Had 2 mikes hard pomegranate punches and it was 440 cals total. Was super shocked. :grumble:

I got up and mowed the lawn.... We have about an acre of land going up hill for about half of the property! Took me an hour and 15 minutes! May I suggest mowing the lawn this Sunday to burn off some of those calories? I know I got quite the work out and I was working to a goal which I have found is easier then mindless…

You look amazing!!! Great job! :flowerforyou: So rewarding to see the hard work pay off!

Thanks all. It was just a rough day for me looking back. I wanted the satisfaction from eating that I wasn't getting in other areas. I want to change WHY I eat so I was mainly looking for help with the mental aspect of this. I get plenty of healthy fat from my foods and I never eat too far under or over the recommended…

Tell him you are really struggling and you need his help. Ask him to put them in a place you dont know about. I know personally I can't have that stuff in the house because I am just not that strong. GOOD LUCK STAY STRONG!!! :flowerforyou:

I eat the recommended amount of fat a day so I don't know if I should add a bit more... I get my fat from peanut butter, salmon, and a bit of EVOO when I cook. I wonder if its mental over a need? :grumble:

This may be random but to you smoke? There is a great site webmd.com that I like to use to get a better idea if I am not sure of something. Of course this doesn't replace a doctors care... On Palpitations Treatment (from webmd.com) Self-Care at Home Since there are numerous types of palpitations, the treatment is usually…

I resisted!!!!! Thank you guys!!! I had my turkey sammy for lunch instead and you know what? It was pretty damn good! :heart:

What a great story. It makes it all seem so very possible to reach goal. As a child of a parent that smokes I want to say thank you!!!! I am sure that is one less thing your children will worry about. :heart:

Now Billy Mays the Oxyclean guy has died. What the hell is it with people in their 50s all of a sudden? Its just not something you expect. :sad:

I confess I had 2 hotdogs and some mac and cheese for dinner last night. :grumble: but was still under cals BECAUSE... I confess I didn't eat lunch yesterday. I confess I haven't had water in 3 days. :sad: I confess I haven't worked out in a week. :noway: I confess I am forcing the water down. :heart:

Welcome all! :flowerforyou:

Thank you all. Its so encouraging to feel like this... makes me really want to give it even more effort! :heart:

I was on it for 3 years... not only did I gain weight ( not sure how much of the 100lbs was due to lifestyle or depo) I was also miserable. I didn't smile for 3 years. It was so gradual I didn't notice the change in me until someone pointed it out. As soon as I got off of it the world seemed like such a beautiful place to…

:heart: Awesome thanks for all the help! :heart:

I eat a ham egg and english muffin thing with my coffee! Keeps me freeing great until about 1145 then I have a yogurt / milk snack. I :heart: protein

Nowhere near done but me at 290: Me 245:

Between breakfast and dinner I am meeting my protien goals... thanks for the help guys I will try to change some things up!

Thanks! I will try more veggies and a small amount of meat. Its just hard when I am cooking and not eating the same as everyone else. I only drink milk water or coffee so I make sure to add those in. I don't want to eat tons of cals at night so I think that may be a good solution. Heres trying. :drinker:

Awwwe! I know how the weather can play a big role in moods! I hope you feel better. :flowerforyou:

I do blood and sometimes plasma since watching what I eat... its been fine. Just make sure you eat a few hours before you go. So make sure you have breakfast if its a morning appointment lunch if its a noonish thing or dinner if you are doing it in the evening. Also they like to see you have a snack there before you leave…
