I was using www.myfitnesspal.com to log in my exercises and food, but for some reason I stopped logging in. It was really easy to log the foods in, they have everything in their database and it is correct information. But the exercises got to be a bit difficult. Since I was doing Insanity, it was easier to log. I just used vigorous calisthenics to calculate the calories burned. What I really need is a heart monitor. This way I can accurately calculate the amount of calories burned.
So for my anniversary gift from my husband, he got me a heart monitor watch. I got to pick the one I want and got a Polar FT40, which monitors heart rate and calories burned, a fit test to tell you how you are progressing and if you are in fat burning heart range. I'm so excited for it to get here!
So, back to the food diary, I have to start logging in my foods again. It really kept me on track and I knew exactly how many calories I had consumed.
I have come to a weight plateau. Stuck fluctuating between 149 and 151 lbs. I have trying to only consume 1000 calories and workout 6 days a week and running up to 29 minutes every other day. Though lately I've been slacking on the workouts, not trying as hard as I should. I have just been tired.
Thinking about decreasing to 900 or 800 calories, but I'm worried that I start getting hungry and binge.

Awesome pixs today. I am going to save a few, hope you don't mind.
So great to hear from you. Congrats on your anniversary. That is so cool he let you pick out which one you want. Have you been using it long?
Sometimes it is necessary to take a break from exercise. I know I need one every 4 weeks. I have to take about a week or two off and then go back it. I get burnt out too fast as well as my body. Doesn't help when you add stress to it.
I know what you mean by not trying to have your body hold to everything. I wonder if there is anything you can do differently to get that scale to start moving a little bit.
Take care.
