Negative self talk is a game the ego/brain plays with us to keep us in the "safety" of our current patterns (safety meaning what is familiar, a new pattern is unknown and the ego/brain is afraid of the unknown). When you believe the negative small talk, it works to keep you where you are. Play the game around back on your…

Final Goal Check-In: 1. Plan backups for bedtime/midday snack cravings and weekends and fit snacks into calorie targets - NOT (exactly) ACCOMPLISHED !!! I went over my calories BIG time yesterday... This was a hard goal to track, I think I need to set some more concrete points of accomplishments here. My goal next month…

I'm in! These mini/monthly challenges are really great. Started using MFP in March at 154 and have been on the yo-yo CW: 148.0 avg (current goal to keep below 150 for 3 consecutive weeks by Labor Day 9/4, so far accomplishing this) SW: I'll fill on 9/1 and adjust goal weight as needed GW: Holding 146.0 Average (or 2lbs…

Hope you're feeling better this week SuzOh!

Weekly Goal Check-In: 1. Plan backups for bedtime/midday snack cravings and weekends and fit snacks/treats into calorie targets - NOT ACCOMPLISHED :( This is a tough one for me... I might have to think of a different way to set goals around this that are more concrete. I had 4 (FOUR!!!) occasions this past week where I…

It's the best way I can tell I'm actually losing is when my boobs start to feel like deflating sacks... so sad

I don't know if this is new but I just saw it for the first time last week... Dairy free, super low calorie... doesn't exactly hit the ice cream treat spot but who can complain at 180 cals PER WHOLE PINT!? I thought it was good enough for the tiny calorie damage

Weekly Goal Check-In: 1. Plan backups for bedtime/midday snack cravings and weekends and fit snacks into calorie targets - ACCOMPLISHED !!! My first time accomplishing this goal for the mini challenge period! I did have some extra snacks and nighttime treats but I'm proud to say they all fit within my calorie targets, even…

Make it fun! Try a new class, I’ve been getting some good deals on Groupon lately to try new fitness classes and it’s been a blast and cheap too!

My week is going great!! Achieving my snacking control goal so far and just tried a PiYo class. I'm super sore and it was really fun!

Just ordered the cutest shirt and the arms are tight... I'm not returning it!! Also, I've yo-yo'd up and down between 160-135 for ten years and it takes a lot of work to get it down every time. I don't want to do it again anymore

Weekly Goal Check-In: 1. Plan backups for bedtime/midday snack cravings and weekends and fit snacks into calorie targets - NOT ACCOMPLISHED :( I went to a ladies cabin weekend and lost track of all my calories for 2 full days... I will say I kind of needed the break from counting everything and it was mostly good food but…

Weekly Goal Check-In: 1. Plan backups for bedtime/midday snack cravings and weekends and fit snacks into calorie targets - NOT ACCOMPLISHED :( I had a giant snickers bar and some chips on a mini road trip with my sister last Friday, those gas station stops are hard to resist - I even had a bag of beautiful cherries in the…

Hello! I'd like to join as well!! I had a really great week of logging, staying within calorie ranges, and getting out for exercise above my goals, but the scale didn't budge, it even went up a bit. Honestly while that's a bummer the positive feeling of accomplishment for being within my ranges and meeting my goals was…

I really love to use a meal planning app, some cost money and you might be able to find some for free... apps like MFP are great for tracking but I love having an app that randomized and gives me a lineup of recipes (breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snack) that's been developed for variety and my personal eating goals. And it…
