    To think about for today... We might have already done this one before, but it is still a struggle for me... What's your favorite healthy breakfast? Does it keep you satisfied until lunch? **** I am behind on the replies and the chart. Sorry for the delay. :) I was down a pound last week. So...

    I do have foods I have to give up. I know it is counter to some of the latest trends--count everything and there is not bad food....but I can't handle the bad carbs. And the more I eat the more I eat. If they are in the house I have to either throw them out or eat it all. Is it an addiction--who...

    To think about for today... It's Friday! :) What did you do 'right' this week? And I know everybody has at least one thing (even me). And what do you need to work on for next week?

    Let me sum up my week...Monday worried about job interview on Tuesday. Tuesday job interview and came home to a sick foster puppy. (It was not pretty). Wednesday freak out session because I might actually get this job. Today...back to reality and a little calmer. I have a follow up interview on...

    To think about for today... Do you have foods that you just have to give up or you can't have in the house? I keep hearing Oprah say--I am losing weight and I eat bread everyday--so do you think realistically that every food fits into a healthy diet/ weight loss plan? ***** Welcome tntfamily78...

    :) Awesome! One is better than none. :) Keep moving forward. I hear you on the boredom of the elliptical. Can you do 'sprints' on the elliptical to vary things up? My husband does hiit on the elliptical--he will do 5 minutes fast then get off and do a strength exercise, rinse and repeat...

    Just saw this! I will edit you next time. :) I had trouble with getting moving this week too. Between the puppy and the weather it was a hibernating kind of week.

    What does Oprah say--you can eat bread and lose weight....just not very much bread. ;) It really is all about portion/calorie control. I think the point was to show us that the typical portion we see today is MUCH larger than in the past. For instance, McDonald's is not that excited about you...

    Thanks for sharing! I agree. If it were not for this group and another group I participate in, I would have completely quit. I know I am not having much success, but I am still here. Being 'brutally honest' with myself I am making some really bad choices, including choosing to fail, but by...

    I absolutely think that when my house is a mess and I am disorganized that I eat more and less healthy. I think it's more that when my life is cluttered, my brain feels cluttered, which leads to stress and bad choices. Great job in January! I hope it is a successful February! Glad that knee is...

    To think about for today....Portion distortion Do you know your portions? Take this quick quiz and see if you know how many calories are in typical foods we eat today. Did you learn anything? http://www.medicinenet.com/food_portion_distortion_quiz/quiz.htm

    Good morning. :) It looks like it has been a quiet week here. I got a reminder today via fb that at one point I was healthy and fit. My profile picture here popped up as a memory on fb. That run happened 4 years ago today. It feels like a lifetime ago. So here's to getting on the wagon once...
