I know this sounds too simple.... but my goal is just to get a healthy kickstart to my newly designed, easy to follow diet plan to count calories (not points) and use the ipad Livestrong app to journal food.

Wow, we’re all getting so close to our goals!

Been MIA, sorry – still losing though. But I’m kind of waiting for the other shoe to drop, honestly.

I’ve cheated a bit diet-wise this weekend, but strategically when possible. Like a really big lunch from this Mexican place I love that was twice the calories I’d usually have, but then a salad for dinner, so my calories worked out ok.

I’m such a yo-yo dieter usually though I feel like I’m waiting for something to go wrong. I guess my attitude has been different this time? If I screw up I just adjust – Like when I was gone for a week for work, I just came back and dove right in.

I’m making it more about wanting to be able to hike more, and be more healthy, than I want to fit into X by Y date. Maybe that makes all the difference?

Still, I’m just…. nervous.

183stGB – sorry your legs still feel weird ☹ That happens to me sometimes a few days after a hard strength training day – everything seems really extra heavy. If it’s been days it’s a really god thing you’re checking with the doctor though!

Susan1975 – Aw that’s really rough being sick at that time of the month! Hope you’re feeling better soon!

Boatingmommy – Haha, love that you double-checked your weight with the cat – interesting how we’re less likely to believe good news, right? And congrats on doing so well going out to dinner – that’s sooooo hard to do!

Kelijpa – Congrats on the woosh!

Sum38 – Congrats on losing inches! That’s awesome!

They now have 7 kids in the house! So yes this is not my first time becoming a big sister lol YAY I'm making her a baby blanket! I'm so happy and proud!

I got really hungry yesterday, it was bad...I ate whatever I wanted, so it shows. Back on the wagon for me.

NSV's are the best! I have the opposite: I keep losing weight but I can't seem to squeeze into my smaller sizes.

Actually, that sounds like a plan that is sustainable and will work, well into maintenance.

Hi everyone! Glad that Monday is done. I didn't make it out for my weekly Monday night run this week and felt a bit glum about that - got caught up at work and by the time I got in it was too late to run and eat ... so chose to eat!! :-)

Damage from the weekend was only a pound. Would defs have been two if I was drinking. Going to work hard this week and see if I can get to goal... Need a buffer for next weekend (am going to holland to visit family -such a treat!)

Just had comedy moment with other half trying to get my heart rate monitor to work... He has been running up and down the stairs trying to get a reading. Boys and their toys lol!

Imabehot - congrats big sis !!

I83 - bad legs, no exercise, doctors, exams... Sounds like a tough week ahead!! Sure you'll be back on your crossfit soon tho. Fingers crossed...
