Hi-
An up & down summer. Can't seem to keep my motivation when trips, meals out, clebrations come up. I know that I need to plan for these meals but somehow doesn't happen .
Will try to be better about logging in here.
Basically have been maintaining not meeting my goal , that's for sure.
Today- fruit, yogurt, skim milk shake for breakfast, planning a 1/2 turkey sand for lunch, dinner will be chicken not sure how I'll prepare.
Goals for today- walk, vegetables & fruit for snacks
Have a super day!
Hi-
Back from a little get away in Boston. It had been years since I had been there & so much fun to see the sights. Walked a lot! 4-5 miles each day. Had a few drinks & ate desserts so back on track today.
Today- B- sorry can't remember the name but it's a 100 calorie muffin top, Lunch- 1 sl bread with small portion of chicken salad, snacks- handful of nuts, yogurt, blueberries Dinner- swordsfish, couscous salad with veggies, tomato & mozz, glass of wine, fruit crisp
Exercise today- 9 holes of golf with pullcart.
Hi-
I've been away for the last few days . In Boston and out and about seeing the sights. Not really on track but doing alot of walking. Over 4 miles each day. Hoping it all balances out. Back in a couple of days.
Hi-
Today- B- wh toast w/ smart balance & jam, L- 1/2 turkey sand w 1 sl bacon & 2 t Mayo, cherries, Afternoon snacks- pistachios, cracker w p.b, small amount of pretzels, Dinner planned - chicken , gr beans, squash gl of wine
Exercise- walked 9 holes of golf, short walk, gardening
Too many snacks!! I should try drinking more water . I have lots of zucchini ,summer squash & green beans from my garden. I don't think I'll have a vegetable garden again- there's only so much that 2 people can eat. And try giving away zucchini! I can give extra to the local food pantry though so there should be no waste.
So from the time I signed back in to DD I've lost 2 1/2 lb but I hardly count the first 2 lbs. The 1/2 lb I'll count! So progress.
Also they can be stuffed--each half. Though that's a little more involved. And if you wanted you could blanch and freeze some.
Enjoy your weekend!
Hi-
having a decent week. not seeing a whole lot of progress but that's okay. For me just eating in control is a big step.
Today- B- cereal w/ blueberries, L- 1/2 turkey sand. peach Snack- some pistachios, yogurt Dinner will be a salad with turkey & various veggies & some cheese with a dinner roll I'm sure the day will end with another snack- maybe the 100 cal frozen lemon bar.
Exercise- 3 1/3 mile walk. Well that's what my phone app read. Also a few stretching /yoga exercises.
Not setting any lofty goals yet. Just hoping for 1 lb a week for now. I would be happy with that.
Good catching up with your posts.
Hi -

Hi-
It's good to be back. I'm logging my calories on my Lose It app & that works pretty well for me. I'm aiming at around 1400 -1500 caloires perday. I know I should also watch my carbs but for now just calories & heaalthy eating. Yesterday was around 1500 caloires & did pretty well with the exception of the Peppermint Patty that my husband brought home . Couldn't resist. Didn't get in any real exercise yesterday but did some gardening & cleaning. Today- Kashi cereal w/ 2% milk. turkey wrap sandwich, chobani yogurt. Dinner will be a shrimp dish Exercise today- 9 holes of golf.
A nice summer day here with rain predicted late today which is okay as I need to do some reading & get some ironing done. ( I hate ironing!)
Have a great day!
Hi - after a very long break,
I've been just trying to maintain without really counting calories and for the most part it has been okay. Now ready to resume and try to lose some weight.
It's been a good summer. Busy with gardening, some travel, getting together with family and friends.
As yesterday I had some extra caloires, today needs to be a lighter meal day. Planning a salad with turkey for lunch , dinner with some vegetables and chicken. Snacks- apple and peach
Exercise today will be weather related- hoping for a dry afternoon & a walk.
Looking forward to reconnecting with DD friends.
Hi-
I feel like I've said this many times here on DD, but I am on a good track & now down 3 lbs & continuing 30 min of aerobics for 6 out of the last 7 days. I tried reducing my carbs a bit & doing more aerobics on a more consistent basis. Going to watch my Easter meals. Since I'm cooking that should be manageable. So down 3 with 7 to go on this goal.
Happy Passover , Happy Easter & Happy Spring
