I had a bad week last week up to and including yesterday. I need to publicly declare that I'm getting back on track today. I've been skipping protein drinks, getting only 30-40 grams each day. Starting today, I'm back to my 2 drinks a day and the 65-80 grams I need. No more skipping my supplements. I've been head-hunger snacking. No more. I eat at meal times only. I've been allowing myself increasing amounts of sugar. It ends today. I'm back to a nearly no-sugar diet. If I'm offered sugar, I refuse, starting today. I've not exercised in over a week. This I can't begin today due to work schedule, but this week I'm getting back on track with my walking. I generally do it every other day for 30 minutes. I did NOT do all this, and get this far, only to stop now! I have about another 50-70 lbs. I want to lose and I'm going to do everything in my power to make it happen. STARTING RIGHT NOW!!!

Tom, Thanks so much for the post! I can pretty much echo your thoughts...starting this minute. NO MORE!!! We've come to far, and I'm not going back! And you're not either!

Good for you Tom. Don't beat your self up over the past. Make plans for the future and stick to them. Good luck to you, Kat

Ugh- Tom- me too! I feel like I ate all day yesterday! I wasn't even hungry, just bored, and I snacked and snacked. I did do my protein, but that's all I did right! I also didn't walk Saturday or Sunday, and I usually walk at least 45 minutes 7 days a week. My husband is out of town and I was bored and lazy. NO MORE! I've also been testing the sugar thing, and that has to stop!

I wouldn't say I had a bad week, but I am testing my limits and getting a little lax in some areas. Exercise was not a priority last week and I can feel it. I'm with you on the rededication though. I just feel so damn good that I don't want to sacrifice it for some stupid old habit. So ... TODAY is another day! (Sorry Scarlett) Take care, J

Well Tom, as you can see by the posts we all have been going through this kind of stuff one way or another, but the important thing is to get ourselves back on track. That sounds like what you are planning to do so good job!

Me, too, Tom, me too! I went about 2 weeks pretty lacksidaisical about my protein and haven't been exercising, which, I think accounts for my stall. I too had to reaffirm - 2 protein shakes a day, more water, and Saturday, I walked a 5K. I'm right there with you!

Good for you Tom! We all have ups and downs, but getting back on the right track and forgetting about the downs is the key. You're back on track and doing great! ~Wanda

Tom, We are with you! I've been exercising, but, have been doing the head hunger snacking which is slowing my weight loss. NO MORE! Lori 394/292/170
