I got my copy of Beck's book "Diet for Life" and have started reading it. As previously shared, I've been working on the muscle to improve a habit and it is not only helping with my saying no to food, but also it is making me aware of the muscle used with spending, teeth cleaning, etc. In reading the book, I notice that I'm feeling a little scared...I'm not sure what this is about, but it feels a little lonely to think I will have a void of the things I'm giving up...or changes I'm making. They say not to give up the food you want, but I am giving up the action, such as binging and eating for comfort. Even being afraid is premature because I really haven't gotten into the program, I just noticed I'm already having feelings about it.
I am excited because I think my secret Santa is getting this for me. I am having trouble finding the workbook that goes with it. It is ok to have those feelings. The first time I did therapy for binge eating my biggest struggle was my feeling of losing the binge. I felt sad, empty, like I was losing a friend and depressed. It is ok to feel these feelings. They subsided as I worked through therapy. One of the biggest things I did was begin a new hobby. It was something I relied on when these feelings would get overwhelming. I put on my Christmas wish list that I gave my hubby a few ideas for a starter kit in a few different crafts.@lindamtuck201811/6

Your check ins are really good. One day over calories in 3 months and you had Thanksgiving in there is amazing! Awesome loss!mari_moulin wrote: »Hello team. Quick check in for me as it’s been awhile. It makes me smile to see how active everyone is in our team and how supportive you all are for each other.
I’m sorry I haven’t been active this month at all. I’ve let myself step away and kinda just keep to myself. On the 9th it was the 7 year anniversary of my moms passing. That along with my current grief of losing my brother in law and nieces and confinement and my mom in law going through depression and a Covid scare (false positive test) its not been easy to focus on my own weight loss goals. Fair warning I am coming in with a gain tomorrow. Sorry 😔
I am trying to keep my head up but is been hard as it’s been for so many of us this past year. I don’t know about you all but I’m so ready for this year to be over and turning the page on one of the worst chapters of my life.
Any who catching up with my steps. I don’t remember the last time I posted them so here they are for the week...

My smartwatch has been acting up.... for the last few nights, it has me sleeping for 14+ hrs!! I have averaged 7.5 to 8. It also stopped counting steps on Tuesday... I'm not upset at all. It was only meant to be an interim solution. Thank goodness it was cheap, lol. At least it is a cute watch. How's that for making lemonade out of oranges!! Well that's what this crazy smartwatch situation feels like. I think Santa might be good to me this year.....

Had a huge binge last night. After my interview, I just crashed. Instead of being able to relax, I just felt nervous and like I was crawling in my own skin. Wanted to do anything to escape that. I made it through most of the day and then binged at night. This morning I feel really down. Also, I'm not sure if MFP, at least on my main page is for me. I didn't even want to enter my walk from last night. Actually I didn't because sometimes I just don't want to engage with others. Also, someone said something which I thought was so judgmental. It wasn't even to do with weight, but it felt like a really mean spirited comment. I can unfriend the person, but they have become friends with pretty much most of my friends and are all over my feed.
Anyway, I'm just feeling down, but thought I would check in.
I am sorry that someone made a judgmental comment. Can you ask the person what they meant because sometimes when typing on a keyboard things don’t come across as we mean them? I am sorry this happened to you. Whatever you do don’t give up. You have made remarkable progress with both your weight loss and your walking. I am proud of you.
Today is brand new. Try to call a friend or send someone a message. Take today minute by minute if you have to. I understand how hard it is to pick up after a binge. You got this!

Yes, you are describing how I felt, I'm sure I will be dealing with this moving forward. The idea of getting crafts is a great idea! I will try to figure something out. Do you mind sharing what some of your ideas are?

Beginner macrame kit
Needle felting kit
Diamond art (this is what I started when in therapy but I stopped doing them)
Other things that come to mind are
learning to knit or crochet
Paint by number
learning to sew
Anything that you have to concentrate on and will take your mind off the binge. When I was doing diamond art it was great for taking my mind off things.0 -

Thank you Linda, I'm trying not to let it mess with my mind, because I know I did everything I could this last week (fasting, tracking, macros, training, sleep and water). Now I have to get through this weekend clean.

So technically I got the rest of my steps for the day (like 800) a little after midnight so my step counter still shows me short. But, I'm counting it cuz I did them before I hopped in to bed for the night! Haha. Today is grocery shopping day so after my son goes to preschool, I'll be heading out for a while. After my small gain last week I'm anxious to get to weigh day and see what's up. I've been trying not to get on the scale early.3 -

I am thankful for the step challenge. I did not walk on the treadmill yesterday and only took my dogs on a short walk last night. I was just under 10,000 late at night, so I walked around for a little while to make sure I made my 10K:)
yes! with the exception of the last 9 days or so, this was me too! I'd look at my fitbit before bed and if i wasnt at my 10k but close, i would walk around aimlessly to get them hahaDaily Post December 9

Yesterday the kids had a little play date with a few friends from school, so we went to a playground. After we arrived and the kids ran off to play one of the other moms looked at me and said "you are looking really skinny", and asked what I was doing. I was very shocked because I figured none of the other parents from the school probably noticed my changes. I guess I was wrong! It felt really good.
Moments like those are the ones I bring foremost to my mind when I'm battling cravings and stuff. That and my goal I have of getting below 200 for the first time since I was 12, by the end of the year.
That's awesome!!! It's nice to have those comments, and keeps you motivated!1 -

Great job on the week! Let me know how that book goes for you once you get on it I have honestly found that since I have stopped binging and eating my "red" foods, everything else kinda falls into place- including my weight loss!

Oh I was kicking myself when I woke up at 9.15 this morning! Lately I've not needed to set an alarm so I thought I'd be fine- nooooope. So alarm is set for tomorrow to be sure!
Usually it's the only time I get to myself, the mornings, because my wife likes to sleep in til the crack of noon! haha
Today, again, no workout. This week is a bit of a bust for that. And that's ok. Doctors appointment made for Wednesday, hopefully she can figure out what's going on. I also chat to my endocrinologist on Tuesday (I totally forgot to get bloodwork done, I hope he isn't going to be mad!)
It'll be nice to tell my endocrinologist that I've finally started losing weight! Last time we chatted I was around the 355 mark I think. Now I'm around the 325. It's nice to report some good news haha.
I did some cleaning today, and wrapped some christmas presents, so I don't have to worry about Gael snooping! Even though I did my 10 active hours, I lay low for sure.
Back to work tomorrow- how did those 9 days go so fast! Ugh. I'm closing too, so I have to prep my food for tomorrow- which I'll do before I go to bed.
It's already 11, so I'm going to sign off, make lunch, and jump in the shower. I hope I get a good sleep tonight.

Tell them to F*** off and get rid of them. That's what I would do. It is hard for many to open up and I am one of those who went through my Facebook feed and "unfriended" over half my "friends" because I hate fake people and reconnecting with many from my childhood just made me feel like that ugly little girl who grew up in that small little judgemental town. My point is if they don't make you feel good about yourself or if they EVER make you feel bad they are not worth keeping around. That's my two cents. Don't let one person ruin your self worth or make you feel less than.4 -

I wanted to thank you again for all your kind words of encouragement. It really means a lot. I found and posted to the Habit Tracker! Thank you for the link. For now, I will be posting my daily check ins to the Habit Tracker. It is a few less steps for me. Then I can concentrate on reading and posting in general. I will be posting my weight here weekly, as well.
One of my goals, that I just added, is to start "The 100-Day Goal Journal" by John Lee Dumas, on 12/14. My focus will be on health, which includes weight loss, among other things. It is a book I purchased on Amazon. It fits my personal style. I am very goal driven, motivated, and focused. I have been successful in many areas of life, but weight is a struggle. I am fairly close to goal, 30+ lbs. I have lost 23 lbs. since I started 9/1/20. I want to do my very best to keep the weight off, this time. I actually used MFP for the first time in mid 2017 through early 2018. I lost nearly 40 lbs., let life get in the way, and gained 20 lbs. back. The good news... in the 2+ years I was away, I didn't gain it all back! I have now surpassed the 20 I gained.
Thought it might be nice to share some insight into my personality. Lee 5 -

So I don't have covid. And I have an appointment with my doctor for Wednesday morning. I was ok for most of the day yesterday- but then after supper, I got the pains again. It just feels like trapped wind, it's weird.
Anyhoo, today I have a few hours to myself so imma just do a few chores and come back to read and respond- cus there is a LOT of stuff
I am so glad you don’t have covid. Hopefully your doctor figures out what is wrong.@lindamtuck2018

There's a food truck in my future tonight - with tons of beautiful Christmas Lights. I'm going to focus on the lights.
You are in a new decade! Awesome loss!1 -

Oh I was kicking myself when I woke up at 9.15 this morning! Lately I've not needed to set an alarm so I thought I'd be fine- nooooope. So alarm is set for tomorrow to be sure!
Usually it's the only time I get to myself, the mornings, because my wife likes to sleep in til the crack of noon! haha
Today, again, no workout. This week is a bit of a bust for that. And that's ok. Doctors appointment made for Wednesday, hopefully she can figure out what's going on. I also chat to my endocrinologist on Tuesday (I totally forgot to get bloodwork done, I hope he isn't going to be mad!)
It'll be nice to tell my endocrinologist that I've finally started losing weight! Last time we chatted I was around the 355 mark I think. Now I'm around the 325. It's nice to report some good news haha.
I did some cleaning today, and wrapped some christmas presents, so I don't have to worry about Gael snooping! Even though I did my 10 active hours, I lay low for sure.
Back to work tomorrow- how did those 9 days go so fast! Ugh. I'm closing too, so I have to prep my food for tomorrow- which I'll do before I go to bed.
It's already 11, so I'm going to sign off, make lunch, and jump in the shower. I hope I get a good sleep tonight.
Stay safe all xx
If you went early Monday morning he may have the results for your appointment. I have done that a few times. You will be back to your exercise soon. It is better to rest when your sick.ScorpioGirl70 wrote: »Weigh in Day is Fridays

I really need to hone in my eating and get my booty up and start moving.
You have been sick and your body needed rest. Are you fully recovered? Thanks for sharing your family’s symptoms the other day.mari_moulin wrote: »As I predicted. I’m coming in with a gain this week. I’m incredibly frustrated with myself.
