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.

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!

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.

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.
