HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY SUNDAY

Accountability Mission: No Mercy and No Excuses

As you enjoy your weekend, take a minute to check yourself.  Be sure you stay on track with each meal. 

Tell the whole truth and be accountable.   Where do you stand in relation for the week?  Have you blown it recently and decided to blow off the rest of the weekend?  Start fresh on Monday perhaps? 

Does that fresh start ever really come?  What do you sacraficed for adding to your blunder?  Is it rational to address poor eating with an extra day of poor eating?   

Its a struggle.  Its even a hardship at times.  Its also a blessing.  We can do this. 

...All are welcome, jump in at anytime.

Protein Sparing Modified Fast (PSMF)
The no op version.  This version is still severe but far more liberal than the one many pre ops are given.

Yesterday

Fat(g) 48%	Carbs(g)  19%	Net C(g)	Prot(g) 33%	KCals
89.28	82.28	67.63	123.43	1680

I ate out sending carbs over the top with a slice of garlic bread and a taste of bread pudding and a taste of those all carb salads from the salad bar.  Calories not atrocious but ratios are way off making the carb issue worse.  

Big sigh.  Time to get on the scale and see the damage.   

Oh, and I did not drink my water either.  Just another notch on the scale. 

I went over in calories yesterday, so I did an extra 30 mins on the treadmill. My carbs protein and fat were all in order. I did get all my vitamins in and I had my 64 ozs of liquids. Still need to increase but 64 is better than zero. I was very hungry yesterday. It seems to get harder each day and the scale is no help. It wants to go up and down. I must be done losing weight this month. In a couple of weeks my body will probably let go a pound or two. I know the scale does not mean much thats why I am not giving up. I should start using measuring tape so I can see the inches melt away. My stomach can stand to lose some inches. I went to the grocery store yesterday and purchased myself some stay on track snacks. I had orange chicken my hubby made because I didn't have anything thing else to eat in the house. I made sure to make it to the store and get some light popcorn, salad, cucumbers, vinegar, ff dressing, Greek yogurt, and etc. Healthy  snacks are good to have because they keep me from eating all the wrong things. 

We have to learn what works or us then do it.  Good adding exercise to burn those extra calories. 

I made it through yesterday without any junk food,  first time in MONTHS!!!!.


The prayers are working.   Think i'll do a thread about it.

Congrats Lee.  Think I ate a little of that junk.

Knew you could do it MsLee.  Keep it going.  Stay strong. 

All my dark chocolate covered raisins are gone so I should be good to go next week.  Been craving old fashioned winter, belly sticking foods.  Working on portion control today.

Portion control is a *****  I must weigh and measure then fight the urge to go back for more. 

Portion control a good and bad word.  I am learning to put the food up right away.  It helps in two ways.  I clean up the kitchen and don't keep looking at it.
Bears losing almost gave me a dark attack but so far I'm being a woman.  Might have to turn in early tonight cuz Jack and Evan are both in the house.
