Bombing Badly
Ugh!! Been bombing so badly! Between the holidays and this crazy Missouri winter we are having here. My exercise and eating has been horrific. Need to get it together. New year New me!! Hopefully!!
Be easy on yourself...the holidays are a difficult time for many of us...so much temptation around!
And if it's any consolation for you, the weather in Virginia has been crazy too - soooo cold. Our snow is still here from three weeks ago!
Hang in there!

Minnesota weather has been about two days ahead of Michigan weather, so I know what you're talking about.
But the days are getting longer now, hopefully the "arctic blast" is coming to an end, and the holidays are behind us, so it should be easier to get back on track.
Don't dwell on past failures, just anticipate present and future success with enthusiasm and you'll do okay.

Had a rough couple of months myself.
Hang tough, start over.
I have a whole new mindset today - a lot has to do with being accountable on this board. I don't have enough weight to lose that others would say,
Finally you are doing something, so don't get much support from others.
Just take one meal at a time.
I am so into getting back into NO S that I am making today a three meal only day. I figured I had enough S days this past two months.

Keep it up. This is the hardest time of the year what with the cold and the short days. I always have a harder time in January. I can't wait for the weather to change.

It really is true. You can think of it as a muscle or an actual stimulus-response chemical reaction in the brain (there is evidence for this), but it has helped me several times to think that I just can't afford to keep up that cycle. If I "feed" the urge, I just make it more likely to do it the next time. If I don't, the urge will decrease, at least on average, as time goes on. At some point, the weather will not be a catalyst, unless your body really needs the calories. And, things change. I was in a terrible state about all this a year ago. Now it seems possible again. It often takes just a few good days.

Yeah such a relief. Some of the snow is finally melting we got drilled with about 11 + inches Christmas eve night. And about 9+ again a week or so later. Not alot in comparison I am sure. But it the first time since I was little that we have gotten that much. First time I can really say I am not enjoying Winter. Anyone know a place that stay relatively warm year round. Has a low crime rate and low cost of living wehre i can move too.lol!!
Well, I was going to say San Diego, where I live, until you said the part about the low cost of living. Housing is high, and wages aren't, but the temp rarely goes below 40 here. Growing days: 365 a year. Crime depends on the neighborhood, no matter what you hear. It can spoil ya. But you might miss the seasons...
