    @Chapter_3
    Hope you get some needed rest and are back at it soon.

    @_JeffreyD_
    Thanks for the reminder that it’s ok to feel hungry. I mean really feel the sensation and that I don’t need to squash that feeling immediately with eating something. I remember reading that sometimes we are actually thirsty and think we are hungry. It’s about being mindful and not reacting, which is easier said than done.

    @SModa61
    So what if you’re not perfect- who is? Sorry about the crappy dinner but it’s just food. May you enjoy the day despite what you anticipate.

    Yes, indeed. Moving on. I should have stuck with testing out their caesar salad (have not dined at this restaurant previously). Caesar salad is one of my compromise splurges. When good, they fulfill my cravings as well as my dining needs when NOT combined with an additional full entree (I either top with protein, or follow with an app as my entree). Thanks for wishes.

    Somehow I forgot to post the past 3 days. Schedule off track. Anyway, I’m back. Charlie passed his second temperament test this week to earn his AKC temperament tested title and I wanted to share this cute pic of him and his “new title” ribbon. Have a great weekend, everyone—I’m off tomorrow to support my friend at another dog show.

    RND 266 SW 212.0 EW 208.0
    RND 267 SW 207.4 EW DNW
    RND 268 SW 208.2 EW 203.8
    RND 269 SW 203.8 EW TBD

    Goals:
    📊Weight is just a number to track data
    🥩Increase my protein intake
    🚰🏋️‍♀️Maintain water and exercise

    8/14 203.8 I recalculated my macros last night. My calories increased along with me protein intake. I was struggling to hit 95g of protein a day and now I need 162g. I used MFP calculations, but the data set was wrong. So we’ll see how I do with the new guidelines.

    8/15 202.8 20 pounds lost!!

    8/16 203.0 I had LASIK surgery yesterday and found out I can’t lift weights for a week. I can do light exercise after 3 days. The fact that I was bummed about this was kind of a win for me. Exercise has become something I look forward to every day as a stress reliever.

    8/17 204.0 Hormonal bloat. Hopefully will reach onderland by the end of the month once the water weight drops off.

    @deepwoodslady I’m not sure what a “5 piece” bag of RS SF candy is but remember they are sweetened with something that may cause excessive “doodoo.” I have taken them on cruises just so I don’t have a stoppage.

    @Chapter_3 I hope you are feeling better as the day goes on.

    We ALL have good rounds and bad but that is part of life. Don’t stay away, stay accountable. We don’t judge, we support.-Jpv,2/13/19

    What we need to succeed is a sustainable way of eating, not a DIET we go on and off.

    This is NOT A DIET. It’s a LIFESTYLE.

    I very clearly (too clearly) remember DD and I going to the movies together when she was a teen, and we decided to sneak in a big bag of sugar free gummy bears to share. Yes, a memorable outcome.

    editing to add, 5 piece package of RS sounds like a win. Just don't binge like I did.

    @quiltingjaine Walmart (and dollar stores) sell the small bags of Russell Stovers Sugar Free Chocolate candies in different varieties. The $3.00 bag is 5 pcs. They come in different varieties. Chocolate pecan, dark chocolate, coconut chocolate etc. All 5 pcs are the same in the bag. Delicious and satisfying for a diabetic looking for something sweet as an OCCASIONAL treat.

    08/03 …..190.6….. ENDING WEIGHT LAST ROUND

    08/14 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW )

    08/15 -190.8- (Trend weight 190.3)

    08/16 -191.4- (Trend weight 190.7) I must apologize for my attitude and rant yesterday. I was in such a dark place. When the doctors tell me to limit my exercise due to my newest heart issues and to limit my water for the same reason, I just feel so lost. I mean, it is messing with two very VITAL parts of my weight loss plan, exercise and water!!! So today I turned off my alarm clock and decided to have a good attitude. I just need to change my exercise to mild cardio, maybe more walking. I need to drink less water and overall liquids, yes, but I can spread them out more evenly throughout the day so there may still be some effectiveness. THEN, I sat here, and continue to sit here, waiting…..waiting (yet again) for my contractor to get here who was scheduled for 9:00. I stay up pretty late and am not normally an early riser (I like to sleep until about 10:00 in my retirement), but have been accommodating his schedule to get these jobs done. EXCEPT, he does this often enough to tick me off. Oh, how I could have used the sleep! And I don’t need sleep issues on top of exercise and water issues! So, in keeping my promise to myself to have a more positive day, I just want to say that I’ve pre-logged my food for the first time since July 31st, I have already done a Leslie Sansone walking video on youtube this morning and I am going to enjoy my DGS who is here with me for the weekend and I’m going to avoid my daughters food offerings from her mobile grocery store. NSV, however, last night she pulled Russell Stover’s sugar free 5 pc bag of chocolates out of her Mary Poppins bag for me. Sugar Free! Wow, that’s a win! She heard me for once! Have a great weekend everyone!

    08/17 -DNW- (Trend weight DNW ) I forgot my weekly Fosamax yesterday so I took it this morning, therefore, it’s a no-weigh Saturday. Yesterday was not good. I ended up skipping dinner because of too many snacks. Not healthy or right on any level. My stomach just seems to be a bottomless pit right now. I’m hoping for a better day today but already I am staving off hunger. Choices will be key today. Too bad they weren’t key yesterday. I had all my food choices pre-planned and pre-logged but only followed through until lunch.
