    Review of Monday
    Hmmmm not brilliant. .. and surprisingly good given I trapped a nerve in my shoulder at bootcamp this morning and have wanted to eat my way through the pain!
    In line with net calorie goal.☺
    Ate some good food ☺
    Didn't check in regularly to my stomach

    Today I begin my next phase in life. Time to clean out my life and stick to good eating habits. I know longer want to Live to Eat. I am tired of gaining weight and feeling bad about my looks. Tired of not being able to fit into my clothes.
    My goals for today are to:
    1) update my profile
    2) weigh myself...oh my.
    3) join this support chat and meet new on-line friends.

    Yes you do. They say 1 day out of 7 should be a complete rest day. :)

    You're not left out. Comment daily if that helps you on your fitness journey, comment every once in a while if that works for you, or don't bother at all.

    From what I have seen there are only 2 rules, be supportive of others and try not to be too hard on yourself.

    The only point is to start fresh each morning, which is helping many of us immensely. If that doesn't work for you, there are hundreds of other threads to follow.

    We are willing to support your daily goals and we hope you are having a joy filled day. :smiley:


    It specifically says I have to join, and there are those two other rules. I'm pretty sure I can not adhere to them at all.
    I am extremely hard on myself.
    This thread shows up on the main page when I look and it is a constant reminder that I'm not able to be a part of this club.

    Ok, I will try to post tomorrow then and see how it goes, I am just afraid my own personal journey will not be accepted or tolerated.

    @ofmonstersandmeat - I just saved this as a favorite and bookmarked it with the star at top of page. We are here to support each other, good & bad days both. I love this thread because it has such amazing real people that inspire each other daily. I have actually learned to be less hard on myself my posting & reading out here. I hope u join us, I would love to support you too:)

    I will not eat my stress and boredom away. But I may have a big glass of wine.

    Bill, BRI, Joan, thank you for your well wishes & prayers. My dad is back home tonight & he is doing better. The last week has been really emotional with this illness he came down with. I am hoping tomorrow will not be so heavy with worry. I plan on getting in a good workout tomorrow for sure :)
