Hi Trish

I SO hear ya on the cookie thing. I remember the days when one crumb wouldn't pass my lips...groan, why did I go down this path.

On the wine front, thankfully I can't drink alcohol so don't have that problem to deal with too!!!

It all sounds so easy in theory doesnt' it, but doing it is another matter...

Enjoy your weekend

Well yesterday I did not stop eating until I finally hauled my @ss to the gym for the first time in weeks over the summer, and decided that I'd had more than my quota of calories for a week let alone a day!  Probably didn't actually eat too many calories if I think about it, but did keep eating...grr I hate it when that happens - hasn't for ages (months and months).  I feel so out of control and what it was like pre wls.

BUT...the good news is that I did 1 hour of cardio - burnt up 300 calories, and did finally stop eating.

Enjoy your weekend if I dont' get around to posting.  Keep active and on top of your game.

Hugs,

Good morning All

How did yesterday go?  I thought I'd been doing faily well until I got on the scales this morning and found I'd gained a pound :o(  I find that though, the more I focus on it, it seems the worse I do.  If I don't focus on it, I do better but don't lose - just maintain.

I really want to start losing again, even though my body obviously likes this weight.  Found these canned soya beans in tomato sauce which I like and are very filling and packed with protein, so I'm going to stock up on those, and try to cut my carbs again.

So here's the thoughful bit of the day...

What do you think has been the BEST part of losing weight?

For me it is the improved health and fitness.  I love that I can run around with my daughter and still am able to breath and not be a bit out of breath!  This summer we ran along the beach which was a fantastic feeling.  I love when she puts her arms around me and can give me a proper hug - whereas before she could barely reach to my sides.  That feeling is so precious.

I knew i could count on you to "get" me!  Andi 

hmmm that sounds remarkably close to a pma to me!  I am working on getting in my fluids. I did well on Monday, not so great yesterday and am hanging tough today. I have an iced coffee so i suspect i'll be able to get in all my fluids. Sometimes doing the right thing is so daunting.

Am i a bad person because it is bugging the doody out of me when people read a post but don't comment on it? I mean would it freakin' kill some people to show some love or support to someone who is having a tough time on the journey? I swear it's making me buggy lately that people can read but not repsond, are we not worthy of a response or do they just have nothing to say? I mean for cripes sake how's about a i hear your pain and I have faith in you...something so we dont' feel so alone at times. Sorry i'm just ranting like a looney today.
