I decided to forego pizza night with my kids tonight. I know I have a hard time not eating A LOT of pizza. And I’m so happy with my decision. I decided today that I will eat pizza with them once a month, but my goals on this calorie deficit challenge are to figure out how to allow myself all the foods in an 80/20 ratio. So grateful to feel s…Read More

We did it! 129 protein and 1533 out of 1510. Woohoo

Bad migraine day 4! 😩 Chiropractor appt, doctor appointment, grocery store, cardio, cleaned, picked up vitamins, took a bath and now closing my eyes early to hopefully get rid of this migraine. I hope everyone crushed this day! Don’t let the weekend be your WEAK END!

This was yesterday. Again didn’t get any points bc I was over on everything, I think from being severely under on everything the day prior! Can honestly say I didn’t eat junk and ate whole nutritious foods! That’s how I knew I was starving bc I ate so well and was reaching for higher quality food!!

Forgot to post yesterday. It took some real mental work to navigate when my kids are the last of some of my portioned meals, but I always try to keep a plan B! And with I plan I was able to meet my goals!

Some additional meal prep — such a great recipe. Lillie Eats & Tells Southwest Quinoa Bake with Chicken. I added asparagus and broccoli, and drizzled red enchilada sauce over it. Can’t wait for this for lunch tomorrow.

My macros for today — did really well.
~ Calories 97 under
~ Protein 10 g over
~ I started eating dinner earlier and using evening snack to balance out my macros for the day. I take an idea of what I want which has the target macros (do I need more protein, more carbs, calories, how much fat do I have still in my budget for the day). I then…Read More

Today was another great day. Right on track!!! 🙌🏼

Today I indulged in a couple cookies and a mini bag of chips they had while visiting mum at the hospice. Couldn’t sleep well last night but I did what I could and got a 40 min incline walk going to get the heart rate up and tracked everything. All in all, a good day I think 🤔

Eh didn’t have the best day today. I was hungry and had the munchies and was pretty active today so that might be why. Trying not to dwell on it though. Will try to do better tomorrow!

Today was a little bit more challenging. Definitely felt hunger but I kept the craving under control. Hi my protein ant 130 and my calories!

Not submitting this from yesterday as I wouldn’t get any points, but want to stay consistent in posting! This was a travel days after working night shift. Went to airport on 3 hours of sleep, then flight got delayed (while we were boarded). This week I’m back home for my bridal shower so really want to focus on my goals for the wedding and stay consistent!

Hit my macro goals today – all delish
~ Calories 70 under.
~ Protein 9 g over.
No real movement – unanticipated cortisone shot in my foot / ankle for “Tarsal Tunnel Syndrome” and completely numb foot and ankle for 9 hours. Still feels crazy.
Tomorrow is another day for the gym and more steps.
Loving seeing everyone’s posts and comments –…Read More

Thank you to the ninja creami for the high protein snack that satisfies my sweet tooth!

1472 out of 1510 calories. And 129 protein. Feeling good so far 💪 Good night 💤

I need to start paying more attention to my fiber intake. Any suggestions for easy ways to up that?

I finished today’s goals. Also day 2 no wine. I definitely need to resume my walks now that my husband is home. I am literally a sedentary shut-in otherwise because I work remotely from home. It’s been a real double-edged sword these past 4 years. I also need to meal plan and stop eating random stuff to meat my protein goals 🤣

My go to snack right now. Love Greek yogurt and berries.

Yesterdays macros. I wasn’t able to post last night for some reason! I am upping my fiber today with more berries and veggies.

Posting late since I got busy at work and missed midnight! This was for Tuesday! 💪🏼

Macros for today — did well. It was tricky to balance at the end of the day with carefully planned snacks, but I did it. Ended the day at 88 calories under and 6 g protein over. Happy to have hit my micronutrients and well over fiber goal as well.

Ok, my day wasn’t perfect (or easy) because I have a bug and am home alone for another day with my little kids, but I managed to get within 10g of my protein goal and 100 cal of that goal. Impressive considering I had to swap out my pre planned dinner for pizza delivery (hence the high fat number today). All in all I’m still really proud of myself…Read More
