Daily Post (Wednesday)

Track: Yes
Calories: over...oops
Exercise: just a quick walk with the dog, met my step goal for the day.
Goal/Day: It was a good day. Got a lot done around the house. It was pouring this morning when I was going to go to my gym class, so i didn't go because my daughter would of had to walked to practice in a downpour. I got in a small walk between raindrops today. Tomorrow is a Teacher conference day, then we have open house for students at night. Busy day tomorrow. I'm feeling stressed already. Lots to do tomorrow to prepare. I'm going to start the morning with a run with my bestie! All planned out. That will give me positive energy for the day.

One Thing Did Well: I kept attempting to track no matter what every morning this week.
One Thing To Improve: idk what it was this week but it was hard for me to stay on track. I also wasn’t drinking nearly enough water either. Since this is a new month time to get back into gear !!

Daily post Thursday

Track: yes
Calories: under
Exercise: nightly walk

I’m currently on maternity leave and have been cleaning my house like crazy. I have more steps than I usually get. I somehow don’t drink enough water though when I’m home. I don’t know what the difference is, but when I’m at work, I drink a ton of water.

Daily post Thursday
Tracked: yes
Calories: over by about 800
Exercise: no

So I undid almost 2 days worth of staying at or under my calorie goal. I had a hair under 2500 when 1700 is supposed to provide a 1 pound per week loss. I enjoyed it though and I don’t feel guilty. It was intentional and not emotion-driven! Hopefully I won’t overdo things too much this weekend as it is a holiday here and I have party plans! But it’s okay if I do because, life.

@jwall309 sorry to hear about your cat. It’s so tough losing a pet, especially having to put one down. I admire you in that even when choosing takeout, you were able to choose a healthier choice. I’m sure I would have indulged in a pint of Phish food icecream if I was in that situation.
It’s good to know the healthier takeout options. That’s something I’ll be looking into around me so I’m prepared for that when I need takeout.

@jmacaroni - Did you have a current weight? I might be looking with tired eyes, but I don't see it. Please help an ol lady out. lol thanks.

I know - I’m sorry. I’m committed but stretch for time these days. I may need help cheering each other over the next couple of months. But can continue to be the Captain if you’re okay with that. This is a good lesson for me… balance of life and keeping a healthy lifestyle through it.

@jwall309 ~ 🤗 Yes, use this group to vent. We do understand the feelings towards your cat- 4-legged kiddo. Being committed to the team is good. Thank you. We can do it! Good job on measuring out the rice with your beef/broccoli take out!!
@LululovinLIfe ~ I hear ya! We can do this. Buckle down before the months of holidays, etc. start upon us.
@ajaia2001~ Good Wednesday! Good job on knowing your limitations and using that knowledge for those meal plans.
@jupdyke~ hugs. I can only imagine the pre-work for school that you have to prepare. It’s so easy to set aside our health. But we aren’t going to do it… power through. A run with BFF… awesome way to do it!
@skullsandskeletons ~ Oh those days!! Good for you for not letting it ruin your day and health plan. I need to get back to that. I’ll show him - by either exercising, taking a bath, or just NOT eating. Instead of feeding my emotions. GOOD JOB!!
@rawrxamberx~ A stay the same is better than a gain. Good job on tracking no matter what!! Yes, I too find that not drinking enough water makes me hungrier than when I do get in my 10 waters. You can do it. You ARE doing it! You’ve got this!!
@JamieD328~ Wooohooooo a loss!
@Perla4686 ~ woooohooooo! You did a 5k run and going to your workout class. Yes, let’s focus on the positive and the fresh start in September. I’ve been trying to not use that 4-letter word… “diet.” As it makes it sound temporary. Everyone has a diet or they wouldn’t be eating. Right!? Make sense? So, I’m learning to use the words lifestyle change. The word change is scary, too. But that reminds me it’s permanent. Not temporary. So when I do derail, it’s not a total defeat, but a learning opportunity. I know it sounds like just a bunch of words; but that part of our team name… RunTrackMINDS… MINDS is the game that is the hardest for me. So… we can do this! Keep working it and coming here. We got you! And you got this!!
@jmacaroni~ Glad to see you posting a little more. Sorry, I’m not here daily as I should be. I am the same way for drinking water at home vs work. At work, I have my water bottles filled and in the fridge and at breaks grab a new water bottle. But at home… there are no breaks. I try to keep a bottle by the coffee pot to remind me to drink up; then a cold one in the fridge to drink from it often, too. My hubby laughs at me because I have water with me, even if I have coffee or tea.

Trying to get to everyone before this thread is closed for the month.

@wander216~ Good Thursday of tracking and on target eating!
@perla4686 ~ Don’t beat yourself (if I know you)... I’m doing worse. We can pull ourselves through this!! Yes we can!! HUGS
@ajaia2001~ Nice loss!!
@jwall309~ Awesome! It’s staying off! You had a lot to go through this week, emotionally and you didn’t let it derail you. big big hugs Good choice on cauliflower pizza. Balance. You are doing it.
@germain_yee: Woooo hoooooo!!! Nice loss!
