    Ay yi yi - me 13/snacks 13

    I gave into peer pressure. I told my husband no eating past 7:30. We all went to the gym at 6 p.m. But when we got home and I tried to go into the basement to work while they eat dinner, I got an unintentional guilt trip and ended up eating dinner, which wasn't unhealthy. But the wine and the bread I could have done without. So snacks is whipping my butt this month. Still breaking even. I have four more days to go. I hate to make the time later (like 8:30) because I end up going to bed no later than 9:30 anymore so I like the two hour rule. Sent him an e-mail this morning yet again begging him to support me on this. Need to not be a wuss and "Just Say NO!!!!"

    Tonight, 7:30

    Jason, you are so boring, man! :grumble: How can you keep that 0 standing? :noway: No mistake, nothing? :huh: :tongue: :wink: OK, OK, let me just say: you deserve :flowerforyou:s

    Lulabelle, I am totally convinced you can make 13 the unlucky number for snacks, where they'll get stuck for the rest of the month. :wink:

    Judging by my mood, you probably figured out that I won last night :bigsmile: : Dew:20 - Late snacks:6.

    I'm still hoping that the others are still with us, just counting on their own. Come on, guys, let's cheer together for May: smiley-happy110.gif

    LulaBelle - My guess is that he thinks your great as you are. :love: Does he say that?

    The snacks last night won at work. I kept away from the chocolate covered peanuts and cheese pretzels that dayshift left for us. (My rule of not eating any of other people's food until my good stuff was gone.) But caved a few hours later when I saw some chips in the department. :grumble: .

    So it's Rose 22 and The Snacks 5

    But ya know what, I feel like a winner because due to this challenge and knowing I'll have to check in, I'm not going crazy like I've done in the past and I'm losing weight like I never have before :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: .

    So even if I "lose", I'm WINNING !!! Isn't that amazing :flowerforyou:

    Hi-
    I blew it again. :explode: If I stay away from mfp, I just don't do well. Hopefully, the negative behavior is out of my system and I can start May with fresh resolve.
    Dewdrop, will you be starting a new thread for a May challenge? I hope so - I really need this.
    Thanks.

    14 for me/13 for snacks.

    I'm tipping the scale. Now to keep it tipped.

    Tonight, 7:30. Easier because I have a meeting at 7:30 and just need to make sure no snacking afterward.

    Okay, finally getting the hang of this. Of course, it's funny that our new challenge will start on the weekend. Going hard and heavy.

    16 me/snacks 13

    Tonight out with the girls, so I'm going to say 9:30, no snacking once I get home.

    (Lula) Lorna: 17 vs Late snacks: 13

    Okay, so it was rough going in the beginning but I think I'm finally getting the hang of it. So I'm ready for the new challenge. For May, my goal is to obviously not screw up. But ultimately, to not let Snacks win by more than 12.

    How did you all do?

    (Lula) Lorna: 17 vs Late snacks: 13
    Dew: 23 vs Late snacks: 7

    (I had dinner too late last night - though it's been just a big green salad with some olive oil and some bread). Although my eating times have varied a lot the past month, I had no mindless snacking (on unhealthy stuff). So, like Rosemary, I think all in all this was a success :smile:. THANK YOU all so much for sticking with this and for being so motivational. :love:
