    @cjane917 - what a great idea. On busy days I take breaks and try to go for a walk. I don’t always get to go for very long because my phone keeps ringing and I sit to talk. I will walk and talk for now on!


    Wednesday, 8/12

    Tracking: Yes
    Calories: way under - got yelled at by MFP.
    Exercise: Yes, 20 minute walk - was all I could manage and a good break. I procrastinated, as is my horrible habit, and now have to squeeze a few weeks of work into a few days to make a deadline.

    Pass days to date - 3

    @RangerRickL @cjane917 @readyornot1234 Thank you for the encouraging post about the pass-days at the beginning of today's post! I do the same thing of stopping after pass day #4. I am tracking my pass days now, currently, I am on pass day #10 (not doing so good for August ha-ha) but I am going to measure how my pass days decline as my tracking habits increase and become second nature to me. So thank you for that post!

    Today's intro comments very much hit home with me. My bad habits have landed me here on MFP and I am striving to replace my bad habits with good ones that will serve me better as I age. This is more than a weight loss journey for me. I am very glad and thankful that I found this group!

    Yes x 3 today. Since I have been struggling a bit with the diet plan for the last few days, I reviewed my diary and realized I have been eating a lot of 'snacky' foods. Today I had 3 solid meals with one snack. It seemed to work a bit better today for warding off those munchie cravings. Happy because I don't know how much will power I will have to fight it off every day! (I gave in 2 days ago.)

    @Jana_2020 Great problem solving!!!

    -139 calorie deficit (which would be a 14lb loss per year)
    Tracked to the gram
    Exercised 86 min walking

    Now back to what my weight was July 7
    Before it jumped up 1.6-2 lbs. 😄

    Continuing as I can see now I am healthy but could be a little health lighter.

    Thanks team!

    Pass #1, I exercised, but then ate a lot of random scraps of food, and didn't track.
