I split my exercise time in two sessions so I could push myself a little further than normal!

What are you asking?

I am about 60 days into my journey. Within the first three weeks, I didn't eat out. One night, we were rushed out the door after something happened. I didn't eat anything and didn't plan. We stopped at McD's. The first part of the meal I didn't notice because I was so hungry. The second was DISGUSTING! It made me want to…

This is how I get out of my emotional binge moods. I ask myself "Is this going to make me feel better? Or are you going to feel bad about eating it?" If I say yes, I ask if it will help me obtain my goals. For the most part, the answer is no. And if I really want something after a few weeks, I will get it and enjoy in…

This is spot on. I know what you are going through with the emotional eating. I had a huge blow out fight with my partner two days ago, but surprisingly (for the first time) talked myself out of going into a store and buying some type of chocolate/junk food. Even as I drove passed three stores and two fast food…

With my mother, we have a huge garden at her house and we can what we have extra of. What that 200 dollars buys is discounted meats, rice, beans, potatoes,…

Thank you about Glamorise! I haven't heard of them before. Probably going to try to purchase some from them. Just measured according to their chart and I am bigger than what I thought. >.<

Listen to your body!

Completely agree. I am new to this, but I was guessing the weight of my cereal and milk. When I weighed it, I was over in all my counts. That shows I could be over or under with ANY of my counts. The scales are relatively cheap, but help greatly.

For meats, always shop sales. Or you could ask the butcher/meat department manager what day they mark their meats down. My local Food City marks them down every morning between 6:30 and 7. So I am able to go inside and look at the deals when I pick my hubby up with ease. Shop farmer markets! Especially at the end of the…

Personally, I do not feel okay with saying that my changes are a "diet." I want long term success. Diet implies I am forcing myself to avoid certain foods. That doesn't support long term success. So, I view my changes as a new lifestyle where all things come in moderation.
