Day 19!

LGW, congrats on your total weight loss!!

SNOBRIGADE, where are you going on vacation?

After trying to wait it out the last couple weeks I decided my body needed me to up my calorie range. I was 1200-1800 and until I am done training I am going to aim for 1200-2000. I do not plan on getting to the 2000 very often. Last night a last cup of yogurt was just what I needed and I ended my cals for the day at 1840.

hi all!

it is super hot here today--I am trying to motivate to get out and do my walk before it gets any hotter.

I am so glad everyone is hanging in there and posting--it really helps me to read how everyone is doing.

iardajnos: I so relate. when I go home everyone has some special thing they have cooked for me. it is hard to resist. I think it would be great if we could eat a little bit of what is offered and not overeat--that would be a healthy and normal way to handle it.

tyla: congrats on day 19--you are on a roll. I am going to visit my folks on the monterey pennisula.

env: you are doing the right thing--if you are doing a lot of exercise it can actually make you stall if you dont eat enough food. also I have read that eating yogurt helps one to lose weight and for me eating yogurt also makes me less hungry. I do really well if I eat a few servings each day.

cheers all!

HI all!

it was less hot today and I got some gardening done as well as my walk. all going well--doing a low carb thing for a few days and it always is a good way to jump start things.

Cheers!

Hey all!

I had an idea--sept 16 is 100 days til xmas--thought would recharge this challenge for those of us still losing and have a 100day till xmas challenge? what do you think?

LOVE it!!!

doing good! got my walk in early today.

Just checking in!

Day 85 ~ 165.4
The pause the scale was on is over, at least temporarily.

Great to hear that, env!

mine is paused right now but I am not focused on that--more on working on stopping eating when I feel full and not snacking after. I want to change!

99 days on plan today -- official start 5/15 -- I'm still going to wait it out with you snobrocade...what day are WE on

Hi all!

very low energy--not sure why today.

havent been good about counting calories the last few days just focusing on eating less.

I have one week before vacation--tomorrow will start back on counting cals--I can have a week before I go.

LGW--it is so great to have you here for the long haul!! great job on your weight loss

Hmm--the post I made yesterday did not go thru for some reason. anyway here I am working hard--I had a mental breakthrough earlier today and if I can hold onto it I think it will really help me.


Its about balance. what is the best thing for me to do for myself right now. am I really hungry. what foods do I need--have I had my veggies yet? what exercise is right. stretching as needed. I dont know if it makes sense but thinking about my body and consciousness being balanced gives me a bigger perspective from which to make healthier choices.

Hi all!

whew--its hot!! I am not sure when I will get my walk in today--tho the dog is already bummed out at not having her walk.

So day 55 and I feel very good and very motivated--my new balance perspective really helps me.

Next week will be the big test when I go to my folks house!

Hope you all are doing well!
