    What would I have done differently? Drank more water and not had that sausage patty for lunch (wasn't worth the calories lol)

    So... we are coming to a close of the Spring 2013 check-in. Since March I have gone from 213 to 202.5. Finally got my mind back on track. When my mind is on track so is my eating. I feel like I've accomplished more this check in than I have in a long time. I am happy with my results and hope to keep the pace going. Next week my daughter and I are going to Disney. I know there will be a lot of walking so I just need to keep my eye on my eating. Kudos to everyone who has been checking in. This is the most active check-in we've had in a long time (and I've been doing this check in for 4 years - WOW!). I will be posting a new Summer 2013 check in on Friday. Hope everyone can join in again!!! Let me know if you have any suggestions :bigsmile:

    The old saying goes do not go shopping until you eat. I broke down and bought a chocolate bar before lunch. ;(
    I am tracking my weekends only diary for my nutritionist and I see her next Monday. I can really see how my
    weekend eating is so out of whack.

    but I will return. :bigsmile:

    Thank you all for welcoming me into this check-in group and thanks to goldk for setting it up I started tracking within the last couple of weeks and joined the Daily Check In thread the next day! It's certainly a help and requires me to think and plan every day. I enjoy reading everybody's daily accomplishments and daily struggles! If nothing else, it makes me realize I'm no different than anyone else with the same goals and struggles! I started at 217..........down to 211. My mindset is in a pretty good place so I'm committed to make this happen! I expect to be at GW set for the end of the Spring 2013 check in of 210 on the 21st! Thanks again goldk...........setting little short term goals is not as overwhelming as thinking about my overall goal!
