Daily Post: Tuesday
Track: yes, I track everything
Calories: (Goal 1200 I am not adding in calories gain from exercise but I am mindfully eating.) over by 84
Exercise: yes, walk, cycled, planks, push ups
Healthier Habits: mindfulness and balance to include rest

Am I happy with my progress today: Yes and No; while I did well with an early start to the day I wanted to get more steps in. However, due to elections and meetings at work plus getting over flu symptoms I listened to my body and rested. Plus I know tomorrow is a new day with a new focus and opportunity to beat yesterday.0 -

Daily Post Tuesday
Track: Yes
Calories: Over....again
Exercise: None
Day: Y'all it is so hard to stay on track when eating out constantly! Luckily we are getting groceries today so I can get back on track for the end of the week. Hoping the scale comes back down for official weigh in..... We will see its been a tough week for me!
Finding it also hard when I mentally plan out my meals then BF doesn't want what I planned for dinner or something else comes up. How do you guys cope when your plan for the day doesn't work out? This week I've been experiencing a lot of this type of problem1 -

This isn't very romantic, but my husband and I don't often eat together or eat the same things. I have control over the grocery shopping and buy what I want, and I will buy his junk and snacks for him. I will make something like chicken burgers and have mine plain while he smothers his with cheese and mayo. Or I make a vegetable-heavy red pasta sauce and keep it separate from the pasta. That way, he can load up on a ton of pasta and add cheese to his while I can keep my pasta serving low or nil. In cases where something comes up unexpectedly, I will make up for it by skipping a meal or exchanging calories from other days in the week so it comes out fairly even by the end of the week.2 -

That's a good idea. Usually when we are cooking at home, its easier cause BF is also somewhat trying to eat healthier so we agree more on what to make and I weigh all my portions out then he will just take whatever is left. This week is just been hard and draining with the move that my resolve is down for when he would rather order takeout than scrounge around for something I can throw together for dinner. My BF has a bit of a quirk that while I'm ok eating different things, he really wants to eat together. In those cases he gives in to what I want but then I feel guilty hes not eating what he wants, etc. I need to remind myself that he is an adult and if he truly did not want to eat what I was eating he doesn't have to. It's definitely a self imposed guilt.
I usually do the exchanging calories from other days to balance out, but usually that is eating really well during the week to have a bit extra on the weekends. This is just turning into a week where every day I seem to be going over and needing to try to correct the next day and failing.....maybe I just need to do my best the rest of the week and just chalk any missteps to "life happened" We moved and we have a wedding this weekend, so it might just end up being one of those weeks.1 -

Sliced my thumb open last night making my dinner salad. Opted for self-care instead of the ER. As usual, the dogs are taking good care of me. You know how hard it is to peel veggies with one hand? 🥴

Yes, this! We all can't be perfect all of the time! You do excellent more often than not, right? That's super awesome! Hugs.0
