I know right? I did the math four times!

That last is PERFECTLY understood!
That’s the reason – no matter what anyone suggests to me – I refuse to eat pasta!

Asking purely out of curiosity…
The lunch. Did it make you feel funny at all?

Went to my neurologist this morning for my shaking. He ordered blood work, and two brain tests. Hopefully get to the bottom of this. Have an appt with my therapist this evening. It’s cooler out now that the thunderstorm has passed, so I think I’ll sit on the porch for awhile and unplug.
Breakfast: slice of wheat bread with slice of ch…[Read more]

Here are a few:
Going more than 2 weeks between visits with my trainer (I occasionally skip one week due to travel or her availability)
Taking vitamins (multi, B complex, iron, calcium)
Annual bariatric follow up visits
Pre-planning/logging my meals for the work week
Weighing in at least once a week and changing something if I’ve gained…[Read more] -

Has anyone had problems with their blood sugar suddenly dropping? If so, what did that feel like and what was the trigger?
I do get low blood sugar from time to time, but am experiencing much more sudden changes and with more intensity than ever before. Yesterday it happened after a 3 mile walk and a routine breakfast (both pretty normal e…[Read more]

Let the record show that Nikki got ALL her water in before 2:30 p.m.! (And I’m not done drinking today obviously)
I am using a super cool gadget that’s been motivating me. I think I’ll do a quick video to show it to you guys later today. Stay tuned!

Admittedly, the way I worded it may have been confusing…lol.
But yeah I’m more concerned with you originating your food at home (so buy it, bring it home, figure out how it all goes together in your day). And pulling back from foods you purchase “on the go.”
So I should probably reword that one. Working on it!

I’ve been thinking about this concept a lot. Non-negotiables.
I feel like when I see someone really successfully losing weight and maintaining their weight loss and living good habits in the long-term, it’s because they’ve made doing those things non-negotiables. They tend to say things like, “I don’t eat X” or “I have to go work out this…[Read more]

Monday! (Why do I sound so excited?)
Today I work and then (gasp!) I think I may have a free evening for once. I’d like to go to the lake and walk because I haven’t in a while.
Woke up this morning and took the dog for a walk. Got back, and filled my water cup for the first time (20 oz.), got that down, did breakfast (egg+ wheat toast) and then…[Read more]

@kathy-p pre-made salads are fine! Remember I said you don’t have to make stuff from scratch.
The point is to get you into planning mode. Quest bars are ok if you’ve ordered them and planned for them. Pre-made salads are ok, as long as you’ve accounted for them.
I don’t eat all food that I personally cook from scratch. But I do plan out what I…[Read more]

This was originally scheduled for tonight but I bumped it to next week as I discovered I need to order more vitamins!
I’d like to participate with everyone else so I am pushing this back.
Also this gives me a chance to say more about what this is, why we are doing it, and how often so that folks participate.

Question: Regardless of how much water you’ve been getting…is the pursuit of water starting to feel routine to you?
It is to me!

Had about 60 ounces today, last food over an hour ago, and unplugged for 1 1/2 hours today.

I’m super excited because @kathy-p and I are going to be workout buddies! Basically we’re going to agree to work out one day this week and check in with each other when we show up for the workout. This is going to be mutually beneficial because I have been inconsistent about activity at best, neglectful at worst! So looking forward to that. I also…[Read more]

Today was my grandson’s birthday party and I made it thru without eating anything not on my plan. I’m sure I probably haven’t met my nutrition goals for today but I’m okay with that. I made it through the day!
The rest of the week will be trying to get my house back to normal and catching up with the things I normally get done on the weekends and…[Read more]
