After reading all the posts, instead of a push-up challenge, we should have a challenge of mindful choices:
1) Am I eating because I am hungry - or - because I feel ????
2) Do I eat until I am full - or - not hungry
They say that weight control is 70% diet and 30% exercise.
If not this week, maybe next week!!
Yes, I think would be a good one as well. Definitely consider for our 3rd challenge!0 -
Anyone else have issues with SAD? Craving carbs like crazy this time of the year. Love those sunny days!
uh, huh. :ohwell: hoping to keep with my outdoor walking plan all thru winter. not only for the sunlight, but I love how I feel after a brisk walk in the cold outdoors!!0 -

I just finished reading all the posts and it is 9:47am hera and no water yet. Better go get my cup filled and get started. This will be a challenge for me because I tend to substitue coffee for water. This challenge is sure going to help!!!! Fell free to add me and leave me a message letting me know you are from the MCtY group!!! Can't wait to see results!0

Happy Monday all. Just had a healthy packed lunch from home, while my coworkers ordered out mexican food! They suck! lol
This happens a lot, where they eat something delicious, and then I end up craving it like crazy before giving in and eating it for dinner a few days later. And that's only if they don't manage to talk me into ordering with them. Does anyone else have this problem? Hopefully this group can keep me motivated and help me avoid the peer pressure and those cravings.
Also, drank 56 oz of water so far today, working towards at least 80! I'm glad we are weighing in on Wednesdays, it gives time to rebound from the weekends a little bit.0 -

Was able to get out and walk today - nice and sunny here, so it felt good. We get lots of snow here in winter, but I'm thinking a good xmas gift for the family would be snow shoes!! How fun, huh? We could all get some exercise this winter0 -

Ok, I signed up and disappeared for two days! Weekends are my nemesis! I am here now, working on my water for the day. I will try really hard to be on here this week and making sure I get all my exercise in but I do have a wedding cake due this weekend, followed by a ladybug cake for a photo shoot so those things may take me away a little bit. Crazy busy week this week! All the more reason for me to make sure I get some exercise in though since it will help with the stress. The good news is I'm on schedule for these cakes so I'm not looking at any all nighters (so far!)0

I know exactly what you are talking about. Not only is the food tempting but I think just getting away from the office for a while and not eating lunch in our basement breakroom makes me end up giving in more often than not. Also, my good friend at work is pregnant and has all kinds of lunch time cravings! I think this group is helping to keep me motivated and focused, though!0

Here's an interesting article re: cravings vs. what our bodies are really asking for.

right at 8 cups today...but eating has been very bad. carried over from the weekend:frown: I need to workout A LOT to make up for the damage I've done. I didn't sleep well last nite and have been tired most of the day. plan to get to bed a little earlier and walk after waking in the am.
here's to a better day tomorrow! have a good Monday evening MCtY group!0
