    @susanshaughnessy80 I'm so glad you had your second surgery, here's to a speedy recovery. Must be a tremendous relief to have that done, and be able to see!!

    When’s the last time you assessed your calorie in/out compared to your current MFP Caloric Goal??
    • We should do this every month as our weight fluctuates
    • We are eating way more on certain days so you should plan for this by lowering your daily goals the rest of the week
    • It would help to keep up with a Daily Average so you can see how each day affects the next!
    [EDITED to switch out websites(I found a better calculating website)[/End EDIT]
    I found this Calorie Calculator:
    https://www.calculator.net/calorie-calculator.html
    Give it a try and include your calculation in one of your posts this week!!

    @Krysless2 I only looked at it briefly but I liked the section on calorie cycling. I like that it showed how I can eat my normal 1400 during the week and eat 1800 on weekends and still lose. That's pretty much what happens to me naturally anyway. Which is why my official weigh in day is on Friday and NOT Monday. 😂😂. Much more useful site, thank you for finding it for us. 👍

    Not bad for tracking my calories much. I have been slacking but I have been so busy. My semester is wrapping up and studying and working as made it almost impossible to have a little time.
    I’m going to do better next week. I have also decided from now, I’m will be changing my weigh day to Friday.

    Still in a lot of pain from my back, hip and outer thigh. I see the hip orthopedic on Thursday. I hope he gives me a cortisone shot so I don't have to take so many pain pills and muscle relaxers.

    Happy Sunday ☀️

    Is it okay to sit out on Weigh-ins until Sunday May 1st.

    Joining this group has been amazing and has helped plan and maintain a healthy lifestyle.

    I have started a project in reorganizing the kitchen and and other things to be consistent with diet/lifestyle goals. It’s way more work than anticipated.

    I haven’t been tracking and exercising as much because completely invested in doing homework for what will be a staple diet for health and weight loss/maintenance. I have had to make purchases to “super” organize the pantry, freezer, and fridge. It is very time consuming. Once Im done with everything, I will be back better than before :)

    After my big talk in preparation for my night out, I actually sabotaged myself on Friday(all by my itty bitty self) and Saturday, when I actually was faced with temptation, I didn’t do too terribly bad. I think it was because I didn’t drink hard liquor and laid off the syrup-y drinks. But I survived it better then I thought(Still…it was a terrible calorie dense weekend overall)

    *Notes to Self: Remember you’re human and this is an inflated water weight #;

    Stay on track this week if you want to come out of April without having a gain!
