I am goal oriented. Just having a hard time saying no to carbs right now. Frustrating !!! I have a goal of 195 lbs....I guess I just need to look in the mirror and do it!

It sounds like the stairs were a big project in itself. Is pampered chef a pyramid scheme? I was just talking too someone who did Amway for years. They kept referring to it as scAmway.

Your eating will get back on track. I had regress last fall and got back on track. I did some sleep eating in February and it scared the **** out of me. I try not to beat myself up over ****ty eating, and negative personal actions in general. If I'm kind to myself, acknowledge it happened and think about what I can do different next time.

Stay thirsty my friend, Matt

I function with a chronic pain. Sometimes I had a hard time falling asleep (pain and just overall stress). I got some Delta 8 (made from hemp) and that helps me falling asleep. I tried some "real weed" when we were in Colorado and it really helped me with some nerve pains. But - I got munchies. Plus it's not legal where I live (not even for medical reasons). So when Delta 9 from hemp became available, I decided to give it a try. It worked really well... Delta 9 also knocks me out, but...a few times I woke up in a middle of the night on a sofa with food in my hands or besides me. Sleep eating. Not cool, not cool at all.

do you think the cruise put you on "stuff craving journey"? I know after our trip to San Diego earlier this year it took me a few weeks to get of "just one drink in the evening" crap. Except it was seldom "just one". Unfortunately, with antidepressants - i can't have "just one". I can have "none" - or .. more than one.

I think it was the cruise and allowing myself to dive in headfirst. I am really an all or nothing at all type. I am 100% like you, I am not able to have just one!

hi all

today produced a 1 pound drop in the scale which puts me in a good mood since i was in a stall. it also means i'm 20 pounds from my goal weight which is seeming more do-able now. weight regain- b gone

QOTD: my business is always a 'project' with inventory. I may have bought 60 pieces of kids vintage clothing that i have to photograph, list etc. and a month ago purchased out a ladies inventory of 180 pieces of cosmetics skincare but luckily that part is done and listed. We have been watching how to be rich on netflix and i got the journal yesterday from amazon. it is about designing your 'rich' life and removing roadblocks to get there. the actual financial book comes in a few days which is the companion book. the good news is that is seems DH and i have the same ideas about our future and what we want to do so that is all positive.

Food:

new to me nespresso! It works great but is missing the drop tray. Its really not a big deal and i can always order the part.

water

really unknown today, i made chicken and tater logs for DH last night which means he will not want to eat chicken again.

the everyplate order comes today so i could just pick something from that.

I'm super interested in your specialties of reselling. How did you settle on those categories to be your niche?

What are tater logs? Congrats on breaking the stall!

started with antiques and clothing, then started moving more over to perfumes, makeup health and beauty and it sells better generally.

Tater logs are potatoes that are cut fatter into logs and air fried with seasoning. DH is a normie so i usually add starches to his meals, I may eat a few of his. or a bite.

Congratulations.

I'm on "lose the covid regain "for good journey. I had 30 lbs to lose. The first 10 just dropped, then I was in a stall for 2 months. Then I rapidly lost 10 lbs and ...I'm back in a stall... I have 12 lbs to go (10-14 lbs depends on a day). i hate the up and down 2 lbs.. ugh.. I know it would be slow, but "that slow???" ugh.
