    My focus for the week has been to eat more earlier in the day, and get back to drinking enough water. I've been doing this most days and I think it is helping keep the hunger at bay and the binging to a minimum.

    I'm still working through my game plan which is really focusing on bingeing and what to do about it for the first four weeks. I'm trying some different stuff and I think just being aware of what and why is helping. Doesn't mean I haven't eaten too many cookies (oops!) but being focussed on when and why is helping me make some plans on how to stop.

    I'm finding it rough going to stay motivated lately
    there have been alot of upsetting things going on the past few weeks & I havent been dealing with them as well as I should

    Im going to try harder, but we will have a weekend away for the 4th so my food will be over but I should be doing alot of walking so that wil help

    I think the hardest has been that my biggest supporter (we've been doing this as a team) hasnt been around much & I'm feeling kind of lost & abandoned, but this is MY JOURNEY, so I need to get into the mindset that I cant rely on anyone but myself

    I so hear ya on that, I like having support but I find if I rely to much on someone else I just end up letting myself down. You can do this! Felicia's & Falisha's alike will rock this ;)

    Focus! My focus for next week will be nutrition. I'm in a 90-day weight loss challenge at my gym that ends on July 9th; I think I have a fair chance of winning, but I need to spend these last few days on point with my nutrition. For the next 10 days, I'm eliminating all processed foods from my diet. I get to eat veggies, lean meats, fruits, nuts, brown rice, sweet potatoes, sprouted grains, whole milks and yogurts, water, coffee, and tea. It's gonna be a long 10 days.

    Challenge: FOCUS
    I want to focus on my sodium intake this week - and hopefully turn it into a good habit. It's important for my BP health and weight loss. Most days are okay, but some days I go WAY over. Time to start paying more attention to that.

    Reflection: Game plan?
    So I have sucessfully increased my exercise to where I wanted to be. I've even been able to get in a workout over the weekend. :) I did make a new recipie that first week, but not last week. I'm going to search the message boards today for a great new recipie to try this week. I have been getting my 64 oz of water a day, but I'd really like to increase that by 8 more ounces from here on out. Not successful getting all my 1,200 calories a day. Just not hungry enough and don't want to force food in. I have done better than before I started the challenge, though, so that is a mini success.

    As for my game plan, I've done pretty good but I'm slacking on the new recipe thing and the vitamins. I HATE vitamins (ok, I don't mind the gummy ones at all) and the thought of swallowing one of those giant horse pills makes me ill. But, I've got to finish off the bottle before I buy some adult gummy ones. :laugh:
    I tried to find the Adult Gummy ones here in Canada, and haven't had much luck yet :P I am continuing to steal the Flintstone ones from my kids till then... If I take it when I give them theirs, I never forget :P
