HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY!
Accountability Mission:
Good Morning to TUESDAY my BAF fam.
Tell the whole truth and be accountable. How did you begin your week? Under control or out of control. This early in the year, many of us are filled with new resolve to get things done. Feed off that energy. Let it drive your success for a little while.
Remember to think total health folks. Eat well and enjoy your food choices. Exercise well and appreciate having the ability to pamper your heart and muscles with activity. Weight loss, healthy weight maintenance, and a healthy lifestyle require lifetime commitment. If you're not yet on it make today the day.

V'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
I did ok yesterday. I bought the vits late but I got them in. A full quart of water, 104 oz liquid 
, over my cardiologists max. I've been thirsty and protein was very high. Workout, cardio all done. Today I'll have to double up on the strength and do my stretching.
As for food? I seriously did not know what to eat all day so I stuck to liquid protein. Five protein supplements & two small meals in the evening. Total under 1250 calories. Maxed on the protein with 185g. Net carbs around 32g. Calorie deficit over 1100 in the 2 lb per week loss range. I know I'm counting 1 to 1 again but I just can't help myself.
Its another I'm feeling like crap day but first I'll hit yesterday's mat work followed by protein coffee and vits. Afternoon, cardio. Evening, weights. Still no clue what to eat, but I will have several scoops of protein and stay over 150g while holding calories to my base rmr.
Lately the night eating urge has been strong, but I'm holding it at bay. Its weired since pre op I would rather drink hot tap water and fool my tummy than have a midnight snack. I am fighting it. Both yesterday's meals were late and I still wanted food at 1 am. I held strong and started on today's liquids instead.
Still talking to myself about appreciating this experience. I'm trying not to stress. Right now this 'journey' is treading on my last nerve.

Wow...MSW...I was looking at your workout routine....talk about intimidating...whew...you are doing great with the exercise. Hopefully I will one day get to that point. I am definitely going to start reporting my food stats...I can see where that can be helpful.
You don't have to share here but can you put your finger on whats making you feel like crap? Is the same thing triggering the late night urges?
I imagine just being that close to goal...it get much harder. I might have to create me an alter ego on paper...write a story about a woman that can eat all she wants and not have to exercise or anything and look dynamite...help me to vent some of my frustration that crop up for me periodically. Sometimes its hard just knowing that I can no longer eat the way I used to without a care until I look in the mirror or walk up stairs.
Hope you feel better soon.

I know exactly what my issue is. No problem sharing it here. My cyber friends know far more about me than even my family does. My health issues are just a little thing.
I have multiple sclerosis and its almost four weeks since my last treatment. I work out hard but the cost is increased fatigue. I'm going to have fatigue 24/7 regardless so I put what I can into my workout then sleep it off. When I push myself I get a backlash and that ****** me off so I'm *****y too, lol. Excercise lets me 'feel' the status of the ms. I know when trouble is comming by my body's ability to perform.
My treatments are due next week but that starts the weight gain. I'm really thinking about skipping just so I can get rid of last month's gain and get the scale moving in the right direction . Fact is, there is no cure only symptom management. If I can stand the symptoms I'm really no worse off.
The urges I'm clueless about. Its a few weeks past my last steroids so thats not likely to be the cause. One reason for skipping next week is after steroids I gain if I eat everything or nothing and I want to eat. Usually just one or two foods I fixate on a few days after the steroids. And of course there is roid rage making me even *****ier
.
Thanks for asking and letting be vent a little. Irl, you rarely talk about chronic health issues. No on e really wants to know. I'm an open whiner and conplainer but even so, stress tend to build up.
I love the idea of writing that story. I write also. Been working on an obesity related novelette for quite a while now. I've got dozens upon dozens of ideas and half finished novels
. I hope you'll copywrite it an let us read it one day.

In regards to writing, I am the same way really....I start but rarely get some of my writing finish....my attention span has really decreased over the years.
