    18 me/4 snacks.

    Great job Rosemary. Enjoying yourself is very important too.

    Went away to the beach for the weekend for a "kidless girls time" and we had a blast, ate lots of yummy goodness, but didn't walk away miserable. Went to a club and danced away my calories, although I ate late. But I'm still only 4 down, so I'm pretty impressed.

    18 me/5 snacks.

    I let stress get to me (family in town) and ate unnecessarily. But I'm back on track today!

    Rosemary - Going to look into that book.

    Fivedaily - so what's happening? Hope it's going well for you. :drinker:


    I seem to overeat on the weekends and when I'm working (-work mostly weekends). So if I weigh myself on Monday I weigh more. But when I'm off during the week, working at home etc, and eating less I weigh less before the weekend. Strange, huh :glasses:

    Best to everyone tonight!!!!! :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

    19 me/6 snacks

    Wednesday nights are tough as long as their is ice cream with kids. Have to figure out how to change that. Too much stress eating. I don't want to give Snacks over 7, and I only have 6 more days to go.

    Welcome and good job on keeping it to the single serving, Margaret. We love to have anybody join anytime and we kind of fit the rules to our own situations. Most people set their cut off 2 or 3 hours before bed and then just have water or tea after that. Keep a tally - either monthly or as you go. (ie. tomorrow you would be Margaret 1 / Snacks 0 ). Best to ya :drinker:

    Funny you should say that because I actually did stay up 2.5 hours after my last tiny bite of snow cone, so I'm going to give it to myself Thanks as always Rosemary.

    So...Me 21/snacks 5

    Welcome MargaretA. Great having the support.

    Dew - Never far from our thoughts. Hope your world is growing strong.

    Me 21/ Snacks 5 (I'm not really trying to copy you Lula - just came home starvin) :drinker:

    Stopped at the local "Health Food Store" and they sure have branched out with unique food, etc. Thinking of doing a detox/anti-inflamation diet for a few weeks before I work on hormonal issues. (That book I mentioned) It's going to take a bit of preparation first though. :drinker:

    24 me/6 snacks.

    One more night.

    Rosemary - How are we doing this? Starting new challenge for the month of September of week by week? Whatcha thinking my lovely lady?

    Dew - Always thrilled to see you peek your beautiful face in. Hope your world is continuing to go wonderfully.

    I like week to week, but it's a good idea to keep track of monthly success or even stretches. It's kinda weird though since the month starts in the middle of the week. Whatever you all want to do is fine with me. It's nice to have a continuing thread and hear what all is happening with everyone. I'd join the "women 50+" but it's too big and I can't keep track of that many people. I want to be able to encourage everyone involved and get boosted up in my efforts too. :heart:

    Me 24 / Snacks 6 (Was busy most of the shift and came home starving) :grumble:

    Final for me and the month of August
    25 me/6 snacks

    I finally did it. I was good over 75% of the time.

    I'm going to start a thread week to week. I'll post on Mondays with the post to start Monday night? I'll post the thread here when I finally get it together :)

    Great job everyone!
