BTB week 4 - 12 days till the conference - are you with me?

okay folks.  I just went shopping and i'm more motivated than ever to make the most of it.  Who's still with me?

This has been a real help and challenge and it's been inspiring and painful as well.  FRUSTRATING to say the least.  I have learned a lot - but the most important thing I've learned is that I AM MY OWN WORST ENEMY. I do not appreciate what I have accomplished.

I have also learned that I will always have to think and process what is best for my body.  If I want to stay healthy, it will take more time and effort than most folks. 

So here is what I wanna know:

who's in with me another week?

What have you learned or realized in putting in this extra effort to get back to basics?

I'm in, I have a goal to reach before the convention.  I want to lose 3 lbs, that isn't unreasonable IF I work MY plan.  I've already packed my food for tomorrow and several other days.  I cooked this weekend and made a gallon of Crystal Light so there is NO excuse for me.  The available foods are there, period (saying to self).

I've realized that I too am my worst enemy.  I allow emotions to control my eating even more than I realized before last week.  So it's time to buckle down and work the process.

Hey Becky!!  I'm in this with ya!!  It's really helped me to plan everyday and remember to log my food.  I'm so close to my goal but yet it's sooooooooooooo far away!!!!  It's taking me forever to get these last few lbs off!!!  I gained 12lbs after my surgery due to an unfill.... now I'm almost back to where I was before surgery.  I could probably use another fill but I really don't want to be as tight as I was.  So I'm trying to make this fill work for now.  I'm hoping that this will help keep me on track... I think it has really been helping me so far!

Today I ended the day with 1028 calories and 58 protein.  The protein was lower then I like so I need to work on that for tomorrow.

well...I started the weekend off poorly and then Saturday night just threw me for a loop and I just didn't care all day what I ate. I need to get back on trak too....can't even begin to say what all I ate this weekend because I didn't log. Feeling like crap emotionally and physically today. Thank goodness it is my day off from my mid day job so I taking my girl to my friends and coming home to sleep.  I have determined without a possibilty that I will not be able to make the conference. So sad- but the extra money needed even with the offers of room sharing I had isn't there. Hope everyone does well this week.....

I'm still with you!  This B2B has really helped me focus on what I'm eating.  I'm not losing the weight I was hoping to lose.  But I know I'm eating right and therefore I'm feeling better.
