My steps were 5,609 on Monday.
Today my steps are 6, 7881 -
I didn't have many steps today, but I biked 16 miles which was 450 calories. That's a win! My food intake was fine although I have to make sure to get more vegetables into my diet. Normally I eat a lot of veggies, but the last few days I haven't. My goal - chop them up early in the morning so I can eat them while I work at my computer tomorrow.
Interesting fact - I was tracking all my food for September and was certain I lost weigh, only to see that I had gained weight. What??? My husband eats what I make and his pants are falling off of him. I asked him if he wanted to bike with me at 5:00. He agreed, but I thought he should just sit his skinny butt on the sofa and watch TV. I want him to be healthy too, so off we went on our biking adventure. His skinny butt hurt after the ride, but mine was just fine. (only benefit to be carrying around extra weight)1 -

Tracked Yes
Under Calorie Yes
Water 128oz
Steps 9499
Exercise 30 min walking video with HIIT
I had my niece all day and we also invited my parents over in the evening to watch football. I knew I wasn't going to be able to get outside for a walk so I found a 30 minute video on youtube by Leslie Sansone. Crazy that those videos are such a good workout, kinda kicked my butt haha.1 -
My Fitbit died when I woke up this am. I had to charge it during my morning cardio workout. Anyone else feel like it didn’t happen if you can’t track it. 😢
YES! I started charging my cheap version of Fitbit at night while I sleep when it gets low. Although I like seeing my sleep levels, I'd rather have my calories and steps.1 -

Men drop weight so much quicker and can eat more calories. Us women have to work so much harder. Well done for the bike ride0 -
I am honestly confused with MFP. They are giving me credit for exercise and taking it away. Does this happen to anyone?

I most of the times use the phone. But the days I use the computer of my girlfriend, Oh my! That's much better!0 -

230.2 is my weight. I just can’t seem to bring these numbers down.
I have been tracking, I have been working out. I just have to try harder.
Same here! But I hope some day will go down!0 -

Yesterday went pretty well. Did 10 minutes of ab exercises, as I tried to do it first thing in the morning, and found I don't have that much motivation that early to do such things. But they're a bit sore, and a tiny bit is better than nothing. Today I'll be doing C25K W2D1. Hope everyone has a great Wednesday!1

CW (Current Weight):186.6
SW (Starting Weight): 187.2
Tracked Yes
Under Calorie No
Steps 8978 tracked, Fitbit dead through cardio workout until mid Morning
Exercise 39 min 10 rounds boxing workout
Yesterday was ok, I wasn’t able to walk much other than a short dog walk since I had the kids. Did my meal planning and food shopping for the week. Dinner was the leftover Asian pork turned into ramen. I loved it my husband doesn’t like it because he thinks it is too messy to eat. I was hoping for a slightly larger loss but a loss is a loss I guess. My body does not shed weight quickly at all. My goal is to stay focused on week two and not fall off as I tend to do.
