    Oh, weight bouncing around the same all week (hormonal water retention, which i just compounded with sore muscles), but I have diligently logged it every day.

    1. Made good food choices, but went out to eat as was our anniversary, so definitely ate too many calories.
    2. Rest day from running, but walked 7 miles mainly doing errands and cleaning the house.

    1. Returned to my normal diet today.
    2. 4 mile training run plus another 4 miles walked. Aside from my Thursday ‘big runs’, starting to taper my distances in preparation for the Thanksgiving half marathon.

    Goals met. ❌
    12,329 steps.

    Again I stayed under my calorie goal, but went over my carb goal by 9g. We ate out last night and I had a salad with pulled pork. Kinda boring, but it was the only thing on the menu that didn't have excessive carbs!

    @eneild That's so cool that you're going to run a half marathon on Thanksgiving! I'll be watching your posts to see how you do! Kudos!

    I have been scarce the last few days, but still logging and keeping up with things!
    Friday was a good day, under carbs, over on protein and rode 23.25 miles in the morning. Finished the day with 13K steps.

    Saturday was a so-so day food wise, good on calories but over on carbs and ok on protein. Stayed active all day cleaning and organizing in the garage and doing chores around the house, 7k steps for the day.

    Sunday was a low food day (finished with less than 1k calories eaten - just wasn't hungry yesterday), good on carbs but low on protein. 5k+ steps for the day.

    I’ve been MIA on here over the last week and need to buckle down. I had good days of calories below maintenance and one day where I couldn’t eat enough. Needless to say, carbs have been all over the board too. Snacking has actually not been bad and I did have some drinks Saturday but nothing major that put me way over calorie goals. I’m sure the scale would show me the results were I to hop on but I determined before the month started that I would use my clothes as a gauge. My activity has been pretty high so I think that helps when I lack judgment on my food choices. We’ll see where the week goes this week!

    Food, check. Walk only a check for today. No progress on container garden. Quite fatigued atm, hopefully just weekend busyness catching up on me.

    Snacking- I nibbled some chocolate during the day but nothing after dinner. Had I not had what I did, my calories would have nailed my ideal deficit for the day.

    Carbs/protein 😁 pretty good day. I filled up on protein but had some greens that upped my carbs. The sweets are out of the house so if I can avoid impulse buys I’ll be doing good.

    Goals met. ❌
    16,175 steps.

    Walked 5 miles outdoors, and did 40 mins of core/ab exercises on youtube. I stayed under on my calories, but went over on my carbs by 11 because I made some yummy Chocolate Avocado Pudding and ate just a little too much of it!!

    Megan, I do hope you get to feeling better SOON!!! I felt a little yucky yesterday, but it was from doing a little too much ab work the day before. As the day wore on my sides hurt more and more. Good thing I did most of my exercising in the morning!

    Carbs under by 8 on Monday and only over by 1 yesterday
    Step so far this week 21k
    Strength training Monday

    Used my bike trainer yesterday for the first time in a long while. This will be a good winter option for me for sure.

    Feeling pretty good this week.
