Depends on which side of the family we are going to. One side has traditionally always done soups (chili, oyster, chicken noodle) and sandwiches (chicken salad, ham). the other side is usually ham, occ'l turkey. If I could do it MY way, at my house and feel good about it, it would be so much different! only 2 others,…

LOVE IT!! That's right...how many of you have imagined what your plate will look like this year? What do you see on it? I see smiles on so many of your faces!! **You** are in control and the holiday is not about eating...it is a gathering of thanks. I am pretty sure our bodies are *thanking* us here lately, don't you all…

I had a hysterectomy in July (uterus only removed) but I still have a *cycle*. I usually have a gain anywhere from 1-5 lbs a few days up to a week in advance. I think this is very normal and it is just fluid retention. I seem to lose it within a day or 2 of starting. Just keep doing what you are doing and it will come off.…

yes, totally agree. I notice when I eat very closely to my correct caloric value, and not way under, I'm talking within 50 or less cals or even 50 cals over, my chances of losing weight are better. Exercise helps, but I think exercise is what transforms our bodies and makes them firmer, more toned, and therefore smaller.…

awww...I sure know the feeling! I'm hoping my oldest will be here this coming weekend. No matter how many times they come home or how long they stay..they seem to always return too quickly!! Enjoy your warm fuzzies :smooched:

So I've had a hard time finding my way back...and since my official weigh in day is Friday, I am posting last weeks weight. 197. Yup, that is only .8 down from the start. I'm claiming it. I know WHY it happened. I'm accountable. Right now I am in a positive state of mind...and even tho I don't know why it happens, I know…
-
I was thinking this as well! Looks like we will have 3-4 challenges this week :bigsmile:
-
I was kinda thinking the same thing. Thanksgiving is 2 weeks away from tomorrow...can you believe it! Mindful eating is a very important habit to *overhaul* on this journey. What happens most of the time tho for me is....AM I HUNGRY? Is it physical? Am I wanting something crunchy, salty, sweet, smooth, chocolate, etc. We…

hey, some people celebrate their ENTIRE birthday *month* :bigsmile:
-
I have had many, many fat MONTH'S....and then WEEK's. My goal is to find balance...not giving up!
-
Yes, I do believe we have a couple...not sure they are posting regular...but they are sure welcome here!

hello all! well, day 2 of doing well. gosh, eating better makes a huge difference...in everything! I managed to get a quick walk in before supper. within a couple of minutes of stepping out the door, it started to rain. I just kept plugging away. Had enough layers on to keep me dry. Here's to a great day tomorrow! Plan and…

all of my family get the flu shot. my dh works in a factory with many people. I am a school bus driver exposed to everything. our 2 children are in college, again exposed to everything. none of us have ever had the flu.
-
good evening everyone! well, today was very good in the food area. felt like I was the "me" I want to be. worked outside for over 4 hours raking, push mowed, cutting, pulling, lifting dead plants. a little behind on water. I think I am ready to start doing my resistance workouts. I always have fairly quick results and I'm…

just a quick hi, will catch up more later. I've had a much better day! :smile:

Happy Sunday everyone! Just wanted to check in and say hi. I am still in this slump. Yesterday I had a good morning and early afternoon..then it was down hill from there. I had a really good nites sleep last nite, so I do feel better with that. It is partly sunny here, so a walk outdoors would benefit me well. Hope you're…

I use Whey with Almond milk....and haven't noticed that...but, everyone's body is different.

here's the update. let me know if I need to change anything! keep up the great work everyone! less than 7 weeks to go before we reveal a healthier person!!
-
you did awesome! give yourself a pat on the back!
-
good for you!! that's a victory! :bigsmile:
-
you said you haven't had them in at least a month if not more...why? is this a forbidden food now? I say have a 1/2 serving and that's it. It's ok to eat these foods in moderation. Sometimes if we deprive ourselves of our favorite foods, it leads to a binge...and then we feel worse. Make sure you log it. There's no reason…

I will post the chart on Friday. still updating, adding newbies.

Evening all! Thanks for posting or messaging me your weight info. I will be posting the chart Friday. Again, if you see any errors, let me know asap...I'd appreciate it!

I had quite a few personal messages from people and responded back, just doing anything I can to help :wink:

we all want to lose this weight, but doing so healthy is important. The more weight you have to lose, the more weight you will lose initially. I typically lose anywhere from 4-9 in the first week, and it is mostly water. then it tapers off to a pound or two..IF I continue to do well. YES, keeping track of what you eat can…
