  • Great day and productive. Loved my workout. Meal prep’d and made a yummy Lillie recipe tonight. Chose a recipe with pasta in it to work on my brain thinking pasta is “bad”. I know it’s not and something I am working on…. that I can eat reasonable quantities of pasta in a deficit and balance.

  • I thought I was doing good today when we went out for lunch. I ordered chicken fajitas with salad instead of rice and beans. When I got home and entered all of the ingredients I was WAY over on carbs, fat and calories. I split the meal in half for lunch and dinner, and thought I was doing good until I just put it in My

    • Sometimes you have to go by how you feel too. Depending on if you feel later on after eating them maybe the estimate was wrong. It’s happened to me a few times where I was starvinnng and then you can go back and look to see if maybe it’s track wrong compared to other fajita recipes

  • Protein and carbs balanced each other out. Anyone else never have a problem eating their protein grams? I always go over.

  • I haven’t posted in awhile, so I thought I’d pop in with an update. I gave up on the official challenge because I knew I’d never post every day. I’ve been tracking most days and have had no trouble staying within calories, but still struggling with protein. I’ve had a GI issue on and off since January such that most of what I eat goes right thr…Read More

  • Another gorgeous bluebird ski day – A Basin with my middle kiddo. We had SUCH a great time and I got to ski the super steeps, bumps, avalanche area and gnarly stuff. Absolutely LOVED IT and my time with my son. Priceless.❤️ Bonus? Great exercise, tired legs and shoulders, and high calorie burn day. 😎

  • GREAT DAY today! I really enjoyed it. Calories and protein were a little harder to hit this evening as I was low at lunch and no snacks during the day, but I did it. The hunger wasn’t there so I found some nutritious snacks with lower bulk to round out the cals and protein.
    Calories – 88 under
    Protein – 10 gm over

  • Happy Friday! Everyone is so focused going into the weekend! I have been on track, but for some reason I can’t post on my phone anymore? I had to wait until I could get to my desktop tonight. I don’t know why it isn’t working, but the fact that I think of being accountable to the group even though I haven’t been able to keep up with the updates…Read More

    • Heading strong into the weekend! You have yard work again? Or did u get it all done last weekend?

      • We have more yard work. Laying some dirt, doing some edging and rock and gonna hopefully start laying sod if the rain stays away. We built a house and moved in late November and it’s been awesome but I’m so ready for spring/summer and a beautiful yard to enjoy. 😊

  • Today was a total guesstimate since I went out to lunch. I had a hugggee salad which was delicious but no idea what the macros were.

    • Wins are kicking ass with my macros and praying everyday no matter what. I need to improve on journaling and relaxing when needed. I always feel guilty if I’m not constantly doing something. A little bit of ADHD going on. Time to chill and enjoy the moments I have in peace. Meditate.

      • My priorities have stayed priorities. Which is eating good and hitting the gym. Without those two things during this time with travelling a hour almost everyday to see Walter’s mama in hospice would be so hard mentally. So I’m happy we’ve been able to stick with it 🥹 this week or next Monday I would like to book the spa 🧖‍♀️ we need a day to re…Read More

    • Win for the week was staying on plan every day and getting in all 4 planned workouts! I struggled a few days wanting to slip back into “Vacation” mode, but I stuck with it! Next week I am planning to stay just as consistent.

  • I have decided to take a new job. Huge leap of faith for me. It will be totally remote. Now I have to really deal with my emotional eating! 🤣 Anyway, I feel less stressed today now that I have announced it to my team. Onward and upward. Now for my macros…here is yesterday. I was not very hungry and was traveling in the afternoon. Here is what h…Read More

    • Edit — Protein was 18 gm over (my bad)….

    • Good job. Your fat macros are so low. I could never eat that little of fat. I would go crazy! 😂

      • It’s crazy how everyone’s body is different 😂 my body would fail without fats lol took me awhile to tweak my macros when I started. My body does better high fat lower carb 🤷‍♀️

      • @Mandy, I started originally with higher fat macros and a bit lower protein with Brad a few months ago. I never hit the fat and always went over on the protein so we adjusted. I feel really good on this. One thing which makes it much easier and more suitable for me is that I am allergic to dairy. That eliminates a lot of potential fat grams.
