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!

Hi there! I'm Bridget and I'm new here. Well new again. I had been on here 20 years ago and found great community. Hoping to find again! I'm using an exchange/dietician program to help build a healthy relationship with food. No medication.

Good evening! Diana, thanks for getting the June thread started. Welcome back Bridget! 😁🇺🇸😷👩‍✈️

Good morning, I ended the day yesterday super tired and sored. I woke up early this morning I'm still sored but that is normal with my PsA and fibro, I should feel better as the day goes by. Today is DH b-day and he requested his favorite meal, baked Ziti and carrot cake. We normally go out to eat for b-days but DH travels M-F so he prefer home cooked meals.

Xerai- how are you feeling?
Bridget- Welcome back!
LadyBinger- that sounds like a good plan. I also need to be more organized and start planning my meals again

[ciecie]

Good morning again! Just got home from walking and running errands. Will go for another walk and run errands in a few minutes. 😁👩‍✈️😷🇺🇸

Good Morning, Everyone!

Welcome back everyone!

My update from May. I joined OA on April 1. I have been abstinent for 2 months as of today. The month of May I lost 5.2 pounds. My total loss since joining OA is 15.4 pounds. I am totally amazed. Praise the Lord!

Steps from yesterday: 6,308

Have a Blessed day and stay safe and healthy!

Copied from Crosswalk Devotions for Dieters

June 1

1 Corinthians 13:12
For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known.

One thing would really make dieting easier: Knowing what the results are actually going to look like. When we diet, we have to hold onto some image we have created in our own minds. Perhaps it is an image crafted from an old picture, or a memory of what we looked like so many years ago. Still, there is no tangible goal we can point to and say, 'That is what I will look like when I lose weight.' We have to live in hope of something we want, and hope can be scary. Ask God to help you. He will enable us to believe in what we imagine, even when we can't always see it in reality.

Today's thought: I'll know better why I'm dieting after I'm done!

Good afternoon! Diana, congrats on losing 5.2 pounds! Just got home from walking and running errands. Had lunch when I got home. Will resume doing the laundry in a few minutes. 😁👩‍✈️😷🇺🇸

[LadyBinger]

Congrats Diana that is spectacular progress. I'm about to have my on plan dinner, I've adhered to the program so far but my worst cravings come at night so I hope I can stay strong.

Good evening! Walked to and home from church. Had supper when I got home from church. 😁🇺🇸😷👩‍✈️

Hello June. I’m back

I’ve been exercising almost everyday, but my eating has been on and off track, especially the late night binges.



CeiCie..happy walking. Good job being so consistent.

Dianna..15.4 pounds, that’s so impressive! What do you think makes the difference since you joined the OA?

Muffin.. Hope your soreness goes away soon. Happy birthday to you DH. baked Ziti and carrot cake sounds delicious. You must be a good cook.

Bridget..Welcome back! What is an exchange/dietician program about?

LadyBinger..Did you enjoy your on plan dinner? What’s the name of the program?

[nettnett73]

I can't really explain it. It comes from working the program. My eating was getting worse with each month. It's really amazing.
