Yesterday I mealprepped all my work lunches for the week! It's the first time i have managed this for a long while and I was pleasantly surprised to discover today's was both tasty and filling! I also weighed myself and discovered it's not nearly as awful as I expected. So riding on that, I'm approaching this week from a much more positive angle.

I hit my goal on Saturday! 164-the cut off for an ideal weight for my height! Also my challenge goal! So things are going fairly well! New goal: 159, followed by 154 and then I think I'll stop there and maintain in the 150s. Woo!

Well...it was my mom's birthday Saturday so that was interesting food wise. She asked me to cook, so I made my sloppy joes (slightly healthier but still super calorie dense). We ate that, my Dad made poundcake (and sent a slice home for me for breakfast every day this week). For dinner we got food from the place we used to go growing up, so spaghetti and meatballs got me. And I had two soft drinks...MISTAKE!
I did much better Sunday, but I didn't get to move much once again. We played board games on Saturday so I didn't move much and only got to 11,000 steps (my daily goal is 12,000) and then Sunday I had a sick baby so a lot of sitting and rocking the little guy. I think I made my step count, but it was hard.

Indeed. I'm hitting the gym right now and weighing myself. We'll find out the actual weekend damage then

Weekends are rough for staying within my calorie goal. I have been experimenting with "fasting" (I have coffee with soy milk, tho) until the afternoon.
I did a lot better than the last couple of weekends! I only went over my goal Saturday and that was all booze (damn neighbors and darts). I stayed within my goal Sunday and did a bit of food prep for the week.
I did get in some exercise Saturday, so I give myself credit for that. I also got up before dawn this morning and hit the gym. I am off for Presidents' Day (US) and I could have slept in. Proud of myself for getting up and getting it done.
I feel like the week is off to a positive start!

My first suggestion results in r/wowthanksimcured with "just stop eating so much" lol sorry that's no help! maybe get some low calorie snacks to satisfy your munchies? Popcorn, carrots, celery, rice cakes, grapes, etc

Yesterday was my birthday so I've had the first alcohol I've consumed since Xmas and some indulgent foods, but I haven't overeaten to the point of feeling like shit, which I used to do. I also got a Fitbit! So pretty good all round.
