@ljdanny mfp seems to have had issues on and off last week so lets hope that it is straightened out now. It sounds like you had a good week AND have a plan for a good week next week too. It is hard to get back on track sometimes but you have made progress so give your self credit for that. I have been looking around at all the stuff I have to do too. The basement is good but the attic is another story Lol! Good luck with the cleaning and organizing! Hope your son has fun on his trip, I know we still worry even though they are grown. Once you have kids,21 doesn't sound too old anymore does it? Hugs to you Mama!
@CassieGetsFit2013 How is everything going? Are you staying on track? A gain can be a number of things so keep that in mind. Hope everything is well. Miss you checking in.
@nstephenson01 Sounds like it was a nice night even with the dinner mistake. Don't feel too bad about it, looks like you got right back on track today. 10K steps before 11 is pretty amazing!
@twyla77 Enjoy Vegas twyla!!3 -

Busy weekend of working. Eating and yoga on track. Love all the posts. I was having trouble with mfp logging me out when I tried to post last week, but seems better right now. I came upon this meme and it resonated with me - so I thought I would share with the team. Have a great week team!

I am a bit baffled. so I need to break this down because I am not going to make excuses for my gain. that is not going to get me to where I want to go. So starting friday. I had my fish and chips, it was nice but I can honestly say I did not eat for 2. Also there is a lot of fat in that food and I think I have been neglecting my fruit and veg. Secondly Saturday was a bit of a disaster zone for storm eating. I had to go into work and there was stuff going on and it did my head it so I had treats from the kitchen. I chose to deal with my annoyance in this way. I told myself I an running a lot it will balance out. It did not balance out. What have I learnt from it well I can't have treats in this way. They need to be planned and control. People are annoying and I can't let them sabotage my weight loss. I had breakfast and lunch yesterday. Then I got to 7pm and i realised that i was not hungry. this is not like me. i must have been fog eating while i was doing food prep. i could make excuses like mfp wasn't working propely but i am just going to own this gain and take it as a learning experience.
Anyway onwards and downwards (on the scales). I am going to turn that frown upside down because this is a new week.4 -
things I am going to do this week:-
Eat for two on the hunger scale stop at comfortably satisfied. Need some tips on how to stop.
Log everything
eat more vegetables
make sure i only eat mindfully1 -
@sleepymom5 Glad this is your last full week. You will rock it and get a much deserved break!
@nstephenson01 Happy Anniversary!!! Mmmmmm sushi. I would've eaten all the rolls too. You enjoyed yourself and today is a new day.
@amsandos You're right - redirect, log, measure, and regain some of tat control. Also consider stress and hormones as factors as well. Everything will be okay!
Well, guys, today is day 30 of my 100 ab challenge. An NSV's for me - this is the 2nd 30 day challenge I've completed. The first was yoga in January. I usually abandon them around day 10.
The exercises were all challenging, but didn't kill my abs - there was no day where I felt too sore to exercise, and I really liked that. Plus, there were always modifications each day - some days I did the modifications, some days I didn't. Some days I broke the exercise into sets to get through them, but I got through them. If any of you decide to do the challenge, let me know! I'm going to go through it again in April I think. Here is my progress pic:

Ate: to plan
Water: not remotely enough

The benefit for the warming shelter was ok. It was a good cause. Money well spent. But BORING. So i got the prep done for the week. I am set up for success. Lets roll into this monday with momentum.
@GingerPwr start planning out your projects now. One at a time. you can do this. Stress is an emotion. What thoughts are causing you stress? Then change those thoughts. Spring is going to to be busy for you. wooooo hooo on the abs girl! look at that!!! YES
@sleepymom5 you did it! great job. i am so proud of you. what a revelation. you can go out with your friends, have fun, enjoy food, and not over eat. wow. you are awesome!! and you know. all i kept thinking was that i need to help him. i wanted to help. but untill someone is ready help does not help. i am afraid he won't but pray that he will.
@ljdanny mfp has been glitchey these last few weeks. sometimes i have to back out and log back in three times before it works correctly. and you never stop worrying about your children. i pray for my children every nite. and they are 28 and 34. and alway keep the belongings that bring happy feelings. it if don't feel good.... pitch it!!
@CassieGetsFit2013 how are you doing cassie? you don't write much these days.
@nstephenson01 you need to not beat yourself up. over compensating the next day cements in your mind you were bad. you weren't bad. you were human. people make mistakes. that is how they learn. spend some time now being mindful about where it went south. figure out a plan for next time and write it down. i will bet that the second glass of wine was probably a trigger. and then it lowered you inhibitions. this will happen again. get prepared now. and then practice. be happy this happened. now you can really look at how to fix it. '
@twyla77 have you made your plan for vegas? don't let this be a free for all. eat when you hungry and stop when your satisfied. you can do this. and that little gain. nothing to worry about. the scale moves like that.
@phoebe112476 that is a great meme. glad you are on track. you are a rock star!!
@amsandos love your attitude and the way you analyzed your situation. Good job at putting it all in perspective. and thank you for walking us thru your thought process. it is important to write it down. this little blip on the scale is nothing. and it will come right back off. tips to help you stop. make it a ritual. something you will do all the time that signals your brain that you have had enough. i have two. first, i put my fist to my stomach and hold it firmly against it. you stomach is about the size of your fist. does your stomach feel slightly full? if so, then the second thing i do is push my plate away. these two things signal my brain that i am done. but you need to find what works for you.
@gottagetthisdown maintains are good. you keep working it. when do you go back to the nutritionist?1 -
Check in for: Sunday
Ate: logged and under
Water: at least 64oz
Exercise and steps: Walking outside and 10,050 steps
I had a nice weekend. I had some fun and also got some stuff done around the house. I am ready for a new week. Let's have a great week everyone!
@phoebe112476 MFP was acting up last week. I am hoping that they figured it out. Sounds like you had a good weekend! I love that meme too . Something I need to keep in mind.
@amsandos Great attitude! I am glad you aren't beating yourself up over it and you are learning from it. I think the mindful eating and hunger scale isn't easy. I am sure it will be at some point but I still feel like I don't have it down. I am so much better than I was though. I feel like I get it now, I just how to keep practicing so I am more familiar with the feeling of satisfied. You are really doing so well. You're killing it with the exercise, you are really sorting out your eating and why, you have come so far, you should be proud!!
@GingerPwr Wow! Amazing progress! You can see a difference at each stage! And what a great feeling that you have completed the entire challenge.2 -
@cyndiesstuff I was writing when you were posting I guess Lol! It sounds like you had a nice weekend and you are set up for a good week. I agree, he has to be ready. Have a great day.1

Good morning everyone! I hope you all are doing well. This weekend I did not plan my meals as I planned I knew I was going to a birthday party so I anticipated being off on my calories. Before I went to the party I was concious of what I ate I stuck to the snacks that my nutritionist advised. On Sunday I slept late so I skipped breakfast and didn't have lunch until around 2pm I didn't overeat as expected. I did my meal prepping for the week when I came home from lunch. So Monday has started off good.
@cyndiesstuff I meet with her again April 1st, she emails me every week to tell me what she thinks of my meals I have tracked so far so good. I don't know if she has seen my weekend meals yet

Daily Check in for: Sunday
Food: Logged, over
Water: Under, didn’t track
Exercise and steps: Walk outside with family and 11,274 steps
It’s been a long time since I’ve done a daily check in! After a crazy few weeks, it’s time to get back on here and spend more time thinking about eating and exercise. Things are going okay, but I know I could be doing a lot better. Thank you to everyone who continues to share successes and struggles, meals, advice and just being here for the team!
I love that the weather has warmed up - we were able to get outside and enjoy walks both days this weekend. And as I watched the kids ride their bikes yesterday, I couldn’t help but think how all the effort to lose weight (even if slow at times) has been worth it. I’m glad I’ll have more energy to keep up with them and play with them all summer and feel more comfortable. It’s also great motivation to keep working at my goals!
Today my meals and snacks are already planned and logged - it’s so nice to have one less thing to worry about! And I’m looking forward to yoga this afternoon.
Have a great Monday everyone!

Daily Check in for: Saturday and Sunday
Food: GOod
Water: Not bad for a weekend, could have been better
Exercise: Did get my steps in and yoga yesterday!
It was a pretty good weekend. Stayed on plan (Whole30) even with most of the kids over with their families. We had a potluck and I just ate my Whole30 food and didn't touch anything else. The funny thing, I only have a little bit left of a huge Hamburger Soup I made with tomatoes, zucchini and carrots. The other dishes, there were at least 1/2 left over. It's great to see everyone choosing a healthier option and actually liking it enough to eat seconds. The grandkids ate tons of the soup
I'm on the my last week of Whole30..6 more days. I'm going to slowly re-introduce my lower carb foods again but I'm going to take it slow. I'm just dying for something other than eggs for breakfast (blueberry mug muffin next Sunday for breakfast!!). I definitely know I cannot eat dairy anymore - I'll need to keep it to just special treats here and there. My sinus issues are all gone now and I don't want them to every come back again!
Anyhoo..hope everyone has a great day!!5 -

@carlsoda Isn't it great when a healthier option is available and people actually eat and enjoy it! I've had that experience myself and its quite rewarding. We can make a difference even if its just one dish at a time LOL

@sleepymom5 Have a great last week of work! Phew... you did it!
Wishing everyone a great start to the week!3 -
Well it took me all day to log into here today. I was just headed to bed and thought I should try one more time. I did get my food logged and I even measured everything I ate today. I actually got up at 415 this morning. It would have been earlier but I fell back to sleep when my alarm went off but I did dream that I was awake so not sure if that counts. But I did 2 videos, and all my food was prepped for today so I just hopped in the shower and it was a quick to get ready. Hopefully same thing for tomorrow. Well I'm off to bed 4am comes quick.4
