http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/summer_tulip Morning. Decided to adjust my calories for just 0.5lb of loss and won't be tracking exercise burns after all. I read a lot of comments on how they can be inaccurate and I figured I might as well just work out as hard as I can whenever I can and try to keep my calories…

Well we have a cool little crowd up in diet and weight loss... you can find it if you wanna chime in :) Just a thread but ppl seem to like it! It's called The Chill Accountability Crowd

Oh yum! I feel ya, @bodwomon :) I like to mix it up and eat different things too. Nothing wrong with that :)

@bodwomon hello and welcome! You're in good company! Also, what are crabsticks? They sound delicious. :)

@MommaGem2017 ...it... it was ... beautiful :'( :D :D :D Lol, seriously it was so good it brought a single tear. And how was the asparagus risotto?! I think I've noticed that before. Oh you gotta try the mashed cauliflower!! And I'm sure the cauliflower pizza will make its way to you soon. (Or rather, I hope!)

@sammierader Hey there! Just do your best and don't worry about being perfect. You're among friendly folk, here. :blush:

http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/summer_tulip Kinda ate all the things today. Not too bad, but I really wanna get to a point where my "eat more food" days are biweekly, not twice a week! So here's hoping my next higher-calorie day isn't till, oh say, August 3rd or later.

@timtam163 I like your style! Welcome! @MommaGem2017 I hope the evening treats you well and you feel refreshed and revitalized. We all need some R&R now and then! @OliveGirl128 get it!! Yeah we are open to pretty much all cool folks who wanna participate, show off their dairy, and feel connected :) @JeepHair77 it's really…

Hey folks! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/summer_tulip Been a little busy between work and housekeeping and errands! @finesseyourgoals we see you! Welcome! @Allibaba cute toes! And nice work!! @Mizzy58 where did you Doctor buy that scale and how can I get one!? Lol. @AshEvelynn and @mrsnattybulking yeah just post…

@AshEvelynn hi there :smiley: yes you did it right. Nice food journal! I am impressed you had only a splash of chocolate soy milk. I'd have chugged it!!! Delicious. Welcome aboard.

Just went through the thread and clicked through everyone's diary URLs. Looks like everyone's doing quite well! And @mrsnattybulking your diary meal names are hilarious and clever. :D

@halmsafit Hello! You sound like you've got a good mindset. I understand the body fat goal, I'm in a similar boat. Last I checked I was 35.6%!!! Once upon a time I was 17%, but that was years ago. I wanna get down to something that looks and feels right, dunno what exactly that would be but my guess is 20% or maybe a bit…

@Mizzy58 oooh I wanna get a Fitbit! I had an Up2, but it died in less than 6 months. Keep us posted on how you're doing with it! Sounds like it could be my next investment. :)

@Allibaba dinner issues! Exactly!! It's nighttime that I do the most eating most of the time. Hello and welcome and good luck with bootcamp. :) @DharmainHeels oh cool! You know, @greoryg is doing Keto too. Welcome! @tabletop_joe hello! Always chill over here. @MegaMooseEsq welcome! You're in good company. Mixed successes…

@mrsnattybulking hello and welcome! I've had plenty of days like that myself, so I feel ya. Fresh start! Hope you like it here. :) :) @MommaGem2017 you go, girl. You go! @daniellemichellecowger hello and wow! Great success! Nice to meet ya!

Oh, whoops I forgot to do this part: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/Summer_Tulip Haha.

@ohnonotcrystal you're CRUSHING IT!!! Nice work! @greoryg Hello! Keto is legit, I've tried it before and felt great! Welcome. @Sharonl71 I have a major sweet tooth as well. Have you ever tried Halo Top ice cream?! So good. Welcome! @JeepHair77 no worries and no pressure! Log best you can and enjoy the ride. And enjoy your…

Nicely done! I am finishing today better than yesterday but still missed the mark. Tomorrow is slightly pre-planned and prepped so hopefully that'll help.

Oh and @Mizzy58 ...gummy bears are made of happiness and spring rainbows, so they're totally worth it.

@MommaGem2017 once again, I relate! Lol @KatieTee83 welcome! Food has always been my downfall as well. Just doing our best here. No need for perfect eating to eat healthy. You got this. @Mizzy58 welcome aboard! and thank you for the encouragement, though it's actually @ohnonotcrystal who is almost on vacation. And I hope…

@MommaGem2017 Hi and welcome! :) (I have a desk job also. I relate.)

That sounds like a great plan! I figured you meant to say that you're leaving on July 22, not June. Very nicely thought out! I have a small trip coming up in September and I'm trying to wrap my head around what I'm gonna do. Probably just do the best I can while I'm out there. It's a family wedding event so there's…

Morning! http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/Summer_Tulip Yesterday I kinda overdid it... gotta do better! I was thinking of setting my goal lower since I always overeat, but then i figured just work at staying close to the original daily goal.

Welcome aboard, panda! The thread is gaining momentum!

Haha. I wouldn't have usually tracked it, but I figured since ppl might be looking I'd try to include everything ("try" being the key word). :)

Awesome! Welcome aboard. Your diary is lovely! :)

OK its up for those of you still interested. The name of the post is The Chill Accountability Crowd. :) http://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussion/10578058/the-chill-accountability-crowd#latest

I'll start. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/Summer_Tulip Introducing myself here with my little plan. I just wanna stay reasonably close to my overall daily calorie goal on a consistent basis. I used MFP to come up with a calorie goal to lose at a rate of 1lb/week. Not hung up on macros. (To each their own.) I like…
