I think a little sodium bump, but also not getting that extra cardio I was getting walking the dog at night since the time change. Have to work on that.
Good Morning - 219.6 new low - Just shaking my head and happy but I may need to reminded if/when I hit a snag. -
Welcome here qtkitty. I replied on another thread of yours.
Last night wound up crazy so I need to get today planned soon but I overslept. Normally I beat the alarm but today my fitbit had been reset due to some issues communicating with the phone and it wiped out the alarm. I was on tech support with them and spending a bunch of time with a video we need to send to tech support at instant pot. I guess I am going to need a new phone, too. Yikes I got this one in early 2014. I think that is a long time for a phone.
GOAL: Calories -1170, protein-58, net carbs-77, fat-66, Omega 6:3-3.4, Walk 10,000 steps, 12 floors
ACTUAL: Calories -1093, protein-62, net carbs-79, fat-55, Omega 6:3-3.4, Walk 11,807 steps, 27 floors

Last night I added on: Full Body Stretch (standing)
This Morning: Oxycise in the Office 2
Woke with more swelling. I have been waking early which is usually a sign of hormones. Yesterday, I felt really moody and felt like my little world was coming to an end. It really looks like the angioedema gets triggered with hormones. I am not regular in the bathroom dept. either. I think my Endo apt is Dec 22, so I have another month of this nonsense.
Calories for yesterday: 1540 +
Weigh In: 185.2
Up: .4
Have a blessed day!
Copied from Crosswalk Devotions for Dieters
November 14
Hebrews 12:2
Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
Mary took comfort from the gospels. Whenever she felt sorry for herself, she looked at the Bible. She couldn't believe all that Jesus had done and suffered. He had so much, and He emptied Himself to give to others. In the end, He received eternal glory. What a wonderful lesson. Dieting is a temporary and comparatively minor sacrifice, compared with Christs sacrifice. And yet, as Christ triumphed over His situation, so shall we triumph over ours. Christ is our example in all things. The Author and Finisher of our faith has shown us the way to victory, and we share in His joy when we triumph in our own lives.
Today's thought: What I suffer today is worth the victory tomorrow!
Good morning gals
WO--overslept geez
WI down just a bit from my all time high of last year 164.8
DH and I have decided no more eating out I think this is where my problem lies, hidden calories even if I thought I was making good choices so we will go a few weeks of eating only non processed, home cooked food.
good morning! New to this thread but joining since I need accountability. I'll edit through the day so I don't spam the thread with new stuff.
breakfast:
homemade maple brown sugar oatmeal
lunch:
grilled cheese and tomato sandwich, grapes, 1/2 poptart
snack: 3 dates
dinner: pasta with lots of veggies, carrot cake (argh, this what happens when my mom volunteer bakes and brings some home D: )
workout: 30ish minutes of conditioning and stretching
Weigh-in this morning at 150 even. Definitely up after some horrendous eating choices this weekend + not being able to move around much due to an injured hip.

Fun note. I have not put a lot of stock in calorie calculators but I used my average daily deficit since I started and use the 3500 calorie deficit = 1 lb of loss to predict a 47lb weight loss since I started at the end of July. I have a 45 lb loss as of now. That is pretty close. And I don't care what anyone says but those exercise calories DO count.
Of course the flip side is if I graph my defecits from cron o meter the trend line clearly shows the deficit is getting less and less which makes sense. The lighter you are the less energy you take to move. I cannot run. I can walk faster. I cannot eat less and ensure adequate nutrition. No wonder this stuff is so hard! it looks like one brisk mile burns about 200 calories at current weight so time to up the ante and add enough exercise to maintain a 1400 calorie a day deficit. This is turning into a a work project.

Diana sorry you’re having the swelling, I had a little sadness and a couple warm flashes, not much else going on there, it’s been a few months. I just looked at your lunch and remembered I bought some spreadable cheese at Aldi, like laughing cow, but their brand. I think I’ll take that with my lunch tomorrow. Can’t believe I forgot about it
GrannyNancy congrats on your continued success, have you heard that saying “working it like it’s my job”? That’s you!
Nancy that’s great your DH supports you with not eating out for awhile. We used to eat out more, but have been enjoying cooking our own treats on the weekend. It’s always good to try different things and see what works for you.
Ciecie you’re doing great!
Welcome Princessroja I don’t think I have the strength to only eat half a pop tart
