  • Officially out of the winner's circle, but still feeling good about my behavior these past few weeks. Those days that I didn't stay within my calorie budget I did not exceed it significantly. Keeping in control in all situations is the goal, and sometimes life happens, you just do the best you can. Stay accountable and…

  • Well I guess I will end up with two entries for today (Mar 19). I meant for this one to go in the Mar 18 discussion. It's been a long week.
  • Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes Did I stay within my calorie budget for the day? Yes Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes y'all have inspired me with the talk of plants and flowers! I think I will plan to do a few gardening projects this weekend. I have been overwhelmed the past couple years by…

I can't imagine what you have been through, and are still going through, @ginadomaszewicz, but I can tell that you are strong. Got off track…

Yes It seems like NSV are all I get these days, so I take them. Mostly I just feel good about myself and my commitment to a healthier body. I slept EXCELLENT last night, which I…

  • Exercise at least 20 minutes? Yes Stay within calorie budget? Yes Tracked everything I ate and drank? Yes Incidental/intentional activity - My home office is on the second floor, so I have been trying to get up and go downstairs more frequently as a physical and mental break from work. Work has been awful lately, but I…
  • Exercise at least 20 minutes? Yes Stay within calorie budget? Yes Tracked everything I ate and drank? Yes Mindfulness...Hubby wanted to treat me to something special for dinner on my birthday, so I chose to order sushi from a nice Japanese restaurant (take out) and stopped at a bakery for a treat. Luckily it's possible to…
  • Sorry, did I crash the book club?
  • Exercise - Yes Calorie Budget - Yes Tracked All - Yes I love today's meme, so true! Logging/planning meals in advance really help me meet my calorie budget. I had calories left for a glass of wine at the end of the day!
  • Thanks for sharing. I do try to eat healthy, but I'm not meeting the carb/protein/fat percentages that MFP shows. I'm actually a little surprised that I am not meeting the protein goal, because I feel like I focus my meals on protein. I like your approach, though, not trying to do everything at once and observing your…
  • Thank you!!!
  • I grew up foraging for Morels in Michigan, which are pretty easy to recognize, but last spring started to "dabble" in others that might not have a killer doppleganger (like oysters). Mostly I just love the hunt, and being out in the woods. I take more pictures of mushrooms than I actually pick. I belong to a FB page of…
  • Question: Is anyone tailoring their eating to meet the daily nutritional guidelines provided by MFP, or customized that part of MFP to a specific diet? If so, is it helping you reach your goals (whatever they may be)? I'm pretty new to MFP, so I'm focused on my calorie budget and exercise, which is probably good for now.…

YES Yesterday was the kickoff to my birthday week, so all things considered, I'm pretty proud of myself for logging everything I ate and drank, and exercising, even if I…
  • E/C/T = Yes First day back in the saddle after over 2 months. Was thrilled to be riding without knee pain post-surgery 2 months ago. Can’t remember the last time I rode with my left foot in the stirrup, but had both feet in the stirrups yesterday and never gave it a thought. Horses were definitely fired up from the long…

  • Hi! I'm just getting the hang of the MFP platform, so bear with me. I was pleased to find this group because my primary goal is to stick to controlled eating and daily exercise and hopefully make it part of my life forever. I'm not significantly overweight, but could use to shed a few pounds and be healthier, but mostly I…

  • Day 1 (started Mar 2): 20 minutes on the elliptical and 20 minute core/upper body workout. The hard part...yes! I stayed within my calorie budget for the day. I kept track of EVERYTHING I ate and drank? Hope to be able to keep this up. I just finished 7 weeks of PT following a partial knee replacement and am feeling better…
  • I haven't been to the gym in a year. Following partial knee replacement surgery in early January I was required to do PT. Seeing the progress with just basic exercises got me motivate and so I began adding core and upper body workouts to my leg workout, as well as cardio (walking or elliptical depending on weather). My…
