  • Wow, Ratkity, big commitment! Good for you!
  • I had yet another pop day!! It feels good! Didnt get enough exercise. I took the kids out for a walk but came home after a few blocks..wind was to strong for them.
  • Rat - you continue to amaze me!

    Still POP here - every bite logged. Working on the pound a week mentality this year. Need to find my exercise fire and consistency. Think I'll end January with about 700 minutes - to think two years ago I was at 1500.

    Sez our resident mermaid!! Go girl!

    Logged it all yesterday. Thought I went way over and didn't. Didn't make the best choices last night. Could have had more protein instead of the carbs, but I'm trying not to beat myself up over it.

    Off to get ready for work!

    Hugs,
    Ratkity
  • Day 9 was great!! I'd stumbled a bit and really needed a good, clean day, and got it yesterday. Loved the dinner I made, too.

    So, this is Day 10 and I see myself POP today, too.

    Oh, and yesterday the scale was down a pound! And my clothes are fitting better, so rather than having 3 pairs of pants that fit, I have a fuller set of choices.

    Let's all have a POP day!!
  • Yesterday was another excellent day. Stayed on plan and did my exercise. Today I'm going to figure out what I can bring to a Super Bowl party that won't end up on my a**. Have a great OP day, everyone and go Patriots!
  • You all are doing great!

    I haven't been on plan at all, sometimes through mistakes of calculating, mostly because increased exercise has increased my appetite. Extremely discouraged. Hoping the new 10 days will help psych me into staying within calories.
  • Made it through another day POP! WooHoo!
  • Day 10!!

    And unless I do some serious eating in the next 2 hours, I'll be POP.
    And I made it through a stressful day!
    Tomorrow is another stressful one, but I'm reasonably confident I can start the next 10 days POP!!

    I made it 30 days!!! Tracking EVERYTHING I eat. I wanted to keep it under 1800 calories -- I did that all but 3 days, and none of those was above 2000.

    So, although I need to kick up the exercise, I'm really happy about how I've been doing!!!!
  • Day 10 in the books - bring on the next 10!
  • POP here for me, too: Glad to say I made this whole 10 days. Weight's finally down a little below my pre-Christmas level, so I'm happy with January. February and the next 10 days, here we come!
  • Day 10 was POP!! watch out feb here we come!!
  • See you in the new lifeboat!
