Kudos to you! I had to post 2 pass days back to back! Agonizing. Definitely unplanned - but an opportunity to meet some new folks at the Italian American Club. We had the best time! But oh it messed me up. And the day before- again unplanned - went to see the movie The Music Man - had not seen it before - again another fun evening. But I had the popcorn & drink. So we get back at it!
And I agree - a great group of folks here.

@SmurfBunny3 when I started I said yes x 3 every day for a year and nothing else. Rick would tease me about how much I had to say.
Once you find your comfort level you just roll with it. 3 -
Rick! Welcome back to the high desert! It is really beautiful here.
I have had to cut back my activity level to a few days a week now...and then my usual walking that I really do not count. I will be walking/running this am (Saturday)
But for Friday. I planned my food and ate what I tracked! HOORAY!
I tend to eat too much to soothe pain so I am happy I stopped that and am searching for another way to soothe...and it has been successful!3 -
@RangerRickL You clearly struck a chord with a few of us on the Sonoran desert photo, it's absolutely beautiful. I just refreshed my living room and am about to hang a massive desert photo on the wall today.... For a second I considered the steps I'd need to take to convince you to sell the high resolution version so I could make a switch! Lol dont worry if I make one more change hubby will kill me, I have to stick with what we have. Just saying though, THATS a georgeous photo!
Yes x 3 for Friday3 -

Hoping this week will be easier to stay with food plan

I got frustrated today because, once again, no dinner plans had been made and we ended up going out. Hubby wanted Golden Corral. I was convinced I would go over and considered quitting this group because I didn't want to post two pass days in a row so early in the month. HOWEVER... I ended up loading up a plate with salad, and on a second plate I placed a small piece of meatloaf, a small serving of mashed potatoes with a spoonful of gravy, a roll, and some steamed carrots and green beans. Took one bite of the roll, wasn't that impressed, decided it wasn't worth the 180 or so calories and tossed it. But I ended up eating two overloaded plates of food for only 655 calories, and I left there feeling more than satisfied. And I am... under goal. With room left for a little wine tonight. BOOM!

I usually don’t comment in this thread, sorry, I know that’s what MAKES a challenge successful!!!
@SmurfBunny3, “I got frustrated today because, once again, no dinner plans had been made and we ended up going out. Hubby wanted Golden Corral. I was convinced I would go over and considered quitting this group because I didn't want to post two pass days in a row so early in the month. HOWEVER.” Please don’t feel you should quit this qroup if this happens EVEN if you do go out! Your still an important part of our group....
In winner circle is only part of it, THE part that matters is everyone is here to help you through your struggles in your journey of getting healthy..... You will have bad days even weeks but the important is to get right back on the horse, we’re human! Every single one of us struggle just like you, I don’t keep chocolate in the house....that’s my trigger food....
Rick, I hope I didn’t over step my boundaries......I love challenges like yours that everyone is soooo supportive, thanks...
Btw, outstanding will power going to Golden Correl........

Came down with something that knocked me on my butt. I was running at 2% today. My husband said I was running at 0% but I say 2% because I did get up to pee.1 -

@SmurfBunny3 You are correct, Golden Corral has LOTS of temptations, but if you are “in it to win it” there are lots of good choices as you made. Good job.1
