Exercise - Yes. 30 mins leisurely walk. Didn't sleep well so didn't get up on time for normal longer walk. Calories - yes Tracked - yes Pass Day so Far: 1 @RangerRickL you are right about public commitment. I haven't talked to anyone IRL about losing weight. I lost 20 lbs and no one has noticed. So IRL I don't have any…

Circle of Life - Elton John

I am myopic but I wear glasses. The first time I put on a pair of glasses I smiled "Wow, I didn't realize that I didn't see well!" I have always been overweight, and obese for a few years now. This resonated with me so much: "I might be fat, but I didn’t smoke, drink, consume fast food or red meat." Also I have optimal…

I actually started proper on January 2nd, exactly at 210.0 lbs. CW:? (next update Wednesday 9th) I weigh daily just to have the data. The numbers on the scale are, predictably, up and down. That drove me crazy this week. Maybe because I have been 210 for so long (since around December 20). Variations are to be expected.…

You can delete a wrong entry. On the app, go to Progress/Weight, Press and hold on the wrong entry and you'll get a pop-up message and you can chose "delete entry". Edited for clarity.

@peachpastries If you made your own croissants seriously you do deserve a pass day. How are you supposed to resist the buttery smell coming out of the oven? Hope you feel better tomorrow. I think most people - me at least--have had some days when we just couldn't stop eating. Do what you need to do to get your head back on…

Take My Breath Away - Berlin

Bump

Exercised?: Yes. 25 mins walk. I went to visit a friend and chose to walk instead of taking the car. Back to normal routine tomorrow. Calories?: Yes. Just. Tracked?: Yes Pass Day so far: 1 Thanks for the book recommendation @RangerRickL. I definitely need to make exercise part of my routine for health not just part of…

Black Velvet - Alannah Myles

When you entered your info, did you tell MFP you are trying to lose weight? How many lbs per week did you want to lose? Are you in a very active job? Yes the deficit is calculated into the number MFP gives you.

What she said

I was going to say exactly this. And flatbreads are the most "hypocrites" in my book.

I am a rock - Simon and Garfunkel

Take me as I am - Mary J Blige

January 5 Exercised?: No. Too tired. Calories?: No (this being the consequence of the above). And also needed a mental break. Tracked?: Yes Pass days so far: 1 I mentioned yesterday that I don't understand why @RangerRickL put CICO under controversial topics. I think today's question answers that. Does CICO work? Work for…

This week my average daily steps was 10070 steps /day. I started logging in September and in October I averaged 3000 steps per day.

Exercise - Yes. 4 mile walk. I set out for an easy 3 mile and ended up doing a moderate pace 4+. Calories - Yes. Under Tracked - Yes Pass day so far: 0 I don't think CICO is controversial at all. How you achieve it can be controversial, but the basic equation always works. Having said that, using MFP does help me have a…

Exercise - Yes. 55 min brisk walk. Calories - Yes. Under Tracked - Yes Pass day so far: 0 Exercise calories give me some leaway. Today for example I was offered mini chocolates and I didn't hesitate to have two pieces. I had prelogged my food without exercise calories so I knew I had a bit of a margin. Also if I am…

Unlike @yirara and @swirlybee I haven't (yet) detected any correlation between weight and cycle. 62 data points means only 2 cycles though. We'll see.

Awesome! Complete with Executive Summary.

Fascinating how close you are to forecast. Tracking on the app Monitor My Weight, I had perfect alignment just once. I think it was 50% lost in 50%of the time planned. Also I am on average 1.2 lbs lighter in the morning than the previous night's weight. I don't do evening weights often though and never record them. I…

Please do. It'll be great to continue this journey together!

I still wonder about that 6 lbs overnight drop. The variations are crazy!

That's The Way Love Goes - Janet Jackson

That makes sense. I'll make the calculations when I have more data. Thanks

Back for Good - Take That

Too true. In the long run a deficit will end up showing on the scale. I didn't seem to lose anything in December but at the end it was still 4 lbs down for the whole month.

How do you figure it out?

Exercise - Yes. Leslie Sansone Boosted Walk. 20 mins. Calories - Yes. I made poor food choices though. I drank some calories, which doesn't fill me much. Ended being very hungry. Oh well, you live and learn. I have prelogged tomorrow. Tracked - Yes Pass day so far: 0
