STEP AWAY FROM THE PEEPS!0

Added the 330 calories to my food log - now time to salvage the rest of the day! I can still do this! But note to myself - I sure could have used 330 calories in a much better way!0

I just got back from a 50 minute walk in a heavy snowfall. It was crazy fun! I challenge every one in the mountains of Colorado to get out there and enjoy the spring snow befor it's gone!0

2. Eat those veggies.

Joan, I'm new to this thread over the past 3 days or so, but it has been really helpful. I completely understand what you mean about staying on track for 3 days then losing it. We revert habits rather than willpower when things get stressful. I'm trying to think of other things to do than eat now...
Today,
- work out hard this morning at the gym in class- DONE despite poor sleep
- Avoid sweets- NOT done, BUT, I did stay within my calorie goal for the day.
So, I learned that 1. the sweets did not sit well with me after I ate them, I only felt more hungry, 2. I can still have sweets, but stay within goal and have reasonable lunches and dinners.
What helped me avoid totally overindulging: having only a few sweets available to me. I bought 2 cookies out at lunch, when they were gone, they were gone. period. generally, i buy like a box of cookies or an entire tin of ice cream at the grocery store. So, when I get home it's so hard to stop! I wouldn't have stopped eating these cookies today if I had had more of them. So, glad I didn't. AND, from this mistake or error, I learned something useful that I can do next time. So, it's not really a setback .

I seem to be on the up 1 down 1 up 1 down 1 elevator weight wise. I know this will not last forever, but it's hard not to use it as an excuse. After all, if eating well isn't working...... But, I am not going to let this defeat me this time. If I keep doing the right things (at least most of the time anyway) I know someday I will win.0 -

Just for Today 3/25
1. log every bite
2. get in 40 mins cardio
3. do 5 mins meditation I keep forgetting
I have a great NSV. Yesterday I was super grumpy, for no apparent reason. Usually when this happens, I turn to food to make me feel better. We all know it doesn't. Somehow, I made it through the day yesterday without overindulging! I even went to the gym to do my 40 minutes of cardio. I was trying to come up with all sorts of excuses not to, but gave those up and went
1. log every bite
2. gym for strength training (do not worry that you might look foolish, at least you are trying)
3. 5 mins meditation0 -

Had a great weigh-in today. I have been super meticulous all week on my eating and trying to get in anywhere from 1-2 hours of cardio a day. I haven't been eating back my exercise calories, but once I finish this weight loss challenge at work (which ends 5/1/15), I'm going to start putting some in. I can always use more protein and less carbs. I'm a carbs kinda girl.
Anyway I lost since my last weigh in last week when I gained 1.6 lbs and weighed 171 lbs and this week I weighed 164.4, which was a 6.6 lbs loss. A killer week to be sure, I was sick last week and eating everything and it's brother and I think, part of this was water weight, so I think I will be back to 2 lbs next week.
Anyway, Just for today:
1) Get in another 30-60 minutes of cardio this afternoon or tonight
2) Stay at or under my 1200 cal
3) Get in 6-8 glasses of water
4) Get in some crochet time tonight. Didn't get any done last night.
5) Take it one day at a time.
Everyone have a great day and keep coming back and posting!!!0 -
