I got up early this morning and made it to an 8:00 a.m. Aqua Motion class. This closed my move ring on my watch before I ever got to work, so now everything else today is just a bonus!cyndiesstuff wrote: »

Yay!!! I got my steps in today. It took a concerted effort but I did it. I also drank all my water and stayed within my calorie goal. It was another good day. I am really trying to change the weekends. It is like if I have free access to the frig, I go hog wild. As of yet, I have not been successful with an on plan weekend. That is my goal for this weekend. It is just one weekend. I can do one weekend.
What are your wins today?4 -
@buniphuphu Yay! look at you being all consistent. I love water aerobics. They use to have a class near me but they changed the hour of the class and now I don't get out of work in time. It was great for my chronic pain. I sent an email to the pool people and asked if they could change the time back yesterday. Maybe they will. We shall see. In the meantime, swim for me!!2

Sorry Team, but I was expecting not loosing any weight this week. My last 2 weeks I lost 5 LBs each week and I expected my body to adjust this week. Even if I don't loose any weight next week I will still be happy with a 10 LB loss for the month of January. My goal is to loose 1 LB a week and hopefully keep it off. I will continue to eat well and exercise and see what happens next week.5 -

I bought lots of nuts, fruit and vegetables today, as well as, chicken, salmon and minced beef. I'll be healthily well fed over the next few days. I can get a tad lazy at times and not bother buying things that need too much preparation ☺️3

From the Motivation app
“The only successful way to reach and maintain a healthy weight is to find what works for you. “
This quote is true. But the hard part for me has always been that I change. Like I find something that works- I lose the weight- but - -then I change and the weight comes back on.
Maybe this time will be different. Only time will tell. I ate over my calories today but tomorrow I won’t.
My weight is currently fluctuating between 156 in the morning and 158 lbs in the afternoon. If I get it down to 146 to 148 lbs I will be happy maintaining that. That was my problem last time - I lost weight but I didn’t know what minimum weight I’d be happy at. I think it’s important to know what weight you are most happy/comfortable living in your body with.4 -

Good morning Team Weight No More. I had a nice loss this week. I am glad for weight loss when I have a turbulent week. I was expecting a maintain so this was a welcome surprise. I am committing to the group, that this weekend I will stay within the calorie goal I have set for myself. If I am going to lose weight and keep it off, I need to learn how to eat in moderation on the weekends. I am starting by looking at what I say to myself that gives me permission to eat more than my body needs. Things like, I can have just one, I don't care, It doesn't matter, I just won't eat tomorrow. None of these scenarios have ever given me the end result I am looking for. Words are powerful. Be careful what you say to yourself.

Oh I just thought of another thought that gives me permission to overeat. It's, I've already screwed it up I might as well just continue. And we all know that's not true. What I'm going to say is I can stop now and feel good about my decision tomorrow6

@cyndiesstuff I've started to come round to the idea of being in calorie deficit being the key and to enjoy whatever I feel like eating. If it's an unhealthier option, I'll have it in moderation just to satisfy my taste buds. Gradually, I feel the desire to have unnecessary treats or larger portions less and less.
I'm entering all that I eat and drink into my MFP diary and, through Google Fit, it registers how much I have burned off, calculating the calorie deficit or overs. To begin with, I've been aiming for 3,500+ deficit over 7 days. That's 500 per day but, as some days are indulgent, I accept the overs as long as the unders make up for it. I'm currently at a deficit of 4,152 for Sun-Thu.
For me, feeling guilt or being upset with myself for eating a tasty treat is too restrictive and just means more anxiety. And, to go down the rabbit hole of, 'well I've already messed up my eating for today, means I can scoff more because I've lost the battle', lays a tougher path to take.
A combination of better food choices with increased exercise will hopefully lead to weight loss, fitness and a healthier, long-term, attitude to eating.
I'll be keeping track here, so let's see how I do 😊5 -
