    @MommaGem2017 ...it... it was

    ... beautiful :'(


    :D:D:D

    Lol, seriously it was so good it brought a single tear.
    And how was the asparagus risotto?! I think I've noticed that before. Oh you gotta try the mashed cauliflower!! And I'm sure the cauliflower pizza will make its way to you soon. (Or rather, I hope!)

    Please help hold me accountable to what I put in my body!

    http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/bodwomon

    I'm aiming for 1-2 cheat meals per week + 1 cheat dessert (I'm an absolute sucker for sweet stuff)

    I usually log 1100-1300 cal per day and don't eat my expended workout calories back (yoga daily + alternate days of cardio and butt/thighs training with 1 day break on Sundays) - still want to keep below 1600 calories on days I have a cheat meal.

    @bodwomon hello and welcome! You're in good company! Also, what are crabsticks? They sound delicious. :)

    @Summer_Tulip Haha crabsticks taste good but are completely unhealthy and very processed >< but I try to add something small I enjoy to every meal so I don't end up hating myself (i.e. honey soy sauce to breakfast, meatballs crabsticks to lunch, almonds and walnuts to dinner). They're basically those red and white striped things you get on top / in sushi.

    I hope I have put link in correctly. Last week of term here so normal routine out of window, playgroup party yesterday and this morning then tomorrow I've been invited to a house party where I'm sure the nibbles and wine will be flowing freely. I don't have much to lose now around 7lb but need to take exercise more seriously to change body shape and gain strength, hope everyone is having a good day so far

    New here, only 5 days in, and would love to join this group. Looking for accountability in my journey to lose 100 pounds and change my relationship with food. I'm trying to eat paleo but some days are better than others. Yesterday I ate a couple bites of spaghetti off my sons plate while cleaning up, not my proudest moment but I logged it and was honest.

    Morning.
    Decided to adjust my calories for just 0.5lb of loss and won't be tracking exercise burns after all. I read a lot of comments on how they can be inaccurate and I figured I might as well just work out as hard as I can whenever I can and try to keep my calories consistent. Hoping to hold off any high cal days till at least 2 weeks out.

    @sharonl71 you missed the period that follows www :) so close!! Lol

    @lhutch70 welcome! You're in good company:)

    I will not be around here in the forums as much for the next few days but have fun peeps! And have a good weekend! :)

    Happy Friday everyone! Curious to know everyone's goals today. I'm breaking up my goal into 5lb increments but I have 15 to lose; going at a rate of about 1-1.25lbs/week

    My overarching goal is maintenance/recomp, although I am eating at a slight deficit now - just a couple of pounds. I'm not sure what my goal weight really is - I know what it USED to be, but I'm currently 5 pounds up and having mixed feelings. Some days I look exactly right. Some days, I'm lumpy around the middle.

    Just want to share that while I am feeling full and getting enough of what I need, the diary yells at me and won't let me complete my diaries because according to it I am not eating enough. Some days I do, some days I don't. It is not intentional - I am not starving myself - but just in case people see the logs not complete!

    I know we're supposed to be Chill here, but.... are you sure? Most all of your days are under 900 calories. Are you sure you're feeling okay? Are you exercising on top of that?

    If you say you feel good, then I won't be your nagging Mommy - just checking in ;-)

    Let's see...

    1st goal - take off the 15 "stress pounds" I gained over the last 6 months now that the stress is gone. 4 lbs left - Yay!
    2nd goal is to get under my dreaded 173 where I usually stall out during weight loss.
    3rd goal is to slowly chew away at the final 18 lbs in (roughly) 5 lb increments.

    Seconded! I don't really enjoy fast food much and I still love In & Out. Maybe it's for the best I moved away from the west coast. Also, I loled a little at the otter pop entry - my spouse is addicted to those things. For the sake of whoever you live with, I hope you don't leave the wrappers all over the house like someone I know. [/quote]

    Oh well, I admit I did when I was a kid! I have learned that if I leave them somewhere I'll just have to pick it up another time. So I'm better now.

    Hello! I love the accountability idea! I'm working on losing some weight by tracking on MFP right now, and I am possibly going to be having bariatric surgery this fall. Feel free to send me a friend request! I'm always chill and would never post anything mean or judgmental about anyone's diary!

    Oof, happy Friday chill accountability crew. Since someone mentioned goals, my big goal is getting my nights out under control. I am a happy barfly, but I want to become a moderately healthy barfly, get a handle of the binge eating, and lose some of my wine belly. My current goal is one night out where I don't go over my maintenance number, and one splurge night over maintenance but not enough to bust my weekly goal. The last couple of weeks have been goofy because of a trip out of town last week that sadly ended with a critically injured dog, so we're heading out of town again today since we had to leave him behind in a vet hospital. That meant I agreed to a splurge night out last night that I'm kind of regretting today. I think my monthly goal is okay, but I don't like that I gave in to an excuse, even a good one. There are always excuses, right?
