I did the Sweaty Betty routine again!
Didn't complete it all although I didn't expect too but that's my new goal, to successfully complete it!
Those from JFT 2017 will know the one I mean!

There's the link! If anyone wants to try!
I've burned 700 calories today! And ate 1500!
I deserve a treat!
Job well done, Bex! I broke out into a sweat just watching it! I think I could modify it a bit and build up to it, in my dreams.
Lol I sweated my glasses off my face 😃 I can't complete it all, not yet anyway, it truly is exhausting but I love Simone De La Rue! She's so positive it spurs me on!4 -

That is an effort but necessary for mental and physical health. I have to remember small counts. Find 10 min 5 times a day on worse days. It's a head game for me.
Progress📯
Made my deadline for terminating eating and oral hygiene yesterday.
Great way to prevent extra eating in the evening and it worked.
I was not mindful of dinner and so I did not record my food after 4pm that's not good
JFT Quick
Read a couple pages in the Beck book and also the Beck cognitive therapy self-talk 4 food behaviors
Kitchen close at 7:30 p.m. oral hygiene by 7:30 p.m.⚠️
Bed by 10 p.m.
10-minute exercise periods as needed to achieve goals
Mindfulness including logging all foods as soon as eaten. Time to eat? did I log ?can't eat until I log!!
Best to all. We are worth it.

Goals for Monday Recap!
- 8+ glasses of water 😁 12!!!!!
- Be in the green 😁😁😁
- Nursery walk x2😕 just the once, I had time to go but my partner said it might be too hot for Saskia to walk home, he was right tbh. Was a bit hot.
- Get house tidy and laundry away. LOL why did I even post this as a goal?! It’s never going to happen 😂
Had such a success of a day. Feeling MUCH better after my binge last night!
It didn’t knock me down! I just tripped
Feeling good, but tired, really want to just sleep but got a bit of cleaning to do!
Might just throw the pots in the dishwasher wipe the sides and table and leave it at that for tonight. Do a deeper clean in the morning!
Night all, will pop on later to read posts (if I don’t fall asleep first!)

I love, love, love driving a stick! My Dad and Grandfather made me learn before I could get my licence. I don't have one because 1 - hubby doesn't care for it in the city and 2 - It's a company car but man I would love to have one again. I love how sexy and in control they make me feel.Tracie, and Snowflake, I have appreciated your What-I've-accomplished-the-last-six-months. I think it's good to write it down...so I shall do the same.
I am making strides to love myself so that I can love others better.
As I've been on this health/life journey my relationship with God has grown deeper.
I've read a couple of inspirational books/studies: one on boundaries and another on forgiveness
I've journaled more than I have in years.
I've logged my food on MFP for 174 days straight. I didn't even bother to set that as a goal because I figured I quit doing it.
I've made lovely friends on JFT and through my online weightloss program.
I actually get up in the morning ready to go for my walk...I walked on my rest day this week because I wanted to!
I am drinking 6-8 cups of water consistently. At the beginning of the year, I was sometimes drinking 1 cup a day---and that included tea, lol!
I have discovered that I have it within me to be in control of my food instead of it being in control of me. I miss the mark sometimes, but it is so empowering to know I can do this.
I have made progress in taking every bite captive before I eat it.
I am no longer incontinent!!! The weight loss and kegels have made a new woman out of me, lolol!
I have released 24 pounds of fat. I honestly don't think I could have done it without the combination of all the above.
My goals for the next six months.
To continue MFP log-in
To continue with JFT
To continue with my online weight loss program
To read two more inspirational books/studies
To journal
To continue drinking and mindful eating
To continue to lose weight by keeping my eyes on the process.
To exercise
To not give up that I can be painfree and continue to be proactive. (back and legs)
To communicate better with my husband and to be kinder
To move to 10 pound weights on more exercises
To add more creative but healthy recipes to my list
To learn to drive a stick shift!
To move onward!
I have tried several times by different people. I get so anxious about starting up when cars are behind me, and such, i'm a nervous wreck! My husband drives a stick and has said it's the easiest one he's ever driven and has offered to teach me. So, i'm hoping before summer ends I will be able to do it. It's on my list of "things to do to make me feel empowered, lol"
My Grandfather taught me on an old 1 tonne, three speed. Our driveway was a 1/4 mile long with a hill at the end. My brother (who is 4 years younger) and Grandfather would tell me what to do, I remember stalling it several times on the hill. They both started yelling at me at the same time telling me what to do. I don't do well in those situations so I ended up getting out of the truck, I hadn't put the brake on or put it in gear or anything. I will never forget my brother running to chase the truck and rescue it from the field it was heading for!

That made me laugh out loud! So, did you continue with your lessons or wait until someone else could help you?1 -
I am thousands of calories over today and it wasn't emotional eating. I wanted a giant bowl of pasta and a half a pint of ice cream and I ate it. Le sigh. Not even close to what I had planned for the day. I now feel ill and mad at myself. As soon as I feel better I'll try working out for a bit, but that won't even make a dent in the amount of calories I ate today.5

Grrr...I'm sorry that happened. It's frustrating, I know. Did you log all your food today, even the food you didn't plan on eating?
2 -
I did log it. The pasta, the olive oil, the Ben and Jerry's coconut 7 layer bar non-dairy ice cream...I logged it all. Every annoying calorie (I'm about 2500 calories over my target.)
I guess I can count that as a victory.3 -

I got the basics down in that old one tonne, my Dad and Grandfather believed I needed to that and basic car maintenance before I was allowed to get my licence. My love of driving stick happened when a boyfriend and his buddies got drunk an hour from home. I had no choice but to drive. The boys got mouthy in the backseat and all started giving me advice. There was duct tape in the glove compartment that I had my friend cover their mouths with and I sputtered and stalled my way up the hills and over the hallway. About half way home one of the boys, who I thought of as a brother and whose Dad owned transports told me I was doing great. I started driving one almost daily after that. I also drove a transport once in an empty parking lot just to say I did it.2 -

Okay, so you stalled, stumbled, whatever. That just means you get back up...which you are doing by getting yourself on here! You said you wanted it...you might look to see if anything triggered the food---boredom, anger, rebellion, etc. And make a battle plan to combat it the next time it raises it's ugly head...and there will be a next time So, not tomorrow, but right now, right this minute is when you start fresh.
You can do this:) You went two steps back today. Take one step forward right now. If possible you might try walking outside a bit to help you reset.
Get on here tomorrow and tell us how you did.3 -

I’m over with you today, but I’m going out to plant some more and hopefully get some calories burned off. If that doesn’t do enough I may take a walk.4 -

I'm trying this workout!2 -
(yesterday) JFT:
Plan each meal
Stay in the green
Post here when I feel like emotionally eating
Do something active
Ok so yesterday didn't really go as planned. In fact I had a rough day...
But it's over. Today is a new day. I come on here to stay accountable and I get so motivated reading everyone's posts!! You guys are incredible!
JFT:
Stay in the green
Go to dance class
Go for a run2 -
Checkin'-in
House chores ✅-super easy since I went gung ho last night
Start next report at work ✅-barely, but I did some!
Get to work on time-spectacularly failed. ARG Mondays!
30 minutes exercise ✅
Meet 1200 net calories, counting exercise ✅
Track food and exercise ✅
Water challenge-80 oz. ✅-day 22/30!
Post here for accountability ✅
For tomorrow:
House chores
Finish report at work
Get to work on time
30 minutes exercise
Meet 1200 net calories, counting exercise
Track food and exercise
Water challenge-80 oz.
Post here for accountability
I was able to meet the 1200 net calories today, but I did it by tacking on some items for dinner. I need to add some more sustenance to breakfast and afternoon snack so I'm not so hungry/worn down. I have been eating pretty clean, which I'm proud of. Today's menu allowed for a red potato with a small portion of butter and sour cream. Honestly, with how clean I have been eating, it was like dessert.
Amazing how perspective can change!
My 6 month goals are to get under 175 lbs. (I plateau here every time!), find a place (and ideally move) close to my sister, start getting out of the house/doing something social every week, read my pile of borrowed books (8), and pay down at least ½ of my credit card.
2 -
Well, I have not been able to exercise off the calories as I still feel pretty sick to my stomach. I'm sipping some zero cal sparkling water and waiting for the pain to pass. I just hope I remember this feeling if I'm tempted to eat like that in the future.4
-
Goals for tomorrow:
1) Stay green!
2) Hit 8 glasses of water!
3) Exercise at least 20 minutes.
4) Follow up on jobs...when I try to pin down why I ate this way, this was the only thing I could come up with...I should have followed up on these today but I wussed out.
5) Physical therapy morning and evening.4 -
OMG!!! I think there are like 75 posts just for today!! Such a active thread -- I almost gave up trying to find my last post (and realized I didn't even post any monday goals)! I had to go back almost 6 pages!! Love it though!
After my terrible binge over the weekend, today was not the best, but not nearly as bad.
@nickssweetheart -- you are definitely not alone!! Ice cream is my worse downfall.... and once I get started, its like my brain leaves my head, and I just go numb.
But ... you did great in logging it all, and being accountable. That alone is a NSV! LIke @toaljasa said, it is only ONE day, and the best thing is to get right back on track (don't let it turn into 3 days like I did). This is the key to being successful. We don't have to be perfect everyday, just when we stumble, get right back on track, and put that day behind us!.. This for me is my biggest obstacle. I do great as long as I stay perfect. When I get off, it takes me so long to get back on track. I eventually do get back on track, because I want to be successful, and get those stubborn last 10 pounds off, but it is hard for me. Thats why I love this thread.
And BTW @toaljasa -- thank you so much for being the best, biggest motivator to all of us!! I don't always have time to comment, but I absolutely love how you encourage each of us!
These were my sunday goals:
1. go to the gym Already did this, so off to a good start today
2. log all food
3. april challenge = 8+ cups water
4. may challenge - 15 minute walk tonite
5. june challenge - mindful eating. Stay away from emotional stuff.
6. clean house
7. get back on here - be accountable
8. do NOT weigh myself until next sunday .... and do not give up. WHY do I do this! The scale is NOT going to move everyday, no matter how good I am!!
9.
Here are my goals for tomorrow
1. getting haircut and colored, so light breakfast
2. log ALL food
3. april challenge - 8+ cups of water
4. may challenge - get out for a walk. Since I can't get to the gym in the morning, maybe a afternoon trip to the gym?
5. june challene - mindful eating
6. sip on water in the evening. Get back out of that habit of nitetime grazing.
7. DO NOT WEIGH myself. Just stay on track

This was so me yesterday! If you read my post, I ate almost a entire box of ice cream. Everytime I do that, I want to remember how crappy I feel. Next time either of us wants to do this .... we need to get on here ... and have everyone remind us of how awful we are going to feel! (My stomach was growling all nite, and hubby kept asking me if I was OK.I don't dare tell him its because of all the ice cream I gobbled down in secret
) 4 -

@toaljasa @Snowflake1968 @mytime6630
I really appreciate the solidarity and encouragement. I think if I hadn't come to this thread and posted this could easily have been a multi day disaster, but right now I'm feeling optimistic about tomorrow. Thank you all so much.
And mytime6630, I will definitely come here first if I'm tempted to do this again, and now I'll look for you to do the same!
Also, one final thought, when I was @ing Snowflake, someone came up with the screenname "Snowflake Kisses" Isn't that a lovely image? Makes me think of kids spinning in a light snowfall with their faces turned up to the sky while gentle snowflakes slip onto their cheeks.4 -

I do, but let me start off by saying I am quite tall and heavy so I get more calories than a lot of others do. I've been playing with my calories quite a bit this year as I started the year on medication that made me hungry all the blasted time. So my suggested calories were right around 1800 and I ended up increasing to 2270. I'm off the meds now so I haven't been as hungry and while I still lost weight it was pretty slow, so I've just cut back to 2070 to see how it goes. But don't be afraid to play with it a little bit and if you do increase your calories slightly, be prepared to hold on to a little weight that first week. When I adjusted upward it took me about 2 1/2 weeks to see the scale move down again, but it did. I think the important part is feeling good rather than losing really fast. I mean, I could have gutted it out at 1800 calories and been chewing on the wooden furniture, but what I found myself doing was miserably holding out for a few days, then overeating by a significant amount. It wasn't worth it to me.
That was a LOT of words to say basically this: they are YOUR calories. It is YOUR food plan. As long as you are getting enough nutrition (i.e., not below 1200, no matter what, and not hungry all the time or feeling like a wreck, getting adequate nutrients, fat, and protein) there is no "wrong" way to allocate them. Unless you are already quite tiny, you will almost certainly lose weight well at 1400 calories too.
How tall are you? I am 5'11", and I've had so many tell me I need to eat more. I think I attempt to keep my calories between 1200-1400, and I am beginning to wonder if that is backfiring on me. That maybe if I increase it more, I won't be as tempted to binge eat. I only have 10 pounds to lose now to get out of the "overweight" range, but just can't seem to get that done. I've been playing back and forth with those last 15 pounds since last October!2 -
I am ALSO 5'11", at least in shoes. Without them, I'm 5'10 and most of an inch.
Do you know what rate of loss you have your mfp settings at? You might try inputting a 1 lb a week loss and see what the system suggests for you. When I cut too far back on my calories it's just really, really hard for me to stay under. 3 -

The bolded section above is I think absolutely at the heart of this all @mytime6630 and @nickssweetheart
It really isn’t about the ability to be perfect/eat clean/exercise every day. It’s about moving forward immediately from the times when we aren’t. This is why JFT is so useful to me as I think it helps keep it all in perspective. We’ve all had rough days but we are here still. And there is always a brand new day.
Let’s make today a good one x3 -

Can anyone explain why my weight is up today? By 1lb? 😡😡😡
Don’t worry I’m not discouraged, if anything I’m more motivated to get those numbers down!
SCRAP THAT!
Just re-weighed and I’m actually 2lb down!
Scale must have been on a dodgy bit of flooring! I tried in 2 different places now and still getting 178! woop! 9 -
@toaljasa what an inspiration you are love the goals and recap of the past six months. I feel in some ways I have back slidden since I started to work from home. I love not having to go anywhere but that has made me more complicit and lazy in some ways. Need to work on knowing it’s ok to not be ok but that there is a purpose in my walk as well.shelsrevenge wrote: »Just found this thread, so far, I have achieved the tracking my food everyday in June. Goals for next month:
1. Track all food that goes in my mouth
2. Hit 10,000 steps at least 1x per week (minimum of 5,000 per day).
3. Get back up no matter how many times I fall.
Thanks for a place to be accountable.
Am new to meal prepping, any ideas that might help me love it? I don't mind the prepping, love the convenience of always having something healthy to grab, but have really been sick of what I've made after the second day.
Great goals. Yes accountability is my need as well. We can do this together. Can’t suggest meal prep I feel the same way you stated. But trying to stick to only healthy food in pantry has helped some. But need to claim you #3 goal.3
