    Holy cats! its Tuesday and I havent checked in with my weekly whine fest! I was on business trips for the last few days and havent had time or inclination to eat right. But (and this is a big but...) I have noticed I am making better choices and not eating between meals. Is this was the rest of the world does? I have practically cut out all red meat and avoid fatty foods, on purpous..wo-hoo me! Now if I could just control this sweet tooth.
    OK new week:
    more fruit...less processed food.
    thas it..thats all I got...

    I'm still on the no caffeine kick but I am getting used to it and I am not craving chocolate anymore. Although I did have a bad moment when I saw the cadbury flake with the white chocolate inside...mmm, double chocolate...

    Personally, I think we should start a "commitment of the day" thread. If I cam get through an entire day without cheating, it's a freaking miracle.
    Good for you keeping off the coffee, Mauvais!

    Ginya, you're doing great! Keep it up!

    My commitments have all gone flying out the window this week. Period week, and for some reason this one I seem to be eating everything in site. I am still working out and exercising so hopefully it is not to awful a turn out some Tuesday night whenI a have to get back on the scales.

    Mauvaisroux- Cadburys flakes with white chocolate inside?? We don't get these here or is this a blessing?! Must admit I have tried to cut out chocolate completely because I know I won't stop at one piece! So I don't often look for things like this... maybe they do sell them and I just don't know about it.... will take a look just out of interest of course! Doesn't mean I would buy one.....!

    Whoops, just notice this is the commitment thread
    er, will get back to you all with a commitment...

    YOu are very welcome to join as many threads as you like. Make yourself at home! I personally do not weigh in until Tuesday as I go to TOPS that night and that is when I weigh in. Most however, do it either Sunday or Monday. The choice is yours though. WHenever! Again Welcome Suzzi!

    Welcome Suzzi

    The weekly weigh in is officially every Monday but some people do it on Sunday or whatever their program's weigh in day is. You can post on whatever day is good for you.

    Commitment week usually starts Sunday or Monday for most of us.

    I am afraid to post this week as it is our thanksgiving weekend and I have been totally off plan all weekend and tonight we are having dinner at my parents with trifle for dessert oh well, back to plan on Monday!

    Hi Suzzi,
    TOPS - Take Off Pounds Sensibly
    It is a weight loss organization that I belong to. Just started it in September. I belonged to it 5 years ago, but at that time was not really serious about weight loss, however this time is different, I also go to the gym 5 or 6 times a week, and love it. Hope you enjoy this zany group of ladies. We have a lot of fun here.
