Starting over 2007
I've been off the board and off the program for several weeks, it's time to get with the program again, and tomorrow I'm starting over.

Wow ! Late congratulations
I joined in Nov. but the last few weeks were a disaster for me, and I'm just now getting back to this BB. Wonderful news about the booK! As for suggestions on the book, all of your postings on this site could be a goldmine of additional material for you or your editor to explore. Secondly, I very mu...

Carrie Ann... I'm starting back on the program too!
Carrie Ann, were you named after the song? I'm restarting tomorrow too. Joined in November and was starting to make a little progress, then we had a major health issue pop up with my 87 year old Mom, and eventually I just blew everything off, health-wise. Even gained a few more lbs. in Dec. I need t...

You know what? I'm GLAD you're venting! There's certainly no need to ever apologize for doing so. This is why we are here, to provide a spring board for each other, also help steer each other toward the positive and away from the negative. Isn't it great that we have each other? Think how much money...

Day 15
Spent the day at the hospital. It's really hard to divorce the two (hospital=coffee!) However I've had no snacks, no sweets, no seconds, so that's a pretty good day! My Mom is recovering enough that they took her off the ventilator and shes breathing just fine on her own, that is a big relief. She's...

Hey Sunshine
Been reading some of your more recent check-in posts. I see you've been hanging around this place for quite a few months. I wonder if you would post a short overview of your experiences here, have you lost weight overall, are you still losing, etc.?
Thanks!
Thanks!

Day 14
Hi Y'all, Thank you for inquiring about my Mom. Her surgery was done on Saturday. Her outlook doesn't seem as good as we had hoped but time will tell so we just have to be patient and see what the next days bring. My last 4 days have not gone as well as I wanted them to. I haven't been eating tons o...

Hi Christi,
BIG congrats on your BP numbers! Yay! I read through most of your check in posts the other day, wow, you've been dealing with a lot. I admire your keep-on-keepin'-on philosophy. Have a good No S day!

I loved hearing about your successful day! One thing I'm finding about this WOE, each successful day is actually its own reward. When you eat this way, you feel good, and good about it. Just keep stacking up those good days, and soon those jeans will be fitting better again.

Multi-tasking
Hi Zoo, My opinion? I suggest taking it one thing at a time. The fact that you commute on a bicycle puts you far and away above the exercise most people do. It does sound to me like you are very motivated but tackling too much at once and not succeeding at anything could be very demoralizing. We wan...

Day 8 check in
Day 8 went well. My mom is in the hospital so I spent the day there with her. Relatives in hospital, that can be a stressful and trying time. But it will be whether you overeat or not! So I didn't overeat. Had 3 squares today. Only exception: I did give in to the coffee pot, and for me, that meant p...

I like your idea of starting a thread for us newbies. I've been thinking the same thing. Maybe a newbie thread each month?

Hi Zoolina!
I'm new here too. I would say, don't worry too much about what you're seeing on the scale. The short term numbers don't mean much, it's the long term numbers you need to focus on. Do you weigh every day? One thing I plan on NOT doing is weighing in at the end of two S days...although next Monday wil...

Hi all, I really, really want to believe in this. Every morning I wake up and say "Today is the day." So I start and have some sort of normal breakfast like a bagel & cream cheese.

Regarding your knee...I believe I may have read in an earlier thread that you have had some physical therapy? If true, was that any help at all? I understand your not wanting to have surgery if there's any way to avoid it, I'd feel the same way if I were you but it may end up being necessary of cour...

I've just finished day 4. I'm hungry a lot. I admit I have not been eating large meals and not a huge amount of calories at them. I guess I just don't feel comfortable eating a big meal, it's something I don't often do. I've had the feeling that when I'm hungry, that means "something" is finally hap...

No need to apologize for rambling, sometimes you HAVE to do that! Regarding the binge eating on weekends, you simply have to get control girl.

I've been trying to manage the weight i...
