I actually had to sit outside the building to avoid it. But I made it without using a pause day this weekend! Magistra and Hard Working Dog, you are crushing it! Gardener, dangerous Curves, Ashli, Obsidian, and everyone else, I love that we are supporting each other through our challenges. |
Dr Geri You are off and running really well!!! No spuds, no sweets, quite a combination to stay away from.

Thanks everyone for the support
Love2garden congratulations on being more than half way done.:bravo: Challenge 1 Stay on Plan (SoP)/Challenge 2 bring lunch or breakfast (LoP)to work 3 pause days each June 15 1/21 (SoP) june 16 2/21 (soP) - 1/21 Lunch. I don't want anything I have in the fridge so I picked up some prepared hamburgers and salad for work. june 17 3/21 (SoP) - 2/21 lunch June 18 4/21 (SoP) - (3/21) Lunch - Scale is down and I think I think I've learned I don't need elaborate meals. Quick and easy seem to work better and small diverse meals rather than large pots of stuff I'll get tired of eating. June 19 5/21 (SoP) Lunch 4/21 June 20 6/21 (soP) June 21 (7/21) SoP finally hit the 350s June 22 8/21 (SoP) - 4/21 brought Lunch Life is pretty good, learning I want quick and easy dishes to cook or I won't make them, no need it making a big pot of something or maybe I can freeze half...Me and the scale are ok. I'll catch up with everyone tonight. June 23 Pause day on Bringing Lunch. this was sort of planned since I am going out after work and didn't want to bring my backpack. Oh and I got a new car GMC terrain....:carrot: |
Challenge: Substituting dark chocolate and flavored tea for cookies and ice cream after dinner. I will have three pause days.
Day 1: complete (4 squares Lindt dark chocolate / cinnamon tea) Day 2: complete (3 squares Lindt dark chocolate / iced mint tea with Splenda) Day 3: complete (4 squares Ghirardelli Twilight Delight, one square Lindt Intense Mint / water instead of tea) Day 4: complete (no dessert, went to bed early) Day 5: complete (strawberries instead of chocolate, mint tea) Day 6: complete (hanging in there! really wanted to eat a lemon popsicle tonight but opted for 4 squares of Twilight Delight, and mint tea w/Splenda) Day 7: pause day Day 8: complete (opted for a homemade berries/yogurt/ice smoothie) Day 9: complete (tried a new flavor today, Lindt intense orange. Wow, it was so good, it was hard to only eat a serving size. So I am having baked cinnamon apple tea, which tastes just like apple cobbler only without the calories, yum!) Day 10: complete (4 squares of Lindt intense orange, no tea tonight, really busy sewing!) Day 11: complete (no dessert tonight, don't know if this day really counts as complete since I had Menchies yogurt for lunch. Hmmm. My husband tried to hand me a popsicle this evening and I refused. So maybe one cancels out the other . . . ) Day 12: complete (3 squares Lindt intense mint, no tea, tired so I went to bed.) Day 13: complete (3 squares Lindt intense mint. Cinnamon tea on ice!) Day 14: pause day Day 15: complete (5 squares Lindt coconut dark chocolate.) I'm doin it, doin it, makin it happen. :D :carrot: :D |
magistra17 :bravo: almost done.
Love2garden :high: I am thinking you're done or close to done. |
Obsidianbbw The cheerleading really does help. Thanks
1/2 pound lost this past week, slow and sure. At least it wasn't a gain!!! Mag Indeed you are doing it. Stopping the chocolate at only a few pieces is really showing restraint, and instead of ice cream, too. Day 1 5754 steps Day 2 Already well over 5,000 and plenty of day left!
