Your posting is soooo familiar...Tired of starting over. Personally, part of my program is to list anything that touches my lips. Posting my food intake early in the a.m. gives me direction for the day...I must send to my sponsor and that also keeps me grounded to the commitment of the day. I noticed your conerns about…

IF SODA IS YOUR WORST, THAT'S WHERE TO START.....ALLOW ONE SERVING PER DAY, IF YOU HAVE MET ALL YOUR OTHER GOALS... TRY TO LOG IN YOUR DAILY MENU FIRST THING IN THE A.M....OR NIGHT BEFORE....STAY FOCUSSED ON THE DAILY PRIZE...."MEETING GOAL".

SISTER PHILAMENA...WOULD HAVE DIED LAUGHING WITH THIS ONE.!!!!:laugh:

:flowerforyou: SIGHT IMPAIRED... ACCOUNTABILITY.....ALWAYS LOG IN THE A.M., REPORT TO SPONSOR, ADJUST AT NIGHT + OR - AMOUNT...(VERY LITTLE ADJUSTMENT)..... PLANNING, LOGGING, REPORTING...MAKES ME TOTALLY ACCOUNTABLE AND HAS ADDED TO THE SUCCESS OF MY JOURNEY, WHICH I ADMIT HAS NOT BEEN EASY BUT HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL FOR THE…

$3.65:noway: CENTRAL FLORIDA

SIGHT IMPAIRED... PROVEN FACT...WALKING BY FAR IS THE BEST EXERCISE FOR THE ENTIRE BODY....IT'S A HAPPENING!:flowerforyou: KEY WORDS WERE THE "ENTIRE BODY".

SIGHT IMPAIRED... YIKES, YOUR BEST FRIEND IS NOT ON YOUR BAND WAGON FOR THIS JOURNEY. SHE HAS HER OWN JOURNEY AND UNFORTUNATELY IS NOT OPEN TO MAKE ANY CHANGES AT THIS TIME....BE PATIENT AND CONTINUE TO TRAVEL DOWN YOUR PATH. ALL WILL BE WELL WITH TIME. ODAT:flowerforyou:

I'M CERTAINLY THERE RIGHT WITH YOU....AS I AM DOING HIGH PROTEIN, LOW CARBING. (ONLY USING THE GOOD CARBS, I.E. BROCCOLI, CAULIFLOWER, GREEN BEANS, AND ETC......) NO FLOUR/NO SUGAR ...AFTER 65 YEARS, I HAVE FINALLY REALIZED THAT BOTH OF THOSE SET ME OFF ON COMPULSIVE EATING........UGH... SO COUNT ME IN....:flowerforyou:

(SIGHT IMPAIRED) YOU ARE IN THE ABSOLUTE FRAME OF MIND....YOUR JOURNEY IS NOT A QUICK FIX BUT A CHANGE IN LIFESTYLE, WHICH INCLUDES MAKING PERSONAL CHANGES...I SEE NOTHING OTHER THAN SUCCESS FOR YOU. :flowerforyou:

:flowerforyou: WALK, WALK, WALK, MEDITATE...AND WALK SOME MORE... PROVEN FACT THAT WALKING (NOT RUNNING) IS THE BEST EXERCISE. (VISUALLY IMPAIRED)

CONSISTENCY + COMMITMENT = RESULTS:flowerforyou:

TOTALLY AGREE....THE FIRST IS ELEGANT, WHICH IS RIGHT FOR THE OPERA.

NO I DO NOT!!!! IT IS A CHOICE THANG!!!! WEIGHT LOSS HAS BEEN CONSISTENT...THEREFORE, I'M NOT CHANGING IT. CONSISTENCY + COMMITMENT = RESULTS:flowerforyou:

ABSOLUTE PLAN AHEAD...ONE DAY AT A TIME IS ALWAYS BEST. I DO HAVE 7 DAY PLAN...BUT IT IS ALWAYS ADJUSTED DUE TO SCHEDULES AND ETC...SO, WHATEVER I PLANNED FOR TUESDAY MAY NOT ACTUALLY HAPPEN UNTIL THURSDAY.... THE KEY::::: AS WE USUALLY KNOW WHAT OUR SCHEDULE WILL BE THE NEXT DAY, EITHER THE NIGHT BEFORE OR EARLY A.M. LOG…

AWESOME PICS...GOOD IDEA TO USE THE SAME TOP... FINALLY, CONGRATZ!!!!! CONSISTENCY + COMMITMENT = RESULTS! ODAT:flowerforyou:

LOG AHEAD! GET A DESSERT SIZE DISH! We all want to be healthy, fit, handsome/gorgeous but we struggle daily on whether we want to do the WORK....It's called ABSTINENCE. ODAT

MADAME TINY HERE! AGE::::65 HEIGHT::: 4' 7" SW:::183 PW:::150 GW:::106 ONE POUND ON US LOOKS LIKE TEN....SO EACH POUND OFF IS A BLESSING!!!!:flowerforyou:

Nice question:::::::Which deserves an answer. As I am a food addict/emotinal eater, I have struggled for so many years while destroying my health.... Now, I am in recovery, one day at a time, at peace with myself and life as it happens....since 3/22/11....That's when I joined Overeater Anonymous. :flowerforyou:

Here I am....Same issues... If you are serious about your JOURNEY and wish to post your FOOD DIARY/WATER/EXERCISE...COUNT ME IN!

I SEE MYSELF WHEN READING THE ABOVE.... Am I a Compulsive Overeater? Only you can decide that question. Remember, there is no shame in admitting you have a problem; the most important thing is to do something about it. This series of questions may help you determine if you are a compulsive overeater. Do you eat when you're…

I am a compulsive eater and food addict....anything with flour / sugar (especially bread) will set me off to compulsive overeating. I have had to find my trigger foods and trigger behavior and just drop them from my life....in order to be free of compulsive eating. In research, I have found that using a small round pita…

I AM ON 1200 CALS...AND I CHOOSE NOT TO EAT BACK MY EXERCISE.

CAN'T SEE YOUR DIARY...SO REALLY CAN'T HELP:flowerforyou:

Love the reading...and OH SO TRUE.:flowerforyou:

LOTS OF NEWBIES....IT IS A GREAT PLACE.... IF YOU ARE TRULY COMMITTED TO MAKING A LIFESTYLE CHANGE AND WISH TO POST YOUR FOOD DIARY ....YOU CERTAINLY CAN ADD ME...:flowerforyou:

Absolutely plan....log everything in the a.m. and follow it. I also email my log every morning to my sponsor....KEEPS ME ACCOUNTABLE. I, too, have a mate who is not dieting and his preferences are taken into consideration during the planning and I just tweek the sides for myself. He has his SPECIAL TREATS and I just don't…

One thing that I have learned on this JOURNEY....is that it is 3-sided...PHYSICAL = EMOTIONAL = SPIRITUAL. Always tried to do only 2 of the 3 for years and never succeeded...Now, I have incorporated all three and POOF weight is dropping for the first time in 15 years... THAT'S A MAJOR WAHOO in my book.

FIRST WEEK - First challenge should be about us logging in everything that touches our lips. Record movement. Water intake ADD AT LEAST 3 FRIENDS ... We should all be on the same page...

Property management/and enjoying the life of a snowbird~~~~:flowerforyou:

Doing two (2)...food/smoking....great courage, but it can be done. If you need help and are serious on doing food diary/exercise/water...you can add me as a friend. :flowerforyou:
