Let's C if this works.

DAMN IT.  Who's idea was this to change my theme?

 

 Counting Calories.

Sometimes I count my daily caloric intake and sometimes I don't.  Sometimes I'm a little fat and sometimes I'm a lot.
........

Counting calories it is.


I've been using My Fitness Pal for about 3 years.  I weigh the same now as when I started.  It's going well.  When I actually use the app, I track everything I eat and stay within my caloric limits and I start seeing weight loss success.   
WHEN I use the app.  

I will be using My Fitness Pal diligently throughout this month to count my calories and stay on track to lose these last 10 pounds. 



Do I still need to abstain if I stay within my calories?

  1. Using a calorie counter was how I started my weight loss journey and it has helped a lot. I still use it on occasion, but I'm not as dedicated as I used to be....

    1. ^oops! I commented under my other account ;)

      I just stopped by for a visit. I'm now self conscious of my commas.

  4. I try to avoid counting calories. My approach is to either accept the expanding waistline or get out and exercise more.

  5. I used Myfitnesspal for a while, it worked great. The problem is that I'm not too lazy to run, or too lazy to eat right, but I AM too lazy to sit down and figure out the calories for anything that isn't already in their database. I found you on the A to Z challenge, and not related to this post, but WHAT A GREAT NAME FOR A BLOG!

    1. I completely agree with both MFP and my name!! ;)

      A lot of my calories are added as "quick add" calories. Between my nutrition scale and my printed fruit/veggie/meat guides that are taped to the inside of my cupboards, I have a pretty good idea of what I'm consuming. This is probably why I'm always quitting MFP....

  6. I always had trouble adding calories... Some extras always sneaked in. Good luck with your goals. I used to enjoy running when I was younger, but I am a long way from it now. Stopping by on the A-Z

So we did something fun!

So we did something super fun and scary last spring... we decided to move to our lake cabin full time !  Ahhh!  It's been very trying and very exciting and I think we're actually settled in out here.  Also, HI!  I know it's only been a short while since I posted last...errr...ok, it's been a year and a half, but priorities, right? So, yeah, downsizing...haha!  In 2 years, we've gone from 3800 square feet of living space to about... 750.  And, you know what? It's totally not all sunshine and rainbows, but it works!  Living at the lake and having all of these amazing trees around us is completely worth it.  The boys have settled into, yet, another new school and this school is the best one yet! Around the end of April last year, I came out to the cabin to clean up our holiday trailer so we could sell it.  I took a break, made a caesar , and sat on the front lawn with Duke in the small bit of sunshine that made its way through the ...

Feel the burn.

B is no longer for beer and I'm sad   I really should have thought this theme through a little bit more.  Words that start with B and are relative to my "commit to fit" challenge aren't the easiest to come by.  I've decided to go with " burn "  because I am already feeling it!! On Saturday I decided to terrorize exercise my core and upper body after my run.  DOMS set in late on Sunday and after an intense work out tonight, I dread laughing.    My commit to be fit challenge will include 3-4 strength training sessions per week in addition to my half marathon training program.  It's time to feel the burn !  Can you feel it?
