    @TeresaW1020 I think I just slipped that one day. And it was because I was distracted by all that is going on/stress. I am back on track today, on focus! Thanks! I'm glad your new eating plan is working out.

    @adhmrh Oh dear, Monday must seem like a long way away, but it will be here before you know it, hang in there! That's good you got your straw back. I am back on track today, on focus! Thanks! A fall festival sounds like so much fun. I hope you have a good time. :)

    @buniphuphu Your continued dedication is so admirable, you are an inspiration to us all! <3

    @raleighgirl09 Congrats on the loss and no night eating! WTG!

    Hello everyone and Happy Halloween! :D I did show a gain at the scale but I'm not letting that dampen my spirits. I think some of it is water retention as my fingers are swollen. I still lost 6 lbs for the month and I'm happy with that! Tonight, my sister-in-law is coming over for some appetizers, drinks, and spooky movies. No candy. It should be fun! Have a great day, everyone.

    Friday:
    Calories: over/under: over
    Water: over/under: under
    Exercise: walk
    - rate my hunger on a scale of 1-10 before I eat - not accomplished
    - track 90% of food intake - 100% accomplished
    - get at least 7 hours of sleep every night - 100% accomplished
    - drink 2 (26 oz) bottles of water a day - 70% accomplished
    - meditate for at least 15 minutes a day - 100% accomplished
    - put my utensil down between bites - not accomplished
    - ask myself if I'm really hungry before eating anything - 100% accomplished
    - leave at least 3 bites of food on my plate at each meal - not accomplished
    _____________________________________________
    Goals or Improvements for tomorrow:
    - rate my hunger on a scale of 1-10 before I eat
    - track 90% of food intake
    - get at least 7 hours of sleep every night
    - drink 2 (26 oz) bottles of water a day
    - meditate for at least 15 minutes a day
    - put my utensil down between bites
    - ask myself if I'm really hungry before eating anything

    Quiet is just fine! And hurray for this week's great weigh-in! 🏆

    @Cornanda
    Woohoo! Great weigh-in this week! I hope you are thrilled! 😊

    @judy_kay_4
    Cold/rainy/snowy can definitely do a number on mood. Good for you for being back on track this week! I love your strategy of "only Halloween candy you can say no to!" Awesome strategy! I do that, too!

    @Firefly743
    🌟 Boom! Great weigh-in!

    @trooworld
    Hurray for your fabulous attitude and for your smart Halloween plans! Double hurray for being back in action after slipping that one day!
    I hope the water retention subsides and you get a super happy number next week. You are doing such great work!

    @TeresaW1020
    I love that Halloween graphic you chose! I don't know if you can se it, but I changed my MFP avatar/photo to that *same* graphic yesterday! Great minds think alike!
    And I love the James Clear quote!

    @Katmary71
    Yum to that chili! Thanks for sharing recipes!
    And my sympathies as to the TJ PB cups. PB is my downfall when combined with sweets. Dangerous-to-the-willpower stuff!

    @raleighgirl09
    💝I so get the pull to stay off course, once off course. Hurray, you, for getting back in the game, no matter how much faster you think it should be.

    What a great topic for discussion!
    I was really interested, a while back, to find out that the What the Hell Effect is a thing, and has been studied! Interestingly to me, one of the things that seems to help is self-compassion:
    https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/pressure-proof/201701/how-the-what-the-hell-effect-impacts-your-willpower
    That article offers 3 strategies. Do any of them look helpful at all? #3 is the one I come back to:
    "What would you say to a friend who experienced the same setback? We beat ourselves up tremendously when we fail, but would you be just as harsh if your friend approached you with the same setback?"

    So, if we get back on track, it's always a win! And over time, if we can get to where we get faster at it (the next day! the next meal!), that's even better!

    @trooworld the pub desk doesn't include alcohol in the price, but you can order it whilst you're working. I just kept ordering their yummy coffee.

    @Katmary71 i made the Nigella Lawson cauliflower recipe as in thr video and it really tastes nice last week. I roasted sweet potatoe wedges too at the same time so the plate was so colourful

    Not sure if I should post here ot not, already posted in November just in case...



    Weigh in Apple852hk
    Week 1 - Nov 2020 Sunday
    PW 132.9lbs (60.3kg)
    CW 133.8lb (60.7kg)
    LTD about 45.8lbs (20.8kg)

    Gained - not eating properly and just eating chocolate instead of meals. Things happening meaning I don't have access to a kitchen or prepare my own meals.

    It is lockdown this coming week so not sure if I'll be good and not eat chocolate but least buy a sandwich to eat instead.

    I did go for a pub desk and maybe that's why I got on a bad train of eating bread and potatoes instead of more nutritious protein.

    GOALS:
    1. Eat a meal instead of chocolate
    2. Drink less coffee and tea

    Have a good week ahead🥰
