I hope I make it I'm trying to wait and have a late breakfast hoping that might work if I eat lunch and breakfast close together. |
Calorie totals up, way up. -_-
Yesterday I ate about 1681 and today I'm at about 1300. I'm not counting properly so I'm not even sure about those figures but I know I'm eating terribly. New start tomorrow, gotta get it right! I feel horribly bloated today though, my period is thisclose to starting and it's killing me. >.< |

b: 425 Don't feel like logging it all. Total for the day is about 1500 and I hope I'm done eating. Fatigue is crawling around me; wish it was 10pm I'd just go to bed. Have a good weekend all! |

I hope it's okay that I join you girls ! Just started about 5 days ago. Been good and on track besides inability to exersize (raining like crazy. going tomorrow !)
Today was kind of a hard day, it seems like I just can't get full which was weird because I'd been doing so well. I didn't do bad, at least.. Breakfast: 1 1/2 cup honey nut Scooters (cherrio knock off), 1/2 cup skim milk Snack: Fiberone 90 calorie chocolate & PB granola bar Lunch: 6" Subway Club + 1 serving Campbells Homesryle chicken noodle soup Dinner: Rest of sub, 6" club but gave about half the bread and all the roast beef to fiancé. 1 serving Progresso Light chicken noodle. 2nd dinner / snack: 2 pieces of Sarahlee 45 calories delight wheat bread, 4oz tuna w/ half teaspoon miracle whip, 1/2 teapoon honey mustard, chopped up pickle. WW string cheese & 6 pieces (1 serving) mesquite deli turkey. Totals; 1318 calories 180 carbs 20g fat 90g protien Carbs were a bit higher than I've been due to all the bread. |
b: toast with cheese: 220
- 150 grms of chicken with 1 cup edamame soy beans: 330 - chocolate muffins ( i am never making these again they are the devil!!) 300 pizza - 630 total: 1480 praying for 170 tomorrow but I doubt it :( |
here I am...
well, anyone miss me;)
I have totally been off course....really don't want to see the damage when I get home. 3/16-3/20 we had total of 3 families come and pick up their babies they adopted, of course we have to take them out, and sometimes, well ALOT of times being overseas they still want American food. So we had lots of hamburgers :( our church's 30th anniversary was the 18th and can we just say Baptist potluck is the same anywhere in the world...way too much food!! Top all that off with migraine attack after the stress of everything and everyone went home. AND my knees have been killing me. I think doing 30DS and then walking 2miles just exhuasted my knees. One is feeling better the other is ok now I think. NOW Thursday we traveled 6hrs for a wedding and in Taiwan weddings are 13 course meals!! but alot of seafood which I don't eat, so that wasn't too bad. But we are staying with family and go back home on Monday. So, next week I have to get better into a routine. I tried Jillian Michael's Yoga dvd only to find that I am not a pretzel....totally not flexible!!! goodness!!! But I don't know what to do.....just do walking and add my own strength routine or walking and yoga. So ladies.....I gotta get back on the wagon and work at this again.....totally discouraged by all the events messing things up. |
b/l: coffee, kashi cereal, milk, strawberries: 450
I'm ready to pull my hair out. Nothing I'm doing is working the scale simply will not budge. Maybe I should just bag counting anything this weekend, just eat and get back on track Monday. That's where I'm headed. Damn it. |
Blah, yesterday was bad...
I started out okay. I had some fruit...but that lead to pasta...twice, lunch and dinner, and not a small amount...and later that night I had some Bailey's Irish Cream which was soooo good but soooo not what I needed at that point. :lol: I don't think working out helped a single bit after that...but today I'm doing well, had some doughnuts because that's all I had access to but my calorie intake is fine for the time of day. I was on my feet lifting heavy stuff for 4 hours and I might still work out tonight if I can so yaya! Yesterday's calorie count was probably hitting on like 3000...I blame the drinks! |
This week had been a little higher calorie wise for me, plus I hadn't exercised for a few days due to my surgery. Nothing outrageous, though. Overall I think I've done pretty well.
Breakfast: Muffin=320 Snack: Reduced fat Ritz crackers w/ cheese=130 Lunch: Cheese sandwich w/ pickles and mustard, slice of lemon cake=360 Supper: Cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, light mayo on flatbread, banana=700 Total: 1510 Exercise: Turbo Jam Cardio Party 3 (50 min) - finally back to exercising & it feels good! |
Today was GREAT! I resisted almost having some fried fish (long johns) shoved in my mouth, I went to the movies armed with my OWN popcorn & didn't even eat it (too busy watching the movie to sneak it out!), and I still have 50-150 calories to eat and I'm not hungry. I even treated myself to a glass of milk & coffee cake to bring my calories up. I'm about to do my strength training, will probably have a sugar free Popsicle after. To top it off I weighed in 6lbs lighter than when I started this. Great day. :)

170 today!! lost one pound over two weeks but it makes sense due to my crazy binge...glad I'm moving back down :D
took today off from counting calories. My goal for next Mon - Friday is to go no higher than 1250, I'm curious if there will be a larger difference on the scale. Just a mini experiment. |
I decided to go for a 750-calorie deficit instead of 500 (and to forgive myself if I only do 500 some days), because I think sometimes I'm eating more calories just because I can.
I'm keeping an eye on the Fitbit website, which tells me how many calories I can eat (according to how active I've been). Most days I earn a pretty good surplus. I need to be less eager to eat those calories back in chocolate! Right now it says I can only have 591 more calories (out of 1303). I'm going to build my allowance up to at least 2,000, and try to eat only 1,750 total. The weather here is beautiful -- it's almost a sin to be indoors today! Scalewise, I'm doing fine. Still in the low 130s. (125 is my goal, and no lower). Two people told me today that if I lost any more weight, the wind would blow me away. (I'm a long way from that, but it was nice to hear anyway. I really am close to the goal that I would've thought was impossible a year ago!) |

Hello all. I just joined yesterday and I am definately a calorie counter. I need some accoutability. I'm on Spring Break this week, so sticking to a healthy lifestyle is easy, but I'm worried about next week when I return to work. You guys do look great. Hopefully, I can get back into shape within the next 6 months and start feeling good about myself again.
3/25: 1640 3/26: 1560 I can do this!!! |
:welcome2: Hillary!!

summerlove -- thanks for the encouragement. It's been all of March and the damn scale is just stuck. <sigh> I just keep plugging away.
------------------ b: coffee, kashi, banana, milk - 400 l: leftover baked bolognese (it is so good . . wish I was a lousy cook sometimes lol) - 400 Only got 4 hrs sleep last night and am totally feeling it today. Hope that doesn't weaken my resolve and I end up eating more than I should. I could seriously do some damage right now. No clue on what to make for dinner tonight. Story of my life! :lol: I took an hour and a half nap this afternoon. omg, other than when I'm sick I've never done this. The dogs had better not pull the same nonsense tonight that they did last night. s: greek yogurt and the last 2 slices of leftover london broil - 250 s: cup of coffee and one cookie - 100 d: don't know yet . . . maybe a lean cuisine or just some cheese and crackers. Will likely end up with a total of 1500-1600. I just can't seem to stick to that 1300-1400 cal range for some reason. Literally get too hungry. |

Sunday was good, with about an 800 calorie deficit.
Monday was not good. I ate about 50 more calories than I burned. Just too busy with sedentary activities, and not enough walking opportunities. Today has been better so far. Sedentary, but I packed my lunch, so I wasn't stuck eating just whatever was handy. I wish I didn't have so much work that involves sitting still! I'm still going for a 750 calorie deficit every day that I can... |
Quote:
I decided to let them all fend for themselves. Plenty of leftover dinner from last night sitting in there. |
3 days in! I'm feeling great!
3/27: 1560 In the past, I always cut my calories so low, that it was not long lasting or even possible. I'm sticking between 1500 to 1600 calories per day and I feel I can stick to this. |
well, had a post...
but it was on my iphone and then lost it.
I am here!!!;) man, I haven't logged in to myfitnesspal for a week, so I guess that is how long I have been not paying attention!!! I have walked though and am up to walking 3.5k (a bit over 2miles?) but stopped the 30DS for my knees sake!!! Well, as of this morning I am down to 208.2lbs!!!LOL!! Though Saturday I must have ate something not too good and got a slight case (if there is such a thing) of food poisoning....:( I don't think there is a smilie for that issue, the ups and ends of it all was not good!! then Sunday I basically was in bed all day and had only sprite and white bread WHEN I could. Monday,had a little bit of stuff here and there, but wow!! Tuesday was better but didn't have much of an appetite then either. We were out of town at a relatives wedding and all this hit me AFTER the wedding thankfully! We came home Tuesday. So, it will be nice if I can keep that 5lbs off!!LOL!! maybe I needed that fast (K9....fasting looks good and useful now!) every so often. Just hoping that kick jumps something. BUT I did get some protein shakes mix, which I started today for breakfast (being sick I went two days without my breakfast and out of town I think 4 days without my bad 640calorie breakfast! so maybe it was good for me!).
