Hello healthy ladies! :flowerforyou:
So... lately I've been logging all of my food for the day in the morning. That way i can plan out what I can eat and not feel guilty or worry about it.
Well, I just have to say my favorite thing is when I look over it at night and can remove the things I never got around to eating!!! :noway: And then have a little dessert with my leftover calories! :laugh: (My fave is partially frozen berries with Splenda or a little whipped cream!)
Anyone else log everything first thing when possible?0 -

That dessert sounds DELICIOUS!
I had never thought of logging everything in first, but that seems like it might actually be more effective. I'm not much of a planner, but I agree that planning meals would save me a lot of worry that I'm going over calories in a day. Good idea! Has it worked better for you than entering it after you eat?0 -
Sounds like fun, i'm in :happy: And weigh ins should be wednesdays since that's how the week are written out!!!

I'm hopeless at sticking to a diet for any length of time so hopefully some group accountability will help me keep on track. I'm diabetic so that really causes difficulty when trying to lose weight and work is hectic so I'm just going to aim for 1lb a week, aiming to reach my goal weight of 160lbs by Christmas.

I also try to enter my food early in the morning and then stick to it. Then I have more of an idea what i will eat for the day as well as how well I am doing.
There are homecoming community celebrations going on this week so tonight we went to an "International Cabaret" where you get to try all kinds of food from all over the world. I have no idea how they add up calrie wise (let alone the fact I don't remember what the foods were). But, I didn't go overboard and I think that I did alright! And it was so good! Got to try a lot of different things!
We were supposed to go see the tall ships today, but due to the rain, we decided to wait until tomorrow. So, that's the weekend plans0 -
I would like to join if its not to late. My current challenge will end Aug 31 and with this challenge I know I will be able to continue on with my weight loss.

I do the same thing. I enter it the night before and prep as much of my meals for the next day as possible then I stick to it. It helps keep me more organized too.0 -
I did great with my eatting today. I ate healthy all day! Then after dinner I wanted a cookie so me and my fiance split a cookie (it was a big cookie). Which was perfect because normally I would eat the whole thing by myself. I felt great after eatting almost all natural food today!
I still haven't gotten any exercise in since Wednesday but should have some time tomorrow during the morning and if not then I will go for a walk with my fiance tomorrow night.
How is everyone else doing on their eatting and exercise during the weekend?
Here is to a healthy future!!! Bless all of you that are making healthy changes in your life!

For breakfast this morning I had a broccoli cheese omelet made with 2 egg whites, 1 egg, 1 cup broccoli and 2 slices of cheese. I wish I could learn to eat this without the cheese.
:drinker: Remember to keep drinking that water!:drinker:
I am answering a post from a few days ago fr TCASMEY...
A hint about omelettes. Try using cottage cheese instead of regular, and if you use milk, hold off on adding it, or use about 1/3 to 1/2 of what you normally would put in. You might get a little water separated out of the mixture after it is cooked, but you can pour that off and the results will TASTE fine--the finished product will look different is all. If all cottage cheese doesn't do it for you, try 1 slice reg cheese and add cottage cheese along with it.
I was going to say "Good luck on cutting the cheese" but realized that might not come across as intended, :laugh: :laugh: so let us say, good luck with "reducing" the regular cheese in your omelette!!0 -
Also,
I would like to join in this effort.
I need an intermediate goal between Labor Day and my birthday, which is April 2010, so Christmas seems like a good time. If I can hit my goal, I will be at 175. I will post my starting weight as of tomorrow, as I have been "maintaining" since July 4th week. I have been able to get back on track for exercise this past week, and due to my work schedule, my weekly weigh in day is Sunday, so will update tomorrow

Welcome and congrats for becoming healthier!!0 -
So what did you all for breakfast? I had 2 eggs over easy, 1 piece of toast, and a yogurt with a little bit of kashi crunch.
I had a package of Quaker Weight Control oatmeal, a banana, and a large Tim Horton's coffee with double milk.
Cheers Magg, I'm having a Tim's right now-people just don't know what they're missing.:drinker:0 -
