Doing a structured training plan to make me stronger. Today’s workout was pretty hard. Hoping the weather is better tomorrow so I can go back outside and take a break from it (LOL).
@KakoHikes Betcha it’s your loss that brought it down, which makes it a win. Congratulations on the loss!1 -

Hi Guys!
I am so sorry I have been MIA, I guess when it rain is pours sometimes? I'm back with a gain, so I am sorry for wiping anyone's work this week! Sorry its a couple days late too.
I won't lie, I was in incredible pain and I didn't realise how bad my anxiety is without medication. I am sure it's a psychological thing but food and not moving seemed to be the only thing that made me feel half human! I also napped multiple times during the day which is super abnormal for me. You guys must think I am a walking disaster but I promise I am just an over sharer
I promise you I am normally quite a happy and healthy person, definitely a drama queen though
Onto better things this week! Husband is being deployed Saturday morning so although I am very much behaving today, tomorrow and Saturday are going to have to be good choices but how on earth do you track calories when you're at restaurants? Also I am not denying myself bottomless brunch
Will be keeping my step count up though, might even be brave enough to do some exercise again

Exercise notes:
I didn't go on a walk, but I was up and down the stairs several times trying to get garage sale stuff together for this weekend. Stairs are a LOT of work, holy moses (especially when trying to carry boxes up and down). Honestly surprised I didn't fall due to being so clumsy.2 -

I'm sorry you were going through all that! I hope you're starting to feel better. One day at a time.
I usually look up the restaurants menu. A lot of places now have a calorie count next to the meal as well. So you can see what you're getting before you decide. MyFitnessPal is pretty good at having items from restaurants in the list as well if you just type in the restaurant in search.2 -
Week 2, Day 4
Wednesday 07/14
Tracked: Yes
Under calories: Yes
Exercise: Yes, 47 minute walk outside. My time had improved on that loop by almost 10 minutes this year. I still had to pause briefly on the hill to catch my breath, and then once to watch mama and baby deer

I enabled this weird MFP feature to account for estimated calories burned and now I can’t find it again! If I’m recalling the explanation correctly it’s basically fluctuating my calorie Goal based on where I SHOULD be as an “active” person. I believe MFP described it as a more accurate way to account for how your activity is effecting your caloric goals. They did suggest the feature to be enabled only if you regularly sync your activity tracker and then your MFP diary throughout your day. I’m finally getting the hang of the fluctuation and I gotta say .. I’m really liking it so far.. it’s keeping me on my toes!! Will know more as I continue on with it!

Exercise notes:
Another day of setting out garage sale crap; going up and down stairs, lifting heavy boxes, setting stuff out. That is a LOT of work. I was exhausted by the time I was done to the point I fell right asleep as soon as I laid down for bed. I forgot to set my alarm for work, too! (Only a few minutes late, thankfully). Definitely going on a walk tonight. It's been a couple days and it makes me feel lazy, lol3 -

A little (50) over calories today. Felt like I needed it, so I ate a little extra. Probably TOM related. I could have made it up with a little exercise, but I didn’t want to tie my exercise to my diet…seems like they should be unrelated to each other. One is fun, one less so

Week 2, Day 5
Thursday 07/15
Tracked: Yes
Under calories: Yes
Exercise: yes, 45 minutes walking outside. Beat my time by two minutes! No deer to distract me this time.
Tried tofu for the first time, was a super simple recipe, dipped pieces in egg, coated them in panko and baked them in the oven. Quite nummy with some ketchup. Will have to try a different recipe next time now that I now it is not awful. Was talking to some friends who tried frog legs and alligator, which makes me cringe but they thought that was okay but then they think tofu is abhorrent. It’s funny what different tastes people have.

My favorite sauce for baked tofu is Thai peanut sauce. A bit of a splurge but you can slim it down if you make it yourself. Sooooo yummy!!

@Krysless2 Yes, but scrolling back I don’t see it posted. Probably hit “done” instead of “post reply” or something. So that explains how I got the day mixed up. I scroll to my latest and update by one day.

Week 2, Day 6
Friday 07/16
Tracked: Yes
Under calories: Yes, barely but yes
Exercise: yes, 40 minutes ring fit adventure
I did make stuff for my lunches/dinners for the next few days. Turkey burgers, meatloaf, salads and roasted broccoli. I find it easier to make several things at a time and extras for a few days, even if it does give me more dishes to do short term.
I haven’t tried anything Thai before. There is a newish Thai food cart in the area I have been tempted to try, but always go with my favorites instead. May just need to try the peanut sauce some day
