Closing in on 30 days 'Clean'

They have the medallions for food addicts as well - OA Overeaters Anonymous, same 12 step program as AA but for food addicts

very cool to know... I've been to OA meetings in the past and had no clue they also gave them out. But I never found a comfy meeting so the idea sorta faded. Gonna try it again... support in all ways can help... well, long as it's a healthy route.

Are you familiar with OA personally? If so I'd love to hear more .... I realize it's supposed to be anonymous but would love to hear what others experiences are. PM is fine if it's more comfortable for someone.

Just an update, I have lost 23 pounds in 46 days. Half a pound a day,I will take that. I want to lose between 100 & 120 more. If I keep up the half a pound a day pace, I may get close to my goal by New Years!

I know it will be hard to keep up that pace, especially as I get lighter, but I am doing so well, and today I am 46 days 'clean'.

No junk food, no snacks, no cravings. Going to the gym 3 -4 days a week.

My goal to lose at least 2 lbs a week is 2400 calories a day intake (2700 a day if I go to the gym),and I am usually coming in 200-400 under every day.

I used to hate yogurt, but now am hooked on it. A few different brands, Chobani Almond coco loco, and Dannon coffee yogurt(freeze it, it's like having coffee ice cream)

Also,cant stress this enough, water,water,water. On days where I drink hardly any water, I don't lose anything. On days when I drink alot of water, the next day, the scale seems to always show results!

The most importamt thing I do is log into this site every single day and count the calories. I want to challenge myself to login for 365 days in a row. Every day I login, it's a day I know I am on track.

Just curious how some of the other people that responded to this thread previously are doing?
