    I've been out of town & have not kept up with y'all nor been even trying at all. However; I've finally come to my senses, again, and will get back on track. I have so much trouble when I visit family & come to Memphis, TN. They have the best BBQ!!! My family and my in-laws always have tons of food & sweets out, around & offered to me. It is so hard to turn down but I'm back on it, as of today. Even if I cannot resist... I can get back into the habit of logging and be more conscientious.. Maybe even hit my goals. So, today... I may not exercise due to bad headache that I awoke with & lack of time. But, I will be making conscious decisions about what I put in my mouth. If I overeat or eat high calorie foods, I want to be aware that I am CHOOSING to do just that.

    Hello all! Recently I have been struggling. I've had some family problems and its made my life very difficult. (Aren't teenagers FUN? :huh: ) While I have been logging what I eat and stayed within my limits, I have been spending many of my days in bed battling with depression. There have been days that I couldn't eat. I don't want anyone looking back at my food journal and thinking that I was starving myself for the sake of weight loss. A few days ago I started working out again, and I am feeling better. I am BACK, and ready to continue this fight.

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? Yes
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? I didn't post one, but it would have been to exercise, so YES
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? I ate well and I exercised... sounds good to me :blushing:
    What would I have done differently? Nothing
    What is today's personal goals? Today is my birthday. I turn 37. So my goal is to enjoy the day. While I will make good food choices, my day is not going to be all about my calories! My hubby, daughter, and niece made mini cupcakes with a recipe I got from here that aren't disastrous for my weight loss efforts. My hubby is making me breakfast in bed, but he made sure it was reasonable, and I have already picked out what I am going to eat when I go out for dinner tonight. So I may not be back to log until tomorrow morning. If I go over.... OOPPPS good thing I am going to the gym Friday! Have a great day everyone

    NEW GW at the end of the Summer 9/22: I want to be at 230 lbs.


    Sun - Nada
    Mon - 45 mins on bike

    JSandie - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! I'm sorry youv'e been struggling with family issues. Teenagers are the worst! Mine can make me crazy at times, but they do mature eventually ... really. I see moments every now and then and mine is 19. I'm so glad that you are back and working out again. Working out really does physically and mentally help with depression - it's so good for you. Have a great birthday!

    Back in town. Even though I wanted to start tracking a few days ago, it didn't really happen. I did have some restraint for the rest of the trip, but not enough. So, a little gain, but not updating my tracker yet. (3 pounds).
    Today, will be a rough one & I doubt that I will be under calories and may not get exercise in... but hopefully tomorrow, I can get back on track.
