    Jumping right in. Guatemala was fabulous. I had a great time with all of the kids, worked my tail off in the garden and ate tons of rice and beans and fresh vegetables. We also had lots of "kid snacks" along, trail mix etc. That might have kept my weight up!

    Weighing in this morning @ 137.2 and getting back to NROL4W I have a picture of me in the garden that actually shows some muscle definition. I'll have to see if I can figure out how to post it!

    Now to get back on track. Came home with just enough of a cold to make me feel like laying low for an extra week.
    Missed you all and looking forward to getting back on track!

    Hi i am new here Goldk told me to check out this thread... i am really struggling, especially today and i can use all the help i can get!

    Did you stay within your nutritional goals? not yesterday or the day before, i had mini binges at nighttime.
    Did I reach yesterday's personal goal? no
    What did I do yesterday that I am proud of? i didnt eat anything other than what i brought with me at work, which is a huge temptation spot for me, although i did make up for it once i came home..
    What would I have done differently? not ate anything extra after dinner... totally unneccasary i wasnt even hungry.
    What is today's personal goals? track calories, not go over, make good choices, turn this so far sad/depressed day into a happy one somehow, no binges!

    What is today's personal goals? track calories, not go over, make good choices, turn this so far sad/depressed day into a happy one somehow, no binges!

    I took a nutrition class that has really helped me with stopping my binges ... the idea is to try to keep your blood sugar at the same level all day so that you don't hit highs and lows that cause big cravings. So I'm supposed to eat 3 meals and 3 snacks in balance (eating about every 2 hours) - which means:
    4 oz. protein (2oz for a snack),
    + a healthy fat (like nuts, avocado, butter, cream, may, cream cheese, coconut oil, olive oil),
    +a carb (keep it under 30g for meal and 15g for a snack) ... preferably vegetable, but fruit or whole grain bread, rice are ok
    (for example a meal would be 4 oz any meat, 1-2 cups cauliflower, 2 t. butter, a snack would be 1/2 cup cottage cheese, blueberries and 16 almonds)
    And doing this really helped me stop my uncontrollable eating I used to do late in the afternoons...

    anyhow - just thought I would pass that along in case it helps ... if you would be interested in more info on my nutrition class I would be happy to email it to you - I've typed it up for other people so I can easily cut and paste it into an email for you. Just let me know.
    You can do it!
