Yeah, its cool. I'm on target and ahead of schedule. I was shooting for 195 by June 1. Assuming I stay on track, I should make that my April.
RM's & RD's Accntblty Thrd Jan. 28th - Feb. 3rd.
New week!! Hopefully, I will remember to weigh in on Tuesday. I hope I actually lost for pete's sake.<br><br>
Hey JB- I missed the Tortilla Soup recipe. Can you send me a link? I would love to have it. All it does is rain here in California and soup sounds good.<br><br>
Okay, everyone we have almost been doing this for a month. Thanks for the inspiration.<br><br>
Happy Running!

I weighed myself and I'm the same....but I don't think it's right since this morning I looked 5 months pregnant from being so bloated...so I'm going to try and weigh in again tomorrow. I'm having stomach "issues" today so it might read lower from that too. Who knows..<br><br>
Andi- Good job!!<br><br>
Johnny congrats!!!! That must feel great. Keep in mind you might have more muscle on yourself too, so you're body fat is even lower.<br><br>
Lee- I agree with Nicole- sometimes you have to eat more to lose. I had the same problem when I was on weight watchers.<br><br>
Way to go Chosha!!!<br><br>
Kristin- congrats!<br><br>
Gaela- you're not supposed to lose weight after eating three cakes <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">

Hey guys,<br><br>
I was down 1.5 today. Whew!! It was nice to see the scale move in the down position!!!<br><br>
Andi you are doing so well!! Great job.<br><br>
Way To Go JB- Is 200 your goal or do you want to go below that?<br><br>
Nicole - Brownies are a killer!! I wanted to make choco chip cookies yesterday but knew that I would not only eat all the ones I made but the dough too!! Gotta keep temptation at bay. It's a new week you will get back on track!<br><br>
Cho: Great job lady!!! You are doing awesome despite DH's food tempations!! LOL. Way to stay on track.<br><br>
Lee: I would agree with Andi maybe the Dunkin's are hindering your loss. Try going to all black for coffee and then your "treats" once a week. IDK, it's hard.<br><br>
Batmomm: 1/2 pound is easy to get rid of! I bet after your run tonight it will be gone. No worries.<br><br>
Runrmommy: A loss is a loss. Great job!<br><br>
Jen: I would weigh again tomorrow or even Thursday to see if there is a difference. Are you drinking enough water?? That might help move things along.<br><br>
Alemma: How come you are in Delaware? It's hard when you are not in your groove and schedule hopefully you will get back on track real soon.<br><br>
Okay, I have to confess, I can't get onboard with Dailyplate. What am I doing wrong? For me, navigating the site was pretty labor intensive. Am I doing something wrong? Did anyone sign up for the gold membership?<br><br>
Dinner tonight is chicken n dumplings yummy can't wait it's one of my faves!!

I am shooting for 195. If I get there early, I may shoot for more, but that is my short term goal.<br><br>
bodyfat is 18 - 19% depending on the day. After the holidays it was 20 - 21 so I'm seeing some improvement there too. I think the PT is helping in that department.

I found it really easy actually. you just put in a search, find your item, select it, click to add it to your plate for the day and then enter then edit the quantity and/or meal time if you want. No gold membership here. It gives me what I want for now. I made my info public if you want to check it out. jbrinda1
I am gonna check yours out, JB. Thanks for the info. I will go over and try it out again.<br><br>
I am hungry today!!! I can't stop eating. My office is upstairs so now that I am home more I spend alot more time up here. But I feel guilty for not being downstairs more but that is where the f'n kitchen is!! If I am in the kitchen I eat. So back upstairs it is. I did change a lightbulb in the garage door opener today so I feel like I did something productive downstairs! And oh yeah went over new health insurance coverages for the new year which is probably why I wanted to eat. Premiums are going up again!!! Health Net thinks they are gods....................Okay off my rant. I am gonna go and check out daily plate to see just how many calories I just consumed........................

JB - quick question. What proportion of fat/carb/protein should you have (that little pie chart on the right of the screen)?
Does anyone that uses Dailyplate feel like their calories are high? It says I can have 2390 calories a day!!!! That seems like a lot!
R4W - My allowed calories are lower than that. I don't know, as long as I don't feel like my blood sugar is too low and I'm losing weight, I think I'm doing okay. Now I have to hit the site and enter my stuff for today.
I weighed in at 197 today. Thanks Johnny for the hint about dailyplate. I especially like the pie chart, my goal every day is to see the fat part get smaller and smaller as I go. I think that it help to visually see where your calories come from.<br><br>
In a nutshell, this puts me down 8 lbs. so far. Its coming off faster than I thought it would, so maybe I'll see if I can get that BMI down and not lose strength.

I thought someone once said 40/40 /20. Honestly I don't know. I generally seem to be high on the carbs. And my fat is not always under 20%.<br><br>
My planner on there says to lose 1.5 a week I should take in 2700. I know if I did that I would just maintain or maybe even gain. I've been averaging a net of somewhere in the low 2000s. This week I have been under 2000 most days but on weekends my gross is sometimes as high as 3500 to 4000. Yeah, I pack it in on Friday and Saturday but my long runs bring the net down to respectable numbers.

I have also heard 40/30/30, but I'm pretty sure for runners the carbs should be higher...probably more in the range of 50/30/20. I used FitDay before, but with all of you talking about it I checked out daily plate and I like it WAY better...super user friendly! They had everything I ate right off the bat...I didn't have to search and search. Good stuff!
I weighed in today and I'm down 1 lb.
Great Harvest Turkey panini with pesto and provolone. Can't possibly be good. Need to run that off tonight....
Yum!! That sounds delicious!! Once in a while won't hurt ya...you're so disciplined the majority of the time.
This week has sucked. I didn't get to do my work food shopping so I now have almost nothing left here. I am down to one clif bar. All my fruit and veg and salad stuff is vanquished. I need to replenish to stay on the straight and narrow. I do have some V* Fusion left. That stuff is not bad really.
I didn't shop this week either...I've been eating leftover lentils and ff cottage cheese for lunch. It's not pretty to look at, but it fills me up and is fairly healthy. I keep meaning to try that V8 Fusion....are there different flavors?
JB- that sounds so good right now <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">. It's also better for you than the burger and fries the majority of people buy for lunch.<br><br>
I had grapes, string cheese, and two pieces of bread for lunch. It's not the salad I had planned, but a good friend called so I never got around to making my yummy salad. I've been bad with getting my water in. I'm thinking of buying some lemon so I'll drink more.

I love that V8 Fusion!!! I didn't think I would, but I took a swig when DS4 had some and then I drank the whole thing!!! I like the berry banana.<br><br>
I read Andi's explanation of the calories and I think I may have entered my excercise wrong on DailyPlate. I am going to go and adjust. I played around a bit more and got a bit more familiar with it. I had a hard time entering last night's dinner (i made it and couldn't figure out how to enter the recipe) I am determined to figure it out.<br><br>
Today sucked, stressful and the easiest thing to eat was chocolate cake then DS15 made choco chip cookies!! See Nicole they are evil!! I ate 2 but that is not counting the stupid dough!!! UGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <img alt="roll_eyes.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/roll_eyes.gif">

I agree!!! Mine are pretty high, too, and that's dangerous!
