snapdragon: just goes to show - food is more pleasurable in the mind than it is on the tongue! :D I particularly like brownies too. :) I have some protein powder and a recipe for brownies that uses protein powder, and I'm trying to figure out if I should count that as a sweet or as lunch. :? ETA: al...

I've been curious about this topic too. The other day I was at the car shop having my oil changed, and was in the waiting room, which is separate but still attached to the shop itself (so it smelled like oil and was in general very "stale" feeling), and someone brought in a toddler and immediately s...

Silly stress... getting in the way and causing trouble! :? Don't worry - stressful days get to everybody sometimes! Each day is a brand new day - forgive yourself and give yourself a fresh start. As long as we learn from each "red" experience they're not wasted, and we'll improve every day! :D You c...

Good job on your successes, Jonas! I'm so proud of you! :D I know that jiggely feeling that you're talking about... where you're starting to anticipate food and it sounds really good and comforting but you know it's not time. I get that too about an hour before lunch! I always pop some sugar free pe...

update: I did shovelgloving for the first time yesterday! I have to be very careful because my cats think they have to help give me encouragement by sitting at my feet the entire time, but I managed to not whack any of them. :wink: 8lbs is heavier than I imagined it would be doing those exercises! s...

Thanks for the positive comments about me teaming up with my coworker! It's always good to have online AND IRL help when possible, even though my IRL person and I are taking different routes to healthy. :D And thank you, Jonas! I'm kind of proud of my path thus far, but I'm not proud of the fact tha...

Everybody's different! :D That's my favorite part about message boards - everyone can throw ideas together and we can take what we want and leave what doesn't work for us. :) I bought Brain over Binge: Why I was Bulimic, Why Conventional Therapy Didn't Work, and How I Recovered for Good last night a...

My mind is already trying to get side tracked by "shiny diets", and it's only January 8th. I've been pretty much ignoring the Nutrisystem, Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers commericals on tv (that play about a thousand times an hour!), but then I was reading some weight loss success stories today and ...

That pesky calorie counting likes to poke its' head into your thoughts at the most inconvenient times, doesn't it? :( It's hard to get over, but keep trying!

I haven't read the book, but I'm always looking for a good read. I'm going to look it up right now! :D "S" days is where I failed in the past before, and that's why I started incorporating intermittent fasting with No S. I personally fast for 19 hours a day (and eat during a 5 hour window) every day...
