The evenings are hardest for me too! I do so good during the day because I'm busy cleaning or doing errands. 3:00 is like the witching hour I can't seem to get full. I have a snack at 3 then dinner at 5:30. I try hard not to eat after that; however, last night I gave in and ate Cheerios with skim milk at 8. Oh well today's a new day I hope to get over this evening hunger some day.

Have a great day botters!

It's  a beautiful day here in Indiana!

I was one of those people who loved ice cream but after surgery I can hardly get it down so when I really think I want some I stop at McDonalds and get a vanilla cone and still have trouble with it. I don't do this often or I would be in trouble. I to have started exercising and really I can do this it is a matter of wanting to. You all remind me that we didn't go through this surgery for nothing and I will keep trying. Thanks for your inspiration.

The evenings are the hardest aren't they? I know that's my hardest time. I'm going to plan a snack and go to bed earlier or I get bored and start looking for munchies if I stay up too late

Am struggling but not giving up!  It is typical...I do well until about 3:00p.m.  I'm stubborn enough to overcome myself.   think I'll plan my food for tomorrow and get myself busy at 3:00.

Hi Tri, Hala and Botts,

Today I did pretty good food wise and for exercise I walked Lola around the block, baby steps right? I did have leftover lasagna for dinner but a small serving with extra ricotta and left some of the noodle.

Breakfast: half a cup of plain greek yogurt with a tsp of honey and a tbsp of pecans

Snack: hard boiled egg

Lunch: 1 egg 2 egg whites 4 oz mushrooms cooked in oil and butter and topped with an ounce of mozzarella with a tbsp each of salsa and sour cream

Dinner: that lasagna I told you about

Evening snack: going to have an apple and an ounce of cheddar

Have a great evening everyone

Today I have to finish weeding the garden, cutting off dead spring parenials, planting topsoil, grass and gladiolas and spreading 2 bags of mulch.  That will take hours through out the day.  3 hours so far.  I would love to go to the gym for a swim and suna this evening.  I am down 15 lbs. since last summer, but I am 13 lbs. above my surgical weight.  I have a long way to go.  Relosing is difficult but not impossible.   Have a great day.  Tri

I am with you tomorrow.  I have company coming again next weekend so I have to reclean the house and wash laundry and sheets.  I am falling behind on the weeds too. No more excuses for me either.  I need to do this.  We can do this.  Tri
