Transitioning from day shift to night shift
I am starting a new job and the shift will be from 7p-7a. This will be my first night job ever so I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on eating habits when you're having to work all night and sleep all day. I'm not sure how hungry I'll be at night while at work but I'm thinking not too much. That leaves coming home at…

Cheating After Bad Weigh-ins
Okay, here's a problem I have and I wonder if anyone shares this with me. Whenever I weigh myself, and find that I haven't lost a pound (or God forbid, gained a pound or ounce or two), I just say, "Screw it!". And then I cheat. I get so disappointed after working SO HARD to count every ounce of food that enters my mouth,…

my biggest problem
My biggest problem is when I eat something that I feel ruined my diet, so I just give up that day and eat whatever and I tell myself that I will start tomorrow. I also have a problem with logging a cheat, so also when I do cheat I just give up because i feel that everything has to be perfect and when its not then I give up…

Weighed In Today
Hi everyone....well it was my week two weigh in today. I lost 2 pounds (2nd week on MFP). I should be happy right but for some reason I seem sad and disappointed. I worked very hard to lose this week and really hoped for about 4 to 5 pounds as I know my calorie intake is a lot less than in previous weeks and months and I…

They give you the sauce…

please cheer me up!
I am devastated. Tonight at basketball training we were playing five on five and in a tussle for the ball my finger dislocated, breaking a piece of bone off the volar plate in the meantime. I now have to see a surgeon to make sure that everything will heal properly and to get a special splint fitted while they see if they…

3 weeks
So it's been 3 weeks now without a smoke, and I was really worried that I would gain weight. I have been really careful about not replacing nicotine with food and have not gained 1 single pound. And the last couple of days i've been working out and finding my sweat pants falling down, I've had to tighten the drawstring. I…

Tooting my horn
Today I pulled out a pair of size 10 jeans that I haven't been able to wear in over 2 years....decided to try them on to gauge my progress (for me that's easier than using a measuring tape). I'm wearing them!!:drinker: If I weren't planning to work out later, I'd probably wear them all day. I LOVE being able to wear…

Finally below 178!
Ok! My first week is under my belt and I have lost 4 pounds this week. I have been between 178 & 182 for the last year or so and with this plan, I've finally broke through the ugly plateau I had been riding on for a while!! It wasn't easy and I do admit, some days, my stomach growled so loud, my whole office could hear it!…

4 months later....
And I am now officially 2.5 lbs heavier than when I started. *sigh* I am broke but I am contemplating going back to the money-taking Weight Watchers. Seemed like the only thing that helped m e in the past but then again I think its the whole entering in your food intake that just doesn't do it for me. Having to log in…
