calories didn’t track yesterday - had wine and cookies with a neighbor after running into them for a walk around the local pond so probably got started on weekend numbers a little early
Excercise - walk around the pond - it’s only about a mile

Calories - didn’t track yesterday, but I did fine for a weekend
Excercise yesterday was a lot of strenuous gardening, today, 1 hour weights and half an hour of elliptical
I dropped below the 220 barrier this weekend, which is kind of weird because it was the day after we had dim sum (though they were steamed, not fried, and were vegetarian bar 1 of them). I am wondering if maybe I have been eating too little, for all the talk about calorie deficit=weight gain, I wonder if my metabolism hasn’t pulled back into famine mode or something. I also was active this weekend, working around the house, and that might have had something to do with it.
I dropped one more pound over the weekend, so I’m at -15 of a planned loss of 30 pounds.
We are leaving for a week in Hawaii tomorrow. I’ll see what I can do about portion control and not drinking too many empty alcohol calories. Luckily, I’m not a big fan of most Hawaiian food other than shave ice.
I had a weekend of out of town guests and ate foods that obviously make me feel sluggish. Two Mexican food meals out, breakfast with potatoes and more empty carb treats. The tart and blueberry buckle were homemade and delicious so at least I wasn’t eating stuff that didn’t even taste good. This morning I had absolutely no motivation to go to the gym. After giving my D a motivational talk about something in her life I realized I needed to take my own advice. Went to my gym and I had a really fun Nia class.
Exercise- 50 minute dance class
1 hour on the bike
Calories- only two meals so far but I’m on track to stay under 1200
Goal -25

*Goal -15
Loss-4
lost day food and exercise
seems to be maintaining a loss of 4
calories have been too high
196.4, down a pound and a half despite eating in restaurants more than at home this past week. Apparently all those trips up and down the stairs carrying boxes and furniture from D’s old apartment to the new one helped negate the caloric excess – I kept thinking that at 250, I was always carrying around more weight than the equivalent of any one of those boxes. (I did venture to the hotel fitness center two mornings. Humbling to see the woman next to me using my top treadmill speed as her warmup!)
goal -25
loss -6.5
Calories - who knows
Exercise - a set of push ups, I’m making a big push so I can take a vacation - lots of hiking coming up, but I have o work now!
