First Day of Fall Coffee

Good Morning Everyone!
It's the first day of fall. Have your celebratory mug ready this morning! What's waking you up? Decaf and black brewing for me!
80's today in this part of the state, today. Don't you love it! Enjoy as the these kind of days are getting fewer and fewer...
QOTD-What is your biggest challenge lately? I'm really trying to cut the grazing I've been doing. Being at home a lot has made this a big challenge for me. It's so easy to graze-eat with the band and I know it will catch up with me if I don't stop. I'm not buying my trouble foods, like peanut butter. I'm also just doing 3 meals and 2 small snacks.
Want to nip this in the bud....
Have a good one!
Deb

Good Morning!
Drinking CL now at work. 

I love Summer and Fall, but these days are crazy.  It's damp and yucky here now, but I heard it will be 80 when Nick comes home on the bus.  I wasn't sure what to dress him in today.

QOTD-staying awake!  We're going through another non-sleep period with Nick.  He has been waking up around 3am for the day.  Dave and I are pretty much walking zombies.  Last night I had a school committee meeting and my eyes kept drooping.  It was pretty embarrassing!  Luckily I only have to stay at wor****il 2pm today. 

Hope you all have a great day!!

Good Morning Michigan :)

Water for me this morning, Followed with a protein drink and lots of vitamins.  Yum...  lol.  I Love Love Love the fall weather.  I'm pretty excited that I am now 40# away from my goal weight.  I am not excited that I feel like I am going bald.  I have started taking biotin and I hope it helps, I would not look good bald.  :) 

QOTD-  My biggest challenge lately has been getting my water in and staying away from the foods I know I shouldn't eat.  Now that my pouch is a little less fussy I find it easier to "try"  foods I probably shouldn't.  I am going to my second support meeting tonight. 

I love fall-since September 1st my house is decorated with fall leaves, plants and pumpkins, and I am trying to stretch out the Halloween icicles that I bought so I can hang them.

 QOTD-What is your biggest challenge lately?

Grazing, definitely. I do fine all day, then at night I go wild.  I brought ice cream back in the house and have a bowl each night along with a handful of nuts.  Just enough to keep me right where I am weight-wise.

My bedroom is all fall leaves, etc.  It has been that decor since last fall when I moved here.  Prior it was my favorite flower...lilacs!  You should consider that.  I am going to decorate today (I like to wait for the first official day)! For my bedroom, I just need to make the fall quilt I been meaning to learn to do it.  I got all the fall fabrics last year.

Good Morning!

I'm waking up to protein hot chocolate.  WOW what a muggy day!  I am on vacation the rest of the week getting ready for my up coming surgery.  I have "winter" things I do every year and decided to get them done now so I'm not scrambling in mid-November to do them.  I really don't know much about the recoup time on the TT but don't want to take any chances on not getting things done.

QOTD-  I"m not getting my water in like I should lately so by the end of the night when I realize just how little I have drank all day I start plugging away at it and then I'm up all night "going".  So today I'm going back to writing it down . . that is the only way I can keep myself accountable.

Have a great day!

Good Morning all!

Boy I slept like a baby last night.  Must have been the Tylenol Pm I took before going to bed :-)  I wish I could have stayed in bed a few hours longer.

I had a glas of skim milk this morning and now having a half cup of Weight Control oatmeal. 

QOTD:  My biggest challange lately (and really ever since I had surgery) is getting in 64 oz of water or fluids each day.  I also struggled with getting in all my vitamins, but now am on a pretty good schedule and I think I've made a habit of it.  Another challenge for me is I tend to eat the same foods day after day.  I need to be less afraid to try new things.  I'm not so afraid of getting sick as much as I'm afraid it will stop my weight loss.   It's all mental, I know, but I'm working on it (that's why I'm having oatmeal today for breakfast instead of my normal Carbmaster yogurt!).

Have a good day everyone!
