Hello all!
It was a little easier today. I got another x3.
Yesterday I went over my dailies but it was offset by over 400+ calories of exercise, placing me at 178 calories in the deficit.
Today, I was surrounded again with temptation but I managed to break even with my daily goal. In addition, I earned more calories with a short exercise session (20 min of cardio and 10 min of resistance) placing me further into a comfortable deficit.
Good night all! Have a successful day tomorrow.4 -
On track with calories and tracking as well as exercise (walking to and from the grocery store).
But trying to figure out the syncing between my new Fitbit and MFP. So far it seems like anything I'm logging in mfp (aka food) is syncing to my fitbit, but my steps, exercise and calories data isn't syncing from my Fitbit into mfp. Ultimately I couldn't finish my mfp diary
I will need to do more research and figure out what's going on with this one-sided sync issue. 4 -

Exercise - yes
Track - yes
Budget - yesCan't sleep. Might as well summarize the week.
Little Buddy came over today. Counting that as exercise when really it is more like work. Pushed him up the hill coming back from the donut shop. That is a hefty jaunt. Tracked my donut. I got to get Buddy to do some tracking. I told his mom once that if we let him pile on the pounds it will have a cascading deleterious effect. Today I worked on teaching him to get in and out of a car. In the past just pick him on up and heft him on in. He is getting to big for that.
Mostly pass days through the week for me. Lethargic on tracking.
I got some good exercise but I heard once somewhere that you can't outrun a bad diet.
So exercise isn't doing me any good if I eat right on past it.
I got upwards of 4,000 feet of climb in 4 days. I think that might be 2,000 calories.
Sunday and Monday I got a few hundred calories of spin or indoor bicycling.
But I am just wasting my knees if I eat right on past that.
Heh! I used to be big on spin class a couple of years back.
Been trying to remember the name of that spin instructor for a couple of days.
Just came to me - Janet was her name.
One time her IPOD didn't work so the class was stuck without music to spin by. That was back in the days before music streaming like Pandora etc.
But I had my little IPOD shuffle so I kind of saved the day, on one hand, but people kind of thought my music was kind of weird.
Here is my proposal for exercising on a spin bike to classical music.

Exercise? Yes. 60 minute walk early in the morning. Ended with 13k steps due to busy day (which is a lot for me).
Within my calories goal? YES! Thought this might be a pass day because of a company Christmas party, but even if my guesses are off a little, I have enough calories remaining to feel confident that I am under!
Tracked everything? Yep, as well as possible on a day that I ate other's cooking. Took photos of my food at the party so I could calculate afterwards.
Conclusion:
It's possible that Yule log cake is my new favorite dessert. Yummy!4 -
Yes x 35

@oldDogBarking Beautiful music. Thanks for posting it. I agree, we can't outrun a bad diet!2

Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? 5 mile run this morning
Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes and under
Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yep!5 -
The last 3 days have all been passes. No logging and I’m sure I was way over on calories.
Friday we had about 40 friends and family for our holiday party- the highlight is the Christmas light parade that goes past our house. It was such a wonderful night.
Back on track for Sunday- the house and I have almost recovered. I haven’t stepped on the scale since Wednesday and I’m expecting a big spike since I ate lots of carbs and had so many sweets and eggnog.
Worth every bite!
