  • @jugar cw 149 first week that I've worked from home that I haven't gained. It's also my last week working remotely from home :D
  • @jugar PW 151 CW 151 I am ok with that. Beats being up again. Rough week it was.
  • Hi. I'm tired. Stress tired, work tired, BUT also garden tired which is the best tired. Saturday and Sunday - 50,000+ steps in the garden - starting a revamp of the veg garden - lots of things I can't control and lots of areas in the garden where couch grass has taken over - but the veg garden seemed doable. Looking…
  • @jugar pw 148.5 cw 151 2 prepped salads sitting waiting for me in the fridge as I scrambled for crap food. :s
  • after a rough Monday (eating wise) on to a better Tuesday - even though working from home this week, I'm going to set up my salad production line and get 4 prepped for the remainder of this week. I've found 3 key things that I like in my otherwise simple salads - a boiled egg, feta or blue cheese (just a little) and…
  • Hello all and welcome to the new members - here's the accountability you've been looking for. That's what I signed on for Jan 2020 and I'm still here - great support team and teammates. Top weight was about 195 and did great for the first 8 months or so, then tried to 'maintain' and experienced a lot of yo yo-ing with the…
  • I aim to be back on maintenance in the next couple of months. I didn't do so well with my first go at maintenance, yo yo-ed myself right out of my top range. Working on it right now and I feel good.
  • @jugar PW 151.5 CW 148.5
  • Way to go Kelly! keep up the momentum :)
  • @micki48 - thinking of you and hope you report back soon that he's home and recovering. hugs. @jugar that was a speedy amount of hiking you did - all without the fitbit, sheesh. Monday morning - off to work - 3 big salads portioned to start the week - now to do the same for the pickle snacks and my poached chicken/whole…
  • @jugar PW 152 CW 151.5 so happy that I broke the yo-yo!
  • carrots! I've been leaning on carrots for a week - not calorie free but better than what else I might grab. We also always have boiled eggs in the fridge - filling/protein and better than what else I might grab. If you have any tips (other than water, ha!) let me know. and, now, me, back to my desk too!
  • Hello! I have struggled with maintenance...see? But I feel I'm getting back on track.
  • Sunday? Already?? grrrrr.... I have too much to do this weekend for it to be Sunday. I made good choices yesterday (carrots!) when about to stress eat but went off plan when I arrived home after a garden job to pizza already cooking in the oven. Fortunately all my good choices during the day made that pizza not 'cost' me…
  • No snow shoveling here south of Boston - heaps of rain and we needed it - things are very dry. So it's Friday and my work week in the office is over. I feel on a good trend foodwise and will keep at it.
  • @jugar PW 155.5 CW 152
  • Thanks Michelle, There are a few companies right in our vicinity that we'll give a try. I guess the stress is less about getting someone but more about getting the 'right' someone, ha! I'm enjoying the spring changes too - the hummingbird feeder is up, ready for the early birds heading north.
  • I did well years ago on a book called 'The Sonoma Diet' - whenever I tried it again later on, it just didn't work again but I do still remember some things from it and one of those is...starting out for the first 10 day you don't eat anything sweet - not fruit or yogurt - as a way to try to shake the sugar craving. I'm…
  • Monday morning - my week in the office - we got word we'll all be back in June 1st and I'm actually glad - it think it will aid in my eating. You're right @jugar, 'obsessively' is not the way to go, but ...I DID prelog last night before sleep and I'll work off that menu today. I will also try to get going on the walking &…
  • @jugar CW 155.5
  • CW 155.5 I can't even remember the PW - I know this is a major jump up the scale again though. This time last year I was obsessively prelogging my meals for the next day as I lay in bed at night (then could tweak as needed during the day) and I was weighing everything. I must try to return to that state of mind. To that…
  • Weigh in tomorrow - not very excited or hopeful. I have not been great with my eating and no formal exercise these last days. A bit of caregiver stress (rather 'lack of caregiver' stress and hopefully that gets sorted soon...the stress part is finding 2 -3 that are a good fit. Will find out tomorrow what the 'fulltime back…
  • Good morning - man, I've got to kickstart myself - Sunday - not great...who the heck brought the munchkins? and yesterday, even with good choices available I reached for every bad choice. AND my stretch jeans didn't feel so comfortable - that bothers me the most. Tuesday now, working from home - today I'll eat smarter. I…
  • SO! as eggfreak, I'll share some eggs on the menu for this week...love a boiled egg in a green salad! And even just as is, with a little S & P.
  • I'm here I'm here...I did weigh in last Thursday and posted...so you don't have to search back through, PW 153.5, CW 151.
  • belts & jeans...two of the most satisfying things to fit ...when I'd first started F2F, it was with the goal to fit into an old favorite pair of jeans that 10 years earlier I'd been able to wear for about a year. Good to have a clothing goal and not just a scale # to shoot for. I've not been logging this week but trying to…
  • @jugar PW 153.5 CW 151 So the weeks I'm in the office - I'm much more in control. Next week I'll be at home...need to put into action some of the strategies I've gleaned from here.
  • hi, a quick intro, I'm Sylvia,52, in Massachusetts. I've been with F2F for just over a year and it was the accountability I needed. Did well and then plateaued since August and just recently creeping up again as I've really lost my focus & drive. Getting back onboard as I want to fight my way down about 12 pounds....and…
  • Monday morning, @jugar, okay if I jump back in? No sitting on the sidelines this month. My dramatic yoyoing was making me not want to screw up the team stats BUT an energetic sunny Monday morning has me saying 'ENOUGH'. Please put me back in and I'm aiming for a great April.
  • @jugar I did weigh in on Thurs pw 149.5 cw 153.5 I'm going to sit on the sidelines again in April and get myself in gear to at least log in to here everyday, if not log my food!
