This is going to be hard with busy fall weekends--I am definitely struggling. Just spent the weekend with my inlaws. MIL cooks 'old school'--pat of butter in everything before serving, meats/potatoes, etc., 3 squares a day. She's easily offended, so I don't say much and just eat what she makes. I am getting better at…

10/15 131.8 Today will focus on water intake, pre-logging food and 10k+ steps. Volunteering today which will keep be busy and out of the house/kitchen. I’ve packed a few high protein snacks, filled my water bottle. Will do a 4:30 HIIT workout with my daughter. Looking forward to homemade turkey soup for dinner! I made it…

Interesting day today. Opted for a protein shake for lunch. It was yummy and seemed to fill me up, but I really like to actually chew my food, so found myself ordering an 8 count grilled Chik Fil A nugget an hour and a half after the smoothie. Not a bad fast food choice, but am not sure I’d have wanted that if I had an…

10/17 131 Cookie and candy corn update—they won yesterday! The insidious cookie worked it’s way into my hand during This Is Us…worst possible time! I’m not too upset about the candy corns, though. I treated myself to 5 at a time throughout the day (total of 15/100 cal). Otherwise, I ate healthy and clocked 21K steps (lots…

Quick walk with Brewster (my favorite kid) and realized I had a NSV this morning. My daughter loves to bake and is GOOD at it. She made some delicious oatmeal choc chip cookies this weekend. I love sweets in the morning with my coffee--I figure the calories get burned off during the day. :D (nevermind the sugar high/crash,…

Looking forward to round 55! Slowly, painfully figuring out posting here. 10/05 131.4-Yay! Finally the workouts and tracking are paying off.

Did I miss a post about the next week?

New to posting and cannot figure out how to (1) pull up my original post and (2) edit that directly, so I am cutting/pasting into new comments. Not digging this learning curve!

Definitely need to work on logging my meals, reviewing the day and make adjustments and avoid eating the calories I burn working out. I’m also going to try pre-logging my meals. I think this will help me stay on track.

We plan dinners for the week, but haven't done the same for lunches. Breakfasts are pretty consistent (eggs, fruit, yogurt, etc.), so rather concentrate efforts on lunches and dinners. Prepping definitely does make a difference! Part of the process is uploading recipes to MFP for easier tracking.

I'll give this a go! Goal is to shed a few lbs before company visits, a trip to Europe and the holidays--all of which will present food and beverage temptations! MFPSW (2011) 128 CW 134 GW 125
