No exercise yesterday. Had a gym workout planned but after getting my pre-op covid test they told me I have to be on quarantine until surgery, so the gym has ended and will not be able to restart until at least 30 days after surgery. So no winner's circle for me this month. However I will do my best to stay on track with…

Yes, yes, and yes. A good day.

yes, yes, yes. A good day.

Yes 3 times, and though I have used no pass days yet there will be no winner's circle for me this month. I am a bit down tonight. I have a health issue I have not mentioned, its kind of embarrassing. Thursday I am getting surgery for benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), not life threatening or anything, but embarrassing and…

Yes, yes, and yes. A good day.

Yes, yes, and yes. A good start to the month.

Back from my fishing trip, vacation part 2 and anxious to get back in. I did not make the winner's circle in September, but did ok. I lost about 3 pounds in September and have been trying to stay in maintenance so I am happy. Will try for the winner's circle in October. Thanks for doing this Rick, it is a great thing.…

Yes, yes, yes. However as I suspected I was out of cell coverage for about a week, so no logging and lost my day count. It was worth it, had a great time houseboating on Lake Powell. Now getting ready for part 2, a Louisiana fishing trip. As predicted, no winner's circle for me this month, but I am looking forward to…

Yes, yes, and yes. However the exercise was limited to cleaning, packing, and prep for vacation. I am headed to the gym this morning though.
-
Yes, yes, and yes. A good day. I have had lots of problems with MFP, some times posting my food can be a real hit or miss thing. And now when I update my weight it does not show on my home page thing. Getting to the groups can also be a challenge, I have to try a few times some days. But so far have been able to make it…

Hey Discovery, another binge free day, good for you! As of September 11, 2020: Rob - 11 The Binge - 0 Days binge free - 486 Working on one more day!

No real exercise, otherwise ok. Pass day 2.
-
Good for you discovery, no binge yesterday is great news! Hey just so you know I was over 60 years with regular bingeing often more than once a day. And I know I am now only 5 minutes away from my next binge. I probably always will be. One day at a time I am trying not to. Being over a year binge free does feel good, but I…

Yes, yes, and yes. A good day.

Hey Rashel, I know this advice is too late, and I hope you did well the rest of the day. If something like this happens again my advice is always to try to focus on doing the right thing going forward. Don't worry about your calorie total for the day, or what is past, just focus on getting back on track. Not trying to make…

Good for you!! You have every reason to be excited, and us for you. Keep up the good work.
-
Discovery, good for you! Lamlam, just focus on today, adding another binge free day is a lot more important that what happened yesterday. You can do this! As of September 9, 2020: Rob - 9 The Binge - 0 Days binge free - 484 Working on one more day!

Yes, yes, yes. A good day.

Thanks for posting this! And your body looks just fine, nothing to be ashamed of. I have a lot more lose skin than you do, I have lost more weight and it is more recent. Also I think I am a little older than you. I have not worked up the guts to do what you have done, but seeing your post gives me a bit of courage. And…

Good for you! It doesn't get any better than that, its what it is all about. Now keep up the good work, get through today as well!
-
Yes, and for me accepting that it was never going to happen has been real important. No more likely than waking up taller, younger, rich, or better looking!
-
Yes, yes, and yes, a good day. Keith, I second what Suzi says, dill pickles have nearly no calories and can dampen the hunger. Hang in here with us and you will be fine!

I have avoided this thread, the title turned me off. I do my best to avoid gloom and despair to focus on the positive. I finally opened it and have been reading. There is a lot of wisdom here, for example: For most of the people reading this thread this is absolutely true! There are people who can eat intuitively and be…
-
I agree, the hard thing for me was realizing that my eating was not going to change on its own, and I would never lose weight if I did not figure out how to manage my urges and eating desires. I remember a time when I always envisioned myself as trim in the future, but without envisioning how I would get there. Now I…

What a great response PAV! No doubt the best advice I have seen on maintenance, it is really appreciated. I don't have a lot of time right now for a proper response, I will get back later. One comment however, you said: "Numbers of 1000-1200 for rapid loss and 1600 for maintenance don't quite jive." and I agree. I have…

I am looking forward to seeing your recipes. My absolute favorite was slow cooked pork butt. I would get the largest I could find and put it on a low burn with a lot of smoke for 18 hours. Great falling apart smoked pork, delicious, pre-diet I ate it by the pound! Now a thing of my past. But I still have the kamado that…

Eat right for the rest of the day. Already been to the gym, so I got my exercise!
-
Yeah, sometimes I think of it as today is the last day of the first of my life, LOL! It is much harder to commit to changing things for the rest of your life than for committing to today. However if you can make a change today that's a big deal, then you can work on it again tomorrow. That thinking has helped keep me binge…

Discovery and Tinker Bell, good to see yesterday was binge free for you! It was for me too. September 7, 2020: Rob - 7 The Binge - 0 Days binge free - 482 Working on one more day!
