Good afternoon, Becksters!
I have been in full rebellion this weekend. Perhaps not FULL... I have exercised and tracked my transgressions in MFP. FULL rebellion probably would have been stagnating inert in front of the television with a beer & bag of chips ("DH, would you bring me another? I might register some steps if I move.") and not tracking. Nevertheless, a very un-Becklike Fri night & Sat in which I ate foods that were not good choices, ate too much of everything, and did so standing up in several instances.
And... I don't feel all that remorseful. I'm back on track but don't have my usual sense of depression and, "OMG, why did I do THAT?" Not sure if that's good or bad.
MaryAnn - Congrats on Day 19 of your foodplan. Happy birthday to your 50 yo DH (youngster).... Hope you had a great time celebrating, and excellent planning on the veggies/no-cupcake.
IBelieveinMe2 - Yeaaaa!
So happy you're happy and gettin' your mojo back. I'm so proud of you for hanging in there and continuing to seek it out and getting support.
BeverlyJoy - Your "dumb phone" comment cracked me up.
I have what is in theory a "smart phone", but sometimes I am compelled to put it in its place with, "Shut up. You are just a dumb phone, no matter what Apple says you are, and you're not the boss of me." Thanks for posting the Beck advice. Despite ignoring it, I am nevertheless appreciative.
GardenerJoy - Good luck as you seek the plan that works for you. Thought the 50s housewives (next reality show?) thought was funny, but I know what you mean. When the direction isn't clear, everything seems annoying.
Rosebud "Wig"/"Wog", I'm good with any of them. Wigging out while wogging. Loved the "gargantasalad" and waytaplan! I'm also impressed with your water consumption--I do okay with that, but could do a lot better. Thank you for motivating me in so many ways. Also great on resisting the M&Ms from all comers. The Y also has a great plan for when you travel (A.W.A.Y.) to use other Ys at no cost. Enjoy it all!
onebyone - Big congrats on 250!!!
Also that Looloo's loo habits are improving.
BillBE - I'm so glad that Boston is back to some sort of normalcy. It's different, but I lived in San Francisco during the 1989 earthquake; and it took a long time before I felt fully safe anywhere. I trust that you'll find every day gets better.
Spanky - Big credit for recognizing what wasn't working for your body and adjusting accordingly. Very Beck. She talks about making those adjustments to the food program you choose. Nice job.
Ann (NewLifeStyle) - Yea for walking & OP-ness! We've had snow off & on over the past few days here too. C'mon MAY! At least the lake is now entirely open water, and a large number of the intrepid even have their piers in.
Happiness, all!
