Hi, Everyone! Welcome to the Check-In! Let's make it a great month!

I want to welcome everyone to the Daily Accountability Check-In. Our goal is to stay accountable and on track by posting our daily food and exercise choices. All food and exercise programs are welcome. Consistency is the key to reaching our weight loss goals.

Introduce yourself or jump right in and tell us what you have been doing.

Here's to the start of a great month!

Good evening! Thanks for getting the November thread started. 😁🎃😷👻

Good morning! Will have breakfast and work out in a few minutes. 😁🦃😷🍁

Good Morning, Everyone!

I am down 2.6 pounds from October.

I have been struggling with knee pain for a couple months now. I'm going to take a few days off from the extra walking and I need to do some knee exercises. Today I will be hobbling through the house to to do house chores.

Ciecie I think I need some of your knee rehab exercises.

Steps from yesterday: 9,303

Have a Blessed day. Stay safe and healthy!

Hebrews 6:10
For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labour of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.

What a great reward! Robin had never looked so good. All her months of dieting paid off royally. It was beautiful to see the expressions on people's faces when they saw her. She couldn't wait to go out to show herself off. God had certainly blessed her through the rough time of dieting. There were days when she decided it just wasn't worth it. Now, she could hardly believe she ever had doubts. Looking in the mirror, she even surprised herself. She never thought she'd look this good. When we dedicate ourselves to doing things that are right and good to do, God is sure to bless us and reward us for our labors.

Today's thought: Improvement comes with practice. I can even get good at dieting!

Diana. Thank you for starting the November thread. So sorry you're having knee pain.
Ciecie Good morning

I'm steadily gaining weight.it seems I don't have enough will power to say no to junk food. I did finally say no to caffiene in the soda pop though. I'm still drinking diet caffiene free soda, but soon that will change.
I've been in a lot of back and shoulder pain lately. Doctor told me I had pulled a muscle in my lower back and tension in my neck. Ive been stressed out since my surgery and living in Branson but the stress is getting better. I m beginning to enjoy my surroundings. I've gotten to be in the hills during the Fall and watch the trees change colors and see a deer every now and again
When on my way to the doctors office the other day, a young police officer pulled me over to tell me I was speeding through a school zone. He let me go with a warning. Can you believe I was stopped at 31 mph.! However, he told me during school hours the limit was 20 mph. Oh well.
Have a great Fall day.

Good evening! Diana, think you should talk to an orthopedic surgeon about your knee. Had a busy day at home. Will go to church in a few minutes. 😁🦃😷🍁

James 1:2
My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations.

Renee really felt good whenever she had the strength to say no to food that was offered to her. Each time she could refuse eating, it made her feel she'd won a moral victory. Mentally, she kept score. It became a game to see how often she could hold out between defeats. In a strange way, it made her diet enjoyable. She felt she was really accomplishing something that was important. By the end of about four months, Renee was able to defeat just about every temptation that came along. She felt God's pleasure as she grew more able to decline treats. That joy made her diet fly by.

Today's thought: Diets can be fun, especially when they're done!

Good afternoon! Walked to and home from my meeting today. Ran errands when on the way home. Had lunch when I got home. 😁🍁😷🦃

Psalms 126:6
He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.

The groaning was over. The long nights of hunger lay behind. For some strange reason, the diet was getting easier. Finally, Diane's body had gotten the message that snacks and heavy meals were no more. The cravings and cryings of her stomach subsided. It had been a tough war, but Diane felt she had scored a victory at long last. All the weeping was behind, and she felt a wonderful joy. She knew that plenty of tough times lay ahead, but she also knew she could handle them. With God's help, she would make it. The hardest part was behind her.

Today's thought: When I take it one day at a time, the days fall away as fast as the pounds!

I did not feel like driving 40 miles to church this morning in the rain, so i watched the online service.
I did my home exercise last night. But food and cravings are still happening. Sigh

Good evening! Had a busy day today. Will go for a walk and run errands in a few minutes. 😁🦃😷🍁
