I like your daily weigh in, to help with accountability.  I tried staying off the scale this week, and I think that got me in the long run.  I need that daily accountability for right now.

Starting Weight:  210.4

Weekly Saturday Weigh-in:
5/15:  207
5/22:  204

Total Weight Loss:  6 lbs

I do have the same excitement!  I want to be fit, thin and healthy so very bad, for me and my son.  Mindless eating got me.  Somehow I need to keep myself aware at all times, especially when fixing food for my son.  And stay away from the wine!  Ug.

So 2 bumps on the road this week led to a big fat “zero” on the scale today.

Irritated at t…[Read more]

Back on track. 🥳

I am counting my bar bites more closely today.  My protein bar is 10 regular bites!  Holy cow!  It is nearly the same weight and size as a snickers, but I knew it looked a little bigger so I was cutting off the ends of the bar and throwing them away.  However, this is much larger than I had guessed.  Starting today, I am eating half for lunc…[Read more]

Congratulations! Nicely done.

Well, I made it a whole week without faltering.  I caved and had some wine last night, which led to some extra bites, but I am back at it today.  Not going to let a little wobble get me down. I didn’t eat a whole lot, but it made my stomach ache due to the extra volume!

Dr. Lewis is my new work from home coworker. Lol. I stream the chats while I work all day.

@allison – that is fantastic!  Happy the discussion helped you.  I hope you can join us on the call next Monday!  These weekly calls are incredibly helpful and motivating.

@drlewis – thanks for the encouragement!  Hoping for a “10” loss this week, and doing my very best to get there.

I love this Matt:

“when I used to feel hunger pains, I would just crunch my stomach and do some type of workout (even if just for 30 seconds), then drink some water and/or coffee”

Keep up the great work!  I have a feeling that we have the “A team” on the community boards right now.  We are all here to get things done, for good this time!

Tonight was a little more difficult, but I pulled through.  Allowed myself to have a few bites of what I was craving, and immediately threw the rest in the garbage.  I am not going to let A…[Read more]

You got this!  Some of us, it takes a little longer to get the hang of things.  But each time we do this, we are learning from our mistakes/past, setting us up for eventual success.  I have a feeling this is going to be the time you see success, and hit that goal!  So exciting to see you back here giving it your all.
