Tuesday-Thursday went to the shopping mall every evening - trying to find good deals on skiing gear (it's crazy expensive).
I looooove the frozen yogurt with fruits at the mall and the soft pretzels. So every day, I would skip diner and have the yogurt and the pretzel at the mall.
The weight didn't go down much, but I enjoyed my treats a lot(too much I think
)
Not going to the mall anytime soon again - those pretzels are addicting

I have an hour for lunch today. I brought my running gear and got to run with snow flurries. I’m just finishing lunch and ready to pack up leftovers.
Then it struck me...leftovers????? When have I ever had leftovers??? I have never understood that concept. This is my lunch so I eat it. I realized that I was extremely happy and full. Anything more would not be a happy place. I even brought 2 lovely treats. I’m really hoping I get hungry again so I can enjoy them with a cup of camomile tea this afternoon. I always have a treat w lunch. Hmmm looks like that’s no longer true.3 -
Daily log in for: Thursday
Logged: Yes, but it was inaccurate. Hubby cooked dinner and his southern roots way of cooking isn't the healthiest but its darned tasty
Water: Lots, lost track
Steps and Exercise: 1 hour walkabout the hood; 13,416 steps
Been a busy day and just now getting around to checking in. Big storm headed our way but we're prepared so it will probably bypass us. Who knows...??? In light of hubby's dinner last night of chicken fried steak and "fried taters" tonight we're having steamed artichokes and salad with grilled shrimp. Life is all about balance, right?
@Shirin_K A couple of years ago JessicaSmithTV did a MFP Fall Back Into Fitness Challenge series of 5 videos... two of them are strength training circuits. They're good also... that's how I first became familiar with her.
@GingerPwr I used to be anti weigh every day but now I weigh myself almost every morning. Its helped me to see trends. I learned about the happy scale app from a couple people here. I still get disappointed when I gain but it doesn't affect me as much. Everyone's different tho.
@cyndiesstuff I've been thinking about your question all day. I don't really think in those terms but no, I don't like the new me I guess. I'm not where I want to be yet and the voice in my head always reminds me if I hadn't let myself get so out of shape I wouldn't be in this boat. Does that make sense?
@sleepymom5 Hope your first day went well.
@hope002 I love shopping mall soft pretzels but they're on my no no list for now.
@Mrsbell8well Dr. Greger's book popped up on Amazon as a recommended for me book. I wasn't sure about it at first but I think I'll get it since you recommend it. Thanks!!
Wishing everyone a fantastic February!!3 -
@nstephen01 you can ck out his app too. It’s the daily dozen and can be used as a guideline. His recipe book is lovely as well.
I’m planning to do the strength videos u recommend. Starting this weekend.

@MrsBell8well . Love your Feb goals! I have no doubt you will hit them all! Looking good in your Jet's shirt!
@eyesopennow Nice loss!! You posted in the right spot! We got you!
@pacnsnc6 Nice loss! I have been gaining and losing the same few pounds too. Let's do this!
@shirin_K Those are awesome goals! Loved that your little guy joined in with the Yoga. So cute!
@amsandos What a great idea to curb your snacking! I am a Brit at heart. My father's father come to the US. I know we have relatives in Portsmouth and I can't remember the other town off hand. My maiden name was Price which I am told is a common name in England.
@cafelelia That sodium can mess up a weigh in day. No worries, just drink a lot of water to flush it out. Sorry for the confusion with posting the weights. Once they open up the next months thread, we usually go over there. We still post your weight on the spreadsheet as usual. Love your February goals!
@cyndiesstuff If anyone can talk ED into being on the cheer squad it would be you! I am glad you were able to kick him to the curb today!
@hope002 Nice loss! I need to stay away from those mall pretzels too Lol!

My new recipe planner arrived yesterday. Looking forward to recording our favorite recipes. I work this morning. Then grocery shopping with mom.
Mom was bragging to my sister yesterday about my success. She sent me a text. I told her what I’m doing and sent some of my food pics. She lives in Oregon. I told her I feel slender, healthy, fantastic and strong. She said she wants to feel that way. Her and her best friend are jumping on board and giving it a try.
I’m making a falafel sandwich tomorrow. The recipe has 5 components. Naan, falafel, roast veggies, red sauce and green sauce. Sounds yummy. I will send pics. Have a great weekend everyone.4 -
I’m also making pancakes tomorrow 😋1

Good morning Team!! Yesterday was a really good day. I have now two days under my belt of good days. I have started practicing positive self talk. I am going to change the way i talk to myself. So i have imagined what the new me has to look like and now i am going to create her. I read another chapter in the beck diet solution and i listened to a few podcasts about changing your mind. I ate healthy yesterday and i got in a lot of activity. made a really yummo shrimp stir fry for dinner and stopped eating when i was full. this is a new habit i am making. i am practicing eating mindfully and when i feel my stomach is full, i stop. When i am done here, i will plan my food for the weekend.
@Cafelelia you are my northern friend. weather hits my town and then goes to yours!! i sure hate when your body gives out and you have to totally regear your plan. but something to remember... life is always going to happen and what ever it throws your way, you can handle it and move on!
@hope002 oh yes, soft pretzels. i am a comfirmed bread a holic!
@Mrsbell8well your lunch looks yummy! you say you feel like slender, healthy, fantastic, and strong in your post and i say, "you are"
@nstephenson01 Do you make homemade artichokes? or are they canned or jar? i love artichokes but dont really know how to make them fresh. so what you are saying is that you are a work in progress. have you imagined what the new you will look and feel like? spend some time inventing her. and then, when in doubt, you can ask, "what would the new nancy do?"
@DananaNanas yes. that is movement in the right direction. nice loss. how are you doing? are you feeling better?
@FieryVixsin nice loss! have missed you checking in. how are you doing? what are you working on?
@sleepymom5 i am glad your first day went well. do you think you are going to like it? your son's friend play what in new jersy?
@GingerPwr and if you know where you are eating, look up the restaurant and see if they have an online menu. many these days do. and many have menus with calories listed. i try to pick those when i go out to dinner. you are doing great!!
