@RunsWithBees and @thelastnightingale , now that you mention it, I am about to start my period! Smdh, I totally forgot that was a thing 😅 I think I also ate later and ate a bunch of salty food yesterday... I try to only count my Sunday weigh ins, but it for sure made my eyes pop open a bit when I stepped on the scale this…

I had a nightmare last night I gained so much weight I got stuck in a pool slide and almost drown. Terrifying!!! But at least it kicked my butt back here after a rough week 😰 clearly my subconscious isn’t about to give up!!
-
@snowflake1968 - I just LOVE that evening! I’m trying to make it out to my local winter parade. @marsellilove - AOTD: SAME. I joke I’m a cheap date if you take me to Mexican food because I just want to eat the chips and salsa with a side of retried beans 😂😂😂 @Tilliesmommy1 - those photos are great haha. I understand that…

Good morning! The thread has been so busy since ive been away! Love it! That flat Xmas tree is hilarious! And amazing! When y’all were chatting about it I was imagining like a cardboard cut out, but to see it was crocheted (knitted?) is so much better! You could probably make a killing on Etsy 🙈 I stepped on my scale this…
-
Good morning all! It’s super chilly where I am atm. Mid 30s right now! I’m inspired by how much everyone gets out and walks! My goal is to be 205 by the seventh, I was 206 yesterday so I might walk around a bit to try and get the ol metabolism fired up. I enjoy walking with a girlfriend of mine just up the street so I…

Good morning! Today is my Monday 😴 I’ve found freezer meals to be cheaper where I shop rather than home cooking which is bananas! I love to cook, but the ease of microwave meals is such a draw. It’s not exactly “clean” eating though. My sodium levels have been at or over daily goals regularly enough 😅 if the scale doesn’t…

Does anyone else struggle on weekends? I need that good structure of work 🙈 AOTD: My favorite vegetarian recipe is masala lentils over jasmine rice 😍 Anything Thai or Indian I could eat and never have another piece of meat again in my life!!!! So yummy! @RunaMarti - big hugs about the holidays. I personally love them, but…
-
Good morning all! I gotta be accountable - I had some huevos rancheros at my sisters house after I had finished logging for the day. Tomorrow is a fresh day and I’m already feeling back on track! @Tilliesmommy1 - that is such a killer nsv! I hope that victory carries you through with a light heart today. Toffee and…

I feel like I’m almost over the hump with being hungry all the time, but the last two days have been really rough! 😖

@Tilliesmommy1 - Hawaii is February 10th 2019!! About 10 weeks out 🤩 my goal is to be around 190 when I go, at 205 right now so slow and steady is my goal this time around. It’s clearly already more sustainable. I’m so sorry about your sleep! Good sleep seems to be particularly elusive. I always feel like a real space…
-
What’s your power goal? I just love the sound of that! Congratulations on 3 days no sweets 🎉 Early bird is getting the low-cal worm this morning 😄 although to be honest I’m laying in bed willing myself to get up. It’s my Friday so I’m worn out!
-
@Snowflake1968 That memory is SO WONDERFUL. Thank you for sharing! I also don’t eat super clean tbh. I’m trying to be thoughtful about getting veggies in, but if I DONT want to eat something, it’s just going to derail my progress because after depriving myself for so long I’m going to go mad and dive for comfort food!
-
Yeah I had a small amount of ice cream today just to keep my spirits up. It’s been non-stop gloomy here which is really killing my heart 😖 sugar in moderation is ok I think. I’m longing for the sun in a way I never had before! It makes me double down on getting in shape in time for Hawaii haha.
-
I’m the same way - if I eat off plan I say heck to it and go crazy! Hence why I’m on the serial starters thread 😂 NSV: I’ve said NO to our peppermint marshmallows we make here for five days in a row! My first weigh in for a goal of -5lbs is on the 7th, and if I make it I’m going to have a reward of a marshmallow (they’re…
-
Good morning to the early birds 🦅! I have a QOTD if I may? Do you preplan your meals on MFP like a budget, or do you just log as you go?
-
I laughed at the Sirberia comment 😄
-
Today was so stressful I could rip my hair out! I really almost emotionally ate but I managed to swerve. Still fighting the demon though. @Tilliesmommy1 - thanks for the answer! Yeah it can be hard when I’m busy not to just grab a pastry. I recently got promoted so I’m not in the kitchen asssss much but it can still be a…
-
Is AOTD “advice of the day” or “action of the day?” 😂
-
@tillie - early birds unite! I’m a baker for a living (oh lawd help me!) so I rise with the dough hahaha. My favorite veggie snack is baby carrots with supreme spicy hummus. It really puts a nail in the salty creamy craving I get that I usually reach for cheese for. Glad to be the welcome wagon! I recently deleted my…
-
Welcome welcome!
-
Work it! Amazing!
-
Does anyone else dream about food oh lawd hahaha! I dreamt that I accidentally ate a handful of potato chips and some peppermint marshmallows my work sells. This too shall pass. AOTD: spread my meals out a little differently so I’m not hangry in the afternoon. Say NO to pizza my work is bringing in!
-
Two days down! I put it on my vision board and it’s manifesting? Usually I can’t go more than 36 hours.....or maybe it’s all y’all here? Who know?! I’m ecstatic!
-
Lana! Are you on vacation? I’m in the PNW right now and am dreaming of sun! I had a big lunch about two hours ago but I’m starting to get really hungry again! Not trying to eat until I get home but man it’s hard! No pain no gain though, Delaying gratification now will be better later!
-
Way to go! Very inspiring!! Can I add you?
-
Tillies! Thanks for the warm welcome! I’m focusing on practicing mindfulness to improve my health. Making choices (food specifically) in the moment rather than zoning out and hoping for the best in a week. I like your “AOTD”! My AOTD would be walking either half way, or the whole way home from work! A 40 minute slight…
-
I finished one day on track! Onto the second day!
-
Anyone struggle with hanger? I feel so bad at work the first week cause I want to yell at any mild inconvenience!
-
I went from 300 to 200 over 2 year span, and have just maintained at 200 for the last four years! I want to be down 20 by February because I’ll have hit my original original goal weight of 180 as well as going to Hawaii the way I should (as hot as the weather ;) ) I’m implenting the “one day, one hour, one minute at a…
