Fell off the wagon yesterday, just didn't feel like trying. Scale is up 2 pounds since Sunday, so I am back to watching my food choices carefully! Don't want that to happen!
Well I re-started the YOAD program ...the 1st two week program from the book. Im down 2.5 this week. Now the first time I did this I think I lost 7 but I am very happy with 2.5. I feel back in control again. I think I needed to clean out the white crap out of my body again.
Come on you two.....we cant quit now!! we need this. Jump right back on that wagon Im waiting for you...
Patti.....you are so right. I did 9 days really good and was walking everyday and then I fell off the wagon this past Wednesday and I am struggling to get back on. Since I don't see a monthly anymore, I think I maybe 'cycling' because the cravings don't go away. Does that make sense?
Hey gals, I'm working on that restart myself. But DH is a challenge - he keeps wanting to by snack foods to have in the house that is pulling me off course.
I think I'll let him have this weekend, and then a Dr. Oz-style purge will occur - everything in the trash, even if unopened! DH gained 10# from the cruise and I gained 5# - nobody needs that!
But on the bright side, I've been having whole oats w/protien powder for breakfasts, and whole wheat pasta with low sugar sauce for lunches.
Hey, let's plan to next week re-start our daily food logs - one thread a week. I think that will help to get us all back on track. I want you all to log *everything* you eat - good or bad - awareness is the first step!
Cakes - hang in there - you remind me of myself in the sense that I get close to a goal and then I start to sabotage myself for some odd reason. You are SO close to wonderland - you can do it! Just buckle down and stick to YOAD basics and you'll get there in no time. Then it will be time to change your ticker and make a new goal!
Patti - good for you - 2.5 is great for a restart! Don't forget about me on that wagon as well!

Well one of my best friends called me last night and he's getting married in 6 weeks and wants me at the wedding no matter what. So boy oh boy do I have a goal now. Seeing my old friends from back home who haven't seen me since 2005 is giving me a whole new lease on this dieting thing. Having lunch now, still on plan and did 60 mins of run/walk combo and will continue to do this until I'm at goal. I know it's going to be hard, but I am so pumped - and I don't expect to make goal in 6 weeks but even 20 pounds will get my self-esteem back so I am going to push for it! I hhope you guys keep me on track too!
Ugh, my lack of planning once again bit me in the butt this week. Lack of planning, busy schedule and a little self saboutage ~ yep I need to regroup and start with a clean slate.
I was feeling so good about myself and my body in just one week of eating this way ~ why can't I just give myself a break and allow myself what really makes me feel good? I really need to kick my self saboutaging habit or I will never truly be happy.
I had to help at a fish fry today for our church..im proud to say I didnt have any for supper!!! I came home and made myslef a small steak andgreek salad. I got in tons of walking at the fish fry so it was a great day!!
Good morning YOADers! It's only 9:35 here but some of you may be onto lunch by now, so have a great Sunday! I'm still on track and slowly my weight is coming off! Woo hoo!
Happy Monday. Scale is loving me when I follow YOAD properly and exercise my butt off! Woo hoo. Just changed my weight loss goal to Thanksgiving instead of Christmas.
Made it through breakfast and lunch, dinner should be a snap! I saw 199 at the gym after my workout but I won't celebrate it until my weigh in tomorrow when I hopefully see it again!
