    Pass day 10 or something

    I posted in "What's on Your Mind" about my new plan to reduce my calorie intake but not by cutting the number on MFP but by no longer counting my exercise calories (which don't amount to much, 100-200 a day). Also as part of that being really strict about not grazing/snacking/munching on food that isn't in the plan.

    Exercise: 15 minutes MommaStrong, 40 minutes walk in the snow, 20 minutes clearing snow off my car (I think that counts - it was a lot of snow!)
    Tracking: Planned the day
    Calories: I was within the plan until my wife offered my daughter some cheesecake pudding she'd made. I said, "Can I try?" and she brought me a little dish. I ate it all. And it was good. But it was missing a crust, so I had to have a cookie too. Oof.

    But the weight did actually go down anyway, so I think that this plan is working...

    @Mrs_Hoffer – a pint of ice cream! Did you enjoy it? Sometimes we just give in to those cravings.

    @LazyBlondeChef – checking in every day is good. It’s a pity you aren’t able to get your exercise in, but well done estimating the calories.

    Exercise: no
    Tracked all: no
    Calories under: no
    But, I'm coming here regularly... so accountability for just coming into MFP everyday & checking in with this wonderful group. Today, was another extremely rough day .. a super stressful work day. I gotta stop letting it get to me. Why am I turning to food?! There was a time when I used to turn to exercise for stress relief. I will get there, again!!!
