Please add me to the RED HOTS! Thank you!

I had always heard not to weigh daily but have found that if I don't, I quickly get off track in other things and my weight goes up. Thank you for the reminder!

I have been better this year being mindful. The more protein I put in my meals, the less hungry I get and want to eat. If I get bored, I usually play a game, do a puzzle, or write. I have been trying to be better at mindless eating.

I am loving all this research information. Can't get enough of health info! I want to go to water aerobics 2x a week. It was a goal for me after retirement and I haven't made it there yet. I think that would be fun and beneficial.

While I mentioned in the #2 answer, I had cut out gluten and lowered my sugar, I am also increasing my protein. My doc says I need a gram for every pound of my ideal weight. So I want to ensure I get enough protein. I really do feel better when I eat more protein. :smile:

Goals - End the year with 3x/week working out and 10K steps a day to lose my last 5-10 pounds while keeping gluten and sugar out of my diet. Exercise - Gym 3x week w/weights and 10K steps a day. Nutrition - Cut back on eating out and sugar.
