HOLD MY FEET TO THE FIRE! ACCOUNTABILITY TUESDAY

Tell the whole truth and be accountable. Have you asessed how you can best make this a productive week? We can focus on the non scale victory as well you know. For some of us, mastering these will be the way to lasting scale victory.
These dysfunctional behaviors we hold tight to translate into wasted time as we work towards our best health. It may be related to food, or exercise, or paying attention to the rules of vitamins, water and drinking with meals. Anything that holds you back. Think about the time lost and the energy wasted fretting over your dysfunctions for want of letting go.

V'N MY RNY. WORKING FOR ME BECAUSE I WORK FOR IT.
Hey MSW,
Jumping back on the wagon....
I will start tomorrow and post my previous days effort. I like that approach...so that I am communicating my success rather than what I plan to do. So far so good today. The girls and I have been going to the rec center regulary. Getting in my treadmill/eliptical and Swimming. My youngest is at risk...so I need to jump this into gear for her as well as myself. She reminds me so much of myself at that age...obsessed with food. It makes me want to cry sometimes when I see her looking forward to the next meal when she has not even finished the current one yet. I am optimistic that its not too late to reinforce good eating habits. Hope all has been going well with you. I am going to come on mainly to post weight related stuff... cant let the site take too much of my time...especially during the day...when I have other things to handle. Good to see you are stil around. My goal is to stay under 1200 cal a day. When I get to another stall...I will drop off of the carbs for a little while.

I'm slipping too close to the overweight bmi range for comfort when I need to be at least five pounds below it. Frustration is not the word for it but I'm sticking to plan in spite of the rising numbers.
I will not radically cut calories or increase exercise. I will maintain a deficit sufficient for a one to three pound weight loss per week, even if I am still gaining. I will get my food choices and total carbs back in line so my ratios stay in line. I will buy some vits.
Got a lot to do today. If nothing else, its a decent hair day.

I am doing really well again. I honestly think that my mood swings are due to hormones and getting ready to go through the dam CHANGE 
I got my positive almost all the way back, today that is, don't really know what tomorrow will bring but i'm trying to stay positive every single day.
Last weel I walked a total of 32 miles, i'm so proud of that and I'm doing just as good this week, don't think i'll really try to increase miles or time cause of my broken down knees, but I think the most important portion of this thing for me is my head any dam way.

That's a lot of miles to log on foot. You already know most runners rarely get to half that a week. Keep doing how you're doing. An increase may hurt more than help with those knees. Time to look for some upper body based cardio.
As for the change? I think this new thyroid med has me hot flashing once or twice a week. Can't wait to be tom free. Gonna get tested cause I don't have a normal cycle. Last time I thought I was there the test results just said PSYCH! 
No time soon.

I have been walking 5 miles a day but I think i'm going to decrease that this week because I am also doing a Taebo tape when I get home from the walk and while my knee is not hurting it is tired and it popped on my walk this morning, so i'm taking tomorrow off on the long walk.
I will be wearing a pair of new jeans to school that I purchased ast summer and never have worn before, and while they fit as Becca would say, I say they are skin tight but i'm going to wear them because my jeans I wear now all of them are really looking like bags, much baggier than I even usually wear them.
What my ass needs to do is kick up my water, I have been slacking like crazy over the past week so today i'm going to try my best to drink more water over this week. I have set a goal that at the least i will have 4 water bottles at LEAST.

Good Evening everyone,
Seems like all have gotten the mindset to do what must be done to get where they want to go. All is well for the moment.
I am happy for every good and positive moment we have. Life can be short so I too am enjoying positive thoughts and actions.
No short term goals on my horizon. My plan is to keep it simple. I am still working to lose these remaining pounds and would love to have them gone by November of this year. So I will continue to post and adjust my menus to achieve success.
Here's what I ate yesterday. Carbs gone wild but calories didn't.
This too will pass.
