So true! I feel this way almost every time I eat out. The sodium intake kills me even if I order something 'healthy'. |

I think it was around the early part of my monthly that I had the little binges I mentioned. I can relate! Congrats to everyone for the positive results. Christina, I'm sorry that medication is miserable. I hope you won't have to take it long-term. |

Third time trying to post this....
We shall see what happens, but Im going back on the diet I used when I lost 60 pounds. No high fructose corn syrup or partially hydrogenated oils or refined sugars. More fruit and fresh veg and more protein (during breakfast). Walk/bike more. If this doesnt work I dunno what else to do.

Oh no! I'm sorry about that, Christina. At least it may not be forever.
Moose, good luck on your diet and fitness mission. I hope that plan works well for you again. If not, there certainly could be another that works. My diets have varied over the years. Right now I'm trying to combine the best aspects of a few. |

I’d like to jump in with you folks. I’ve lost 13 pounds recently by cutting out the gourmet jelly beans (I was eating a TON of them due to stress). I’m going to start an eating plan I came up with tomorrow and work on exercising more consistently as well.
Great thread! |

Put the following ingredients in a blender: A whole banana, 1 cup frozen blueberries, 1/2 cup granola cereal (with flax seeds), 2 tablespoons natural peanut butter, fill in the rest with milk - cover the other ingredients. Blend well. ( Serve alone or with hard boiled eggs on the side.)

Is this just one serving, Moose? Don't get angry, but I thought I'd let you know that that smoothie you described would likely be about 750 calories (assuming 1/3 cup skim milk). With one hard-boiled egg added, it would be over 800 calories total. It sounds yummy, but keep the calories in mind if you want to lose weight. I've been only allowing myself 1,200 calories per day. My tall big-boned husband is trying to stay within 1,500 calories per day. I choose my foods strategically to get the "biggest bang for the buck", so to speak. |

I have completely lost my appetite since returning from vacation. I am managing a veggie burger or a can of soup a day and I’ve lost 5 pounds since I returned. I know this is NOT healthy. Tomorrow, I’m going to take the bull by the horns and eat breakfast, lunch and dinner.
I’ve fallen down on the exercise part as well. I’ll start that back on Monday. Physically....I feel fine. I’m grateful for that. |

This morning (my weigh in day) I'm down another 1.4 lbs. I actually thought it would be more, but I know it's a good loss. Thing is that I feel like I have lost more. That counts as extra.
So, these past two weeks I've lost 3.4 lbs (1.5 kg) and 1.4 lbs (0.64 kg) = 4.8 lbs (2.2 kg) total. |

Great job BirdDancer on another productive week. It seems like your program is paying off. 1.4 lbs in a week is something to be proud of.
I'm still trying to get the scale to move, but I'm trying not to stress about it. I cut out refined sugar the last few days and it has made a difference. I've exercised every day except for 3 days over the last 30 days. I'm happy with that because I know I'm healthier for it. That's the most important part for me. Wishing everyone a healthy and happy weekend! |

I feel well mood-wise and physically today, but yesterday (Saturday) I was unwell through about 1 pm. The day before (Friday) was very stressful. We had a guest over for dinner, and then a second guest joined us for dessert. We all drank too much. Normally, I won't allow myself more than 1 drink in a day (2 on special occasions), but I confess that I drank about 4 that night. I suffered the consequences because of that and having taken my evening medications too late at night.

I feel very good mood wise but worn out physically with a sore back and sore feet from an active day. It was all worth it though. So sleepy, I may go to bed early.
I’m ashamed to say I’ve had an ice cream cone for food today. I’ll strive to do better tomorrow. |

I ate horribly this weekend. My mind said no and my stomach said yes to everything. I am getting back on track this week. No more excuses. I did keep my exercise up at least, so there's that.
I just responded to another post and wrote about how our bodies have a chemical imbalance that causes us to process emotion differently than 'normal' people (I don't believe in normal, but I don't have a better word). I'm now wondering if these same imbalances cause greater than normal cravings for certain foods. I know I go through periods when I simply do not care about what I eat even though I'm trying to be mindful. Sometimes the craving for chocolate is unstoppable! |
