I think I had about a 300 cal deficit yesterday too. I haven't been to fitday this morning, yet. But I'm pretty sure that's what I recall from last night.

Morning.

Deficit yesterday of 634.

Good deficit from yesterday, great way to start out the week. Looking for another one today *fingers crossed*

A bit behind, but still here.
Friday: 471 :D
Saturday: 220 :)
Sunday: 249 :)
Monday: 342 :D
Didn't log all the cleaning I did on Sunday prior to my future in-laws coming over for dinner, but should be close enough. Scale is still holding pretty even. I'd like to think it's because I've been lifting and am gaining muscle, but it is just more likely I am not pulling off the deficits I need for a loss. I guess I am satisfied with that for now, I know that keeping going and trying is helping me maintain.

I averaged 1900 calories a day for last week and had about a 4000 calorie deficit. I'm hoping to see a loss on my weigh day on friday!

Great deficits Miles!

732 deficit yesterday. In fact had to eat a little more than I needed just so I would not come in too low on calories, haven't had one of THOSE days in forever.

blue - you know maintaining is not THAT bad, not a loss though that is for sure.

valerie - I'm keeping my fingers crossed for ya!

floridarusty - I hear ya, I HATE HATE HATE tracking all my food. But I can really tell a difference when I just wing it :(

Deficit of 550 yesterday:carrot:

Weighed in this morning - down 1,5 pounds :carrot: :D :carrot:

LynneA 08-24-2006 09:37 AM

No deficit for me yesterday but I treat myself to my favourite mexican restaurant last night so I wasn't expecting one.

Congrats on the loss Philosopher.

Stephanie Osborne 08-24-2006 03:53 PM

741 deficit for me, scale is still in the downward motion thank goodness

philosopher - yay on the 1.5 lbs...good work!

lynne - we all need a treat every once in a while :)

Philosopher 08-25-2006 05:27 AM

Celebrated too much yesterday - surplus. Heading for one today too:o

I had awesome plans last evening. I finished the packing I was doing, had a gorgeous salad in front of CSI and then did a nice round with some dumbells.
But then CSI MIami came on! I even went upstairs to watch in bed but during an ad I went back down stairs and made a peanutbutter and jam sandwich!

But I only had ONE! And I still have a deficit so .... not so bad but not the awesome plan I had either.

Philosopher? Can you just wedge in a little bit of walking or something. I can usually forgive myself faster if I quickly do something good.

LynneA 08-25-2006 08:59 AM

Deficit yesterday of 600.

I broke my funk with circuit training also this morning. I'd been concerned because I hadn't been getting my heart rate up into calorie burning zone whilst circuit training. I took a good look at my circuit this morning and tweaked it some. I added some dumbbell weights to some exercises and vowed to at least try and do the max of 20 reps per exercise (I had been slacking this I admit). Well, I kicked my own *** today. My heart rate monitor was telling me that I was well in the calorie burning zone pretty much the whole session. All I had to do was try harder. After 2 sets I was done.

I just hope that this newfound lightbulb/enthusiasm lasts throughout next week.
