Today I reset my weight. Almost Sept 1st. Time to get serious. Fall is a good time to get really serious.
The holidays will be coming up, but if I can continue, and stay serious until Christmas -- and beyond -- I know how much better I will feel!
I am so far behind reading all the encouraging posts, and the ones you have really committed to taking this one day at a time. Now I am committed again also! And thank you to the ones who have kept this thread going!
So just for today
1. drink lots of water
2. Watch my sugar - keep sugar as low as possible
3. watch my carb count
4. Be positive. Do not let past failings keep me on this path.

Hi all! I want to give this idea a try! So since I usually check MFP late in the evening, I will tweak this a little so it works for me. I will do "just for tomorrow" instead.
Just for tomorrow (9/1):
- I will drink 8 cups of water
Baby steps0 -
9/1 jft
1.Log calories
2. Take breaks outside.
3. Eat a more substantial lunch so I'm not hungry all afternoon
4. Drink 8 glasses of water0 -
I love this concept!!! I have a pretty bad binge cycle...its gotten me to the heaviest I've ever been. And I feel so overwhelmed with the idea that I NEED to lose about 170 lbs or so...and that's so daunting to even type...let alone admit out loud but today is a new day...a new month actually!! And I really want to do this! Maybe it will help me to focus...and not get scared of the long road ahead of me! Please add me, if you'd like....I need all the help and encouragement I can get!! And I'll try to return the favor of course!0

I did SO good all day yesterday, until in the evening. Hubby wanted popcorn, and that was OK, except it got me started grazing all nite. I had bought little candy corns, and kept grabbing a handful. at a time - mindless eating.
So today, I know I need to concentrate more on my nighttime snacking.
SO Just for today.
1. drink water when I want to snack - and wait 10 minutes!0 -
