Weekly Weigh In week of 10/22

Yay KIM!!!!!! great 2 pound week you are doing terrific!!!! I am addicted to exercise ...who woulda thought have a great day, Britt

last week was 155, this week is 156 so I gained a pound, but Af was here over the weekend. I am trying to stay on track but until I can start really exercising I think I am doing good to stay where I am. I am working on getting a recorder so that we can record tv and maybe start going to the gym in the evenings. If that doesn't work, I may end up getting some kind of exercise equipment to use at home. I hate not doing something, plus the more I sit and watch tv, the more tempted I am to snack. I am really trying to stay away from snacking but it is soooo hard. I eat a normal dinner and an hour or two later, feel like I am starving. I also know there is no way I am really hungry. I have been trying to use water but that doesn't quite do it. I found a great site on another forum on here for helping you get back to your new stomach size when you have started overdoing the snacking...so why am I afraid to try it? Some days I feel like I am such a failure. But I keep trying and I will keep trying and for now I am basically maintaining and until something changes, I am ok with that for the moment.

Hi Barb! try enjoying a hot cup of tea of sugar free hot coco when that snack attack comes on ... maybe that followed by water with hit the spot! hang in there you CAN do it hugs, Britt

Barb, you are NOT a failure!! Push those thoughts right out of your head. You are 156 pounds! Let that sink in. 156! You have gained enough awareness to know when your making good choices or bad choices. You know what to do and how to do it. YOU ARE A SUCCESS! You can do it! Wanda
