Trying Again....and again...

[DianaB]

We are having watermelon and cantaloupe from the garden and they are not on my diet but they are so good and healthy......but it's the carbs that I can't have. And ice cream!! It's been so hot so ice cream has sounded so good. Dae Lynn and I went to another town yesterday to buy something off of Craig's list (a little work shop table tor Dean.....Too cute!!) and they have a Dairy Queen so we stopped!! Yummm......they make the best ice cream!! It's a good thing that we don't have one here!!

I'm planning on getting more serious after Dae Lynn moves out!

[Janet]

Seems like I'm always hungry here lately. Don't know what's wrong but I start getting the shakes so I went to the kitchen, got my a deli turkey sandwich, a few cheeto puffs, glass of milk and pop tarts!!! What the heck is wrong with me... I know it's a phase and will go away, but hopefully I won't gain my weight back before it goes.

It sounds like your blood sugar is going too low. Do you have a monitor to check your sugars? Try eating more cheese and meat in between meals. They sustain your blood sugar better.

[Janet]

Just so happens I bought some cheese sticks for snack. I think part of it too is I wait till I'm hungry and by then I'm starved. I need to eat about the same time everyday and have a small snack in between.

[DianaB]

Yes, that's what you need to do. Small protein snacks inbetween meals and foods with fiber are good too.

I've lost another pound since Diana left. I just can't believe it because I ate like crazy while she was here. I've been going out walking a bit so that may have helped some, but I didn't walk that much.. Seems I'm losing some inches because my pants are a little more loose. I'm really hoping that by next spring there will be a very VERY noticeable difference in my size.

Good for you Janet!
