Topic: RE: DAY 22
I just want to say how grateful I am to be able to come here and post every day.  It is keeping me accountable, I  feel that posting everyday is what is keeping me focused and keeping me determined to go all the way with this 6 week program, even if I am not doing it 100% right I will still see it to the end.

I just want to thank Free where ever she might be for getting this started, it is because of her that I bought the book and found this spot...I had never even heard of this book three weeks ago.

I also want to thank Melva and April for hanging in there with me.  We can do this together!!

I am glad tha****er worked for you it works for me also. We are all in the same boat each of us the same at the same time different. We all have something beneficial we can bring to the table. As I go through BDS, I am finding it very helpful whereas you are rationaliziing with yourself before sabataging your plans, and if i do keep on don't stop and go back to point zero.
We are here for you as I am sure you are for us...

Beverley,

I agree 100% thinking things out so far is working, and girlfriend I choose to change where I am now, just because I want to and the power to change is within me. I am Happy now with my almost 200# weight loss but I will be happier when I reach My goal. I have went public about my wants, needs and desires and I have lots of support including us here on OH. I am the type of person that not so much constant but continuous on going support.
I will complete this journey and it helps to talk every day on line to us-our group-, we are walking the same path or journey.

I am here with you, as we both get rid of the back boobs and will be grateful to see the training bra...LOL

I agree this group can beneficial to those who choose to involve themselves.   I am getting encouragement from all of you and I need it.   I am doing better about the night grazing, but I can see that it was a probelm in the past and could creep up  again.   Last night, I really wanted to eat something, not anything good or bad, just something.    Without realizing it, I used your "ice cold glass of water" and it worked.   It must have been thirst, so I am grateful that it worked because now i will try this alternative instead.

I haven't had to use it yet this week, but I know this will come in handy in the future at some point.     I hope today is better for you than yestereday was.     My situation is not really better, but I am calm and at peace about things, so that is a good start.  Small steps on everything, right.

Topic: RE: " THINK"
I was thinking today at the gym, how this last few weeks  doing this BDS has changed my attitude towards losing weight. It is so simple...just make a choice to change your ways and think differently. Up to this point dieting was such a struggle, right now it is really not that much of a struggle....I know this will not always be this easy but I am going to live in the moment right now and ENJOY  this journey!!!!
I was reminded today of  a phrase I use to use all the time that went like this;
"You are were you are right now because this is where YOU choose to be. If you are not happy with where you are right now then YOU have to make the change".

Right now I am in the middle of making changes in my life and I am happy to be making them. It may take me a bit of time to get it right...I may fall of the wagon many times BUT I choose to work on the changes each day till I perfect them.

I was also thinking today about the Advantage list, one of the things on my list is to get rid of the back boobs- back fat....I keep  checking it in the mirror and I'm soon going to need to get a training bra for those things LOL I can't wait to start stroking things off my Advantage list!

Topic: DAY 22

This is hump day of this six week program, it feels great to be half way though!

 Say Oh, Well, to Disappointment

How to deal with resentment and rebelliousness of your diet and exercise life. When the disadvantages of dieting seem greater than the advantages. We need to find a “Oh Well’ attitude and reminding ourselves that though we may not like dieting, it is reality, it is what we have to do to reach our goal. This is a way of life, accept it  and  deal with it.

I’ll be making a card that says “OH WELL , suck it up and do it" to use when I find myself not in the mood to follow my diet or my exercise plan.

Topic: RE: DAY 21

Some people do well with daily weigh  ins others it just gets them down and depressed, it can 

 be our best friend or our worst enemy.

I find that if I don't weigh in for a while, I get afraid to weigh in, and my weight just spirals out of control. When I ignore the scale, I all so ignore what I eat, and before you know it I’m in trouble. This is why I get on the scales daily, for me to avoid the scales it is just one more way I sabotage myself. The number on the scale is data, it’s an indicator of how I’ve stayed with my food plan and how well I’ve done with my exercise. Right now my scale motivates me!!!
 

I love the idea of a graph, last year in June I kept one for 2 months. Together a graph and a food diary was a real eye opener for me. I am looking forward to starting an other one tomorrow.
