Hey
Well, it's been 6 days since I quit smoking. The days were very difficult and it was hard to control what I put into my mouth. I decided not to even take accountability. Now, I am ready to be accoutable. I cannot guarantee myself that I will only eat my weight loss calories but I am going to make a point in not eating over…

I quit!!
Last night I had my last cigarette.:drinker: I do not smoke anymore. :drinker: I'm hoping that if I have a positive mindset that it will be eaiser to quit. As long as I don't forget that I don't smoke, I'm okay. A few times, I forgot that I no longer smoke and my mind said, "go smoke". Then I have to fight myself a little…

A little off track
Hi all. :smile: Since I have stopped smoking, I have gotten a little off track. I gained several pounds within the first 24 hours that I quit. I've gained 5 in total. I have got off my hiney and moved more than I normally do plus I have even worked out. I still have the 5 pound weight gain. I may be in PMS mode right now…

Day 2
Alright. I wanted to give a brief update. Today I am about 36 hours into NO smoking!! :wink: Yesterday I did really well and was able to pretty much push any urges aside until really late. My eating was not as good as it has been, I ate much more frequently yesterday, when I was not even feeling hungry or weak, just to put…

Wow!!
I didn't realize this before because there are only like 5 categories in my food diary, but I eat like 7 or 8 times a day!! Sometimes I double or triple up on my snacks sections. I usually space my snacks out so that I can always have food to eat.:laugh: So I have been telling myself that I am eating 5 time a day (which is…

What have you learned this week?
I thought that it might be helpful and keep us inspired if we were to write out a few things that we learned from our new lifestyle change.

Only 50 calories a slice!!
I am so happy. I was at the grocery store today with my son. While I was looking at all the "healthy" breads to see how many calories there were, he walked up with a loaf of Natures Own 100% Whole Wheat Bread. Only 50 calories a slice. :love: I can have toast in the morning!! I wanted to let everyone know just in case you…

Hungry
I have been really hungry since last night. I'm down another pound today and I actually went 500 calories over yesterday because I was SO hungry. My calories are up to almost 1500 day compared to when they were 1200 and I am actually hungrier than I was then, not sick and dizzy, but hungry. Maybe that means my metabolism…

I'm so happy!!
I do not eat what alot of people eat and I usually only cook American food for my children. I cook Vietnamese or Thai food for me and my hubby and if my kids will eat it, they can. I love it and it is all that my hubby will eat but for a week I have been living off of canned food, boxed food, frozen food, etc. I went to…

Coffee and Creamer
Hi. I am currently using the Coffee Mate Fat Free French Vanilla Creamer. There are 25 calories per TBSP. I love my flavored creamer but I am finding that it is taking up way to many calories. I would like at least 2 cups in the morning and one cup in the afternoon. That would be fine is I only used the 1 TBSP serving…

Hi
Hi, I just joined yesterday. I've actually spent most of my day today trying to figure out how to be more healthy. I've been searching online, planning meals, trying to refocus. I've gained 10 pounds since December. I'm very upset about it. I'm even more upset about all of the inches that I have gained since this summer.…
