April 17th
✅ - take 10,000 steps. 16,000
✅ - drink 80 oz water. 80
❎ - eat at/under calorie goal - whoa nelly - things really went off the rail yesterday. But man - I feel fantastic this morning! Perhaps I really needs those extra 2,200 calories? Going to be more sensible from here on in. Severe calorie deficit worked when I had more body fat. Not any more - sends me in a tailspin after about a week.

Sorry guys I've been appalling with my check ins lately, have only been half logging too.
So hard to get back into a routine.
This week's goals:
🚶🏻♀️ 30 minutes of activity per day
📉 250 cal deficit average (per Libra)
📝 100% logging of all foods/drinks4 -
April 18th
✅ - take 10,000 steps. 22,000
❎ - drink 80 oz water. Not sure how much - but too much for a long walk. Not sure how I'm going to handle this situation. But going to stop tracking water next week for sure because the need to wee is becoming a major issue and no shewee in sight yet - and even if it was - it won't always be an option.
❎ - eat at/under calorie goal - whoa nelly redux - not as bad as Saturday, but the track was nowhere in sight last night. My own fault, because dinner was later I figured I would just skip my planned evening snack of yogurt and berries and walnuts thinking it would help make up for Saturday's binge, but that just didn't fly. That box of Bisquick that has sat on the shelf for almost a year, minding its own business, not bugging me at all, turned itself into a plate of pancakes. Have to do some serious rethinking; last year's approach just isn't working in 2021.

As long as your pee is pale straw color (pictures/charts exist online)... you're hydrated.
if reasonably more liquid helps with caloric management why not; but I don't personally log water or have a personal goal regarding water. Mind you.... each day I drink a (filled at the ~10 cup mark) coffee pot by myself... so I probably start my day with 80oz and then there's a couple of cans of coke Zero and the occasional large or extra large decaf on the road... No wonder I'm looking for trees! 😅2 -
@lauriekallis i am still impressed with how much walking you fit it!3

@lauriekallis i am still impressed with how much walking you fit it!
Thank you! I started this last year after rehabbing from a knee injury/ surgery. Being able to walk easily again just went to my head and it has become a bit addictive. Doesn't do much for the work schedule though. Some days it feels like all I do is walk and eat and walk and eat and shop for more food to eat. The past few days there has been far too much eating in that cycle 1 -
April 19th
✅ - take 15,000 steps. 16,000 - bumping this goal up to 15,000. Don't think I'll meet it every day - but what the heck, may as well try!
❎ - eat at/under calorie goal - no - but did manage to stay under maintenance which is a step up from the past two days. Tomorrow will be the day!

Hello!
OMG....not checked in for ages! Sorry been concentrating on TDEE, BMR, RMR. Macros and trying to figure out where I’m going wrong & how to kick start some flipping weight loss!
Daily check in’s for 14th 15th 16th 17th 18th & 19th
14th 15th 16th 17th. 18th. 19th
1.Logging : 1. 1 1. 1. 1. 1. - ok, so I can log stuff ok!
2.Eat less processed 0. 1 1. 0. 0. 0. - mmm.. zero days are days off! Baking!
3. Water 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 0 - ok with H20 as not too much food!
4. Not counting this as is exercise & can’t do much! - managed to rub a sore area at top of plastic boot ... very FAST on crutches!
5. Time out / positive thoughts 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1 - alright this week!
6. Work life balance. 0. 0. 0. 1. 1. 1 - 1’s are days off! Except 17th Friday - stuff work that day!
Weigh day is tomorrow 21st!
Will try to do better at checking in folks 😬

@Janatki it looks like you're doing pretty ok for someone on crutches and a plastic boot. Keep in mind that you have slightly higher nutritional requirements while healing from an orthopedic injury. Slightly. And that there might exist some water weight associated with trauma and inflammation.
Not saying this is definitely the case with your unknown to me injury... just general things to take into account!
So I would expect your pre injury weight trends and TDEE to be more easy to establish reliably than any post injury ones2 -
Last week's check in table.
There were many more checkins last week - you all are making me work! Which inspired me to add a new column. I think we need some rewardif we check in every day of the week. If you do - you get one bonus point ... woohoo! ... since this is something new, everyone got a bonus point this week just for some spring time feel good!

@PAV888 - that’s interesting! I’m leaving my TDEE as it is as I am actually feeling better in myself on my current allotted calories than before my accident... I was feeling washed out & weak ... not good as I also have lupus & hypothyroidism. GP has requested I to get bloods checked this Friday, just to ensure thyroxine is at correct dose
@lauriekallis- ah sorry, appreciate your hard work & will try to check in more regularly! 😬 At same %age as last week - ok with.that Not easy this 🤪3 -
I’ve been largely doing okay...dredging along and then bam..I overeat to make myself feel just a tad better after a challenging day (and the day isn’t over yet..already at cal limit). It’s these habits I’m trying to change or I’ll always keep yo-yo ing.
1) log every day ☑️
2) min of 4000 steps/day - ☑️
3) drink 6 glasses water/day - ☑️
6) 250 cal deficit every day - not even close 🤦♀️
Hope everyone else killed it today.

✅ - take 15,000 steps. 19,000 - got a good lakeside walk in tonight with a friend after grandson went home. Freakin' chilly though. Woke up to snow - real snow not just a dusting! - on the ground this morning. Tulips and daffodils poking through, looking so out of place.
❎ - eat at/under calorie goal - no. that went really bad again.
