I think I’m finally making progress. Christmas cookie 🍪 pounds seem to be gone. And another pound too.
I tried smaller meals with multiple snacks but NO. Went back to three decent meals and strictly limited grazing snacks. Cause I’ll eat full meals whether or not I’m grazing. I can’t seem to cut meals down enough to make up for resulting hungry grazing.
So portion control and two carefully thought out snacks.1 -
Good for you, Yooly! You must be feeling pretty excited

Well it was good until this morning when I’m up 2 pounds!!! Overnight! WHY? I have no clue what happened but it’s really making me unhappy. 😤1

You must have been breathing in something, Yooly.
I'm up this morning too, but I know why. Too much extra food yesterday - including a late pizza order
1200 calories over maintenance = 6.6 pounds up. At least for me it will mean some nice drop days...it better...lol 1 -
That's impressive water retention Laurie! Not bad there yoolie! Come on yoolie, sun is shining, birds a chirping, rattlesnakes are rattling.... I have to admit you're not making me eager to want to hike Texas!!!!😝1

Yup - sun ☀️is shining and it’s supposed to be 95 degrees today. About 20 degrees 🔥above average. But lots of snake 🐍 rattling though. If you want the full Texas experience I recommend coming in August!
I’m still POd about those 2 pounds!2 -
I used to tell people they should avoid visiting Greece in August1

Anyone who comes to visit Texas (or Greece) in August from a temperate climate will surely make it a short trip! Thank goodness for air conditioning or the natives would take off too.2

Surprise. 🎉 The two pounds disappeared this morning. Dare I hope forever? Onward!!
I’m going to conquer those last pounds this year 🏆1 -
Wooohoo!

The weight is up, down and all around! The double lunch yesterday didn’t help. And now there’s fatty quiche and cookies lying about that my friend insisted I take home.
I was hoping to be definitely down a few pounds before going to visit family next week in Ohio. But no.....1 -
Will your hubby or son eat those things? Can you flush them? I know that is a waste - but it is a healthy helpful waste. I'm starting to come to terms with that approach with unexpected food gifts. Declining doesn't always work and I swear sometimes just makes the giver more persistent. So if I get to that spot I try not to think about it too much - just say thank you and immediately send it down the toilet (if it fits ) because that is the only safe place for it.
When to you leave for Ohio???2 -
I will admit to sacrilege! True story: I've done both!
--separate the insides of the quiche from the shell. Weigh and eat the insides and log as crust less quiche! Discard shell
--weight and eat the separated shell by itself! Log as "pie shell"
I rest my case!

Easier to have hubby eat it. He’s doing an admirable job! All should be gone in short order and not temping me.
I’m just irked that this food was guilt-forced on me. And I could not decline without hurting my friend. But I did specifically ask for no food.... why don’t people believe that respecting my request would make me happy?2 -
Returned from a week long visit with family where food was flying everywhere! Lots of restaurants and celebrations. I was sure I gained at least a few pounds. But no! I’m actually a pound less than the day I left.3

Congratulations, Yooly! On the loss and on being brave enough to step on the scale.

No bravery required. It’s just what I do every morning to know where I am at the start of each day. It’s not a measure of good or bad. I’ve finally learned to give up on the self hatred and guilt based on scale numbers1
