I like that idea too. I am horrible and try to remember the night b4 then I forget and end up eating crappy food. I have also been slipping did really well until last week and now I need to get back on track. I had high hopes and wanted to lose 50 more lbs by February. I have a cut dress I want to wear for an event. Now I…

Sorry I don't always get to a computer during the weekend and last week ended up being crazy for me. I was doing good until last night. Had to drive and pick up a cow that we order for the year. Came home starving and snacked then snacked some more just for no reason besides that it was sitting there. So starting over…

day 8 - Work was really busy and I was either walking or standing for 6 hours straight yesterday. It helped because I wanted to have a snack but was to tired to get up off the coach lol. This week is going to be crazy. I might not be able to check in as often, but I will try. Good thing is that since I'm busy and not…

Sorry I left my ipad in a bag in the car this weekend and couldn't find it. So I made it through the weekend without snacking. Last night we had bday cake with supper so I didn't have to count it as a snack but I probably would have been better snacking. It put me way over. Not sure how this week is going to go. I really…

yesterday was crazy so I didn't get a chance to log in to a computer. Really wish the phone app let you post. So last night was day#4 @gxmiller - I too took the kids for icecream last night. I really wanted to get something, I was so proud for not giving in. I just keep focusing on making it 1 week.

Back from vacation, lost 2 lbs so I'm taking it as a victory. But I really made a lot of bad choices just tried to make up with it in activity. It helped it was so nice we hit the beach and did some swimming and tubing/ skiing regularly.

Well I may have fallen and fallen hard the second half of vacation, but I'm back to normal life and determined to make it. had a plus that when I stepped on the scale this morning I had lost 2 lbs while gone, so I must have made some good choices. It doesn't hurt that I have so much to lose that it doesn't take much. Bo…

I learn how much I MFP makes a difference the hard way. We don't have very good cell service at our lake cabin and a construction company cut some lines... no phone, internet or cable. It was nice in some ways but it also meant no MFP!!! and my over eating and snacking. So back to starting over after last night but I'm…

Well tomorrow night I will be starting over :grumble: And it wasn't even worth it!!! Complete stress, mindless snacking. We just had a huge storm pass through with hail and tornado warnings. grabbed some snacks for the kids and headed to the lower level garage. next thing I knew I was eating the snack food!!! not happy…

Bo you must have had faith in me... last night was day 16 done!!! I had planned in one brownie or S'more with my boys during fireworks. So we had brownies, and I kept it to one. It was tough, I love my sweets! instead I had 5 glass of water and lemonade. It helped that it was almost 90 degrees so I didn't really want to…

2 weeks!!! I am so happy to have reached this. I have to say last night without even thinking I took a bite of my sons rice cake and realized what I had done and spit it out. gross I know but my kids snacking is my weakness. I'm not even hungry but they are eating so I just do. Tonight is a busy night so that helps.…

It's hard for me to get exercise at the lake because my boys are 4 and 1, so walks are slow and short. But I am going to try and get some exercise each day. Even if its just running up and down the hill in our yard. But I did plan out the suppers and a few snacks. Trying to balance the indulgences with health choices. I…

night 13 complete - barely!!! My hubby said aren't you doing that 21 day challenge as I was just about to snack on some leftover flatbread pizza. I wasn't hungry at all. I was actually really full we had just went out to Ruby Tuesdays for dinner. So I put it back and grabbed a glass of limeade. I do plan to enjoy my…

Eagle Scouts are when you were a scout and you have to complete a bunch of stuff to become an eagle scout it reminds me of a graduation type of thing. I don't fully understand it because it was when he was a teenager. He isn't very active in much now, but hopes to when our son gets older (he is only 4 now) Bad weekend, and…

night 12 complete!!! But my ridiculously indulgence dinner and desert that I had for supper was enough calories a couple days. I need a support group for making it through family functions. I would say that I did have some control and had half of my plate with salad... only it was caprese salad so not the healthiest. but I…

@ fizzbuzz - I love the work you do with Cub scouts!!! My hubby is an eagle scout and can't wait for our boys to be old enough to get into cub scouts, but we have 2 years left. You will burn lots of calories with all of those kids!!! and just think you already hit you mini goal. Congrats!!! I finely feel that I have had a…

I weigh myself more then once a week just because I'm kinda obsessive, but I limit it to 2-3 times only in the morning when I get up. I also don't sweat the little fluctuations. I also only track once a week. I do Fridays as weekends are my weakness and then I have the rest of the week to get back on track if I have a bad…

@ anamonacc - You can do it! It is really hard when you wake up in the middle of the night. Your trying and that is more then a lot of people!!! I have been lucky and have slept really good for the last week. Day 8 done!!! But I really though it would get easier but It isn't :( I just keep telling myself I don't want to…

Day 7 done :) one week down. I did go get some Fro-yo with my boys tonight but I had planned it in my day yesterday. my hubby convicted them that would be better then a cake and no left overs hanging around. I was over by only 100 cal so not to bad for such a ruff start.
-
Off to a ruff start this morning. A coworker came with donuts for my birthday. Very thoughtful but really everyone knows I am working hard at dieting. Bring something that isn't going to start my day 480 cal plus my breakfast I had already eaten!!! My hubby is been super nice and bringing me a veggie delight from subway to…

Bo you can do it!!! I don't know how much inspiration I am because it was hard. And I don't know how I am going to make it on our vacation for the 4th of July for 10 days but with the help of this group I at least have some hope. I did yell at my hubby last night for snacking next to me while I was struggling so hard!!! He…

Day 5 - check!!! Hardest night yet!!! Went to the lake and everyone snacking. Food everywhere!!! Luckily we ate supper late and then when I was about to snack on something my hubby reminded me that I was doing this challenge. I kept on telling myself do you really want to start all over. I made it. But I foresee every…
