Ha.. I think I discovered how to drink more water... make spicy food!! I made chicken enchilidas... a new recipe.. and they were so spicy! Hubby loved them... but I think I drank like 4 large glasses of water. Maybe I have a new strategy to get me to drink more water.. and eat less LOL!! But.. it was a better day…

My eating last week was not good. It makes me realize how bad I have gotten out of control.. with mindless eating and grazing. Why is it so hard. So today, even though its only 12 degrees out, I went to the gym. that always starts my day off good, and makes me not want to ruin it by eating junk. Breakfast was eggs mixed…

I can't say that I doing very well this week. I think I just miss getting out to gym and walking.. I need more sunshine!! But, things are looking better for the rest of the week! JFT, Sat 1. log all food. I've been not doing this because I don't even remember what I am eating.. too much grazing and nibbling on stuff! 2.…

Big hugs Bex. I know the pain of watching someone suffer, and not be able to help. But you were there with her.. and thats what counts. Praying that she recovers. And yes, under these circumstances.. do what you can just to take care of yourself. <3 <3 <3

Have gotten off track the past 3 days... snowed in with 9+ inches of snow! The only good thing is the shoveling.. but my weight "had" been steady going down. Discouraging to see it back up 2 pounds. but... I am telling myself this is life, and I'll get back at it better today. Todays goals, 1/8 1. weight myself. I am…

Its monday nite.. and didn't get my goals posted yesterday. Yesterday was a off day for me foodwise.. not intentionally though! It snowed and sleeted.. so we are stuck inside. So I made some oatmeal cookies (hubby likes to have 1 each day for lunch. . he says they keep him full). But then I had some M&Ms from xmas left..…

WTG Bex!!! Prou8d of you!! That is the attitude that I am trying to take this year. I went to the grocery store last nite (we are expecting 10+ inches of snow tonite into tomorrow). I bought a box of ice cream.. what was I thinking!! Last nite, I almost went and took "just one bowl"... ya.. like I would only eat a single…

@pridesabtch-- your pictures are beautiful. you are beautiful! But boy, can I relate to the body image we get as young adults.. and how it carries with us our entire lives. I was always teased by my 4 brothers as being fat.. they used to call me the "blimp". So I never felt that I looked good.. even though I was when I…

Went to see how I did...and realized I never set my goals for today. But... I did OK. Its only 6:30... so I have to rest of the evening to go and not eat, but I am going to go get my glass of water, and keep it with me. I got to the gym today.. stayed 90 minutes, but had a really good workout. That always gets my day…

Yesterday went better for me.. except for the water. Hubby has gotten so good with drinking water.. he carries a cup with him all the time. I really do need to work on this. Not only for hydration, but everything I've read is that water helps with weight loss. So that is really my focus this year also. But... foodwise, I…
