    I need to conquer late night snacking

    These homemade gummie bears have really helped me curb my late night snacking. They're sweet, a little chewy, surprisingly filling, 0 net carbs and only 30 calories if you ate the whole batch. I'm guessing they had a lot to do with my 4lb loss this week

    Looks fab, what did you use in place of cool aid, or did you have that?

    @digger61 - Wow! Fifty pounds down! 🎉 That is so impressive! 🎉 Feeling well and being healthier are such great rewards!

    @TeresaW1020 - Brilliant, getting a loss even with the baby shower over the weekend!

    @Jactop - Thanks for sharing about the Guiltless Gummies! They look like something my husband might like, so I may be making him a batch.
    The inspiration is mutual. Your workouts always impress me!

    @Barbonica - Wow! You took off like a rocket this week! So glad for you!

    Weigh in week: Week 1

    Previous Weight: 206
    Today's Weight: 205.6

    Weekly Challenge: I need to work on 3, 4, and 5 the most. I'm going to start intermittent fasting every other day. I've tried multiple days in a row before, and always ended up binging on sugar and junk food. I'm also going to wake up earlier and run on days I eat breakfast. Gonna focus on that for the next two weeks and go from there.

    Tuesday check-in: Made the mistake of sitting down with the container of frozen yogurt last night and overrate. My head is back in the game today after a weekend of splurges. I plan to do some stretching and my strengthening exercises from physical therapy to strengthen my core, plus spend some time on the recumbent bike.

    Have a great day everyone!

    Introduction
    I'm Marki, and I'm from Oklahoma. I work in higher education assessment after teaching higher ed ESL for 111.5 years. I'm new to Mission Slimpossibles and F2F this month. I came back to MFP last month after I stepped on the scale, and it read 341 pounds. That was my line in the sand. I said this far and no further. I decided then and there that I had to make a change. That was May 5.

    Since then, I've made several changes: I eat at least 5 servings of fruits and vegetables every day. I'm even trying new ones; I have fish at least once a week, which is up from MAYBE once a year; I have eliminated soda and replaced it with water, unsweetened tea, and Crystal Light; I have reduced starches down to the occasional breading on something or a small amount of pasta or rice.

    For exercise, I'm pretty much limited to swimming because I have a degenerative joint disease, and I'm trying to hold off a hip replacement and a spinal fusion. Losing weight will help on both of those fronts.

    Last month, I lost 13.4 pounds. I'm really looking forward to another successful month and hope to get to know you all better. :smile:

    So inspiring! I love the changes you have made so far - two thumbs up!

    Brilliant loss @Jactop ! You must be thrilled!

    I am!!! My weight rarely budges regardless of what I eat or how much I exercise. I think it's a combo of avoiding some recently discovered allergens and a fondness for guiltess gummies

    I am finding the same thing too! It can get kind of frustrating but I am starting to accept it as life right now. It would be nice to see even a little drop regularly but not so far. It gives me comfort that I know someone else in the same situation.
