I am rebooting the weighing and logging again too. Two full weeks back from UK, plus the Easter Weekend is now also in the rear-view mirror.
Despite being full time back on home turf since April 2, my record for Pass Days Taken This Month is ..... let's just say "4+ before April 7th"
Also rebooting the usual walking exergame, rather than continuing to pine over the terrain that is no longer available to me.6 -
Pass day. Still on vacation in NYC. Lots of walking but nothing else. I am inspired by all of your plans to get back on track. For me that will happen on Thursday.
My food scale also stays out all the time- but it did not come to NYC with me.4 -

Exercise today was 25 mins walking around the building at work and 10 mins of yoga tonight.
I'm circling back around to Monday, because it was my anniversary (7 years!) and I completely forgot about the 2 glasses of wine that I had when I got home from work. (I'm not usually a wine drinker, and obviously hadn't pre-logged it!) Going back and putting it in my diary put me over for the 18th.
Update: ✖️✅✅1 -

Well My plans to stay on track are:
1) Time box my week/track how I'm spending my 168 hours/make room for important things
2) Pre-posting my 3 YES to set my implementation intention
3) Looking to do my 20 minute workout in the morning before the day gets too busy
Goal for Monday is to think ahead and prep mentally for the dinners/meals for the week.
But I think doing those three things consistently right now will give me the most return on investment.
My son turned 6 on Saturday and I worked on Easter Sunday. It was a celebratory weekend. I too look forward to getting back on track.
Sorry about the delay @stayfitter my phone ended up in water so I am phoneless atm. TBH I have liked the break from tech but miss my MFP. Sounds like you got a solid plan. Hope this week is going well for you! Happy birthday to your son. 6 is a cute age! xox2 -

I feel so much better after hearing that cause dispite juggling being a mum, a wife, work, cooking, cleaning, being a sister, daughter and friend I hve still hve managed to get up 5 days a week run, do weights, meditate, hve a shower before bed, track my food as best as I can, be aware of wen I am comfort eating, stick with UAC, go for a walk on lunch break on some days and lastly be comfy eating at maintaince. So yeah I am really not doing too bad. Xo
Wow @donna25trinity !! Seriously! Wow! I'm catching up on posts that I missed over the weekend, and came across this one of yours from the 15th!! YOU GO GIRL!!!! Um, YEAH! You are doing excellent in my book. You make me look "lazy".... Lol. Huge Kudos to you!!
aww thanks boss and no way you are not lazy.. I remember back in the day seeing all your stretching and super long walks that you did and i would think wow she does alot as do so many others on here, Seeing that everyday def helped inspire me to get moving more!! Suppose being on here made it the new normal! xoxo1 -

Measuring and weighing everything again to confirm my “eyeball estimates” are on track and keep myself honest with myself. Started today and will keep at this for the full week. So far so good. Underestimated how much peanut butter I could have — so I am a happy camper! 🥜🐒 I find this is a good way for me to help myself when it feels like a bit of a slog to keep going.
Wishing everyone a good week ahead. 💐
Sorry about the delay @jamcnewman..Ate peanut butter today and thought of you. LOL! Well it was actaully Pb2 powder but kinda the same thing. Great thing that you underestimated on the peanut butter as that stuff has so much calories. That was one of the foods i got shocked about wen I started counting calories. The other one was nuts.. I used to inhale nuts like there was no tomorrow and yes I understand they are good fats etc but dam I literally don't think i have eaten a nut since. LOL. Good thinking with the measuring your food.. It def makes a difference and I hope its been going well for you this week. xoxoxosxo2 -

@donna25trinity We were really busy the week leading up to Easter so we actually didn't have an Easter dinner this year which is unusual but on the plus side I didn't have to worry about navigating a big meal. My husband did get me Easter chocolate so I'll portion that out over the next few months.
yeah your right sounds like it was a good thing in a way @ashleycarole86 xoxoxo1 -
