-6 hours. Was a beautiful day. Kept my water intake positive.

    @Fitgirllife72~ Hooray on the double workout! WOW! I’m excited to see what kind of results you get. Did you measure any body parts before starting? Do you measure on a regular basis at all? I last measured in January.

    @Jammypea~ woooo hoooo on the loss!

    @Tomkinsone~ Sounds like a great day! Yeah for you.

    Tuesday April 9
    Track: Yes
    Calories: Under
    Exercise: No
    Goals or Day: Better half surprised me with Texas Roadhouse for dinner last night. Let me place the order (for pickup) so I could get what I wanted. Typically would've ordered the Carb-aholic with a side of carbs and for dessert more carbs... had salad and a small steak and stayed under calories. Woohoo!
