    You too dewdrop! this may be a rough month because the first two weeks are vacation. But I'm going to do my best.

    I'm so ready for a fresh month!!!!

    I'm going back to tallying my junk-food-free days on here, too, to keep me in check. Had a binge yesterday that is giving me a nasty upset tummy today, and I don't want that feeling anymore.

    Hi dewdrop!
    I am SO glad you are still leading this challenge. I need it desperately. I have not been coping well with w/aging parents and have gained back almost every pound I lost before my son's wedding. :sad: So unhealthy.

    Anyway, I am back to try again. This challenge helps SO much. Thank you!:flowerforyou:

    9:30 cut off time, but I'll allow myself 11:30 for special occasions.
    Good luck to all!

    Thanks! :flowerforyou: I'll also be away from mid Aug for about 1,5 weeks. We'll see how it goes - it could go terribly well or simply all wrong. For now, a good start (it's always big for me how the month begins):

    ME: 1 - LNS: 0

    lamlam, nice to see you face :wink:. Smiley happy face.

    Zaza, thrilled to see you back. I was thinking last night that I should probably mail you to drag you back in :wink:.

    Zaza - nice to meet you! I'm sorry you're having a hard time with your parents. *hugs*

    dewdrop - we can do this! You're right. Vacation will either, I think, go really well because I'll be with people and therefore not alone which is when I usually want my late night food, or really badly because there will be no structured meals, really.

    But, August is off to a good start!

    Awesome start, team!

    It just occurred to me: since I'll be getting home after 8 tonight, cut-off will be 9-9:15. I have to be decent :wink:.

    Last night...I celebrated the first night of vacation a little too hard. LOL

    I may have been drinking, but I also did not eat past my cut-off time. :)

    Now off to pack!

    I'm fasting today to make up for last night.

    After 8 was an underestimate. But since all I had when I came home was grapes, I'll award myself the point:

    Beeps, get back on track! I know you can do this!

    DEWDROP - i blame the "LNS" on unexpected company....and yet, it was my hand putting food into my mouth....

    Alas, it'll get better - cannot WAIT for vacation!

    So far so good, but feeling very tempted. Instead, I decided to log on here. I will enter tonight's info and leave the kitchen so I will not do anything I will regret later.
    Good luck everyone!!

    I may not be able to post here when I'm away on vacation....but, I'll try and keep track of my LNS. I expect it to be "0" because there's NO PANTRY where i'm going.

    :)

    I'm supposed to be back Aug 26th....see you then if not before.

    Hang in there, folks!! August is a GREAT month to flex that "NO LNS" muscle!!

    Sorry I've been AWOL. This is the first time I've been able to get on the message boards in a while, so now I'm all caught up.

    Still going strong. This week-end (houseful of guests celebrating Dad's 86th) will be a struggle.

    Wow, I haven't posted in a long time! I thought I had lost only 1p to LNS, but my memory is not top right now :laugh::

    Me: 8 - LNS: 3

    roughly :smile:. I think I only lost the battle once since last time I posted. And then not entirely, just ate later - no snack while on the computer afterwards, thought.

    Zaza, WOW - thanks for the good example :wink:. The is the "old" Zaza I know - keep it up! I mean low (on the LNS side :laugh:)
