    Marie you are doing great and a loss this week. I think you have found the ticket to your success. (*)

    So, just for today I will stay on track and log everything I eat, no excuses.

    Just for today I will stick to my eating plan of Readers Digest and drink more water.
    No Yoga class today I skipped it due to more snow to dig out of our driveway.
    I will go Friday instead. Nice that I have the option of Monday, Wednesday and Fridays.

    Shirley what is the readers digest diet all about?
    I am thinking about the prevention fiber diet. I already had the book just never did read it. I am in progress of doing so now. Don't understand it too well yet. but do know I will have o practice moderations portion control which is a bad habit I have, I hope to start on it Friday..if I understand it better than I do now. I for one would welcome whole wheat back into my plan.
    hugs Marie

    Marie,

    Readers Digest is another plan of portion control and different meal plans. They have a plan for two weeks of eating. The first 5 days are hard, just soups and Protein shakes.
    I haven't seen a big loss this time around. I am not sticking to it like it says. I do substitute some of the meals. I will get through it and then see what I will do.

    Shisrley,

    I am hoping I have found a plan I can live with. Going to change my dairy up and just have calories and fiber. I would leave off calories but mFP require that . I thought you had a good lost last week. Keep up your good work. and thank you for supporting me.
    Hugs Marie

    JUST FOR TODAY I will be in the Now (Eckhart Tolle) If anyone has read his book it is really interesting and hard to do in everyday life.

    I went to the movies last night, had dinner at Swiss Chalet and popcorn and the free Lindor chocolates afterward. Of course the scale revealed my night of poor eating. I need to record my weekend eating more which is very hard for me since we go out a lot with friends to restaurants. I need to make a different strategy for eating out.

    Tonight will be the same, we have a meeting with some friends at a restaurant to discuss the Christmas float for our sailing club. I will have to make a good choice tonight even
    though it will be Pub food choices.

    Marie,

    You seem to be doing great with this new plan. Keep up the good work. !!!

    I did not do as well on my thanksgiving weekend, with no counting calories and
    not eating like I should. I hope to get back on track before the holidays so I can
    enjoy them and not have to worry about eating too much.
