    What in the world is a Bob a Job? Sounds dirty

    I am logging my calories so it's always a bit more than I actually ate. For example if I ate small egg I would log large egg and so on.
    Another way around with exercises. I am logging a bit less than I am actually doing. It helps because the weight is falling off me faster. And no I'm not starving. Just a little adjustment so I feel better that I am not "cheating".

    It is nearly impossible for my logs to be less than they should be o:)

    My logging streak is not honest.. at all.. I logged 1 thing a couple of days to keep my streak going.. the authenticity is lost for me.. but I still feel better about it for some reason?

    You do know that the "logging" streak doesn't mean food logging, right? I was devastated when I learned this because I was super impressed when I saw someone had logged (I thought their foods) for 800 days.

    Nope.

    Ha ha. It's something the Boy Scouts do - or used to. Bob A Job week to raise money so offering to wash cars or mow lawns etc. A bob used to be a shilling - or 5p in new money!

    If I eat garbage (like this morning, cupcakes for breakfast, ha!) I'll skimp on decent food not to bust over my calorie goal. Also, some days I don't eat all day, because I"m not hungry, but I"ll add in something on MFP so it doesn't complain about not getting enough.

    The truth of this bothers me. I wish it would record how often you actually log FOOD not just log in. "Wahoo! You logged into another social networking site for the day!!!" -Fail-

    I've been sabatoging my weight loss with alcohol. When Friday hits, all I want is to relax with a few cocktails. I want so badly to lose this last 10 lbs. I need willpower!!

    Working from home means that you can work out on your lunch break and nobody will care if you are sweaty! [/quote]

    YUP! I just went to the gym now for the first time in several months. I can get 45 min which doesn't sound like much but I managed to do 20 min of cardio and their express circuit just to get me back in the game. Soon I will make a plan to target upper body one day, lower the next and see about fixing myself. :)
    Currently back to work in pj pants so I am not in my workout clothes. :) Another bonus.

    I watch shows like "My 600 Pound Life" to feel better about myself.

    Me too! Compared to them, I'm a supermodel! ;)

    The thin mints are the best! I was going to buy some from a woman I go to pole class with, but she stopped coming to class. I guess that's a good thing, b/c I can do some damage with those things!

    I keep snacks in my walk-in closet. I keep them there to not only hide them from my kid who would eat them all, but so that I can get to them quickly. Sometimes, my self control is lacking and I polish off a case of something I have in there like plaintain chips, Larabars, etc.

    I keep candy in my dresser drawer. I don't have kids. I keep them there b/c if it wasn't there, I'd have to walk all the way upstairs to get it. Also, it keeps it out of my direct line of vision.

    GOOD JOB!!!

    I only get 30 minutes for lunch, so I can't do a proper workout...but I can walk or jog around the block twice and get in an extra 4000 steps or so!

    I do the same thing, but I watch "Hoarders" to feel better about how messy my house is. Sometimes it actually motivates me to clean it and throw stuff away !

    I watch both cuz it makes be feel better about myself, too.

    I haven't been able to get below 132lb b/c every time I get to 132.5, I start to self sabotage either eating over my calorie allotment or eating the correct calorie allotment, but not exercising (which means that I'm eating at a surplus and no longer a deficit). This goes on for 2-4 weeks, and then I'm at 136-139lbs.

    I weighed myself today, and I was at 132.5, but I'm not logging it b/c I don't want to psyche myself out. I'm going to make it past that friggin' number!

    I had to laugh at this. I've been stuck at 132 or 132.5 for 6 months. It goes down after my period for a week or two, then I ovulate and it goes back up to 133 or 134. It's like every month when I see 132 I'm so relieved I haven't gained weight (I know the 2 pounds I gain after are water weight), I'm like 'ok I can afford to eat closer to maintenance for a couple days', and during a couple weeks I'm typically not very hungry so I have spare calories for treats, then PMS hits and I get ravenous and destroy my deficit for the month. Every. Single. Month.

    I sometimes ask people for advice when I already know what to do to fix hat ever is going wrong. I sometimes feel like asking advice annoys people.

    I at 1000 calories worth of Starbucks items yesterday.

    I know most of my lack of weight gain is due to my lack of water intake lately.

    We are literally the same person then b/c this has been going on for about 6 months. I consider it a plateau, lol. This is our month!!!

    I have 2 cases of thin mints in my bedroom closet. I ordered them when I thought they were going to be vegan, but we got last year's leftovers. I haven't decided whether to sell them or just dole them out to the kids for lunch snacks.

    My daughter is selling them and that has been the big question--did they change the recipe or have Thin Mints always been vegan?

    No, it's a new recipe. Last year's cookies have whey in them.
