Hi everyone. I worked out at curves today and had a 1263 deficit. It's amazing how much better I do on my days off work! When I'm tired from working I just eat so much more!
Though I am a calorie counter, I haven't posted here before. What I notice is that when I am out and about, my excercise and energy is sky high but my diet is TERRIBLE. When i am at home, I eat evenly and well but I don't move much. HAHAHA!
PC died at work yesterday so did not get around to posting here, must have forgotten about it in the evening. Anyways, Sunday a 0 deficit day anyways, just went a *little* overboard with some brownies that otherwise would have been a deficit.
Yesterday much better, deficit of 812. Ate okay (probably not enough, but there just wasn't much to eat so I gave up after some couscous and peas for dinner). I stole a few of my fiance's toblerone's (chocolate) but still stayed under, and was even amazed to see Fitday had toblerone! Was nice to have a deficit, AND get to log my chocolate the *right* way.
Morning all! Well I would have had a splendid 1000 deficit yesterday but we went to eat dinner at my fave mexican restaurant last night and it was buffet night so, oops.
Anyway. I took my first spinning class this morning and what fun that was. 60 minutes of mad pedelling on a bicycle seat that was about as comfy as sitting on razorblades. I'm going again on Tuesday but not before I swing by my nearest Target and pick up a gel padded cover for the seat.
Lynne - wow, nice on the cycling! Can't always have a good food day, but I'm sure the exercise feels great.
Susan - hope it doesn't go so bad! And at least you got *most* of the windows
Deficit of 580 for me yesterday. Cupboards are getting bare again, had pancakes and eggs for dinner and haven't had real veggies in a few days now, who woulda thought I would miss them? Our DDR (Dance-Dance-Revolution) for PS2 arrived yesterday. We've had it on our PCs before, but now both my fiancee and I could both dance to the same song at the same time. Also, the version we got had "work-out" mode which was kinda neat, you could set a goal for burning calories and just keep dancing until you met it. Both of us worked up quite the sweat with that one, so feeling pretty good today. Now just got to keep it up and hope he keeps it up too.
Susan-get to work and finish those windows...lol you sound like me...I've been painting my kitchen cabinets fo over a year now and still not finished
deficit for yesterday was 616...Had a good day till that night when my friend talked me into eating ice cream ...bad me...and it really wasn't that good...I know better next time...but at least I still had a deficit
Deficit yesterday of 800 which I'm happy with. I know what you mean about painting Donna, I've got to finish our spare room Saturday, we put the undercoat on last week.
Circuit training at the gym this morning and I felt every single lunge after yesterday's spinning class. My muscles just at the side of my hips/towards the back of my butt are sore today!
T.G.I.F although my weekend is going to be super busy .
Though I am a calorie counter, I haven't posted here before.
I haven't posted here yet, either. I just decided to give calorie counting a bigger priority after starting to use fitday regularly. And after realizing that the seven-layer bar I ate today had as many calories as my bowl of vegetarian chili! Eeek!

I do the same thing! I wonder if it's psychological.
Hi ALL!! It's been sooooo long since I've posted. I have been so very busy with a P/T summer job. I am exhausted every nite when I get home. Why is it that when you work so hard and are so tired all you want to do is eat and fahgetabout the exercise!! I am working in a garden center/pet store that is very busy. Thank God it's only 3 days a week!! I did a Leslie Sansone mile the other day. I can't believe in a month's time how out of shape I got-even though I'm on the run for 8 hrs a day! I have made a promise to myself to get back on track and get back to my WW meeting this week and get my butt back into the habit of exercising every day. I have a hard time in the AM anymore doing the exercises cuz I have to take DH to work at 7AM (15 minutes away) and then turn around and come back home and go to work at 9 AM. We only have one vehicle and one motorcycle. DH loves to drive the bike to work but this summer has been totally rainy here almost everyday we have some sort of showers or rain!!! AGGGGHHHH!!! It is very frustrating. Can't exercise in AM if I have to take DH to work. Guess I'd better stop feeling sorry for meself and get back at it and stop goofing off! I've gained 3 pounds in a month by not exercising and not counting calories on fitday. No one to blame but ME!!! Well take care all. Hope to be back more often. You guys are such an inspiration to me!!!! Take care. Keepin' the faith...Dawn
Morning everyone!
Hi Dawn! That part time job is what we call a life change and yes it certainly has an effect on your energy levels, diet etc. Hang in! Three pounds is a very fixable amount!
My niece made a lovely bride yesterday, her fellow made a sweet cute groom and the ladies of their church made an awesome lunch Oh well! We danced a bit and I'm off to work so ... stuff happens, I'll get back to basics soon.
