@RenaPink11 Oh, btw - this is the reply I made to the same question, yesterday: "I started out by keeping my entries in a Word document, and now I am glad I did - because I have been able read back and make observations about what worked and what did not (for example to see that I always seem to eat more before TOM, etc.).…

@RenaPink11 Yay! Thanks!! I accepted your request! And then immediately saw that you jogged 20 mins last night!! And I was WTH I can't even do 2 mins!! LOL!! So you may not want to be my friend after all!

@SusanMunkner Lentils are magical!! Protein AND fiber!! So amazing!!

Awesome! Thanks for the tip! I downloaded Strava but I will look at this one as well! :)

@GirlOnTheRebound HAHAHA!!!

@RenaPink11 OOH-OOH-OOH!! Can we be friends?? I just started trying to jog, too! And I also was shocked that I can actually do it!! Maybe I should try a couch to 5K! I'm super stoked about it and would love to have you in my corner!! :) Good job on your weight-loss, too! You are killin' it!!!

@SheilaBoneham You and me both, gurl. Make room for me on the wagon, and give me a hand up! You and I can help each other try to be a bit more successful today. Although in reading the posts on here it seems like there are a few of us who are struggling! I think we need to focus on the positive, look for the small wins,…

@GirlOnTheRebound Hey, thanks for that! I am fine. Sorry I have been AWOL! So nice of you to check in. I have been busy with work which makes me tired and so I haven't had much to say. Also, yesterday and the day before I have just been eating anything in sight, to the point where I have given up on logging as I lose…

@musicsax Awww, thank you so much!! You are lovely. I really appreciate your supportive words. :)

@fmfdfa2020 THIS. RIGHT. HERE!!!!! 100%!!!!!

@RockinRobyn672 I use a no-name brand (Equate) but it's just inulin fibre. And nope, I don't taste any difference at all. And I'm picky. Lol.

@begin2023 I'm so sorry about your kitty. They are so easy to love but they break your heart when they leave. And leave they must. Very proud of you for staying on track, and don't worry about not logging 100% - I find it is best to just keep doing your best every day, to form the habit, and it gets a bit easier as you go…

@39flavours Hey - I put a bit of fibre powder in my coffee every morning, to help me get to my fibre goal of 21g per day. Just a suggestion. :)

@shmmm3 Yeah, I hear that. It's pretty challenging to overcome, for sure. :(

@deepwoodslady I started talking out loud to that critical voice. Sounds crazy but I found it helpful. I think just starting to recognize when that voice is starting up is a skill. Then I would contradict it out loud and just tell it to basically eff off and shut up. It is surprising, but after awhile the voice.. well it…

@RockinRobyn672 You're doing great too! Keep up the good work!! :)

@GirlOnTheRebound Aww, thanks, lady. I just find it really helpful to process it here in a space where some might understand. :)

@shmmm3 Hey, I'm so sorry that you had to go through that. It doesn't sound like it was a very fair conversation. From an outsider's perspective, it almost feels as though because you were acting passive the other person felt the could just walk all over you. Either way, you are NOT responsible for that person's behaviour…
