Day 2 was great! calories 1390, 40 min of exercise( increased my walking by a block). I will not increase it today as my knee is sore again. I think I might have pushed to hard yesterday and dont want to injure it more.
Today lunch will be out.Im making a plan and WILL stick to it!!

Day 2 was a success for me. I did an hour of power yoga, drank my water and stayed on plan. I even had a couple of WW points left over because doing the yoga made me not hungry for dinner. (I mean my daily points, I rarely eat my activity points)

Wow, am I the first to check in on day 3?? I just finished my last glass of water  That makes me POP for today.
3 days down. Do that 3.33 more times, and we'll be 10% there! (Actually, I realize my math's off there, but I can't make my head work. I think I need algebra!)

Day 3 was great. Got all my water in and calories were right at 1400. We had to wait to pick up our mower and stopped at DQ. I allowed myself to get a small soft serve and counted each calorie. It was a nice treat and I didnt feel like it was a cheat. I normally would have gotten a blizzard. So I made a great choice.

Day 3 in the books POP - count it! The weekend is here and I for one normally am pretty challenged - this weekend food is planned and no company coming. Planning is a key to success for me!

Day three was great for me, and I even ate out for dinner. I had seared tuna and made the waitress tell me how many ounces it was. I substituted spinach for the rice and had a salad, dressing on the side. Yum.

Weekends are challenging for me, too, Carol. DH and I have 2 households and spend weekends together, and he loves to eat out. I know I CAN make good choices in restaurants and compensate for higher-calories restaurant meals by being even more careful at home. I can, and I gotta, coz I'll never get to 100 if I can't get past 4, 5, and 6!

I made it thru day 3!!
Protein 100g
No soda
AND stared down the 8 little hershey minis in my desk drawer that I had forgotten about and let them stay there! w00t!
Carbs are surprisingly low as I up my protein, and not restricting abnormally.
Another surprising thing after 3 days, I've been tinkling much more than usual (less carbs? drinking more?) and noticed the outline of my ankle is less puffy!! I hate my cankles!!
Hugs,
Ratkity

Think I can safely put day 4 in the books as POP--all I have to do is not eat again today I planned so that I could eat what I wanted at dinner and juuust stayed under my calorie count. Did my walking early. Wish I could do that every day.
