Need to Lose 100 LBS -Robins Thread !

Thursday truth

Today I went out to eat for lunch and I had a big lunch with mashed potatoes for the first time in over a month. I only ate half the serving but I felt so tired and sick to my stomach afterwards. Not sure if it was the large meal or the potatoes but I sure regretted it. So I just had a very light meal (snack really) for dinner and have sworn off large portions for a very long time.

@happygirlxxx I love to binge watch shows I hate watching them on regular TV and have to wait for the next episode. But as a nurse my husband has band me from watching medical shows because I am way to critical of all the mistakes they portray and frequently scoff at the TV....lol

I wish everyone a good night just a short note tonight.

450 minutes of exercise this week ... I did spinning, rowing, pilates and yoga!



Have a great weekend everyone!

Friday - Fitness (what are you doing to get fit? How are you preparing for weekend eating?
Today I am melancholy as I remember my brother G, who passed away in 2012 ... today he would have turned 65 ... an age he knew he would never reach in life. Not because of any other illness than morbid obesity. It stole his health, it stole his ability to be physically active by crushing his spine and eventually paralyzing his legs. It gave him uncontrolled diabetes, It gave him kidney failure, it gave him heart disease ... yes, it was heart disease that got him in the end ... and that was the day I vowed that I would take control of my own obesity because ... my brother and I were shaped just alike, except my brother was 12 inches taller than me. He was my baby brother. He was my best friend. I could talk to him about anything and everything. G ... I am 51 1/2 pounds thinner today than on that day you went to meet our parents and your favorite nephew on the other side.

Oh ... Friday Fitness ... To get fit, I am continuing to alter my food intake in small steps, learning to eat home cooking instead of take-out/drive-through/sit-down restaurant fare. I am also concentrating on being more physically active, preferably in the fresh outdoors. My weekend eating this week will be to use up that roast chicken that I made a couple of days ago by turning it into something else. In memory of my brother, probably a chicken pot pie, in keeping with my low-cal eating, crustless.

Not sure how I gained this week. I didn't do anything that should have caused it. Oh well....hopefully next week it will be better.

Well sadly I didn't make it to work out since Tuesday. I am definitely going tomorrow morning. I have plenty of excuses why I didn't go but in the end it doesn't matter why, I could have gone but found an excuse not to go. Fortunately I still lost weight this week. I will have to do better though.

Hi everyone. My name is Barb and I am new to this community thread but far from new to MFP. Started here in 2012 after suffering from a significant loss. Lost 50 lbs and then gained it all back with a bunch of friends! Lost a little over 30 and then it started to come all back on. Trying to find my motivation from 2012 in 2018 and not towards the end of the year but now. I am my worst enemy and I am the one who makes the bad choices. It is quite embarrassing what I have thrown into my mouth the past few days.

I need to start getting back into being in the community discussions and look forward to hearing all about everyone’s journey, good and bad.
