UGH. Idk what it is but I am just not doing well with calorie counting right now. I start off good and then later in the day I just don’t care and start eating whatever. Any tips on how to overcome this behavior? I think I may need to start eating smaller more frequent meals so I don’t feel like I’m dying or whatever. Been a little stressed and depressed as well which certainly isn’t helping. Really disappointed I’ve put over 10lbs back on. 😞
Big time agree with @Megan_smartiepants1970 - Pre-log so you can adjust when things come up. That's a biggy.
Are you keeping a lot of snacks/sweets around the house that you can get rid of?
I have thrown away a lot of chips which are something I tend to snack on a lot but we've been eating out quite a bit and of course those meals are usually 1,000+ calories per meal.
The struggle is real. I'm not much of a cook so I feel kind of stuck right now.
When you are eating out look at the menu online beforehand. That way you can find the best choice to make ahead of time. A lot of restaurants have a calorie friendly section.
When I was eating chips more often, I bought the Halloween size bags. My husband put them on a self I couldn’t reach and he was in charge of getting them.0 -

Body composition scale is telling me I am losing fat at slower rate than I am building muscle. Scale shenanigans! My Fat was actually below 100 for the first time ever since buying this scale. So I am actually excited about this weigh in even though I am up 5 pounds.2 -
Hi! Just popping in for a few minutes. We have been busy visiting family the last week. The weather has been damp so I have been experiencing a lot of pain. I will be glad to get home on Friday evening. I have not been eating too bad. We mostly eat our main meal at noon as that’s when my father-in-law eats. I am not moving around much as we are usually sitting with our parents. My Dad had a bad fall just before we came so he hasn’t been feeling well. He landed on his face so he has a concussion and his entire face is bruised. It looks like he has a beard. It’s hard when our parents are aging and start having health issues.
I have decided to weigh in Saturday when i get home and face whatever the scales say. I don’t think it wil be too bad but you never know. 🤷♀️

Sorry I’m late, we’re traveling and it went right by me. Also, my mind went missing last week and I entered 10 pounds more than I weigh! I’m taking it as an unconscious symbol of how I see myself. Hmmmm…
I will need a pass next Friday as we will be traveling again, if that’s ok. Thanks for your patience with me!

Slow and steady.
Need to get back down to 142.2 pounds to get back to the weight I was on May 20th.
Down 26.5 pounds from my highest weight in 2016.

Sorry to hear that your time away isn't going too well.
Hope your pain lessens and that your dad heals quickly.
