Just checking in and hope everyone is having a great Sunday. Back from church and trying to decide what I will have for lunch.
I am so happy that I was able to stay on track this week. Will weigh on Tuesday and truly hope I will see a loss since I have been able
to get in more exercise this past week.

3lbs is a great weight loss jen and the inch loss is fantastic, well done.
Well it's 7pm here in the UK and I've eaten all my calorie allowance and feel pleasantly full but still I'm having to fight against the munchies, why oh why do I want to continue to eat even though I'm not hungry, if I didn't have to fight these urges every evening losing weight would be relatively easy.

Linda... Keep your mug, glass, whatever full of liquid. Do something to occupy yourself. Go for a walk, browse the Internet(shopping can be very therapeutic), read the success stories on here, plan your meals for tomorrow, or sometimes, if all else fails, I just go to bed!!0 -
Thanks Connie, I'll take your advice about the full glass and I'm keeping myself busy reading the forums. I find it easier in the summer when I can go out walking in the evenings but it will be another 6 weeks yet before the evenings are light enough to go out. My favourite program of the week is on the TV soon so that will keep me occupied for on hour and then it will be time for bed.

Marie, Good to hear Alice can fix your computer. It must be frustrating, but you will be back up and running soon. Your have a great daughter to help you.
Abakan - I agree with Connie, keep your thermos full of water with a lemon in it. You have a pleasant tasting drink and it will keep your insides clean. Sometimes we are hungry because we have not drank enough throughout the day. Sometimes we are bored then we start looking for food or snacks. Maybe this will help.
Today I finally got downhill skiing. Last year I never got out due to the awful winter we had.
We had tons of snow and sometimes were not able to get to the resort. Anyway, no excuses this year and it felt great to get out. After my DH retires this year we can start going during the week.
next winter. Its a nice calorie burn.

Staying on track today! Went to a dance class today, danced my behind off. Well the weigh in will tell that. LOL.
Hope everyone is staying on track also.
DH apologized for bringing home Cinnamon Rolls the other day. Said he just didn't think about it. He knows that I have NO will power when it comes to sweets. He said he would not do it again, and wants me to succeed.

Valerie glad to hear there may not ever be anymore cinnamon rolls in you house. You have you a good support there.
Its still warm outside but crazy windy .But think I will grab a walk in.

Thanks Marie you are right, he is a good guy. I've had him around for 35 years, I think I'll keep him. No guarantees that he will not bring home cinnamon rolls, he just won't offer me one. LOL.0

My food diary is open if anyone wants to see what I'm eating. It took awhile but now my hubby knows not to offer me any food, not even a bite of something.
