    I'm excited it hear your results! If I remember correctly, you were working on just standing and walking for 15 minutes at a time, just a short while ago. :smile:

    It is amazing how quickly old habits can come back. That is why one day at a time is good - we can start fresh each new day.
    So just for today, saturday
    1. get out for a LONG walk
    2. Low carbs, no sugar today
    3. drink more water
    4. stay positive.
    5. Encourage at least one poster. We are all in this together.

    The most important commitment is the one you make to yourself! The nice thing about this thread is it is very easy to just commit 24 hours at a time. It takes away a lot of the stress. We know you can do this! Welcome!

    1. Stay within calorie limits :) By a long shot but only because my mouth is in so much pain I couldn't eat. :(
    2. Walk the dogs :)
    4. Cardio workout :'( Nope, just took Tylenol PM and slept most the day.

    JFT, 10/14
    So, my SIL is having a party at my house today. I'm not sure I'm going to even be able to be out with everyone. Who doesn't go to a party at their own house?? It's probably a good thing for my diet. LOL. Gotta look at the bright side. Still in some pain. I think I had a reaction to the teeth whitening stuff. Anyway, goals for today:

    1. Stay within calorie limits

    That's it.

    I think something weird must have happened. I've never heard from anyone that teeth whitening actually hurt, just that it was a little unpleasant.
