Good Morning Missouri!!

Hey guys, Where is everybody? I'm worried about possible turkey overdoses or shopping stampedes. Since I avoided the crazy stores yesterday, I'm feeling fine. I also managed to eat safely both days, so I am not sick. What's everybody doing today? Linda

I have been having a tough time eating healthy since mid-October (although I've been sliding backwards ever since early summer). I got on the scale yesterday (fully dressed), and the scale read 235, where just a week ago, it would say 225 (naked). OUCH! SOOOOO...today, I am eating very healthy. I am taking my daughter to the gym to swim, so I will work on making sure I move the whole time. THEN, I am going to sit down and come up with a plan of attack for getting myself back on track. Oh, yeah...and maybe I will shop some more! Pamela -124 on a good day

Pamela, have you tried using fitday.com? I do when I feel like I'm not eating right, etc. It's a free website where you can enter your FOOD, exercise, etc. It always helps me get back on track! Hang in there, Kristen

Pam, I hope you can find a plan of attack, so you can get back on track. You have done so well. I always love reading your posts. You are an inspiration to me. I have lost 75 lbs. so far. I am half way to what the charts say I should lose. If I ever am able to do that, I will faint. I haven't weighed in the 150s since high school. Definitely shop some more. Buy more clothes that you do not want to have to give away. That can be inspirational. If there is anything I can do, let me know. I fight my own battles with the demon food. Linda

I know, It has been way too quiet around here! Must be a lot of out of town visits and lots of out of town people visiting. That'll keep you off the computer and in the kitchen for sure! (cleaning!!) Let me think of a way to get some activity started.....I'll be back. ~~Kristen

Nana, Great to see your post. I have been busy with visitors etc, so have not been on much. I never go shopping the day after Thanksgiving but I know a lot of people who do. Glad to hear you ate safely both days. I was able to have some mashed potatoes on turkey day. That was a treat. Colette
