Thanks. It's so annoying having to re-lose!!! But I'm dead set on losing it and more!!!
This weekend was pretty good I think. Not sure exactly what my cals are but I think I finished up between 100-300 cals over my weekly goal. Would have preferred to be under but with so much stuff happening this weekend it wasn't so bad! I also took my dog for a walk again today, though a slightly shorter walk as it was rainy and I was just in shorts.
Have to stay at my mom's house tomorrow night so trying to figure out food I need to bring with me for the evening and for tomorrows lunch.
 
Re-losing. I like that expression. I have to re-lose 4kg :( You'll get to your goal weight for sure, Mystic, as you have such a great attitude. Hope things are not too stressful. It's good that you are making sure that you are prepared. Cheers, xo Cate.
 
Thank you!!
Had a decent day today, it's always hard for me when I am at my parents house. Finished at 1830 cals for the day. I would have preferred 1500 but 1800 is technically my daily goal so it's not bad, just can be as relaxed on the weekend though sometimes I'm too relaxed on the weekends. I'd like to stay at 1800-2000 on Friday-Sunday rather than going too high. Back to my house tomorrow so it was a nice short stay, but I do have a horse show coming up which is always hard for me but I'm gonna do it! I may be going on a date tomorrow but if I have time I want to get back to exercising. If not tomorrow then the day after I WILL work out!
 
Thanks guys.
The date went well enough. Went to the dog park and walked our dogs. He's a tall australian so he had a cute accent which never hurts. We'll probably go out again.
Finished up at 1540 calorie wise which is pretty good. Still want to be a touch more strict as there was no reason I shouldn't have been able to finish up under 1500 cals. Didn't fit in a work out today. Fell asleep in front of the couch at 9:30 and just woke back up a couple mins ago around 11:20, so apparently I was tired. Just gonna get up, make my lunch and hop into bed.
 
Tall, Australian & likes dogs? Nice! I love that you think Australian accents are cute, as we think Canadian ones are. Hope it works out for you Mystic xo Cate
 
Glad the date went well,

No offense cate but I'm not a fan of the Australian accent, I'm a kiwi though so I'm sure you understand :p

Most of us kiwis move over your way though, better weather, better salaries,
I enjoyed the one year I lived on the Gold Coast when I was 16.
 
Congrats on the date! Hope it all goes well for you. I'm positive I heard a joke once that began "a Canadian and an Australian go out on a date..." :D
 
Thanks guys, haha.
He was a nice guy and seems very taken by me for such little time spent together. Though he was nice, I don't think I felt a romantic (or possible romantic) connection with him. I did agree to a second date, so we will see but I'm not holding my breath.
TOday wasn't great calorie wise as my mom invited me out with her and my aunt and uncle who are down. I finished up at about 2000 cals. I then went to the mall and walked around (and bought a new workout outfit as I really want to get back into doing my workouts), came back home and went for an actual walk. Well it actually turned out to be a walk/skip/dance/sing type thing, haha. I was listening to music as I was walking and could resist dancing and skipping and singing as I went. I'm sure that everyone around me thought I was a lunatic, but it was fun and burnt more cals than a regular walk! Was about an hour long.
Need to go grocery shopping tomorrow, and should have time to do my work out as my horse needs another day off. I'm hoping to stay around 1300 cals tomorrow and friday to try to make up for being a little higher in cals monday (1800) and today (2000). Especially with it being a long weekend I want to have some additional cals for the weekend.
 
Very recognizable, I do the same thing when listen to music, gesturing to the music and stuff. Ppl must think I'm a few cards short of a full deck or something, but I don't care.
 
I walk around singing & tapping etc, without listening to music. I'm often accused of talking to myself, but explain that I usually have a song in my head. I wake up most mornings with some song in my head. Your "walk/skip/dance/sing type thing" made me laugh! Who cares? You sound happy. Happy is good :D Re the Australian- not all good relationships start off feeling romantic. You never know! xo Cate
 
Thanks you guys. So I actually finished off my cals at 1300 to try to make up for going a bit high yesterday. Hoping to finish off at 1300 tomorrow too. However I really wanted to do my workout, go for a walk, and start cleaning my apartment and I did... none of those. :( Grr. Back to riding tomorrow, with a 5 day show starting on Wednesday.

Finished up at about 1330 today. This gives me a bit more freedom for the long weekend. Tomorrow I am going on a second date with the australian. We are going to a Thai restaurant I really like. Gonna estimate that at 1400 cals and gonna try to keep the whole day under 2000.
Rode my horse for the first time since he had some vet work done a couple days ago and he felt great. I feel a lot of improvement so I'm really happy we got it done. Hopefully this also helps with some of the jumping problems we've been having.
 
Thanks.
Did good on cals today. Finished at just over 1900 cals, which means technically I could eat 2600 cals tomorrow and still be in my weekly cals, but I would prefer to go no higher than 2200 cals
Rode my horse in the afternoon today and that went pretty good. Had my second date with the Aussie. I was initially thinking that I would most likely tell him that, though he was a nice guy, I didn't think we really had a connection. However I felt like we had a bit more of a connection today than the first date. It helped we were sitting and facing each other. He's better looking than I remember him to be too, haha. So I'm gonna go on at least a 3rd date and see how things go.
 
I'm glad the date went well Mystic. Being better looking than you remember is a bonus :D. What part of Australia is he from?
