I haven’t done planks before so I’m just going to do 5 20 second planks each day.

Your soup does sound lovely. Could you share the recipe, please? Thanks!

Did they at least taste good? The pecan roll I ate was way too sweet. I think my taster buds are resetting

So I went out to lunch with a friend yesterday and chose what I thought was the healthiest option (mahi-mahi tacos). I did ask for a nutrition pamphlet but they didn’t have one. I don’t know what got triggered but I was starving for the rest of the day. In the evening I ate a pecan roll (probably about 600 calories). This…

Week 2 — Start Weight: 187.2 Challenge Goal Weight: 167 Weigh-in #1: 182.2 Weigh-in #2: 181.0 A positive thought I had this week was: not missing sugar. A healthy snack/meal I chose this week was: tricuits with hummus My most effective workout this week - 3 miles on the treadmill

Paper works best for me as well. Love lining through completed tasks

Feeling pleased. Went to fill up the sugar bowl today and realized that I have not added sugar to anything for 2 weeks! Not even missing it.

Keep going, you’re doing great!

Thanks to all for responding. I am not doing much exercise yet, just 30 minutes on the treadmill, so I don’t think I’m adding enough activity to make myself hungry. Once I kick it up a notch, perhaps I will need those extra calories but for now it seems like I’m getting enough food, even on 1200 calories. —Carol

Today I am feeling determined. Sometimes we choose our feelings and sometimes they choose us. Today with a positive outlook towards the next 11 weeks, I am choosing to be committed and determined to reach my goal. Everybody have a great week!

Week 1 Starting weight - 187.2 Challenge weight goal. - 167 Current weight - 182.2 Positive thought - I’m building new habits by my every effort Best snack meal - 1/2 a whole wheat pita with Corn Black Bean Salsa and avocado. Yum! Most effective workout - I’m starting slow, so I’m more pleased that I did 6 of 7 days on the…

Sorry to hear that you’ve been feeling poorly. Glad that you’re on the mend. I’m trying to keep my sugars down because my blood lipids are higher than they should be. I know that sounds counterintuitive but that’s what my doctor and I discussed. I have cut the majority of added sugars out, only leaving in coffee creamer…

Thanks

Ok I’m a moron. How to I reply to a specific comment?

Please excuse any posts or replies that end up in the wrong place. I’m struggling with this format. I’m doing pretty good at keeping my calories under control. My goal is to keep my sugars down and I’ve got my added sugars down to about 15 g but when I keep adding fruit to get my fiber up, my sugars are going over my…

I liked Dr. Daniel Amen’s book which was about how diet effects your brain. I can’t remember the title right now. I’m on the treadmill. :-)

I’m in. Joined the group.
