What are you eating/doing today? (Sunday - Mother's Day)

Morning all :) Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there! And here's hoping my son remembers. lol

Resident insomniac checking in - nothing like starting the day at 3 AM. Seriously, nothing. I'll visit with my mom this afternoon and have a painter coming in to give me an estimate (painting the whole place) which I'm looking forward to. Other than that - perhaps a nap! lol

B - coffee with cream x 3 over the morning, 1 scrambled egg over peppers, mushrooms, onions, 1.5 oz old cheddar

S - 1/2 cup Greek yogurt, a few strawberries and grapes

L - 1 small flour tortilla baked into a bowl, garden salad, sunflower seeds, 1 oz ham, 1 oz cheddar, Italian dressing

S - likely just tea, Premier protein shake if I'm "empty"

Have a great day!

Hi Karen

Happy Mother's Day to all the OH Moms, Gramas, Aunties and all those other Maternals out there! A Mothers love comes in many different forms and all should be honoured. 

I woke up to a text from my son! And he sent it at 6 am. That's all I need but I hope I get a call too.

Today is not weigh in day but I have been losing little and my cycle seems to be dictating my weight loss. I mini stall for two or three weeks and then lose a chun****ep a spreadsheet so the pattern was easy to detect.

So I have finally cracked the 80 lbs milestone. My 100 lbs by my 50th (Oct 6), has become a realistic goal now. Holy crap.

For those who get discouraged with stalls, have faith, you're not the only person in the world that this procedure won't work on! I know, this is how I felt on my first stall and even my second. I stall all the time, even with weighing in once a week.  It ****** me off but that is how I lose.

Lots of support from this thread reassured me! Log, exercise and eat right and it will happen. You may lose weird like me. I am not done, far from it!

Off to the cottage for yard work. Maybe a visit to my MIL. I saw my Mother yesterday.

great day to all!

Keeping your emotions in check is so important during the losing phase.....as stalls are often part of the package....Good for you Jo for knowing this and managing your expectations.....100 pounds down by Oct 6th is not only very do-able....but I suspect you will surpass this

 

Well done Jo!

Sucks doesn't it? Hey, do you like Scrabble? I'm always looking for fellow-insomniacs to play Words With Friends via phone in the middle of the night! LOL
