Back On Track Together
Recent Posts
I write about and talk about what I am feeling. I reach out for help if I need it. I feel the feelings, cry, express or discharge in a safe way what's 'eating me'! I check in with myself about what I am really needing. I do collating and other creative expressions if I have some big stuff coming up, for me it's always some form of fear. I don't judge myself for having the desire to eat!
I plan and commit my food, tracking it ahead of time! Drink all 64 oz of my water! I then remove myself from the temptation and go for a walk. I do my affirmations, reminding me that emotions are transitory and temporary, they do change!
I find that if I can find a self nurturing activity to do instead, like taking a shower, rubbing lotion into my body, asking for a hug, taking a nice garden break, I feel better because I am actively turning towards what will feel better!
Then, if I can settle myself down enough, I sit and quiet my mind, meditating for even just 15 minutes really anchors me in!
Hope that helps someone! This journey is made so much easier when you're supporting one another! Thank you Cathy!❤️😀
Good morning botts:
I didn't track yesterday because I was really busy. This week I will be busy because we are having out of town guests again next weekend. I need to wash the windows and change the window treatments in one bedroom. I am changing it from a kids room to an adult room. Then I need to clean the house. The big dog dropped her coat again, but I am going to live with it until Thursday so that I can get my project room done.
My eating plan today is:
B: Jimmy dean whole grain delight
S: fruit salad
L: salad and ham/reduced fat cheese whole grain tortilla wrap
S: Greek yogurt and fruit salad
D: 1/2 green peppers stuffed with grass feed beef; spinach and reduced fat cheese and whole grain tortilla wrap
S; veggie soup, nut crunch bar, banana
I hope everyone has a fun weekend. Tri
Great job on 3 pounds. I also have to work on getting some weight off. My problem is moving, eating is another thing but I really need to find something to get me moving.
Going out of town this weekend and don't know if I will have WiFi so I may not be able to post until sunday. Going to visit a friend who eats healthy so I'm sure I will do pretty good.
Breakfast- 2 eggs
Lunch-mcD bacon ranch salad with grilled chicken and ranch, realized after I put ranch on my salad it was 200 calories!!!
Dinner- going out so chicken or fish with veggies and maybe a baked potato
Have a good day!

It's good to notice the little things in life, because for weeks, I've been struggling trying to get in and out of that chair!! & I was even hurting some nights from the squeeze! So I must be doing something right huh? I'll take it.
I got to keep moving & losing!!
Amen.
I indulged as well, but I did not want left overs, I left it all there! And for all I cared they could have trashed it all. ( although now I think about it, I was off track for 2 days?). I got back on point the very next day! and trying to stay here? or there? which is it.
LOL, we forgive you & you must forgive your self and get back to the losers bench as they used to call it. ( Where we are striving to lose all the unwanted pounds!) if you have not heard of the expression before? It's hard, to stay on track, I know all too well.
Hang on in here, we need YOU!
Peace-jbug
Cauliflower can replace potatoes and starches. I have heard of cauliflower pizza crusts and mashed cauliflower. I am glad you are doing well. Tri
