Awesome 😊

Add me if you like 😎😊

Yes!! This what I am striving to achieve! I’ve been insanely restrictive in the past and yo-yo dieted my way up to “oh crap”. Needless to say I think my metabolism/ hormones might have taken a real hit, so I’m trying to keep things as friendly as I can on my body… slow is the way to go and I’m thrilled with it! Thanks for…

Thanks for the input. This makes a lot of sense to me too. Normal human being way of eating to me- is eating a normal meal with my family, not leaving the table still feeling ravenous, eating the bread instead of the rice cake (which I don’t mind but sometimes…) Going out to dinner without fear, just living without my mind…

It really is amazing how enjoying your meal and filling up a little more then, than cutting back a little too much and fighting that hunger later on. I’m really happy with how it’s going too! We’ll get there 😊

Totally agree with above posters, not all things work for all people. Sounds like you need to give yourself a little bit of room and let your mind settle a bit. In the past I would binge and restrict continually, for many years actually and it started exactly as you describe your day currently. I did have to stop all the…

Thanks AnnPT77 and everyone that offered their advice. I’m taking it all in for sure. Unfortunately I am the one who always thinks I have to make it harder than it should be, almost next to impossible for most people, especially me, to keep up with. My goal now is slow and steady, build up the healthy instead of tear down…

Exactly what I’m trying to achieve. To actually lose and maintain my weight loss in a normal human being way! It shouldn’t be tricky! Thanks for sharing!!!

Thanks so much for all the info! Really appreciated!

Binge and restrict has caused me 20+ years of yo yo dieting. For me, I’d eat a diet that was less than satisfying and after a few weeks restricting and eating things I normally wouldn’t, was a ticker towards a binge and then I would feel guilty and restrict again. The answer for me was to stop the unnecessary restriction,…

Hello

Good job... that’s exactly how I stopped drinking my colas. It worked great for me. Haven’t had one since christmas!!!

Me 8 LNS 4 I must say - this challenge is helping me more than I thought. In the snacking tug of war, it’s that one extra set of hands on my side

Me 5 LNS 2 I got incredibly busy with work and my shop that sometimes gets me thoroughly consumed that I wound up skipping my lunch and afternoon snack ~ needless to say... I was ravenous and gave into my cravings after dinner!

Me 5 LNS 1 So far so good!!! This weekend will be a little tougher but I’m going to give it everything I’ve got to stay in control, don’t want to throw too much caution to the wind! Have a great weekend everyone!

Oh I am so in. Add me too if you’d like! Thx

Me 3 LNS 1 Super surprised that last night I managed to not snack when all my brothers came over to watch TWD! There is hope!!!

I have to be in this!!!!

Oven roasted zucchini chips, spice them as you like, they are delicious. Roasted chickpeas with salt and some garlic. Greek yogurts like key lime with some coconut and pineapple are so satisfying. Triscuit thins with a little brie and salsa. fudge pops are low in calorie and a great substitute for ice cream.

I could have written this!!! I'm into smaller clothes but my weight has been trickling VERY SLOWLY down. I think focusing only on one means of measurement can be misleading and result in frustration at times.

Sometimes you might just need to sleep instead. But consider going for a nice brisk walk. Maybe go for a 30 min walk at lunch when the sun's out and it's warm and lovely. You don't need classes or a gym for that ... all you need is a pair of shoes that isn't going to hurt your feet. [/quote] Completely agree ^^ 100%

If you need to take a break, than by all means, take a break. I'd just make sure to set some ground rules so it doesn't become a free for all ( it happens!!). And as others have said.... switch things up if you are finding your exercise plan is a little too much. Do something you enjoy so you won't get bored by it. For…

There you go.... That's really all there is to it!!! Great work getting back on the "wagon" ;)
