I went to the gym yesterday but that’s all i accomplished on my list. I weighed myself and have lost two lbs. I had my normal reaction which is to eat like crap. I will feel proud of myself for not allowing my binge lead to a purge.
Stepping on the scale always has a negative effect on me. It doesn’t matter if I lose or gain.

Support my bride: Need to be more patient when she needs help
Eat dinner at the table, unplugged. Don’t eat on the couch:one of two. Snacked on the couch but stayed within my calorie goal
For Wednesday, stay on track during an office day
1900 calories:

I am having a bad time. I keep eating and eating and it’s making me sick and bloated and miserable.
I know binge eating is not a food problem, it’s a feelings problem. I just can’t seem to get to those feelings.

So starting today:
SW Nov 2: 192
1st goal weight: 185
2nd goal weight: 180
ultimate goal weight: 175
weigh in every monday
Todays weight 190.6Nov 1: 192
Nov 2: 192
Nov 9: 190.6
Goals for tomorrow
1. log all food
2. concentrate on drinking water
3.watch inner thoughts ... I CAN get this weight off and feel better.
4. apple in the evening .. and water
5. get back on here. Be accountable
I am so sorry .. I don't know if I got on here, or posted all week. It has been a beautiful week to be outside .. so thats what I have been doing. Today for yard waste .. I had 35 bags of leaves, plus 3 trash cans. I got the entire yard all mowed and flower beds cleaned up and covered with leaf mulch. So by the time evening comes when I usually post.. I am exhausted!
I got all of our outside Christmas lites up also .. and this year I made a display in our backyard. It is so pretty. We figured we would be spending the holidays in our patio room with our daughter. .. and that room faces our backyard. So that is where I concentrated on most of the decorations .. including the globes that a good friend, who passed away last year, had made. And the smaller trees are actually tomato cages .. turned upside down with lites on. (I've since added 4 more tomato cage trees).
Here is a picture:
But I feel good. I am working hard at planning my meals ... tonite I just finished entering "most" of my recipes in a excel spreadsheet, along with a grocery shopping list to try and make meal planning easier. This is where I struggle .. I am always so busy, and meal planning I have never been good at. So .. I am trying this method.
@packerfanin .. you keep mentioning the NOBS weight loss .. so I looked her up. I have watched several of her free videos, and she points out so many good things. So I am trying to do like you are doing .. and listen to more of her podcasts each nite. I learned through weight watchers that no food should be off limit... that I have to learn to eat any foods .. just in moderation. I know all these things ... its just doing them!
So tonite I am sipping on my water ... keeping my commitment to weigh in every monday and be accountable (even though I know this is tuesday!). I may not get on as much during the week .. but at least on mondays for sure.
I will try and read back and see what I have missed .. but hope you are all doing well with your goals!

Hey when will a final count come in for the US election?
Do you find out at midnight or something or is it as soon as either person hits 270 votes?
Isn't this crazy, Bex!! I wonder what the rest of the world thinks of our US elections .. I think this is one for the books. Yes, we do "kinda" know who are next president will be ... but its a mess. LOL!0 -

Today I will have one of my winter traditions. I will light the log burner and open my Christmas edition of Good Food magazine whilst enjoying smoked salmon and fizz. I’ve no idea what Christmas will be like this year (the first without my mum and probable Covid restrictions) but I’m trying not to dwell on things I can’t change.
I remember so well my first year without our loved ones .. my father passed away on Christmas eve.. and every year it is hard, even though its been over 25 years for him now. I will keep you in my thoughts as you celebrate this season. It is nice that you are keeping your winter traditions. With Covid.. so many families will not have the celebrations they are used to having. My husband and I are trying to make this as fun as we can (hence my decorating our backyard for us and our daughter to enjoy).
Hugs to you, and hope you can still enjoy the season.3 -
PackerFanInGB wrote: »@mytime6630 I know this is a hard time of year for you. Something the No BS weightloss program really drives home is that our sabotaging thoughts are still just 'thoughts'. We can control thoughts by catching ourselves and rephrasing them. I've been really working on this a lot myself in the past couple of weeks. So when I catch myself being upset over finances, loss of job, missing my kids, etc....I actually tell myself "It's normal to feel sad about this, and that's okay. But eating ice cream isn't going to change the facts. It's just going to add fat to my *kitten*." or something to that effect. I don't know if that helps, because everyone's situation is different and you have a lot going on, but I wanted to share because self-talk is a big piece of the program and it makes a lot of sense to me. Love to you, my friend.
Thanks so much for that bit of advice. You are so right ... its how we "talk" to ourselves. Because of you, I've been listening to some of her free podcasts and watching her videos. She points out so many things I already know .. its just doing them.
So many suffer from winter depression .. and I am one of them. The holidays have always been so hard for me, and this year does make it harder with covid. But I know I am not alone in that. I can't keep using this as an excuse. So all week I've been working hard at staying positive.. and hubby is helping me in doing that. He keeps reminding me that life can be short.. and we have to do what we can to think positive.. and no that no problem is fixed by food. We are trying to make the holidays as fun as we can .. hence my decorating our backyard LOL!
I would love to have this thread be a discussion of some of these things ... what one person goes through, many times, can help others who are struggling. So thank you for sharing what you are learning and practicing. You also have been through a lot this past year ... you are doing wonderful. I consider you such a good friend.4 -

Yet another day of beautiful sunny warm weather in Green Bay on Nov. 8. Upper 60s wow! Hubby and I could relax somewhat since all fall yard chores are complete YAY! We ran several errands, then took dog to nearby park with creek. Scads of people there, also taking advantage of the unseasonable weather. We enjoyed a leisurely stroll, as did dog. She got petted by friendly kids & strangers, and got to drink from the creek. How fun!
Isn't this the craziest weather!! We have had temps in the mid 70s all week ... I love it! It does so much to our temperament when the weather is nice and the sun shining.
But tonite we dip down to 30 degrees! Glad you are getting out and also enjoying this gift.2 -

I did well until evening, when I snacked on crisps, definitely a case of eating my feelings, so annoyed with myself. I'd had a letter telling me that my widow's pension is going to be cut from my birthday in a few weeks time. I'd no idea this was going to happen, so it was a shock to find out I'll have less income. My other income is from my holiday let, which is under lockdown again and is closed. Ughh. I'm sure I'll be fine, and eating crisps won't make it better! In fact, if I stop buying crisps, that will knock a few pennies off the food bill lol.
Why are they cutting your widows pension? This does not seem right? You are right .. eating crisps does not help.. but its hard not to want to grab them.
Hugs.2 -

Haha I realised you just have so many more people in your country lol. So ours we can vote from 7am until 10pm I think and then they count all night and we find out in the morning I think (trying to cast my mind to the last election we had) but obviously it must take so much longer for your country to count all them peoples votes0 -

JFT Tuesday 10th November
Be "diet aware" yes I was
No snacking had 2 small snacks
20 minute morning walk exactly 20 minutes
Admin yes, made some important phone calls
Bleed radiators completely forgot
Mother's weekly shop (probably evening) yes, it's quieter in the evening, but hard to go out in the dark and cold!
I did snack yesterday, but that made me really not hungry at meal times. So for my main meal I had breakfast muesli, hopefully it will balance out.
@Snowflake1968 I need an indoor project for the winter as well. I'm not sure what to do but do know I don't want to just watch TV in the evenings.
JFT Wednesday 11th Nov
Be diet aware
No snacking

Normally that is how it happens in our country ... the voting pollls close at 7pm, and we usually have the results late in the evening. This year, because of Covid, they allowed mail-in ballots. The weird thing is that about 4-5 states did not even start to count the mail in ballots until after the polls closed. The race was very close .. so its a mess. But hey, 2020 has been quite the year ... why not have the presidential elections be a mess also!
How are YOU doing? Have you found a good place to live?1 -
@HEGoddard0928 good luck today! I love the positive thoughts you have going on!1

@mytime6630 Sounds like you are taking great positive steps. Your yard looks amazing. Post when you can. We’re here for you.
@ZizzyBumble The first Christmas without a loved one is hard, and COVID-19 has made this even more difficult for many people, your a real trooper, and I’m sure your mum would be very proud of how you are coping. (((Hugs)))4 -
LOL how am I doing :P
That is an excellent question.
I'll think I'll just say I've been better.
We do have a new place but not til the 24th.
Alot of cr@ps gone on. Lots.
I've decided I definitely don't want a relationship with my mum, not that I had one in the first place.
I'm still alive and kicking and that's good enough lol things can only go upwards
Through all the traumas I have had in my long life (too many to list 😂) that is the one thing that has always got me back on track.
We have little control over what happens to us, but we DO have control over how we react to it. Learning to reframe those sabotaging thoughts is one of the best gifts we can give to ourselves.
