Mommy's Losing It! (closed group)

Evening, Everyone,
MFP and my doc set my calories for about 1250 everyday.
Sample menu:
Breakfast, almost every day of the week: old-fashioned Quaker Oatmeal, with 1 tsp of peanut butter stirred in. Tastes like desert for breakfast.
Lunch--soup and/or salad. I also like fruit and yogurt.
Dinner--salad, baked fish or chicken, lots of vegetables. And I always save room for a little desert, even if I go over my calories.0 -
It's Friday and it's weigh in day. I am at (drum roll, please) 150!!!
This was my original goal when I started MFP back in April!! How I got here isn't story time material, but nonetheless, the weight is gone! Whoo hoo!
I have been going back and forth about whether to add another 10# loss to my goal. Given that Thanksgiving and then Christmas are right around the corner, I'm going to amend my goals to just maintain my weight until January. If I can get through all the holiday parties without gaining weight, I will be far ahead of previous years.
Everyone have a great weekend!0 -
WooHoo !!!! Good for you. What a great accomplishment. Just goes to show that ..."you can do it"0

weigh in ..... 141
gained 1lbs ...
Not going to stress about it, just going to work harder0 -
No weight change this week. Thankful that I didn't gain. I didn't make great food choices this week. I did stay close to my calories most days and still worked out 4 days. Not expecting a loss this next week given that I will be out of town with family during the thanksgiving holidays but if I can maintain this week I will be happy. Still going to workout, of course. Good luck to everyone this next week and have a restful and yummy Thanksgiving.
BW: 163
CW: 138.5 (no change)
GW: 125
Blessings,

I've been Mia for awhile, been busy sewing, I am determinded to get something listed in my Etsy shop before Christmas if it kills me!!
Anyways, I have been staying away from the scale lately, I don't think I've checked my weight for 3 weeks? I started lifting as heavy as I can, so I know betwen water retention for muscle repair and actual muscle gain I'm sure I've put on some weight. My clothes fit nice, so that's what I'm focusing on for now.0 -
Topic of the week: What is your daily calorie intake target? Give an example of your food menu for one day.

1 scoop pure protein powder
8oz unsweetened vanilla almond milk
Breakfast~
2 eggs scrambled
1 1/2 cups tapinaki veggies with white sauce
Lunch~
3oz salad made with red leaf lettuces and baby spinach
1 hard boiled egg
1.5 oz deli ham
1/3 cup shredded cheese
2T newmans own olive oil & vinegar
16oz crystal light
Afternoon snack~
1 scoop protein powder
80z almond milk
Dinner~
4 oz Grilled chicken breast
1 1/2 cups veggies (anything but corn)
1/2 cup of a starch (might be rice, potatoes, or corn whatever the family wants)
maybe a dinner roll or biscuit if my carbs have been really low.
Desset~
I usually don't eat dessert, but if I do it's always some kind of fruit. I love a grilled peach topped with ginger snap crumble!! Can't wait til peaches are in season again. OOoo, or fresh blueberries with coolwhip, yum!!!0 -
