Glad to see you!!

yes this is the place to be for me too!

I listen to chats every day and read any new posts and also add a post (or a few) of my own. 

So helpful as a “time out”!

So, my plan was to continue to just do bars and to continue with my food diary. But, Yesterday, when I was out,  I saw McDonald’s. I decided to try with Dr. L  has talked a lot about: ordering fast food and taking 5 bites and throwing it away. This has always been a problem for me. I ordered the $1 hamburger, took five very small bites, (to be sur…[Read more]

I love this quote because it is exactly where I am right now! I’ve got my well-managed plan mapped out and need to keep in managed every day!!  

I know it seems crazy like keeping the journal is conjuring the “weight loss fairies” or something!!  🧚‍♀️

Lol. I don’t really get why but at this point, I don’t care why. I just want to get to my goal!! So I am going to keep doing it.

I had a really good week, (-6 pounds!)  and am going to continue doing this food diary. It keeps me in line 100%. Also, going to keep doing bars! This combo is giving me my best results since the first few weeks. I also love doing the analysis each day. I may be a geek, but at least I will be a skinny geek! 🤓

I think on days like these we should lose EXTRA bonus  pounds! Lol. It’s only fair!! 😂

This week’s chat was perfect for me to hear on my way home from babysitting today. I was babysitting for my 2 1/2-year-old twin granddaughters and one of them had a seizure! To make things worse, my X husband was there visiting and we do not get along at all! Once things settled down , I immediately wanted to eat. Like Dr. Lewis said, This is l…[Read more]

Yes. I really like doing this diary and just eating bars for now. I weigh in on Thursday and hoping to show a 5 pound loss.

If I can drop 20 pounds/ month I will be happy.

I have a few different time line goals.

1. Trip to NC on 3/29 = under 150

2. Concert Date with hubby and some old High School friends on 4/13= under 140

I weighed 140 my…[Read more]

I don’t think it is.

I read that it might help with fluid retention while on prednisone.

Hi Cossandra!

I was thinking about you moving and how Exciting that can be with a different mind set. New place! New life! Look at the changes you and your husband are making with your bodies. Change is good!

Sounds like you will have plenty to do to keep from thinking about food! 

Also, about you and your husband being sick. Being sick…[Read more]

Ok. Thank you! This is awesome! I am really enjoying the analysis.

What do you think about potassium?

Will it help me?
