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.

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!0

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.

JSANDIE: So sorry to hear about your troubles. Teenagers are tough, I had two daughters who are now
32 and 30. It does get better and they do appreciate what you do eventually. Hang in there darlin:flowerforyou:
I had my first apt with my new Nutritionist who is also a personal trainer, not mine, but she gave
me some tweaks to what I am doing now and I will be using her advice this month.

Isn't it wierd that a lot of us are struggling at the same time? Is it the time of year or something? More important than EVER that we stay with it and use this board to get encouragement and help! AGHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! Happy Fall?!?!?!?!?:huh:0

Yes, Dahlia I am with you on the cooler temperatures. I am tired of humidity and sweating all the time.
I get enough of that doing exercise.
We are all in the same position because summer is hard to lose
weight with parties, bbq's , and just plain eating all the summer fare. Fall here we come and to better
days of losing not gaining or in my case maintaining when I want to lose. :ohwell: Good Luck next week
ladies.

Ever :-p. He's been planning this for months... Told TONS OF PEOPLE and decided to not say a word to me /sigh
