Thanks I think weighing/measuring every little thing will help. my calories burned are accurate as per my HRM (except on my walks because I walk at lunch and don't bring my HRM to work). I usually take 1 full day off each week.

I agree and I am working on trying to keep that lower. Thanks :)

Thanks everyone!! Much appreciated! :)

Great ideas-thank you!

Thanks! Yea I was thinking of doing greek yogurt at night too. I had been buying unsalted mixed nuts and had just forgotten it when I went grocery shopping. I do agree that more protein and veggies are needed at lunch and dinners...that is something I am going work on this week. :)

I like the Eight O'Clock Hazelnut coffee and will be investing in some pumpkin flavors soon.

Thanks for the suggestions! The only workout I do each day that isn't 100% accurate is my hour long walk at lunch because I dont wear my HRM. My evening workouts are using my Polar F7 with a chest strap. Like I said its between 500-600 calories (sometimes a little less). I roughly burn 260 calories on my hour long walks…

What are some go-to snacks or foods?

Awesome-thank you!!

It shouldn't....but this does make me feel better. I think brushing my teeth will help a LOT after I am done with my calories for the day!!

I have TRIED to understand macros and iifym but it seems so complicated....is it really that easy to follow? How do I figure out my body fat?

Thanks for the tips...boredom is definitely a reason I snack. Thats usually when my daughter goes to bed and we are left relaxing and watching tv (or sometimes I do workout after she goes to bed).

Very possible! I usually try to eat 6+oz of meat for dinner (give or take), but I think stepping back and having a real look at my eating will help me see what I am doing to myself and help me arrange my meals properly.

My intentions are to eat some of them back but after I get into my snacking rage I eat back more than my share.

Thanks! I use a HRM so my calories burned are accurate (although I walk an hour at lunch each day so those aren't because I dont bring the HRM to work). I have found that eating more during the day has helped, as I have upped the amount i am eating the past month but I get bored I guess at night and start eating the crap…

159 for now

Ok I opened it up...but honestly, my tracking has been great because I am embarrassed by my food choices.
