    Hi all!
    I have been missing for a few days, but certainly not quitting.

    My list is short for today, but I want to at least accomplish these two.

    Tues 7/28/15
    1. I will eat only my planned food - no late night snacking.
    2. Kitchen closes at 9:00 for me.

    Have a great day!

    This is such an amazing idea.
    I haven't been using MFP for a very very long time, and I am trying to recommit to it. I'm getting bigger by the day and need to act now before it gets out of hand.
    Just for today.....
    I want to log everything I eat! (Babysteps)

    I start everyday off tracking planned meals etc and by afternoon am eating everything g in sight. Heavier than ever but I will do this. Just for today... I will..
    1. Decide that I am stronger than my love for food and using it as a tool to reduce stress..
    2. Begin to walk again and work for those 10,000 steps.
    3. Stay off the scale for a while.
    4. Stick to today's meal plan.

    Just start posting. When you come back, MFP takes you just below your post. Scroll up to see what you wrote. I usually quote the previous post before posting a new one. Welcome! o:)

    I am really not doing great--very stuck. I start fine and by late afternoon I find some excuse to give in/give up. I know if I just had a "successful" day or two, the motivation and stick-with-it would come back.

    JFT:
    1. Stay under cal limit
    2. Exercise 30+ min
    3. Drink 3+ pints water/tea

    I, like so many of you, do great all day long, only to eat everything in site in the evenings! So frustrating. But, today is a new day, and I'll just keep trying!
    1. write everything I eat
    2. Tonite -- when I want to eat, drink a large glass of water, and a large glass of milk, and wait 30 minutes!!


    I discovered last nite that the glass of milk stopped my eating! So I am going to try this again tonite!

    hope you all have a great day!
