  • I was really consistent then TOM hit me like a truck. And I did something to my foot and now I'm hobbling around. Can't even walk for exercise. Eating lots of produce, favorite thing about summer!
  • Marla, a night at the Crab game sounds super fun! Ugh sorry some people don't know how to act right... It's BEAUTIFUL weather here (for a change, usually it's a zillion degrees and muggy) and I keep going for walks. Don't try and stop me!
  • Thank you for the suggestions, I'm really trying to stay focused and eat produce. That should be my motto! Busy day but managed an afternoon mile walk with a coworker. Love the idea of a tech vacation, Marla!
  • Monday report: 4/4 1)Eat produce with every meal and snack 2) Actually log all food 3) Send food log to trainer daily 4) Move booty at least every other day Last night was husband’s turn to cook and roast chicken was on the menu. When I came home at 6:30, the oven was off and I was bummed because that’s the situation when…
  • It's June 6. And I weigh the same as I did on Jan 1. I know exactly why—not being consistent with healthy eating. Too many excuses and not enough commitment. Plus I'm GREAT at giving self permission to eat something “bad” (entire pizza, order restaurant dessert) because I've been “good” (worked out with trainer, had…
  • Thanks, Valma, making plans for weekend booty moving is a good idea. Have a short week this week at work. Lovely following a long weekend. Kind of going back and forth on healthy choices. Actually seriously considered just giving up today but I've got a lot to want to live long for. Sometimes my depression shows up and…
  • HELLO! The weather's been hot/muggy so after a super-short spring (I think it was 3 days), now we're into summer. My energy's been low and it's so cyclical--the less I do, the less I want to do, and then it's VERY hard to motivate. Weekend plans fell through and my tot had tummy troubles so our water/swimming plans were…
  • Woke up feeling super terrific and my cough is so much better. Going for walk, first booty moving in ages. Kind of mish mashy food today but ok.
  • Hello all! I just got my booty kicked by a sinus infection/cold/horrible cough. Spent the last week down for the count. Woke up today and felt like human person again. Cough is lingering but about 80% better. Made healthy meals last night so I'm set for today. Catching up on the threads, hope all are doing okay.
  • Too lazy to post a Wed thread starter... Home sick with a sinus infection. Really feeling blah.
  • ...or for the rest of the month of May. 1. Eat produce with every meal and snack 2. Actually log all food 3. Send food diary to trainer daily * Bonus points for pre-logging I'll check back in next Monday.

  • Great weekend with family visit, did healthy eating about half the time, which was the best I could do. Also family ate like birds and I had to help kiddo eat so I stopped eating a few times before I was full and then had junk food later. Have had sore throat and I don't know what it's from but it's not fun. Drinking tea…
  • So tomorrow is my 11th session with my trainer (new one, old one moved across country) and since late Feb my weight has stayed pretty much the same. I feel like a #$%-up. Like, what did I pay so much money for if I'm going to continue with the same bad behavior? Ugh. I do see progress and some improvements, just don't…
  • Just wanted to check in. I feel kind of lousy and have been emotionally eating. Although, frankly, we're talking about three cookies and two chocolate bars, which is nothing since I have been known to binge and out of control way. This is not that. But it doesn't feel good.
  • Therapy and training and Maui, oh my! I've been on even. Trying to exercise because for me, fork is 80% of weight loss. Did lunchtime workout today and felt good. Got 11 hours of sleep last night, must've needed it. Felt groggy in am then good. Just trying to take it bird by bird...
  • Lazy weekend. Not so much healthy eating. Back on track today.
  • Yesterday I pretty much lazed around the house all day. I had a sore throat and woke up feeling lousy. Feel better today. Was hungry after dinner last night so had cheese and crackers and chocolate bar. Was still hungry after but went to bed. Next time I’ll make a protein shake (365 whey powder with almond milk and wee…
  • Good: weighed in light Bad: sore throat Ugly: too tired/lazy to create Sat post
  • Marla, you're doing the best you can, and that's all you can do. Yup, it sucks sometimes. <hug> Trainer kicked major booty today and I passed out 3 hours later. Hit TJ's for grocs (and Mother's Day cards) and got some salmon fillets to grill for tomorrow. I'm not a big fish fan but so good for you and am getting sick of…
  • Long day. Still feeling good. Working out with trainer tomorrow. My buns don't feel nothing like steel. Proud of self for not binging on sweets today. Had three opportunities. Sugar bombs zero, April 3.
  • Valma, how funny, we both posted threadstarters today--one minute apart! Brilliant minds, etc.
  • Howdy! Been on a great streak with the healthy eating. And today I had something happen that rarely does—at work there was a big plate of sweets, and instead of having to tell myself no, I just didn’t want it. Just like that. Easy! My exercise class was cancelled so I’m going to try and hit the gym at lunch since I already…
  • I worked out with my trainer on Friday and told him yet again that I struggle with healthy eating, particularly in the evening. He asked, why don’t you text me? I was dumbstruck. It hadn’t occurred to me. So we made a plan for Saturday—I went to two kid birthdays with pizza and cake—and I skipped the junk food at both.…
  • hello! hope all are ok or at least on the mend. it's allergy season and i'm feeling it. cancelled outdoor exercise today. have been really consciously eating most of the time and it is really different, paying attention to hunger and body rather than my usual. i have also been very hungry lately (partly due to tom). have…
  • Tired--just wanted to say hello and hugs and goodnight!
  • Had a rough couple of days... and it all showed up on the scale. A stumble may prevent a fall. Worked out with trainer this am and was GREAT! I wanted to cancel and am very happy that I didn't. I often feel discouraged but am trying to get past it. Ate over cals and starting today I have to send my trainer a screenshot of…
  • Val, I laughed when I saw MFP corrected your curse word to *kitten.* Hope you are feeling better, it sucks when hubs hit below the belt. Marla, those pollen levels sound painful! Allergies and coughing are not spring fun :( Had super busy day at work and left so late I missed family dinner and ate pineapple chunks and a…
  • Val, hope your day date was awesome! We love those too. Laura, sorry to hear you're under the weather. Fingers crossed on the Rx! Marla, I was so jealous at my desk in my cube in my hermetically sealed office building reading about your hike in the forest! I feel like I've been clicking lately. Partly from my planning and…
  • Didn't sleep well this morning so skipped am workout. Went out for an afternoon walk and it rained :neutral: Been doing a good job of logging and sometimes am pleasantly surprised. Also I tend to eat the same things over and over. Feeling kind of blah, I'm not sure why...
