Happy Thursday VBG Family

Happy Thursday morning to you all! I am looking forward to the weekend. Wi**** was a 3 day weekend though. My house is a wreck. How does it get that way soo fast?? Feel pretty good about my eating. I did eat 5 small meals yesterday instead of 3. Not bad overall though. I have been spending a lot of time working on my Ebay store. I sell mosaic tile sets at my store on Ebay. I joined the Yahoo VBG group that was posted in another message by Tammy. Other than that not much new. Sharon -115#

Hey SC I'm doing okay this week. All I had this week was watermelon, watermelon and more watermelon. I had a couple sugar free popsicles too. I'm going to try some cream of wheat this morning for breakfast, but my tummy is still a little jumpy from the virus so I'm taking it easy. Can you post or send me the link for the Yahoo VBG group. I'd love to check it out. Have a great day everybody!!! Jenelle

Jenelle This is the info that Tammy provided in one of the other posts here at VBG... The VBG yahoo group is at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/AfterVBG/ Feel free to join and ask any questions to the group. Sharon

Good Morning Everyone! It feels SOOOO good to be of sugar. I can't believe the difference in my mood. Yesterday I was very good and will be today too! It's odd that when I don't eat Any sugar Ever, its like I don't need willpower to stick to a diet. And there are so many alternatives to sugar, I don't understand why I keep going back to it and sabotoging (sp?) myself. Good job keeping to your diet Sharon! I'm going to try and catch up with your weight loss of 6 pounds in two weeks, but that's a LOT for me. I've lost 3 this week though, so Maybe! I like the yahoo group, but it is even less active than this board. Sharon- it feels like my weeks start on Thursdays now! I really look forward to them and its WAY better than trying to start a new 'diet week' on a Monday. I don't know why I'm so wacky that way, but its all about the timing for me. Have a great weekend!! Tammy

Tammy, I am soooo happy for you! I know this was a struggle. Congratulations, you must be proud of yourself! Congrats also on the 3# weight loss. You go girl! Oh Happy Day... Sharon

OMG could the 'struggle' be over? I feel so STUPID now for not using my tool and for wasting so much time with the sugar addiction. Now that I'm off sugar again, its like there is NO willpower involved in regards to eating. I stay under 1000 calories a day, and eat for fuel. Weight loss is 5 pounds now!!! woohoo! It's SO good to be back on the losing side. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU Sharon Have a great weekend! I know I plan to! Tammy

Tammy Smiling from ear to ear for you! Sharon

Hi Tammy!!! Just sending you some weekend "strength"! Sharon

Thanks Sharon! I did do a lot of stupid things this weekend, but eating sweets was NOT one of them! I Did have a bag of micro kettle corn, loaded with sugar I know, but technically not candy or sweets, so I'm not going to beat myself up about it. I'm just going to get right back on track today. Other than Yesterday, I've stayed under 1000 calories every day this week, and lost a total of 5 pounds! It sure would be nice to repeat that. Happy Monday! Tammy

Yeah for you! 5 pounds is awesome! Good job. I weigh in tomorrow "officially". Pretty sure I gained a couple of pounds or didn't lose anything! Will wait to see. Sharon
