One day at a time for me.
No sweets
01: 🔴 (chocolate bar after supper)
02: ✅
03: 🔴 (ice cream in the afternoon)
04: ✅
05: 🔴 (dessert after supper - theoretically since it’s Saturday I would put a yellow - but I had a second piece in the evening so I mark it red)
06: 🔴 (chocolate bar)
07: 🔴 (after supper rice pudding topped off with big bowl of cereal - out of control eating)
08: 🔴 rice pudding in the evening
09: 🔴 rice pudding again
10: ✅
11:
Walk or other exercise minimum 15 min/day
(will be happy with 4 times per week as a start)
01: ✅ 20 min walk
02: ✅ 25 min walk
03: 🔴
04: 🔴
05: 🔴
06: 🔴
07: 🔴 (for the exercise, in my defense, I’ve have had a bad cold for the last 2 weeks and just getting my work day done has taken the little energy I had left)

I'm in on my first challenge!
Mine is Vanilla NoS-
I'm doing no-weigh-May and will weigh in on or around June 7 due to company coming in and my DD's wedding shower in early June.
Notes:
Wednesday evening will be a NWS day because I am doing wedding cake tasting with my DD.
Final Note:
Good month!! NoS was great- stayed on track, with one NWS for a cake tasting day with my DD for her upcoming wedding.
DID NOT WEIGH for all of May; will weigh sometime in the first week or so of June after the bridal shower and company leaves town.

I'll keep on tracking No-S days and steps. Good luck everybody!
No-S
17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25 26 27
28 29 30 31
8k steps
17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25 26 27
28 29 30 31
1 - Upped my steps to 8k. I expect to be walking 10k steps by the end of this month since i've been having very little pain and feel actually excited to exercise.
8 and 9 - Two really hard and exhaustive days. I really need to rest. Work is crazy and life is always a hurry.
12 - 16 - I'been sick and my eating was all over the place... meaning sometimes i ate several times a day but really small quantities or i just couldn't eat at other times. This emoticon is for the days when i was at my worst and i have no idea if they should be green or red. I'm still not 100% but i'm back to my 8k steps and my 3 meals a day.

Hey if I can do it so can you. I have one more day then it's a week.Dalia negra wrote:Ohhh ... how happy I am, Soprano! I have failed miserably in not weighing myself, but we are only on the third day of the month, so I am still in time to achieve it. Tomorrow I will try not to step on the scale.
It's killing me though, my dress felt looser today and I'm dying to know

Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.

It's fantastic!!!!!
Today I have returned to weigh me. And my weight takes my hair so much (I'm only 100 grams away from seeing a drop) that now I do not regret it until after this month.
Really, sometimes I think there's an evil little man laughing inside her ...

Sure, that was my original plan. BUT I took some of the awful sweet decadent dessert instead of sticking with the healthy nuts & cheese.oolala53 wrote:Couldn't you count the snacks at the meeting as your dinner that day?
My lack of enjoyment for that sweet should be a good lesson, hopefully well learned. Thanks for your compassion.

Great job, those of you who are on a "scale diet." I also see a few people having a good week. No reason May can't stay green, even if there were failures.

05/03 Dreary day wonderful bowl of stew for supper. I did not need the 2d roll.
05/04 Middle son's graduation party followed immediately by meeting means no time for dinner. Snacks at the meeting were irresistible.
05/10 Dessert at dinner meeting.
05/11 Ugh! Jelly beans were the gateway to permasnacking after dinner.
05/14 Mother's Day homemade ice cream just won't keep til Saturday.
05/15 Final serving of homemade ice cream.
Mended the fence!
Rest of the month was green except for NWS Memorial Day.
