    Hi-
    Me: 23
    LNS: 3

    I haven't been on computer since my back went out on Thurs. worse than ever before. I am so disappointed. I need to be on a plane in a week so I am hoping the back brace and muscle relaxers will speed up the recovery process so I can get to FL, see my family and fly home without too much difficulty or pain. My sister is flying in from Italy and I don't want to miss that!

    My husband has been an angel. Now, if I could just stop eating the wrong things or so much since I have gained so much weight and can't exercise. I have to eat w/the meds so my perfect record is going downhill fast. It's the least of my concerns at the moment. Just so frustrated. Don't know what I'm going to wear/pack that will be comfortable. And I can't even look since I can't even dress myself at moment.

    Oh well. I am just going to have to relax and enjoy doing nothing right now. Had a great nap yesterday afternoon. :laugh:
    Take care everyone. Time for me to move on - sitting is my least comfortable position.

    Zaza

    I think

    Zaza, I know how that feels like! :flowerforyou: I had the exact problem before a holiday (we also flew to our destination) and I couldn't get out of bed until a day or two before our trip. During which there was almost no reminder of my back pain. As if a magic hand had taken the pain away - which I think was really what it was! Hope your meds work and that you'll have the same experience as I had and will be able to fully enjoy the family reunion! :flowerforyou:

    Well, my parents came for a visit - which was awesome because we didn't get to see them over Xmas. But, it meant "cards" night on Saturday, so, naturally, I had nibblies out ALL NIGHT. And, yep, I succumbed....

    Was sick all weekend (finally feeling mostly better), but it made No LNS that much easier! BUT--my birthday in a few days so I may go crazy then :tongue:

    Until then, I'm going strong!

    kinda.
    I know, that sounds weird, but I'm not going to take my point away for having tasted a fruit yogurt (one teaspoon and didn't even like it).

    I'm feeling pretty good about my January. It's not a PR, or anything, but, I'm pretty steady at just one LNS per week - and I'm totally fine with this! I never wanted to cut it out altogether - because that leads to all sorts of 'denial' issues for me. And, I think I've been pretty steady at the <6 LNS number for 6 or 8 months at this point.

    My perfect streak is no more! Oh well--it was yummy and worth it! But the next two nights I'm out late so I'll end with 3 LNS. I am proud of that!

    Hi everyone :drinker:

    Zaza, poor you, hope you feel better soon. :flowerforyou:

    After a week of total gluttony last week, this week has been super healthy and I feel so much happier about it.:laugh:

    Last week although, as always, I ate healthy, decently portion sized meals my sugar consumption was ridiculous. On Sunday I tallied up the calories of all my sugary treats and it totalled approx 5400 cals!! I was so cross with myself but it made me determined to get back on track this week. Because I am slim and at maintenance and I run lots friends will defend my over eating and say its ok for me to eat like that for these reasons, but its not. No body needs that much sugar or un nutritious food in such whopper quantities.
    This week has been much, much better. Sometimes I find that as soon as I have got through just one day being healthier, it's so much easier to continue. I'm on a roll. :happy:
    With regards to LNS that's gone really well even with last weeks gluttony. I think I'm at

    LNS 4 :grumble:

    Fab work everyone :drinker:

    It is GRREAT to see new Members who join our group...PLEASE feel free to introduce yourselves...we are a BUNCH of friendly folk who also want to get to know you :smile:

    I personally was HUNGRY this evening...and what made me NOT give in to LNS was that fact that HAVE such a PERFECT record. All my calories came from Lunch. It was scrumptious with a bit of dessert that I allowed myself. I wasn't hungry at dinnertime...so I didn't eat...and had to leave for a meeting anyway. I came in after 8:30pm...and my cut off is 8pm...soooo I prepared a HOT cup of TEA...Although it satisfied me, I continued to be HUNGRY...and ALL I could think of was food...LOL...I did not succumb however, and just want to thank ALL my Pals for my being ACCOUNTABLE.

    It is late...and I am heading for bed. Everyone has really done a grrreat job of ALSO being accountabile. Proud of you all. This *is* lifelong commitment. All I know is that when I stopped LNS...my weight did not rise...lol...soooo that is why I appreciate being hungry at bed, like Mar...but tonight was just a bit more difficult.

    WTG everyone...ONE MORE DAY in JANUARY...Have a WONDERFUL Thursday!!

    Keep up the focus!
