Hugs to you. I'm sorry you are struggling right now. Also, keep checking to see if the Dr. has an earlier appointment. Hang in there and I'm praying for you.

Good morning,
Will work out in a few minutes.
Steps from yesterday was 6,000 +
Weight was down again this morning

I literally just felt like giving up after seeing 207.2 on the scale a few days ago. I haven't felt like exercising. I just felt like a failure. I also went through a spell where I had to bury alot of feral kittens from the neighborhood. None in one litter made it after mom abandoned them after weaning and the feral cat that stays under the neighbors house had kittens and a pitbull from the neighborhood dragged them all out and killed everyone but one that I found in my motor later in the day.

Please don't harass me about catching them and spaying them. We had a GREAT feral program before covid, but it got shut down. I have emailed multiple agencies to come help with our cat population but no one cares.. interestingly it has not grown that much because of predators and illnesses.

I do what I can to help babies that are abandoned and injured cats with infections that find their way to my house where i feed and warm them.. my heart almost cant take it anymore.

I dont have the money to take them myself.

My mom is still stressing me out because she is still at my sisters and I never know how that is going to go. She's paying rent at the house next door, but will be looking for housing in OKC????

Anyways, im trying to stay calm and pray through it all.

I failed my IF diet miserably and fell asleep eating pita chips.

I ate chicken tenders, 1 wanton, 4 packs seaweed, 1 piece of cheese, 10 pita chips right before bed.

I was 204.6 when I woke up yesterday. 204.0 today!! What???? How did that happen? I was waiting to be punished for my mini binge??? I also ate 2446 calories yesterday (im tracking again)

Anyways, wanted to drop in and notify you im still here!

LadyB Hugs. I too have been depressed.
nett, yay on the progress of weight loss
Great devotion Diane, i struggled in running as a kid. I never struggled in lifting weight or resistance exercises though.
girl, i read 2 Timothy 4 today. Its good Bible reading is a goal
ciecie, yay on good appointment
yangtzer, also praying for your peace. I find 16/8 helps with night binging but not always, I just found some onion soup packets, if im tempted again might try a hot cup with some sprinkled in.

I already got in the rest of my Turkish delight rose and lemon stash before I drank my tea! Hope I can appreciate food and not abuse myself with it

Good afternoon! I got up earlier than usual this morning because I had a doctors appointment. The bus didn’t come to pick me up so I called to find out if I was on the schedule to be picked up. I wasn’t on the schedule. I called my doctor to cancel my appointment. I re-scheduled it for next Friday. I did 2 miles Leslie Sansone this morning. I also went for a power walk and ran errands this morning. I did a load of laundry this morning. I’m going to fold the towels in a few minutes. 😁🍁😷🎃

Good morning,
this entire month has been stressful with each weekend having something going on. Dog rally trial on the first, then 2 day craft fairs the next two, traveling to Vt for a concert tonight. and during the week while trying to get ready for next craft fair I have had my grandson, and take him to school and pick him up. 2 weeks this month. He is great and I enjoy having him, I am just exhausted with all the travel. I am trying to find him a car as his is a piece of crap and always broke down.

LadyB-sorry you are going through this, hope your Dr has some good ideas. Maybe it is time to try something new. I tried Nutrisystem but the sodium in the foods really got to me. I like WW but no longer have one where i live, the accountability of having someone else weigh me helped to keep me on track.

Good morning all
Gone astray, yikes that is busy. Praying for some time enjoying things at a normal pace to lower cortisol levels
Ciecie, yes that is good to be focused and have positive attitude with set backs
Yangtzer, its so cool you jump rope for exercise. How did you do last night? I ate again!
LadyB hope you are feeling better
Girl I read 2 Titus today. What do you think about Matthew 17?
Diane, thanks for a safe haven.
nett, hope you see more losses soon

Last night, before bed I had turkey roll ups with goat cheese, spinach, hawaiian bread and oatmeal (peaches and cream) with apple pie filling apples and milk.

Good Morning, Everyone!

Steps from yesterday: 8,992

Have a Blessed day and stay safe and healthy!

Copied from Crosswalk Devotions for Dieters

October 21

Matthew 13:31-32
Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, 'The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field: Which indeed in the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.'

All too often, people tackle diets that are too big for them. They try to give up everything at once, hoping to lose a huge amount of weight in a short period of time. Usually, that won't work. We should learn that the greatest successes come in small steps. We need to set modest goals that we can handle, so we don't get discouraged. God blesses our small efforts, for they are usually the most sincere and realistic. Ask God's guidance, and He will grant you exactly the right amount of strength you need to triumph.

Today's thought: Giving up a little at a time will keep me from giving up altogether!

Good morning
We had the kids last night so I made spaghetti. My weight however, was up this morning.
