I have been slowly making better choices again and tracking my food. I want this month to count, its still hard for me to exercise with some issues but I am now starting PT so I hope this helps get me where I need to be

Well I'm not starting out so great but I am having to replace my fridge probably this weekend. I just replaced my freezer last month. So as of right now we dont have much food in the house. Hopefully that's about to change...0 -

Having back surgery really screwed up my month. Talk about retaining fluids, UGH. My back, legs, arms, feet and hands... (every darn part of me) is swollen. I really feel like I could "POP" me with a pin and fly around the earth a few times. So I'm starting today at a place I feel more comfortable with. My goal is to lose 7lbs this month.1 -

I left MFP for a while and the entire process tanked. (TBH, it was already tanking when I left.)
I haven't weighed yet today; I am using the weight from my last doctor visit (about a month ago), so will edit this post if needed.
Today is DAY 1. I cannot mentally process setting EXACT goals for this week. I am just going to get my butt out of my chair and not eat junk. We'll see where that gets me. When the week is done I will evaluate and make a goal for the month.1 -

I have noticed when I'm not as active on the boards (reading/posting) I'm not as focused on my drive and it shows. I'm still losing, so it's all in the right direction, but I need to keep the focus on me and not everything that is blowing up around me, especially things that I have no control over! Keep control of things I can control...that's my food and water intake, exercise and attitude. July is going to be the month of Dee.

I originally started this journey last August but fell off of the bandwagon. While I am disappointed that I didn't meet the goals I set last year I'm happy that I have only regained 3 lbs. This year I'm determined to set more realistic goals for myself. :-)0 -

I am not going in the right direction!! Biggest problem is there is really no food in the house. Tonight there will be. I am not waiting for others anymore, I need to get food so I stop buying out. Just need yo utilize my crock pot and my rotisserie oven until it gets cooler here. I have been exercising but it won't do much if I'm not eating right. Back to the drawing board........0 -

Not expecting next week to be that good since I will be at a conference all week. Have a plan to eat a snack for breakfast and lunch then a higher calorie meal in the evening so maybe I won't gain or will at least minimize the amount gained. Of course when I bought some snack crackers I had to buy extra for my husband - he's been eating some all week.0 -

I HAVE GOT to do something else because clearly what I have been doing is definitely NOT working! I am so frustrated right now. If this doesn't make anyone think about just giving up, nothing will! I am by no means giving up, just so frustrated! My nephew told me that he wants to go into the military but he needs to lose his weight first.
Maybe I will try what he is going to do to lose his weight. I won't do anything drastic though cause that is usually not healthy for you. Been there done that....will never go there again. But something has to change...and soon.0 -
Hello friends . Going back to OA and am on strict low carb food plan After the first couple of days of H this usually works the best for me. 1
