Just a couple of things regarding these message boards.

Regarding to “Woo” emoticon- MFP explained that they changed the face to indicate it is more “WHOA” than “WHOO HOO” a while back. I think they need to make it less ambiguous! I liked using it as either depending on the content of a post.

If you are tagging some one in a post, use the @ symbol and no space before their name and they will be notified that you addressed a comment to them.

@xiaoguai I've seen people comment that if you use an emoji that isn't supported it gets cut off. I've also seen others mention that their posts were truncated for no reason. But, if you notice your post is cut off or has a mistake, you can edit it for one hour by clicking on the gear.

@xiaoguai If you use an emoji from your keyboard it will cut your message off there. You can only use the ones above the box where you type your message.

@kshanee By looking at their graph I can see a pattern, that was why I asked. I was getting a dooown, blip up, dooown until mid-December.

@amfmmama I always read and then make my post. So fat it has worked for me. Tomorrow when I open, my post will be right above my start point.

This group challenge has really been helping me through the fluctuations. I had a really bad tendency to get frustrated and think that I'll never get there. Definitely getting stronger so the slow pace is expected. But I have been a bit lazy on my diet. If I want this I'm the only one who can do it for me.

Round 30 Start = 132.4

1/28 - 132.4 - Sunday weight, deserved, have had a really rocky past few days food wise and feeling wise. Did run 4 miles on Saturday.
1/29 - did not weigh Monday. Up since forever, headache, eating sweets for comfort and didn't even log yesterday. Sometimes what was working stops meaning anything, for just a minute, and I have to regroup

1/30 - 132.0 - I logged yesterday, drank water, and slept last night. Rising again even though I fell (Thanks @holisticpradise for reminding me)

Goal for this round: 212.0

Day/Weight/Comment
01/28 = 215.2. Weekends, you make this challenging. Ate out twice yesterday, at places I love. Also got a little loose with 3 cookies during a movie, but overall nothing was disastrous. I used to regularly gain 3-4 lbs from Friday night to Monday morning, then spend the week getting back down to where I started. A 1.2 lb bump one day is no big deal, particularly when I am on-track for a good day today.

01/29 = 214.6. Gaining only 0.6 lbs over the weekend is a victory. I'm realizing how my issues with eating are an addiction. I'm a psychologist, and much of that work has been treating substance use disorders. One of the things I tell my patients is that I never expect that they will never use again. Instead, I ask them to change their expectations. Work on increasing the length of time between "relapses," and recognize that those longer periods are a sign of success. Equally important is the attitude one takes toward relapse. People often get down/mad/depressed after having a "slip" or "relapse." When a relapse happens, the shorter it is, the better, and the less intense it is, the better. One day of 12,500 calories would be an intense relapse. Three months of leaving MFP and going back to "normal" might be considered a long relapse. Catch yourself as quick as you can when you feel off-track. Realize that any moment is an opportunity to get right back on-track, and be kind to yourself. This is what I'm thinking to myself (or at least trying to) instead of beating myself up at any moment. When I remember to do this, it helps me. Basketball tonight, so I'm excited.

01/30 = 215.2. Meh. How do you non-judgmentally call yourself out for being in denial? Here goes! Somehow I thought a plate full of carne asada and carnitas for lunch (with a slice of bread... No tortillas) was not going to be a problem for me on basketball night. I never gain weight on a basketball night, but even though it was lots of protein, there was likely also tons of salt and fat. I wanted to avoid the scale this morning; on some level I knew. I have to acknowledge that I'm a little disappointed that I didn't think this through a little better. Going to try to stay focused and positive.

Day/Weight/Comment

01/28: 216
01/29: 216.4 ---Expected this rise. Yesterday was our 4th Sunday family gathering and also a time for everyone to celebrate my son's recent birthday, so it was ALL his favorites. And yes, needless to say, ALL high calorie stuff.

01/30: 216

I was hoping down and not another increase.

01/30 186.0 gallon water yesterday; Turbo Sculpt/Walking

I'm embarrassed to admit how many times I weighed myself this morning In total disbelief!! I hope all the changes that I'm making with my health keep me headed in the right direction

I need to get a gallon jug and commence to drinking if it will drop some weight like that.
