Positive thoughts as everyone weighs in. I made it to the goal for the month. It was by the skin of my teeth but I made it.

So close to the goal- gave up sweets and have some chocolate in the door of the fridge. We are staring each other down every time I open the door. That’s right! I am winning! One might think “just throw them away” But that is a crime against the cocoa beans that gave their life! So the battle continues and I will prevail bwahahahaha!! (The struggle is real!😂)

I think Day Light Savings time change is hard on a diet. I am so tired thst I want to snack to keep awake. Anyone else?

Except for the fact that my husband uses the same scale, I would wonder if it is broken. I have gotten the same weight to the ounce at the last three weigh ins.

Hope everyone is doing well. Keep going, even when your scale is stupid!

1/2 a pound from goal 2? Fingers crossed my Dad's surgery on Thursday doesn't spiral the emotional eating too much this week. Trying to stay busy and prep meals ahead!

Hi, all! The last week has been a struggle. I’ve got my exercise routine down pat, but I’m having a really hard time avoiding snacking and overeating during some of my meals (mainly at home).

I’m focusing on doing all the things I know I should be doing… eating enough protein, drinking water all day, filling up on veggies, healthy carbs from veg, food prepping for breakfast and lunches, and I eat an apple when I am “starving”. I realize so much of the issue is mental and just bad habits. If I lived alone I wouldn’t have cheese-itz or chocolate chips or other tempting carbohydrates and sugar on the premises! It’s hard to resist cravings after a long day of working, parenting, house cleaning, stressing, adulting. Just being real!

How’s everyone else doing?

Hey every body! It’s my big 70 birthday
today!

What are your favorite foods to pack for lunches? I crave hot food this time of year (so not really packing salads).
