Everyday Systems

Halfway there!

Day 10: success!

It helps that right now all I'm craving are fruits, veggies, and dairy. Mmm.

This is starting to get so simple. I am glad I allowed myself to snack a little, being pregnant, but I am sticking to the fruits and veggies rule. I had some grapes last night.

Day 9: Success!

Its so easy to stick to this now though! I still wait for the weekend though.

Day 5: Friday, great! Success!
Day 6: S-day
Day 7: S-day
Day 8: Success!

Made it to Friday! Weekend is easy, so this is great!

Day 4: Success! This is starting to get easier.

Congratulations on your first great start! Welcome! I'm pretty new to this too, so I have no advice, but I'm happy you're trying to be healthier and joining us!

Day 3: Success. Great day. I twice resisted seconds, but didn't go to bed hungry.

Day 2: Success. Ate a late dinner instead of a snack. All was well.

Day 1: Success, with reservations. I think with being pregnant I may need to allow myself some leeway. After dinner last night I was still hungry. Not just wanting to snack, HUNGRY. Having a little baby in me makes me reluctant to stop myself from eating when I feel that hungry. I don't want to be u...

Happy Spring!! @sarah.grace- Thanks so much! I'm due November 20. I know I should be filling up with nutritious stuff and not crap for the baby, so I think this is great still! Its tough sometimes, though, because although I haven't had a lot of cravings or morning sickness, sometimes I have no appe...

@osoniye Seriously, I almost did. But I kept sipping my tea and tried desperately to ignore him. Day 2: Success Yesterday went without a hitch. I didn't like the dinner I made so I ate something else later. I had only had a bite of dinner, and the meal I had later was small so I'm letting it go. I t...

Day : Success!

Nothing to report. Though I had a hard time not eating popcorn last night when my husband was.

I can't excuse pie two days in a row.

Day7: Failure.

Try again starting today!

Weigh-in today at 149.

Thanks so much for the support! I am hoping this will help me just be healthier in general. I'm finding it a lot easier than I thought. I think knowing that I can have some "off-days" on the weekend really help me stay on track the rest of the week. Its great I'm running again, too! Thanks again! Hi...

Day 6 was weird. I made it an S-day.

There are good reasons for this. I was celebrating. Something awesome. With pie. And I don't feel bad about it. Back on the wagon today, but I'm not taking a hit for this one. :):):):):)

so Friday was Day 3: I am ending my no-S weeks on Friday before dinner and starting them up again on Sunday before dinner. Day 3: Success . I did gorge myself on homemade frites and mussels, but it was after my changeover, and therefore S. Day 4: S-day . I ran, too. I'm concerned though on my eating...

Day 2: Success

Nothing weird to report. I did eat the last couple scallops out of the pasta because they would go bad otherwise, but scallops are negative calories (not really but really low) so I am letting this one slide.

Weigh in today: 148 lbs. (-2) woo! Let's see if it lasts. OK, so although I'm not really sure about how yesterday goes, I think to do this right the first 21 days I can't call yesterday a success. Day 7: FAILURE . As I said yesterday, my daughter took my wallet so I had no lunch. A co-worker let me ...

OK, I am afraid to actually ask this question. I just started this last week and I have a problem with it. My "indulgences" usually happen on Friday nights AND the weekend. Can I start my S-days Friday after dinner and quit my Sunday S day before dinner? In other words, treat Friday as an N day unti...

So I started doing this last Wednesday. I think I should start right there. Day 1: FAILURE I had brought a cookie for lunch and THEN decided to do this. I ate the cookie anyway. Restart! Day B1: SUCCESS Funny stuff: totally had two sandwiches at dinner, one of which went to my plate after the first....
