JFT Friday
1. No candy no
2. No cookies yes
3. Eat under my calorie limit yes
4. Yoga yes
5. Fast marching no
6. Eat salad yes
7. Get mom to her appointment yes
So I finally broke down and had a little chocolate candy, a single tablespoon which is a reasonable amount. No harm as long as it stops there.
I missed the fast marching this morning and decided to let it go this evening. Just because it was a long day. So I did not move towards my big goals today. But I don't think I lost much ground.
The scale was disappointing. Can't really say what the difference is because my weekly start point got screwed up, but I saw 168 then finished at 169.9. Gotta stop eating my exercise calories. And drink more water.
JFT Saturday
1. No candy
2. No cookies
3. Eat under my calorie limit
4. Dumbbells 40 reps
5. Eat a vegetable

@Anniesquats100 - You've been doing great! The scale can seem like a fickle friend, but there are so many things that can affect weight on any given day - high sodium, poor sleep, anything that causes inflammation, etc. I'm really sensitive to sodium, and my weight can shoot up a couple of pounds or more after a takeout meal. It's likely that your higher weight at the end of the week is a temporary blip. However, you might want to consider eating back only a portion of your exercise calories, maybe 50-75%, since the calorie burn estimates can be off.1

I've got my daughter's boys today, so I'm not sure what I'll get done. If the weather cooperates, we'll all be going down to the beach for a concert this evening. Then hopefully I get my husband back tomorrow!

I had a really nice Saturday with my grandsons. After a brief downpour at lunchtime, the weather cleared and we went to the park for a walk and some time on the playgound. I got a second walk in at the beach before the concert. It was a gorgeous evening - warm with light breeze - and the light on the ocean was just magic.
My food choices weren't great - takeout for lunch and boardwalk food for dinner - and i gave up trying to figure out how to log it. I'll be back on track today.

Hour commitment - Ashamed to say, but I just binged after DH took dogs for walk. No rhyme or reason, but ate a lot of sugar stuff while he is gone. I feel awful. Oh well, it still happens once in a long while. Now I won't eat again until early dinner with DH and FIl. No more desserts today. Shoot, I'm going to feel yucky the rest of the day and for a few days. Years ago I would have made myself vomit, but I don't do "that" anymore. What an awful habit that was and so hard to quit.

A little serenity...

@more_freggies76 it's okay we all get off course once in awhile. Just start over wherever you are. I used to eat too much Sunday dinner, then try to skip the evening meal, and end up binging on cookies. April was a bad diet month for me. But I'm slowly growing away from that, and I'm sure you will too. Recognizing how bad the sugar overload feels is the first step. And I'm sorry you had to go through the vomiting part. Hope that never comes back.

Well I busted my calorie limit by 53 calories because I was feeling sorry for myself and ate six cookies. Tomorrow is going to be worse - I'm going out to lunch then to a cookout for dinner. I may not have time for exercise. I am torn between enjoying the food vs seeing a loss on Friday. I'm already thinking cheat day, now I need to own my decision and not obsess over it.
JFT Monday
1. Log everything
2. Enjoy my family and friends

I didn't find time to get online over the weekend, busy with holiday let, laundry, family, and gardening. Also walked to the park last night. I'm not snacking as much now, purely because I don't have any left that I like! I will be food shopping today, that will be the test.

Kids are off school for 2 weeks now. And they've woken me and ash up every single day. I know that's kids. I know that's what they do. But my issue is that they're waking us up earlier than a school day. On school days I go in at 7.30 and wake THEM up.
They're getting up now around half 6 - 7. And to me, that's just no. I've never been a morning person..never will be. The only reason I have ever got up early over the last 8 years is purely for the kids.
All I'm asking is an extra half an hour
Til 8am. In my mind that seems reasonable.
I wouldn't even mind if they were up and played quietly. But they don't. They wake up and start fighting basically. So I'm waking up to screaming and shouting, then that sets me off for a bad day. It's awful being woken like that.
Needless to say my diet hasn't really been planned. Just been eating whatever and not even logging. And I don't know how to get any exercise in. When they were little I used to do it when they'd gone bed. But I was also younger then and could manage that. Now I'm older I'm knackered myself by that time.
I wanna do it in the day
I only need 30 mins
But they are literally incapable of leaving me alone for that amount of time.
*Sigh*
This ended up being more of a rant hahah

@Bex953172 that does sound truly annoying to be woken up like that.
I decided not to wear shorts even though it will be ninety degrees out. I just can't face trying them on.
