    azulvioleta6: Wow! How exciting! Hopefully you'll be able to truly celebrate tomorrow! That is an incredible accomplishment :):):)

    As for me, a little stomach flu goes a long way for helping to keep one's calorie goals, Ha ha! No exercise coz I was on the couch all day, but I may get the last of my fluids down yet.

    Yesterday... Stayed on track with my calories/carbs and drank lots of water.

    Just for today...
    I will log everything I eat and stay within my calorie/carb limits. I will also continue to drink plenty of water and be kind to myself.

    I did pretty good yesterday in hitting my goals. there was one unplanned bag of peanut mm but I also walked 4.4 miles after work that I hadn't planned, so I'm calling that a wash. I'm more happy about the 22,500+ steps I did yesterday.

    JFT Tuesday: 1. don't eat the granola bar until after work and even then only if I'm going for another long walk. 2. Make sure I move around at least once an hour during work so I don't completely stiffen up

    Like I said last nite, being sick has its "advantages" and I am down another pound :) ...good for the old motivation, although I certainly am not wanting to have to go thru that again!!!
    JFT:
    1. Stick to calorie goals
    2. 3+ pints water/tea
    3. Exercise 30+ minutes

    yesterday went pretty good. I am starting to feel motivated again. I cleaned out my closet because clothes were too small. It actually motivated me to try to get back to where I was before but for now I had to purge them. I will set them aside for now and see if I can hopefully get back into them.

    JFT 4/21/15

    1.) go to gym at lunch for strength training
    2.) get in cardio after work for 30 min or more

    Ok, sorry. I keep using my own smiley's and killing my posts. So, let's try this again...

    Hello MFP peeps!

    Just for today:
    -Log every bite!
    -Do something! Exercise!!
    -Be positive.
    -Be thankful.

    Looking for friends to motivate. :)

    Something I need to remember when I want to grab some ice cream or sweets! The short satisfaction I get is not worth the end result - craving more sugar, scale not moving, etc!
