Did you sabetoge yourself this weekend?
Last Monday I started a thread about how poorly I do every weekend. I found a number of people in the same boat so we decided to start a support group. Here is the first check in after the weekend. How did you do? Still not as good as I could do, I didn't do too bad. Took my two year old to the drive-in movie theatre for…

girls night
So tomorrow night I've got all my girlies coming over without our men or children for some drinks and fun. Of course 95% of them smoke. As most of you probably know by now, I've been smoke free for 15 weeks. Well everytime I get together with people I'm afraid of slipping, so far I've done awesome, but last week I went to…

4 years off the scales...
Today I was brave. I got on the scale for the first time since I was 17 years old. Now, I knew that I would've gained weight, I was hoping that it wasn't more than 5 or 10 lbs... apparently in the past 4 years, I've managed to pack on 30lbs. I was a rail in high school. Now I will say I'm much more muscular, but it still…

Chasing the wagon
because I totally fell off this weekend! I went home to Miami because my cousin just returned from living in Argentina for the past two years. And because he hasn't had Cuban food in those two years, we had quite the spread.... Oh, the shame!!

I really liked this so I thought I would share it with you a
Recovering from a cheat day/off day: 1. Drink Water If you drank too much then you're dehydrated. Drinking water will help you feel better and flush out some of those toxins. If you ate too much you're probably bloated and retaining water from all the salt and sugar. Drinking water will help release stored water and…

Starting ALL over again!
So, as many of you have probably read I have been REALLY struggling to get going with my weight loss. I have been a member here for at least 2 months now and have GAINED weight! :sad: I set a goal for myself the 1st of May. I wanted to lose 30 pounds in 4 months. Not too difficult, right? Well, for most maybe not, but for…

HELP - I'm addicted to Mexican food!
Someone help! I ADORE salsa, as well as the chips that move that salsa straight into my mouth. I also love Mexican food. My extended family always meets up after church on Sunday for lunch at our favorite local Mexican restaurant. Other than reigning in on the amount of chips I eat, what can I get that is low cal (and…

at a standstill
I guess we all get discouraged at times. Especially when the scale is at a standstill. I've been counting calories since Feb. 23rd and have lost 29 lbs, but this entire month have only lost 4 lbs. I know I could be exercising more and have had days where I have way too many calories, (i try to stick with 1200), but still I…

over on carbs. Again.
Sigh. I'm so bad. Bread is the worst. I got this sour dough homemade bread at the grocery store for these amazing sandwiches that we had a couple nights ago and there the extra bread was sitting and tomorrow it would no longer be good and so...I ate it. And am at -22 carbs. And I can't exercise because my husband is…

Ew. I'm disgusted!
I have no one to vent to, so why not run to my mfp pals! Today was absolutely horrible. Not only did I eat burger king.. I also ended up going to Dairy Queen for a "700 calorie.. SNACK". I've been working out & improving myself for over 4 weeks now, & I'm feeling no change. At times I really want to give up & throw in the…

I have an confession
As you all know I am trying to gain weight in a healthy manner. Believe or not being too thin is bad too. Anyway these past couple of days I have not been eating too healthy. I am trying to get back on track but it is hard. The bad thing about also besides putting all those unhealthy fats and sugars in my body is I…

Progress Pages
This is my on-line journal. Somehow, putting it "out there" seems like it will help me stay accountable. Goals for this first week with MFP (based mostly on the stuff I have gleaned from MFP folks): 1. Eat at least every three hours -- keep that blood sugar stable and keep those cravings away 2. Eat ALL my assigned…

Look, I'll be honest: My head knows I am doing great. So why am I not happy? I am now wearing a size 10 and I'm 31 pounds lighter than 5 months ago. So why am I not happy? I've got increased energy and stamina, and I go to the gym 4-5 times a week. SO WHY AM I NOT HAPPY!!!! GRRRRRRRRR :explode: :explode: :explode: I think…

Been off the straight and narrow
Hi All Well, I have to admit that I have strayed from the path of calorie counting. Since returning from my holiday to Florida in March, I have not been online or sticking much to my eating plan, maybe I just decided 'what the heck', I aint' really sure why, maybe I thought I could keep the weight loss going without…

I sabotage myself every weekend
Why is it that I can do so well Monday through Thursday and then do so poorly Friday night and the rest of the weekend? My husband noted that if I could just do better on the weekends then I wouldn't have to work so hard the rest of the week to make up for it. He meant well and is completely right. I know I can have a good…

bread
:bigsmile: GIVING IT UP! IT HELPS IF I LET PEOPLE KNOW THAT I'M DOING THIS!!! I can't give up all carbs because of everything that I do. But, I think the bread that I eat is making my bloated and causing me to overeat, even though I work out a lot! Help keep me going! Thanks and good luck to everyone out there!
