  • Laurel, do you think just reading out loud would be the same effect? I think the writing would really help me, I have been doing alot of emotional eating lately.

  • Feel free to add me too!
  • I had my cheat day and went a little over the 2k goal for that day 2018 cals..., I was frustrated with myself in that I was so tired Sat I really should have made that a rest day, but didn't, I did the yard and moved some things for my mom. So Sunday, I ATE! While I'm glad I didn't do worse, I'm not exactly thrilled I…
  • I like that alot of your rewards are inexpensive, I had rewards before, but when money gets tight I drop them, so I'm going to be inspired by you, and I think mine will go something like this: (Hubby or family being up to watch kids assumed ;) 25 lbs - a healthy meal where, I choose whatever I want to eat and hubby serves…
  • YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME! I love the idea of mixing both intense and then other days I get to pick from the jar...I'm so silly I literally just giggled over the prospect. Thanks guys!
  • Great goal Torra! You can so do this!!! My goal for today is to do my 30 day shred workout (done) and do my second mini workout this afternoon, and stay under cals, also up my water, trying for 10 glasses today, was way too thirsty last night! You guys are so encouraging and uplifting, glad I found this group!
  • Great topic!! for me, depends on where I am, I work from home so can do yogurt and cereal, hard boiled egg, light popcorn . I'm trying to have a balanced snack, some protein and some carb..so my new options are pb and celery, pb and whole wheat crackers, yogurt and cereal still fit, need to add some cheese to…
  • I love the positive attitudes of all you guys! I have lost 160 lbs, gained 40 back, and am now down another 20 ..my doc has set me with a goal of at least 20 mis a day, preferably 30 mis of excercise as well as a healthy diet. My goal today is to workout for 30 mis (20 mis is done, will do 10 later) and be under my cal…
  • I find I go in phases on this, I will not be hungry in between meals for a few weeks then feel like I'm starving...so, for me protein really helps . So, an egg, or a milk based snack shake, turkey jerky. Peanut butter and banana, or peanut butter on a few crackers. I also like yogurt mixed with whole grain cheerios or…

  • me too, an for starting this group!
  • Wow, great question! And one I struggle to answer, but have settled on God, working through me makes me beautiful, His spirit. Choosing Him makes me beautiful. Wow, I love this topic!
  • I did a study called "Made to Crave" and it covers that topic so well. I was so stressed yesterday I actually prayed and apologized for taking comfort in food, and not taking the time out to lay my worries at His feet, it is so good you are aware of that!
  • I keep one size up and down..i love the idea of no fall back plan, but in reality it didn't work for me. This way I don't wake up and not have clothes, it gives me a wake up call and I have time to go back to the size I just left...this approach works for better for me and certain times of the month don't make run to the…

  • me too..lets do it! Anyone feel free to add me, i love to encourage daily and be encouraged!
  • My take...I think it depends on your goals. My goal is at least 20 mis of excercise 6 days a week. So, the day after I kill myself doing something, the next day I'll do a stretching session (you can look up online stretch yoga poses for soreness), or a walk. I couldn'd consistently do the power wahtever type excercises...I…

  • I'm happy to share my personal experience. I lost for a while, then had to stop to keep losing, also, I was miserable b/c I couldn't stand the low cal foods I had to eat in order to make room for alcohol on a regular basis, and am happier now eating more healthy, "normal" fat foods and indulging maybe once a month or so…

  • First.>BIG HUGS...second, it has helped me to realize that for me, my weight has to do with how I'm managing stess/emotions. You may need to see someone to learn some new ways to think that will support your "new attitude" and approach, excercise to help you rid of negative emotional energy and stay positive (excercise…
  • Awesome and Awesome run!! I felt like giving up after my run this am...taking me a long time to get past 2 miles and I'm about a 10 mis mile..but seeig your results is inspiring!
  • In the begining (i was on WW previously) I totally avoided, lost my 160 lbs, gained 60 back and am taking a more realistic approach where I will allow myself a tablespoon or half a serving. BUT I buy small bags/quantities, if at all, we don't keep them in the house, will go out, or buy a small one, and will not do it if…
