Hi folks!!! I have been busy and haven't had time to do the personals for a few days.
Last week I was really struggling....I had two binges and overate one evening.
This isn't good. I sat down and thought about why is this happening....I think maybe it's a culmination of frustsration over health issues. I felt physical pain in my foot and back, the meds were giving me a tummy ache and I felt like..enough is enough. My usual MO is to head into the food...and I did that several times. Thankfully, today I feel better - I've planned for a healthy day. I am going to not just keep count of my calories...I'll go back to the old way...calories, fats, sat. fats, carbs, cholesterol. It makes it real to me. Hopefully, that will help.
I got my foot wrapped by the doc and I'll try to keep a positive outlook. I'll try to ease into my foot and ankle brace. Good grief!! I just want to feel good!!!
My plans for today:
storytelling with the seniors this am

breakfast - lf cheese on ww toast, 1/2 banana, 1t. natural pnb

Math - so glad you started the accountibilty thread!!
Glad to hear you had no overeating.
That's great. Top of the calorie range is OK...that's why we have a range. Being hopeful is so good...glad to hear it.
Mj5 - reunion...Fun! It's a good incentive, yes. You have a good plan today and I am so glad to hear that your knee is feeling a bit better.
Purple - It's wonderful you are in the good "zone"...I love when that happens. I love you PMA today too!!
cckayac - good plan for today.
Four workouts this week sounds like a good amount and doable.
Good job with the calories!
schmoodle - I think we need to experiment with different foods we like..to see if we can fit them in our plan. Just count in what you ate and carry on! Hope your back feels better.
Rhonda - Hip Hip Hooray on your weight loss!
Good luck today...hope your first day in your new position goes well.
Tell us about it if you have a chance.
Texmama - tell me about your President's tree.
