TweetDamn! I am so far down the list I feel obsolete. I am on my run but got totally scared once I hit 135 on the scale in only 3 weeks. Sorry guys but have to cut back the fat and macros to what I was on before. I still need to lose a bunch of fat.This would have worked if I was still working out 6 days a week, but now I';m cut to 3 days.

Is this right??

TweetI know there is a lesson in this past 3 weeks. When you think you have the least amount of time or when things barge into your life and mess it up a little is when you need to stick with the game plan the most. I have been very lax on myself about my diet these past few weeks especially on high and mid carb days. The problem with that is when you get a sandwich or a salad here and there it is virtually impossible to know how many calories fat etc.. you are taking in. I finally looked up a Jason's Deli Club sandwich on MY Fitness Pal and it was 700 calories and 55g fat, the next Club Sand on the list was 450 cal and 25 fat. No way to know what the ones I have eaten are. I have been my own worst enemy. Plus when I am not keeping up with my log I tend to not think about what I ate as long as I know I packed all the usual healthy stuff I am supposed to eat. I now believe that the only days that were spot on are the ones that I logged because I had a plan. Well that's that. I'm going to do better.

Killer workout trixie.... Don't get down on yourself. I think another lesson is also that even if you slip you jump right back on. I keep harping on this to my sister.... she slips up for a few day and quits and then goes way off the deep end. Goal is long term and if ya fuck up just jump right back on. Over time you're still moving in the right direction.

Thanks gusto, I have finally learned that you can't let a few failures throw you into despair. A hard lesson to learn while having a lifetime of dieting. This is a lifestyle not a diet. I heard that over and over again all my life but never really understood the concept. I realized I was only letting myself down. Having friends to keep me accountable has been crucial in this new experience. Thanks for being there for me, I'm just too old to backslide and have to start all over again.LOL

TweetHaha, back at it today. Better diet this past weekend very planned out. Felt great to get to the gym nice and early felt strong. I am on my second no carb day so I am looking forward to having full carbs for my leg days! I am still trying to put a little boost on to my fat and calories for now so I stick with the plan. Still only getting 3 days in at the gym so I am trying to make the most out of them.
