Hey everybody, im new today. and I would love to start off with a good challenge! and im sure eating chocolate hearts after losing 14lbs wont be soo bad,lol. Well I would also love to have a buddy who is also on this challenge, so we can communicate and help motivate each other. Hope to hear from Ya'll. Bye!!
brokeneyes u can join us anytime , and yes eating a chocolate heart would taste good ,i am going to try and not eat any chocolate,but i will splerg and go out to eat hopefully.since i have lost my val.goal hopefully i can lose a pound or so more and it won't hurt me too much to eat out.
goalweight, at least i am not the only one whos scale is not working.it drives me nuts.
Welcome brokeneyes - yes, please join us in setting and meeting our goals. (Well, my goal hasn't gone so well, but it kickstarted me, and I'm doing better than I was before!) So today I am feeling a little out of control. I haven't eaten anything too bad yet, but I just want to put stuff in my mouth. I need to be very careful, because my t.o.m. is about to start (usually makes me want to eat like crazy) and because I had such a calorie deficit yesterday compared to the several days before, my body wants to compensate. I can just FEEL it - I've been munchy and even hungry at unusual times today. Ha ha, body. I am doing this on purpose. Please stop trying to compensate, as I know what's good for you more than you do.
Talk to you all later!
Yeah, well, my "funniness" didn't completely work. My body and I both had some victories (against each other) yesterday. I was crazy eating-wise, like I said, and I ate more than I wanted to, but much less than I would have liked to. If I hadn't been trying to be so strong I would have eaten a lot, I think, especially since DH was out of town last night. I went to my dinner for my class, and did okay. I ate salad (with a little dressing) a little bit of pork roast (though none of the fat), a miniscule baked potato(smaller than the palm of my hand), about 10 Cheetos (which, as I've said are my weakness), a bunch of grapes and a half banana. I was able to pass up the ice cream sandwich at the end. At home afterwards it was a slightly different story, and I ate some cashews I shouldn't have, as well as a bit of cheese. I finally realized I was going to keep snacking, so I compromised and popped a few cups of popcorn (stove popper) using less than a tsp of olive oil. It wasn't a victorious day, but I wasn't defeated. Sort of a stalemate. I was tired, but I did walk on the elliptical 30 minutes as well.
Anyway, enough about me - how are you all doing??
well today is a boreing day here,its cold and rainy,and blah.really makes u just want to curl up with a movie and eat popcorn or something.i think i will go to the tanning bed so i can get some vitamin d in my skin and feel better.hope ya'll have a great day.
Well ive lost 3 lbs as of today because of water weight no doubt..but it's still weight!!! Im so exited to find a commuinity that actually does chat everyday and encourage healthy weight loss!
** Dont worry about losing a certain amount of weight in a short amount of time..challenges are great, but as long as you are constantly moving in a positive direction the weight will fall off in time***
Im iN!!!
Hey
