Great job, Letileti! :cheer:

Day 2 of reset:
152.0

Hard to believe I’m 5 pounds lighter this morning! I think I’ll have a nice big first-week loss to encourage me and get me going strong again.

Can’t wait to have some momentum behind me! I think that’s what really helps me. Once I’m on a winning streak, I’m determined not to blow it. But during the first week, I don’t…[Read more]

Such a motivating chat tonight! I feel so ready to lose big this week!!

In keeping with my commitment to honesty (no more denial!), I just updated my weight tracker. I guessed on the last 4 weeks and brought my weight up to 157 for today. (I want the weight tracker to reflect the actual time I’ve been on the slimming station. I have to face…[Read more]

Thank you! And good job jumping right up after yesterday!!

I’m still hoping to make the chat. And I’m still on track for the day! :cheer:

I’m about to have supper- a challenging time for me. Yes, I can! Yes, I can! Yes, I can!

Ok, I’m ready.

I am jumping in with both feet to show myself that I am fully committed to this. So I WEIGHED this morning. I have been too scared to do that for about a month! Of course, I could tell I’d regained most of my weight, but it still seemed impossible to face the numbers. (Denial?!) Now that I’ve faced the truth of my situation, I…[Read more]

Thank you for the encouragement.

Still not back on track!!

I feel like I need somebody to hold my hand to get me through the first week . . . By the way, would anyone like an accountability partner for the next week? :laugh: If so, let me know!

Either way, my plan is to journal here and set my mind first thing tomorrow morning. I need to do…[Read more]

I’m here trying again to get back to that wonderful place of feeling motivated and in control . . . Not sure why it’s been such a struggle for me the past few weeks. I’ve been there before!! But now I’ve undone all that hard work . . .

Anyway, I’m feeling good today and am on track to make this day 1 of a winning streak. No matter what, I…[Read more]

I’ve noticed it always seems to work if I go there right after logging in. If I spend time on the forum first and then try to go to the tracker, it messes up. But then I can just log out and log back in to make it work.

Thank you, controlit!

I just finished a perfect day 3 of my “come-back.” I’m feeling hopeful and excited again! My next huge milestone will be 1 week. I’m going to do it! I will soon be strong like before- when it seems easier to continue perfectly than to consider cheating. Can’t wait!!

You will do great, Beth! It’s good you’re thinking ahead so you can make a specific plan. Are you planning to keep 5biting while there or start enjoying maintenance eating? You could post your plan here and maybe commit to weighing as soon as you get back.

And if you have time after your trip, I would love to hear any tips you may have on how to…[Read more]

Thank you, Dr. Lewis. That perspective is very helpful!

I am excited to have completed 1.5 days of perfection. Every hour I get through makes me stronger. I must keep going! It will feel so good when I’m back in my 5b groove again!!

Welcome, Corey! Your goal is brilliant, and I’ll be excited to witness your success! :cheer:

So sorry, Dr. Lewis . . . and the rest of you . . . and myself! I crashed again.

Today I’ve had (another) perfect day 1, and I’m feeling great again. But can I keep it up??

Once I have some momentum behind me, I’m so strong. But when I’m trying to get started or re-started, the smallest little temptations can do me in. I can’t let that happen…[Read more]

Wow, Pia! That’s definitely something to celebrate! You are both doing amazing!! :cheer:

Wow, Beth!! Congratulations!! :cheer:

I am so impressed and excited for you! And it increases my motivation to find that same success!

Woo-hoo! Yesterday I finally had one perfect day again!!

Thank you so much, Dr. Lewis and Gayle!!

You are so right, Dr. Lewis. I DO truly want to be thin. And I have already worked very hard and gotten results to show that. I just need to jump right back in to what I’ve been working towards. And like you said, keep practicing the habits…[Read more]

18 perfects!! Great job, everyone! :cheer:

And you’re all inspiring me to get back on track . . .

S.O.S.!!

I have spiraled downward and completely out of control . . . I have no idea how to pick myself up again. I keep trying but only last a few hours . . . I’m sure I have regained all the weight but I’m even sadder about the “monster” being in control again. I thought I had it beat . . .

Ok, I’m hoping that publicly confessing my fall and…[Read more]

Yes, I had the biggest crash ever on Friday night. I wish I had the time to journal all the details because I still don’t fully understand what went wrong- why the craving was so strong, why I gave into it, why I continued eating beyond all reason . . . It seems like I was going so strong, so I’m sort of baffled about how I could fall into such…[Read more]

Way to go, Beth!!

Ok, today is Sunday, the 28th. And if I have counted correctly, we have 11 perfects here so far. And there are 4 more opportunities to post (unless, of course, you’ve already taken too many bites today- in that case there are 3 more opportunities for you! )

I would like to set an ambitious group goal so we can finish May str…[Read more]
