today was my break day from the gym...chosen because i knew my day was filled with work and meetings...and trying not to drive home in the slush until they plowed our streets...i worked all day from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m. with two small half hour-ish breaks....made hamburger stroganoff for dinner...was hungry today, ate at work more than i should have...calories at 1140 plus two saucers of stroganoff...been trying to keep my sugar low because it crept up over thanksgiving ...im doing calorie counting still, working out and trying to stay away from sugar...tomorrow will hit the gym again, nothing going on in between work shifts tomorrow

Morning everyone :wave:
I woke up to snow in my driveway :fr: We usually DO NOT get snow until January--if that! :yay: I LOVE snow!! Today's Plan STAY OP!! DH is off work and he has already asked to go out to eat for breakfast :nono: NOT happening! Enjoy your Tuesday--Eat some negative calorie food today, like celery. Watch your Sodium & DRINK some water!! Your body will THANK YOU ;) |
Morning,
I stayed pretty well OP. Ended up at 1500 calories and 2.5 mile walk. Today's plan No walk; yucky beyond belief out there. Bfast Eggs Sausage Spinach Tomato Lunch Shrimp with sweet chili sauce Salad with 1/2 of weggies Dinner Beef tenderloin Salad with 1 pound of trimmings :) Cal 1200 |
Good Morning everyone, Preparing my mind to have lunch with some people I don't want to have lunch with. They are big eaters all, and never met a carb they didn't love.
I'm preparing for the comments about having lost 15lbs, and "try this" "this is really good" ugh. I hope I stay resolved rather than give in. I Will Take Care of Myself! is my mantra. Blustery out, but will try to get at least a mile walk in when I get home. Have a great day. Have a marvelous day. |

Gotta love friends!! |
I'm waiting for the towels to dry so I can start baking. I've been craving Rocky Road Squares and I thought it would be good to make them for an 'event' {I always do better that way!}, so I'm making them for tomorrow's Bible study preperation day {we have a snack time, :o}, then I signed up to take a dessert to the Bible study monthly luncheon on Thursday. I suppose its too much to hope that I can make one thing for both??? But I have a quick backup dessert just in case.
Kickboxing/abs as well as housecleaning for today. I feel like I have a huge to-do list and I'm sitting around waiting on towels to dry, but it gives me a chance to check in. For Love, stay strong! It will be over soon! Sum, I like that you plan ahead. Hopefully, that will rub off on me. Krystal, we barely got any snow and it didn't stick. |
You know those cartoons where the person slips on a banana peel, flys up in the air then lands flat on their back?? Apparently that happens in real life, too, no banana peel needed. Fortunatly, I landed on my butt and there's a lot of padding there so I didn't break anything. However, I was already cold and now I have a icepack on my hip, but did I mention that nothing was broken and that's the important thing!
I don't believe I'll be working out or cleaning house today, either. |
K9O, I'm sure you know how it goes at these things.
Patchwork, So sorry about your fall, but am glad nothing is broken. Hope you are not bruised. Thanks for the encouragement, I did really well at lunch. Actually, no one said anything about my weight loss this time, but there sure was a lot of food. I had one of the barbeque drumsticks I brought, a heaping of veggies, and a whole wheat bun(roll) with butter The most high calorie thing I had was some sugared nuts, so I managed to keep my total to about 800 cals/40carbs. I ate slowly, ignored anyone who said "did you get [this or that]" For dinner, not sure, maybe a bowl full of oatmeal and canned fruit 350 cals/35carbs? Snack will be more yogurt or whole wheat crackers and cheddar cheese Breakfast was yogurt, under 200 cals |
krystal i tried one of your recommendations today at the gym....instead of alternating minutes at 5-5.5 mph i slowed it back down to 4.6 which is where i warm up at jogging...and did two minute stretches of that...so walk at 3.0 1 minute, jog at 4.6 2 minutes, alternating til i hit 30 minutes...it was reallyyyy hard and im trying to teach myself to take deeper breaths while jogging, it seems to stave off the asthma attacks...and while i didnt have an attack while jogging, i felt like i never really caught my breath the whole time....after 30 minutes i slowed it back for good to 3.0 and gradually increased the incline up to 10, did 3 solid minutes at 10, felt like my legs were gonna collapse, and slowly dialed it back down for a total of 10 minutes at an incline....5 minutes of cooling down, slowing the 3.0 down to 0.6 and i was done
menu today so far: oatmeal with a few nuts/dates, one mini bagel - 300 calories sugar free mocha - 170 calories treadmill says i burned 260 calories (felt like more LOL) time to work with my students for the next 5 hours...then home to make dinner, help set up the christmas tree, and take cousin adam who's staying with us to meet him mom on the ferry |
Tues Nov 29
B= 2 c milk vits, L= turkey sand, 1/2 can peaches D= chili, 2 cornbread S= 5 or 6 Rocky Road squares E= none Right= Taking phone outside with me. If I had really hurt myself I could have called for help! Not eating RR Squares as I was making them! Only had some as I was cutting/boxing them for tomorrow. Wrong= Falling down and going boom! Eating 5-6 squares instead of 2-3! Regret=Not taking asprin sooner. Not eating enough in the morning. Hopefully tomorrow will be better and I won't be too sore! |
Hi guys/ladies/Larry :wave:
Today was an AWESOME day! Pumpie Pie Liqueur Coffee, Egg Omelet:268 1/2 Grilled chicken Spud w/Sour Cream and Salsa: 333 Pumpkin Pie Liqueur Coffee: 144 12oz Merlot, 1/2 Grilled chicken Spud w/Sour Cream and Salsa: 618 Total: 1363 Water: 48 oz :fr: No Exercise: :nono: Although I didn't exercise today, I truly had a GREAT day! |
PP: WoW! Sounds like you had an eventful day! I hope you feel better tomorrow. Praying for you, gf :)
Kristiina: I need your food for the week!! Keep up the excellent work!! Alaskan: I forgot to ask you, How is your breathing while running? I would suggest a 1step, 2step, 3step inhale thru the nose and on the 4th step, exhale forcefully thru your mouth. It can be difficult at first, but many beginner's find this technique rhythmic and easy once they get the hang of it. They do not feel as short of breath. LoveofSelf: Great job sticking with your guns at the party! |
193 again today. No move to the scale. Maybe next week.
Breakfast: Slim Fast shake - strawberry 2 turkey sausage links 1 cup broccoli and cauliflower Calories: 310 Lunch: turkey bologna/2% American cheese sandwich 1 cup broccoli and cauliflower 1 cup nonfat plain Greek yogurt 3/4 cup mixed berries 1/8 cup sugar-free syrup Calories: 410 Snack: 13 cups air-popped popcorn olive oil spray Calories: 260 Dinner: 1/2 cup canned pink salmon 1 cup broccoli and cauliflower 1/4 cup black-eyed peas Calories: 295 Snack: 1 sugar-free caramel pudding Calories: 60 Calorie Total: 1335 |

I am not doing a very good job keeping up this week! I am in a little slump attitudinaly (is that even a word?), but it too shall pass, just hormones messing with me.
My thanksgiving gain is not wanting to budge very quickly but I know that is hormones too. Darn hormones. I have been much better with my calories and food choices the last couple days, so that is a step in the right direction. I was getting used to that "quick ad calories" button over the weekend. That is not a good habit! Today is Day 4 of P90X and I was hoping to get some cardio in too but I have to see if I have the energy. Anyone else feel drained with PMS? I think it is my worst symptom, aside from the moodiness and munchies that is, ha. I don't have the mental energy to do personals right now, but I am reading and keeping up and enjoying everyone's comments. I will try again later. |
JO: :hug: I'll beat TOM up for you! He's a bully! :hug:
|
I'm really impressed with how well I'm feeling today. I expected to be 'walking funny' based on how bad I hurt yesterday, I"m sure the heating pad and hot soak had a lot to do with it.
|
Thanks for the encouragement everyone.
We all seem to be doing considerably well despite setbacks and obstacles. :cool: The scale soon WILL move in our favour. Being able to visit this thread is a big part of my journey. The things I'm able to talk about here because of the protection of the electronic wall really helps, and I know we are all on this journey. I feel a bit like a water filled baloon today, so there is obviously an imbalance. i'm drinking lots of water, yet I'm still dry when I go potty. I had a tablespoon of olive oil in addition to what I usually have on my salad. hopefully, that will help. Breakfast: carmel macchiato coffee, blueberry greek yogurt. 275 cals Planned lunch: cottage cheese, two egg cheese omlet toast, geeen salad, veggies 600 cals Dinner: 1 can Tuna in green salad, a little pasta 300 cals Snacks: yogurt/ macchiato coffee/ wheat crackers/cheese Have a great day everyone. |
good morning...i work really early so im here at work....i manage a before and after school childcare program at an elementary school...so i work for an hour or so and then come back near the end of the school day and work til 6 p.m....its 7 a.m. right now...i have a regular day today, which means i'll go home soon, eat something, head to the gym around 10, then head back to work around noon...tonight i have a board of directors meeting after work....i serve on the local board for a national early childhood eduction organization

where is everyone??? lol (even though ive been absent for like 4 months lol)
i did another 45 minutes on the treadmill this morning, with a half hour jogging intervals for 2 minutes each again this time...it wasnt as bad as yesterday and i tried krystal's suggestion of the breathing on 3 steps and that seemed to help, esp during the last minute of each interval when my breathing was getting difficult...i then walked 10 minutes at an incline and got out 6 minutes at 10% incline this time instead of the 3 minutes yesterday and again it didnt seem as bad as yesterday....i wont be online until about 830 p.m. which to everyone else is closer to midnight because i'm way up here on alaska time (Alaska time runs on duct tape and extra-tuf boots) |
Alaskan: You're hilarious!! :lol: I'm glad the breathing technique helped! I tried to find a good vid for you to follow, but I was unsuccessful!
LoveOfSelf: I am with you on visiting the forum! I don't think I would be as successful as I a without someone to talk to--even if it is online. I used to be a member of TOPS and that was a great encouragement. PP: I'm so glad you are not sore today! I hope you were able to get some exercise in today ;) AFM: I decided on getting a MacBook Pro to replace my once trustworthy Vaio. So far, I like it. It takes a little adjustment, but I'll do just fine on it. Hey, if anyone can get our hospitals med admin program, you can pretty much get any of them! :rofL: |
I had another fabulous day today :carrot:

One year ago today I began this journey.
One year ago today, I weighed 230# and I decided enough was enough and I got on my treadmill and ran 2 miles (veeeeerrrry slowly). One year ago today, I had no idea what my plan was and how I was going to lose the weight, but I knew I had to do it. One year ago today, if you had told me I would still be at it a year from then, I probably would have laughed in your face. One year ago today, I still couldn't find anything in my closet I wanted to wear, but it was the opposite, everything was too snug, I hated that. One year ago today, I got out of breath going the two flights from the basement to the upstairs carrying laundry, now I trot up while tightening my tush for a little extra burn. There is so much more, but I think you get the picture. It is pretty surreal to me that I have stuck to this for a year. Of course, I have had my ups and downs, but here I am still battling. I never would have dreamed it would take me this long to lose the weight. Honestly, by my calculations, I thought I would be done in the beginning of October and I think that has been the hardest part for me, but I just keep making the best decisions I can, and getting back up when I stumble. My goal for the next year is to be able to say very similar things next year, but by next year I had better be at goal!!!!! I will take some measurements today and post some of my stats to get them down in black and white and give me the little boost I need right now. |
Jo, congratulations on all that you have accomplished in the past year! Great job!
|
congratulations Jo!!!
|
I want to make a detailed, personalized post, but I am TOO SLEEPY :faint:
I think I will take a nap and try this day a little later. I am soooo NOT a morning person! JO: I will send u an IM in a bit, but :hug: I acknowledge the struggle!! 1 yr later, you ARE glad you started a yr ago!! |
Sorry I haven't checked in, in awhile! I just got back from a business trip that really was hard. I had to eat out with my work colleagues and sometimes we'd end up at restaurants without a single vegetable on the menu! :?: Thankfully, breakfasts and lunches were manageable and I could eat pretty on plan for those meals at least. For lunches I would eat a huge green salad+fish to try and compensate for the horrid dinners. The good news, though? After 3 days of this business trip AND a flight (that almost always makes me gain a few lbs due to water retention) I'm still 172lbs on the scale. :carrot: I'm really, really hoping that will translate into a loss in a few days. :crossed:
My waist has also been measuring a lot closer to 31.5 than 32" so I'll take that too. :D Oh, and my parents are arriving tomorrow!!! :woohoo: We'll certainly be eating out more because of that but since they're visiting us we'll still be able to direct them towards healthy restaurants and we'll get extra child care=more swimming. I'd love to get out of the 170's by the end of this month, I have no clue if that's a realistic goal or not, but one can dream, right? ;) |
Jo - TOM always wears me out the first couple days
Sorry I haven't checked in recently. I actually saw scale movement down on Saturday, then again Sunday. However, now that I am back to work, that scale will go back to a stagnant hold :lol: I am trying to catch up on the posts, Jo's is the one that stood out cause I went "That's me!"... I will catch up on personals later though :D Been super busy with kids, specialists, doctors, medicines, work, home, errands, etc... so really trying to fit everything in. Hugs to all!!! Alaskan!!!! I haven't seen you in a few months!!! I will have to read through your posts and see how you are doing :) Great to have you!!!! |
Hello everyone,
Jo, you have come through much, congratulations.:carrot: It is December 1st and last time I checked, a couple of days ago, I was 3lbs off target. I don't want it to be 4lbs. I have always exrcised, all my life I've been fairly active and outdoorsy, even when I was very ill, and with the exception of my big belly, I'm fairly muscular, so it's not for lack of exercise. I cannot do a lot of the things I used (far too may surgeries) to but I know I'm no sloth. I hope when I weigh myself on Saturday, there will be movement of that needle in my favour. I have an electronic scale, but dislike it, mainly because of all the other non weight numbers. I've had my BMI professionally checked, and even at my highest wt, I was in the overweight not obese. My first goal weight, even thought it is about 12 lbs off from the "insurance chart normal" is where I was at my happiest. Reminding myself that I haven't been doing this for very long and to be patient with myself (and the scale :)) I feel pretty good today, I had a good day on plan yesterday, and so far so good now. Tried to sleep in this morning because last night was not as restful as I would have liked (not uncommom to have a couple of bad nights even on melatonin) Breakfast: macchiato coffee, Lunch: one eg cheese omlette (in the moode for ommlettes I suppose) toast, cheesy pasta and green beans. Dinner? Last night I substituted baked squash for the pasta, glad I did. Will do the same tonight, along with baked chicken breast . Snack: greek strawberry yogurt or banana shake Wishing everyone good results. |
Okay, I think I need to join all of you. Weight loss for me is slow as molasses in winter (mmmmmmm, molasses!) I too have lived through the world's longest plateau. And right when I think I've figured it out (as evidenced by a brief but stellar drop in weight), my body puts the breaks on the whole thing and does it's very best to take it all back.
I AM SO FRUSTRATED!!!! So, this is what I'm doing now, and why... 1. Paleolithic Diet - I try to avoid all grains, legumes, dairy, sugar and processed foods. I try not eat out too. When I stick to the Paleo Diet, I feel really good. I'm a type 2 diabetic, PCOS, 50 and menopausal and have food sensitivities, so taking on this diet has helped me feel a lot better. I sleep better (when I sleep), I have more energy, no more brain fog, and my cravings have greatly diminished. When I venture off this discipline, I fall right back to feeling like crap. And then everyone around me hates me! I had to get rid of everything in my house that doesn't support this way of eating, because I can't rely on my willpower to make it happen. But I can rely on my natural laziness to keep me from going to get burgers, potatoes, sweets and fried food. 2. I eat a minimum of 25 gm of fiber a day, drink lots of water and I take magnesium. Keeps things moving on through! 3. Intermittent Fasting - The Paleo Diet is about how I feel, but I didn't lose any weight doing it alone. With IF, I can stick to eating only when I'm hungry. I had a really good look at when I was actually hungry, and it's always between 1 pm and 9 pm. So I eat only during that eight-hour window. It helped me to cut calories at first, and I dropped around 15 lbs. fairly quickly. But when I'm not on top of this eating pattern, I tend to overeat more and the weight loss slows waaaaaayyyyy down. Or goes the other way. 4. I do Pilates, five days a week. I love it! It makes me feel really good. I don't lose weight with Pilates, but my joints are working better, I'm moving around better, and this keeps my mental state in a very positive place. 5. I participate in EBT (Emotional Brain Training) - This is a method of working through strong emotions to help me find joy and peace more easily. When I work the steps, I feel great! When I don't, I get caught up in the stress of daily life and I start eating to numb the hard stuff. 6. Good sleep hygiene - I have sleep apnea and have to use a CPAP to get a good night's sleep. When I don't sleep well, I am sluggish all day and I eat for energy in order to stay awake. Before I was tested for the apnea, I ate all the time! Very shortly after I started sleeping better with the CPAP, I stopped gaining weight because I just stopped eating so much. So I try to stay on top of adequate regular sleep. It's really my first defense in the weight loss gain. 7. I divorced myself from all the toxic people in my life and got new, supportive friends - Oh my lord! This was like the best thing I ever did for myself. The toxic people are really angry with me. I've even had to put blocks on phone numbers. But that's okay. I'm much happier now, less stressed, and overeating much less. MUCH less. 95% of the people I am in contact with on a regular basis are there to support my mental, emotional and physical health goals. 8. I am factoring my calorie intake according to my goal weight RMR - I'm a tall woman, 5'11". I currently weigh 296 lbs. According to an online calculator, my RMR for a sedentary activity level is 2449 calories. When I subtract 500 calories from that, 1949 calories, I still gain weight at that caloric intake. My goal weight is 173 lbs. The RMR for that is 1807 calories. That's about the caloric intake at which I maintain my current weight. So, I set a daily caloric range for myself. I keep calories below 1807 everyday, but actually shoot for 1307 calories a day. At that level, I actually do lose weight. There are still a few days I eat more than 1807 calories. But if I mostly stick to my plan, the weight comes off. Still very, very, VERY slowly, but I'm moving in the right direction. So that's the plan for now. I have ADD too, so I am constantly tweaking and changing up things. Who knows what I'll do next week. When I lose focus, I take a day to do a water fast (helps me clean out the crap) and then go back to this plan. I seem to be able to stick to it for about four days before things start falling apart again. I get bored, I want to eat other stuff, my kids want burgers or spaghetti, I have cocktails with friends and fall into a platter of appetizers face first...I am my own worst enemy! Good to find you all here. Looking forward to getting to know you. |
Welcome geoblewis!

RFF: We used to eat out all the time--at least 3-5x/week. In April, I knew I had to give that up if I wanted to be successful on this journey. I still miss going out to eat. I really hate cooking every single day!
Hi Star :) Glad to see you. Hope you have an awesome weekend planned. LoveofSelf: Did you start in November or did you just join 3FC in November? How long have you been on your weight loss journey? Geoblewis: :welcome2: That takes much willpower to do the Paleo Plan. I don't know if I am disciplined enough for that. It's unfortunate that so many of us seem to lose soooo slowly, but at least we can learn together. It sounds as if you know yourself very well. I had to :lol: about #7. Yeah, toxic people pretty much SUCK! AFM: I have pretty much been in non-productive mode all day. I HATE that! I did manage to do laundry and get 2 large bags of clothes together for Goodwill. I have to get to the market tomorrow and Saturday is the BIG Marathon race in the city. I missed the deadline for signing up for the Memphis Grizzly House 5K--they were sold out! My nursing friend told me I could join their team and run the 1/2 (13.1 miles) :rofl: IS she SERIOUS??? A 10K maybe, but I'm not prepared for a 1/2 atm! I am going to see some friends race. I love the energy and atmosphere! Today's Menu FF Cheese Omelet, Mandarin Oranges, Ezekiel Bread w/1 tsp Sunbutter & 1 tsp Agave, Coffee: 395 Homemade Cornbread and Turkey Lentil Soup :drool: , Zucchini Nut Bread, Frozen Raspberries: ~681 Total: 1076 I ate lunch at 3:30p.m.. So, I am really not hungry atm. I may eat another bowl of stew later without the cornbread. I really just want to go back to bed! WTH?? TOM is gone and now I'm cranky and tired! It started off as a ravenous day, but when I napped, the cravings went away! Go Figure!! I didn't even exercise today. That is more than likely the reason I am so sluggish! |
K9O, I started counting calories in early October and lost the first 10lbs before I came across 3FC when I did a search on calorie requirements. I lurked for nearly two weeks before posting.
Funny about sorting for Goodwill, I'm always weeding out things, whether clothing or other things for Hospice or other charity shops. I like to be organized even when other aspects of life are chaos! :) |
Thurs Dec 1
B= 2 c milk, vits, toast/straw jam L= Potluck luncheon, 2 sausage rolls.

MyTurn, good job on the weightloss. Running, have a nice visit with your parents. |
PP: :hug: Sounds like a lot of overly processed simple carbs today for you. Strive to make better choices tomorrow!
|
I lost a pound!!! After over a month long stall!! :woohoo: :woohoo: :woohoo:
The best part? TOM isn't set to show up for a long time so here's hoping there are more to follow. :D I so want to be out of the 170's soon... patchworkpenguin- :hug: Sounds like a rough day but the good thing? You can always get on right back track the next day. Hang in there, we've all had days like that. K9Owner- I'm funny, I actually enjoy cooking quite a bit so I think business trips annoy me that much more because I really feel stuck in food choices that I don't want to make. I actually feel so relieved to be back home now and back in my own kitchen. :lol: geoblewis- Welcome! Keep up the good work and I'm sure you'll see the results soon. ;) forloveofself- good luck on the scale tomorrow! ItsMyTurn- Good luck with everything going on for you! Congrats on the drop even if you saw a stall afterwards. |
