To sit there and calculate what I've eaten and then see how little can be earned back with the meagre amount of exercise I might have been doing.. it's nuts! I'd think nothing of grabbing a quarter pounder combo because I had the munchies... yet 20 mins on the treadmill would do next to nothing to reverse any of that... <br /><br />I've fallen off the bandwagon more times that I can count, but one thing about MFP is that there's a great community of people there to kick you in the ass if that's what you need (I give everyone a green light to kick mine)... <br /><br />My biggest problem is that it still has not become part of my daily routine to track everything.. it still seems forced.. I can do it if I remember... or if I want to take the time to do it... I really have to get better at that.<br /><br />Great job on the 5 lbs so far! <br /><br />And yeah.. get yourself a decent food scale... and use it more than I've used mine! :-)Stephenhttp://www.whataboutstephen.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2688876477955108247.post-8124537683974154862012-05-03T12:59:17.747-05:002012-05-03T12:59:17.747-05:00With Weight Watchers tracking I do the same thing ...With Weight Watchers tracking I do the same thing with "earning" extra grub that day that you do with moving your ass. If I did a hardcore workout, I might go ahead and have an extra bite of potato or nibble an ice cream bar (WW chocolate cookie bars...130 calories and so damn good!) But, I also keep in mind that just because I earned it doesn't mean I can destroy it with junk. It's there if I need it but not an excuse to turn around and go back to the same old crap. <br /><br />Keep up the hard work. If you don't have a food scale to help with portions GET ONE. Let me tell you they are one hell of an eye opener and really help you moderate your portions. <br /><br />If you ever need help with nutrition or just to bitch, you know who to bug. Okay, I am not a nutrition expert but I have learned a few things. =)Kim @ Coffee Pot Chronicleshttp://www.coffeepotchronicles.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2688876477955108247.post-10217322168169363752012-05-02T18:21:03.406-05:002012-05-02T18:21:03.406-05:00Hi Christina.
