    Oh I get that New OR2015. I am grateful for the sunshine. I accomplished much down the allotment this morning. Feeling strong and on course which I wasn't yesterday. Today is defiantly a new day and I'm feeling good.

    Ok, so got woke up at 6am by the doggy telling me she had peed on the stairs. Cleaned that up. Back to bed for 2 hours. Got up feeling worse than yesterday. Got on scales lost 3lbs. Yay me (little naked dance round bathroom). As I still have not got my appetite back I will be ok for caIs I think. Had that chocolate I promised myself already. Rest from workout today, bath then bed. Have a good one where ever you are.

    I found out why I was getting the munchies yesterday. Got my period today xD also got some stress pain on my neck and shoulder since yesterday, so no fun workout today, I'll try to run :p
    Today I am thankful for the weekend and the time I will have to prep food for the week :D
    Have an awesome day everyone ;)

    Thankful for warmer weather today and an added boost of motivation to finish some household projects. Cleaned out my three daughters' closets and dressers, passed hand-me-downs around and got rid of two kitchen sized trash bags of clothes. Anybody else's kids growing like weeds?!

    After a second sleepless night in a row, I have been dragging myself around today so really proud of myself for avoiding the easy lunch option of sausage roll and crisps and making a low calorie salad. Yes that's how tiny the steps are right now! Hoping that tonight will be better.

    I went on a walk this morning, and for some reason I remembered what it was like trying to wrap a towel around me before I started this journey almost 7 years ago. I was reminded that, even though I gained weight a year and half ago, and have struggled to get much off this past year, I'm still far from not being able to wrap a towel around me. Ha! Another step toward letting go of that awful time that lead to the gain. :smiley:

    My day today is much like yesterday, watching my grand baby. We are both very tired so we'll both be getting a nap very soon.

    I'm grateful for my husband who is an amazing father and great support. I'm also feeling happy to be staying on track today with my diet and exercise.

    Was a hard nutrition day, but a wonderful family day. I need to plan better, but so thankful for the fun & connection time!

    Wow. This group is filled with lots of encouragement.
    I took the time to make vegetable salad to last about 3days.
    I walked from somewhere I usually go to in a taxi only to realize it just a 26mins walk.
    I'm walking to and fro from now on.
    Have a great Sunday people.

    My daughter poked her head around the corner (to where I was working on a project) to ask whether she could have "more than her fair share" of birthday cheesecake.

    What she meant was, "May I have yours?"

    I said, "Sure."

    It took a while for me to realize that I hadn't even thought twice about it: 'Sure' she could have my slice of chocolate tuxedo cheesecake, I said.
    And I said it without a single pang...

    Its a good feeling right. I had the same when my son made bread and butter pudding at school and I had to pass on it...
