Hi all, this looks like an interesting, fun group if there's room for a newcomer. I'm only about 5 weeks on the app, and just getting around to exploring the support possibilities, and you all seem friendly (and very well acquainted!). It'll take me a whole to catch up on the convos!! I'm Karen from Seattle. My only goals…

And, btw, I loved that the airplane seatbelt seemed longer than it used to!

That's okay, we're holding your seat, so here's a hand to help you climb back on. Let's keep going from here! YOU CAN DO IT!!! Nothing tastes better than wearing a size smaller (when you have a couple lbs to lose) feels...

Me: 5 - LNS: 1* I don't feel bad about it though. It wasn't full-on LNS, just went to some friends' party, but it was still eating after 8pm, which was my definition of LNS for the challenge. Didn't even do too badly with my choices at the party, so it's all good! :)

That's not sad, ptsmiles. You're up by 1 on LNS, that's good! And you can win another victory tonight! Just figure out now what you'll do instead to distract yourself... You can do this! :smile:

Thanks for the challenge! Facing off with this persistent demon is really helping me, in multiple ways! Me: 5 - LNS: 0 (unless a glass of wine while purging my closet of plus-sizes counts against me) New lowest weight in 16 years!!! Whoohoo!

Me: 4 - LNS: 0! Kickin' some LNS butt! Thanks for the challenge! And great job to everyone with 3+. 'You can do this' to everyone struggling more. Don't stop at setting the goal, make a strategy for how you'll beat the impulse when it arises. You CAN do this!!!

Don't feel bad. Intentions aren't enough. It's nearly impossible to replace 'something' with 'nothing'. You need a strategy of what you'll do instead to break the rhythm when the impulse strikes. Pick something that's hard to eat while doing, like painting/crafting, brush the dog, dust the baseboards, whatever. Just have a…
