    I wasn't sure what to do about eating the calories from your work out. What is the rule? Since I just got back on track Monday, I did not eat the calories from my work out.

    No Rules that I know of, we just want to details on what's working and why.(if you know) Good to have you on board.

    I exercise to increase my caloire budget, as I am starting at 1200. But with exercise I eating / drinking about 1500. Having a well earned glass of wine tonight.

    HAPPY HUMP DAY!!!!!!

    I hope everyone is off to a Great start this morning! I know I am feeling pretty stankin' good! Stepped on the scale... Down several pounds this morning! I try to not step on the scale often, but it never works. So I don't record it as a loss until I have had several days of decreasing #'s (I know, a bit looney:bigsmile: )

    I have my Micro final today and I am trying very very hard to not stress eat! I have removed all temptations that may sneak in this morning. I have already had a liter of water and working on my second! I will be in the bathroom a lot today :laugh:

    My tip for myself today (and anyone else who wants to follow along) "when a craving hits, drink 8 oz of water, wait 10 minutes and see if you still want it, if so, have it in moderation, if not, great!"

    Hope everyone enjoys their day!

    I am wanting to join! I am about 5'1" and weigh 185 :( I just started excersising and just got into mfp. I found that I was eating way too many calories and not excersising. This has been an eye opener for sure.

    I started Jillians 30 day Shred and I have been doing everyday for 6 days and have also been going for a jog/walk for a mile everyday as well. Some days I push my 3 year old in the jogging stroller and boy that is hard work!

    I like the idea of drinking 8 oz of water when you are having a craving and waiting 10 minutes to see if you still have the craving. I also thought I should get online and log into this site when I have a craving and read all of the success stories

    Any cool new non scale victories (NSV-took me a while to figure out that one)

    No NSV for me yet but thanks for explaining what NSV means! I had no clue what it stood for :)

    My youngest daughter has been sick the last couple of days so I haven`t much of chance to exercise... mostly just snuggle in bed! It was supposed to me my weigh-in day today but I decided to wait another week since I have been so inactive.
  • I could never figure out nsv either! Thank you! I've done my 30ds and walked with the dogs today. We walked for an hour yesterday!
