Psalm 37:40 And the Lord shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.
Beth thought the program would never end. It had taken her years to control her weight, and it was still hard to be around scrumptious food for very long without overindulging. All through the evening, heavenly plates of food moved around the room. It was all Beth could do to resist. Whenever the temptation arose, she closed her eyes and quietly prayed to God for strength. It seemed like an eternity, but the evening finally ended, and she had somehow made it through. With a sigh of relief, she said a quick prayer of thanks as she walked to her car.
Hi to all! Just popping in for a quick diary. I've been hovering in the mid 139s for the last week so I'm hopeful that maybe that extra pound will stick this time. I've been much more active this past week so I'm sure that's helping.
Saturday:
Breakfast: yogurt w/ jam and muesli
Lunch: veggie burger, orange juice, 3(!) stroopwafels
Snack: don't think I had one but can't be sure
Dinner: 1.5 small beans and greens burritos, strawberries, ice cream
Exercise: heavy cleaning 45 min, teaching 45 min, biking 70ish minutes, then I got home and my husband wanted to bike to the beach, so there went another 20-30 minutes of biking lol. Needless to say, I more than burned off that nightly ice cream.
Yesterday:
Breakfast: cereal
Lunch: 3 bites of pizza, veggie burger, orange juice, 2(?) stroopwafels
Snack: 1 pack fruit snacks
Dinner: carrot sticks and pesto, strawberries, protein pancakes with maple syrup, 2 cookies
Exercise: 30ish minutes dance
good afternoon! power walked and ran errands this morning. came home and had lunch. will go for another power walk and run errands later on this afternoon.
Diana: I like doing lists/goals. Sometimes they become really elaborate. I think lists can help you with intent, especially if the lists are short. And access to computers I think has really revolutionized one's ability to set goals.
WI saw a bit of a drop but we did not have dinner last night so that was expected.
WO ... well I have a new fitbit to be delivered on Wednesday and I am hopeful this will kick me back in gear, I can really tell I have not been working out. I am bloaty, my back hurts blah blah
Diana and Teri, I really need to make more lists or just set some attainable goals....I am so bad at that.

Nancy - I have tracked my calories every day since October, and it has been a great scorecard to keep me honest.
Teri - good job, white it down and track. Even if you have a bad day - so what? Keep the course and try to enjoy the journey.
Breakfast: bread w/ butter and jam, milk
Lunch: veggie burger, tropical smoothie, 3 stroopwafels... that's the last time I buy those, apparently I can't eat just one of them!
Dinner: bread w/ butter and radishes, pesto chicken w/ roasted kohlrabi, peach ice cream w/ chocolate syrup, beet muffin
So fun to try the kohlrabi from our CSA box! It was SO good. Definitely recommend trying them. I've never had one before and was apprehensive, but ohhhhhh so delicious.
Exercise: 90 minutes ballet class
good night all! watched a special episode of dateline nbc tonight. it was all about those two kids who were missing and recently found dead in idaho. will be shutting down in a few minutes to go to bed.
Ciecie, I don't have the full scoop on those two kids, but such a tragic, sad, sad story. Was it the boyfriend of the lady who killed them? I know they were missing for so long and then found dead. Just plain evil and heart-wrenching.
Usc4valpo, great words of wisdom from you, "Even if you have a bad day.....so what? Keep the course and try to enjoy the journey.
Princess, what is a CSA box?
Took in 1160 calories yesterday and did treadmill with leg weights. Need to work on starting to get humongous lawn mowed today.
