I ended yesterday with a deficit of 711....this is the week that my bet with my friend starts for going to the gym 3 times a week or we have to pay the other one $5 for every day that we miss...I missed yesterday but going to try to get there today..

Calorie COunting has really opened my eyes. I exercise often and very hard. I had been plateaued for some time and could not figure out why. Then I found calorie counting. Although I am new at it, it has opened my eyes as to just how many calories are in a "bad day" for me. Yesterday for example I was almost 1100 over! In the past I would have considered this an off day but not known how astronomically high the calories I took in were. So here is to cycling around some of these calories for the rest of the week to get that average down.

yep im doing good as well im trying to exercise but it' too freaking hot yesterday here it got up too 108 so its been hard trying to get out there to walk/run but i lost 3 1/2 lbs last week

Deficit of 590 yesterday. Feeling pretty good about that, trying to keep my deficits over 500 a day but it is tricky given my recent focus on weight lifting instead of cardio as well as the food part, heh heh. Time will tell!

Hi everyone!

I have been having a rough time of it recently. Sunday I had 2600 calories, Monday I had 1900 calories and today I had 2097 calories. I just can't see to keep that number down with my schedule the way it is now.

At this point I'm pretty much just maintaining my weight.. or possibly even gaining. I weighed in at 196 today. I'm just hoping that was a fluke and I'll be back at 192 or less on my official weigh day Friday.

I hope everyone is well and staying cool!

deficit yesterday was 1083...I made it to the gym for 1 hour weights and 15 mins bike..

I'm off to have a look at this fitday thingy!!!

I'll be back once I've worked out how to work out my deficits :D

So yesterday more than made up for my bad day on Monday. I am at about a 647 defecit for the week. Just need to keep it up.

Valerie, Donna & Stephie - nice deficits!

Deficit of 619 for me yesterday, once again feeling pretty good about that. Ate a lot of veggies for dinner last couple nights and it filled me enough I wasn't very high in calories. Of course, I didn't do my upper body weights like I was supposed to, have been very worn out from so much school and work lately, just 2 & 1/2 more weeks of it and I'll have some more time. Legs still hurt from lower body weights on Sunday so that must have been a good work-out! Take care, ladies.

Deficit today (Wednesday): 461. Where is everyone? Still tallying up the day? :D Hump-day's over now!

I was sound asleep when you were posting Miles :) But this morning I not only have a good deficit for yesterday to announce (about 1000 cals) I've also lost a pound. Oh that yard work!

susan-congrats on the 1lb loss...and the great deficit.

as for me I had a deficit yesterday of 698...planing on going to the gym again tonight...wish me luck that I can get off work on time to go..

Have a great low calorie / high deficit day

Had about a 366 deficit for yesterday which brings me to about 1013 for the week. I count my weeks from Sun to Monday so I still have some work to put in.

Valerie hang in there it is trial and error i've done bad for days and then great on others i find keeping a food journal helps me alot im not into the fit day im more of a writting it down kinda gal but which ever works for you maybe try both then you know where your high cal's are coming from and try to replace that item for a low cal one ,,, im sure you know all this..LOL im just throwing my 2 cents in

yesterdays deficit was 560...I didn't make it to the gym either...I have 3 days left now to make it 2 more days...kinda pushing it....where has the week gone....time is just flying by..
