Aaaand the 1 lb crept back.
Bummer, I'm back up a pound. I guess just one could be water weight, muscle, whatever. It's a reminder to be really rigorous with counting. Sometimes I engage in a bit of wishful thinking - putting 1 oz of cheese, when I know perfectly well it was 2, not adding the calories from a tsp of oil for something sauteed. You…
I lost 3 lbs
I'm getting the month started with the exciting discovery that I lost 3 lbs using this app. Really pleased that eating healthy foods, tracking the occasional treat, and fitting in workouts, is seeing results. Slow and steady wins the race!

Tired, have a cold, overworked, but looking for the solution
Hello all. I could give up - I'm tired and have a cold, plus working long hours. BUT I'm staying focused on the solution. What's that? For now, it's a pack of sliced turkey and lowfat babybel from Trader Joe's. Low cal, high protein snack to keep me going in the madness. And black coffee. Teaching myself to drink it black…
Lost 1 lb!!!
Feeling good and happy because I got to the pool and stepped on the scale and lost 1 more lb! I know it's only 1, but the great thing is I've been exercising consistently and eating enough so I don't feel hungry or deprived. Sure I could eat less and burn myself out, but the scale is moving in the right direction, and I…
How's everybody doing?
Looks like I won't be 8-10 by Turkey day, but I'll be a happy 4-5. How's everybody else doing on their progress? Anything we can do to help each other?
Love the weekend
I love the weekend. We have a Greenmarket so Saturdays we have fresh fish and lots of vegetables. Tomorrow we're going to a movie, and I will have popcorn, but I'm counting those calories (fitness pal actually can tell you the popcorn calories at the chain you're at). I haven't been to the Y so I haven't weighed myself! I…
My update today
Last night I came really close to blowing my calorie count - I don't know about you guys, but end of day when I'm still just a little hungry I always go "Oh, I'll just have that one more...(slice of cheese, spoon of peanut butter). I'm trying to be mindful at 9, 10pm so I don't do those extra 100 calories. I had a pear and…
Monday Monday!
I was working and away from computer all weekend - I logged calories/exercise on app, but the "community" section isn't very robust there. It was a busy weekend, so I didn't get my usual Sunday night swim in, which is also when I weigh myself. I got sloppy end of day on calorie count - had a bit of the "f*&*& its" which is…
Late at night is a killer!
I read somewhere that mice who are medicated to not sleep get really fat simply because they have to fill that awake time with something. They have more time to eat, so they eat more! I say this because I keep late hours - my industry and social life kind of revolve around the evenings, so I'm typically home 8-9-10. And…
yesterday was awesome - keep up the momentum?
Just sharing I had a good day yesterday - I squeezed in my workout video, stayed under calorie count. At the end of the day when I thought about coconut ice cream, I had just pulled some roast broccoli out of the oven which was soooooo good I didn't want anything else. I still had my square of dark chocolate. How's…

How's everyone doing/ No to free frappuccino
How's everyone doing today? I'm gearing up for my favorite exercise class. It's called Barre a Terre and it's stretching and strengthening exercises on the floor. I have a problem in my foot, so a lot of physical exercise that stresses it is off-limits. I log the hour as 30 mins stretching/30 mins pilates. I also noticed I…
