I like to weigh in Friday too. I want to be healthy and keep that in mind because tracking, writing what I eat and missing coming in to the site so I loose my streak makes me feel defeated. My husband will offer me junk food and will say one bite won't hurt and I always remind him. They add up! Hang in there!

Thank you for the feedback

OMG! Happens to me all the time. I don't eat on my day off. Lol I am cutting carbs. I did notice that some foods makes me feel like a brick in my stomach so trying to remember that when I crave it.

I'm doing small goals like cook three times this week. I heard of mindful eating but not sure how that works or if it will work for me.

Those are basically my hours. So I totally get it. I don't cook because I am exhausted and it's easier to grab something. People tell me, well meaning, wake up earlier and I'm like I already wake up before 5. I can't imagine 4am

Exactly! And I have been stressed so comfort food I tell myself it's ok but I forget the ten other time I said ok. I am always tired lately so even logging my food I'm like ugh. I put on a pair of pants that were SUPER snug and I was like you have got to be kidding! This is the heaviest I have been so it's a mind game too.…

Thank you. I will try that!

Good ideas. Migraines suck and sometimes they linger and get strong again. I have heard of boots for migraines and I've had block injections, it didn't help me much. I'm getting the aura back so I am left with take the med just in case and it knocks me out or wait and see and then take the med later and risk it not staying…

I'd be thrilled with loosing four pounds and a couple of inches. Doing the elliptical four times a week and strength training three times a week and diet soda once a week.

Did you politely tell him his parents should've abstained the night he was conceived????

Sounds interesting. How would you track?

Yes, I can. I can track while on vacation since I will have.phone with.me.

I'm planning on snacks for the drive. Already have those set up. Planning where to eat might be tricky since we usually like trying little restaurants along the way. You meet the most interesting people and I love that. I figure if I have my healthy snacks and not allow myself to get become famished cause when I do all…

Planning on doing some of that! The past six months have been Huber stressful so honestly I just want to relax and just be. Not eat everything in sight but if we stop and there is something good I want to try it.

Thank you all. I like the fitness goal I never thought about that. I like the idea of measuring. Thank you, I feel less of a goober now. :)

Fitness goal like jogging 3 miles or something like that?

I did take a picture and will take another one in a couple of weeks. It's funny I love data and logging my food but the scale just stresses me and when it doesn't move or fluctuate I feel like it's in vain. Yesterday I weighed myself in the morning and at night. Three pound difference!

Are you tracking the miles here? I am at 1500 and I walk but it asks me for length of time not miles. :)

I think I am going to watch Criminal Minds and go to sleep. Thank you for the support! Tomorrow is a new day. Didn't go out for comfort food.

Mental health is important I think and Pokey, I agree it will be temporary and it would send me back but I haven't been at this long enough to figure where to transfer the comfort I get. I don't have pets or kids and hubby is a police officer who due to short man power is working his third double this week. :( part me of…

Thank you I am just exhausted and overwhelmed right now. I don't know how to make it ok right now. Does that make sense?

Makes sense! Thank you :)

Chief, so what's the ratio between them? How long do they differ in agreement? I weighed myself this morning and I lost .5 lbs which then I'll be told no big deal it's water.

Starting weight: 177 CHRISTMAS goal: 157 10/3; 175! 18 more to go!

Amen to that! They don't. My sister was like why would you do that and I said because I need to see and be able to see the difference when it happens. I feel the same way sometimes I will look at pics of myself when I was at my healthiest and I think that was hard work and I look normal. lol

Thank you!!!! I thought I was the only one! :wink:

I get excited when I see the results, when I start it's hard and I hate it!

I think in a weird way people like the way things are and any change they resist. Especially if you are trying to do something good for yourself. Maybe it's that misery loves company thing.

Thank you all for your encouragement I feel empowered to try keep going. I know I will get there. Just dropped my basket for a bit!

Very true I ate them out of the house which made it worse. I am giving myself time to feel and moving on. I like the idea of a plan. It's funny I am so much harder on myself than others. If it was a friend I would remind them it's a marathon not a Sprint. You didn't wait six months it was a week and what a great…
