down 2 this week..... almost didn't make it so i'm sticking to it like crazy glue this coming week. i know i've said it before but this time i'm for real.
Shelly that is how i started really just one day at a time. Sometimes one minute at a time. And dont let one little slip ruin the day for you cause one cookie is a far cry from a whole bag of cookies and a bowl of ice cream. It does get easier.
Thanks Julie. i keep reminding myself that i'm the one day at a time kind of person. if i don't keep telling myself one day at a time then i'll mess up. i dont think about what i'm going to eat tomorrow or the next day..... heck i dont even think about what i'm gonna have for my next meal because then i won't stop thinking about food and i'll want to munch and munch and munch. LOL i give myself an off day every now and then so i dont feel so deprived but here lately those off days are beginning to show up more. this week my goal is NO off days. if i can do it for 1 straight week (thinking day to day) then i know its possible for me to stay on this.
I lost 1.8 lbs., which is wonderful since I've been piddling along at .8, and less sometimes.
This week, I ate more, exercised less, and lost more. Go figure! I really think with as much exercise as I do, I wasn't feeding myself enough and my body was hanging on to the weight.
Sheila, I agree with you about eating more and losing weight - that's what happened to me last week when I lost 3lb. I think it's good to give a sluggish metabolism a boost now and again.
I stayed the same this week - TOM so I'm not dissappointed.
Down to 259 -- I've been counting carefully, and this 1600 isn't cutting it for me. Next week, I'm thinking about lowering my intake to 1200-1400, and then seeing what happens.
