Trying Again....and again...

[Janet]

That is what 'MyFitnessPal.com does. I really like using it and it definitely has helped me.

[Janet]

I haven't been watching my food intake as well as I should be. I'm up a couple pounds, but with this heat affecting my mood, Rick being a liar and trying to get the rental house in good order, I just didn't watch like I should have. At least I didn't gain a bunch...just a couple lbs. but I feel bigger.

Now that the rental is rented again and some other things have been taken care of I hope that I can get myself back on track.

I've gained several pounds and I can feel it. I'm trying to get more serious about my diet. I really don't want to go back on the diabetes medicine and I was really feeling so much better so I need to get on the ball!!!

[Janet]

I had a great day of eating well and healthy. Some of the things that were holding me back and making me stress...I've let go. I'm back to concentrating on my eating habits and know I'll do fine.

[Janet]

I've done real well the last few days so I think I'm back on track now. I was a little worried I wouldn't be able to go back to recording everything, but so far I'm doing good. Now if it would just cool off so I could get some walking in.

[DianaB]

I'm doing better now too. It helps that I can swim and exercise that way!! Keep up the good work, Janet!!

[Janet]

Spoke too soon....lolol...still trying to get back on track. Dieting totally sucks!

[Janet]

I must be doing something right....lol. This morning at the bank someone asked me if I'd lost some weight....yay!!! It's starting to show. Now that is a booster of self esteem!!!

[DianaB]

Yay!! It really does help when people start noticing!! Good job, Janet!!

[Blueyes]

Y'all are inspiring! I've eaten everything in sight for about the last month. Yesterday I started watching it again, and it's SO HARD!! I crave sugar like an addict craves crack

[Janet]

Same here Betsi!! Not sure why, but it seems lately I'm hungry all the time. I especially want something with chocolate.

I will say a prayer for all you ladies on diets. I am trying to loose 6 pounds. Yes Janet I know I am not fat but my clothes donot fit anymore. I have picked up some weight. Getting old really is starting to SUCK. lol So good luck to all of us.
And the sugar is the hardest thing to give up. I like my pop. I only have one a day, but need to cut back to maybe everyother day. It does not help when people (my husband) goes to the store when you are out and buys you more.
LOL Okay enough said.

[Janet]

I never have pop, but I do love the sugar...my downfall right now is Cookies and Creme Pop Tarts. Ricky likes them for breakfast on his way to work so they are in the house. They are my chocolate fix for sure.

[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.
