June - Food and/or Exercise Log

[Emptynester]

This is the place to brag, confess, commiserate, encourage or anything else you want to do. You can log food by the meal, day or week. Use points, calories or a list. Keep track of exercise (or lack thereof).

Use this thread however you want. Or just peek in to cheer us on or be inspired (or amused )

OK - here I go again. My goals are: Stay between 1,000 and 1,200 calories, walk 6 days per week for at least 1/2 hour (hopefully 3/4 hour by end of month), do strength building exercises on M, W, & F, belly busting exercises on T, R & S. Weigh in every Thursday. Sundays are a day of rest from exercising. (DOR)

Stayed on food program: 6/1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, oops, 12, 13, oops, 15, 16, oops, 18, 19, 20, 21 oops,, 22, 29,

Nice job MT - down 4 pounds.

Wow, MT, waist down five inches! That must make a huge difference in how your clothes fit! Congrats!

[Emptynester]

Yep - jeans that I had set aside for Good Will now fit again. I don't even have to lay down on the bed to zip them up.

Sweat pants almost fall off.

Still many, many inches to go. I still look about 7 months pg.

Joined a gym 2 days ago and had my orientation with all the weight machines this morning. I was able to do all of them and had a good chat with the personal trainer who showed me around. Started tracking my calories and exercise on thedailyplate.com so I can keep track of how many cals I can consume and how many I've already had for the day. My muscles feel warmed up and good! I may even try to do the spinning class on Mondays and Tuesdays. Otherwise, it'll be a (body) section of weights followed by cardio on my way home from work, with Sunday being my day of active rest.
Feeling pretty hopeful! I liked the trainer and she has good price "special" through the summer, so will talk that over with dh. I want to have my body fat down to more normal levels before we go to Italy next summer and it's not coming off without a fight!
