Being assertive is a tough one for me and lead to EE. Why should I turn to food when I already practice that action and lived to tell about it. :D

Your not alone. I struggle as well. I revisited this group last night and knew I had to stay in touch more often. I've never been one to be a quitter. I had control of this problem before so I now it is possible to do it again. I gave to much of my self away before and Left little for myself. So that's where I'm going to…

Grandkid's came for visit yesterday. Bex963172 they hardy got in car and were at it picking on easy other. Lucky it didn't last long. cesse47 I like the Idea of brushing my teeth when I crave food. Deep down I know it's not about the food. I like to try the 1 choice for health and 1 for self challenge. And the 7 minute…

New here. Looking for ways to stop EE Emotional Eating. I got on top of it before so I just know I can do it again Goals for today plan my food light cleaning pick up mom from hospital step on scale meditation for stress take a walk on beach

Saw this saying:""IT'S NOT THAT I CAN'T HAVE JUNK FOOD. IT'S THAT I CHOOSE NOT TO HAVE JUNK FOOD.""

Exercise first thing in morning. drink more water journal food good and bad.

When I lost my 70lb I used Wii fit as my exercise routine. I would have to weight in daily. Because of the health issues I was dealing with at the time I was glad of the weight ins. I was losing weight really fast because I couldn't eat very much. The scale helped me to accept the thinner me. I have to confess when I…

Oma827 I remember that time well. Enjoy, they grow so fast. Glad we took lots of photos. We have 2 grandkid's.

What this means to me is: I can and will get on top of Emotional Eating (EE ) again by: A. Focus on the positives even the small ones.I will get back to writing down on a posty note at least 3 thing that were positive for the day. Putting them in a pretty tin box I found at a thrift store. B. Dig out my problem solving…

FOOD FOR THOUGHT: "" I AM A STRONG AND DETERMINE PERSON""

food for thought : "I HOLD MY HEAD HIGH" I think being a grandma has helped in this area. I accept my body image better now than when I was younger. It's all in the way we think of ourselves. <3

Welcome new members. :) I've been recording my food for awhile now. Struggling to stay on plan. Depression and fibromyalgia pain make me want to eat off plan. But good news steps are really improved. And I'm hoping that helps the area I need a little work . If anyone wants to be friends with me in spite of my struggle…

JoanD I don't think you will have any trouble. Do as marsellient suggested set calories for 1200 and record less. MFP will still keep track of how many calories you are eating.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT :smile: "I EMBRACE MY FEARS FULLY AND CALMLY." Had a busy weekend with grandkid's. Not sure what the scale will read. So Look out scale here I come. "It will be what it will be !!" :) :#

FOOD FOR THOUGHT :smile: "I have many options and always make the best choices for myself." I think this can apply to many areas of our lifes. Whether it's food choices, to exercise or not (let's face it somedays are harder to get moving than others :) ) I have even had to decide who to call friend. I'm sure we could think…

IT'S A NEW DAY!

A friend gave me a magnetlast night that says : DON'T LET YESTERDAY USE UP TOO MUCH OF TODAY!" ;) :) Isn't that a great reminder.

Thanks friends. One of the best times with grandson was playing( stuck in the mud) we would pretend his animals were stuck in the mud so we would get all he toys with wheels and use them to rescue them. we did this on my big desk. This was one way I could play with him without being on the floor to do it. 2 years ago I had…

bikecheryl, that counts in my book. You will have ahead start. Sorry I was MIA yesterday. Was overwhelmed with the SHOULD'S yesterday actually I think it's been going on longer than just yesterday . Ate to much junk food. On the bright side DH and I took walk at a park and I walked farther than last time. This morning…

For me it's dealing with fibromyalgia pain. If I would just remember the other options I need to try I would feel so much better about myself and it might actually help me cope with pain better or lessen it.

yap! I would like to get fit for the grand kids as well. Fibromyalgia has slowed me down some this past year. Just got done with PT and now I'm on my own with workouts at home. Had to set up lower step goals. Watch out stationary bike here I come. :) Journal food each morning with MFP has become a habit. Now I just want to…

After getting some help for the depression focus on taking the first steps instead of the whole journey. Set small goals for your self. We are all cheering you on.

Working with PT on some limitations so setting the goal small and assuming the numbers will be higher as time moves along. Total steps daily: 3,500.
