  • I broke and did a sneak attack on the scale, like no one would know but me!! LOL I will have to weigh myself at the end of this week but then I am moving the scale out of thee room!!
  • Encouraging dialog. It's been a slow process for me to even recognize and own the fact that more often than not, it's emotion that drives my eating patterns. I haven't figured out why I think I need to cycle from a 3 week success period to binging to reverting back to old/poor behavior but this feedback may help me push…
  • soooo ready to sneak a peak. 2 days in for this challenge and all I want to do is see how well I've done! I know I've done well because I am tracking and exercising for Pete's sake! It goes to show that movement on the scale can sabotage me-- those sabotage details may be written about later. What a great challenge!
  • Wow! I had to think twice about this but I'm in! This will be as hard as staying the course for me. I'm a daily weigher, some times I weigh myself in the morning and evening. If I stay the course, I have nothing to fear and everything to loose. :D
  • This is all very helpful. Honestly, comforting in some ways. I have been doing this for a long time. This last time committed to others, thinking it would help. I can identify with being bored, being anxious, etc. This past time that I lost a few more pounds and felt great about my hard work, I cut myself some slack and…
  • Welcome back. You are worth it! Look at those two loves that surround you. Lead by example. (These are all positive affirmations I am using to help me try to stay on the wagon ... again!) :smile:

(I personally would choose something with 5 stones, each…
  • Reading the posts gave me an ah ha moment realizing I'm not alone when falling off the wagon. I am becoming more aware of my addictive behaviors with food. I too "treat" myself with food when I have been good during the week! Crazy! I have gained and lost the same 10 pounds for about 30 years now and added extra weight…
  • I really, seriously do not like exercise but love how I feel after I am done. The "I did it!" feeling like I've won a presidency or something. Perhaps that feeling will wear off but for now, I am using the "I did it!" feeling to motivate me to get back in the saddle again. Checking the goals off my list!
  • Sign me up. I'd like to loose 40-45 # but can't seem to get past a weekly speed bump called the weekend. I want to change my lifestyle. It's time to make things happen. I'm with you, ready to do THIS!
