So it can wait for the moment... (I love this icon soo much hahaha)

I get sweet tooths a lot. Especially since I can't have anything with sugar on Atkins. We make induction-friendly doughnuts though with a chocolate glaze (using SF vanilla DaVinci syrup, cocoa, butter, splenda) and they are so yum. But not so calorie friendy for maybe your type of diet. Back to the point... what I try to tell myself and think you should do the same...

Everything you are craving (chocolate bars) you've had before. So even though it might taste good, is it really worth it? It's nothing THAT new and exciting, and you can have your chocolate in small doses. Maybe 3 or 4 kisses a day or something if you're a big chocoaholic.

As for me, I just got back from my lunch hour. Went to the post office to mail off some packages and then stopped by Big Lots. I love Big Lots LOL. Wish we had CostCo's in Wisconsin since they are starting to get MAC...ugh! NO fair! They already have Halloween (my FAVE!!!!!!!!) items out! But yeah, I saw Atkins bars when I was looking around. They didn't have the shakes though...bummer... and I can't have the bars yet and wouldn't anyways. So here I sit eating my 1 string cheese to tide me over for the rest of the day. Shame on me, I know. LOL.

....AND FOR A LIL BIT OF MOTIVATION FOR HEALTHY SNACKING FOR YOU ALL...

Staring at that image somehow makes me visualize a work out class dressed in banana suits LOL I should go into marketing ahah

At least, that's what I hope. My eating has been pretty decent, staying in my WW points but I do need to focus more on eating more fruits and veggies. I know when I did that before, my weight loss progressed too. Can't wait to get my life back in order! This moving is killing me!!

That is so great!!
I have always been told by my dietician that loosing the consistent smaller numbers is better because you are actually loosing fat versus just water weight. Which comes right back after you drink a few glasses! Not sure how true it is but I know when I loose a lot at once I have always gained it back..My mom was doing WW and lost about 2 lbs a week and has kept it off for over 3 years and she is really not that strict since she lost the 50 lbs she wanted to several years ago.
I think you are doing well!!

My diet has Sucked too!! I didn't eat breakfast or lunch but I had cheez-its and a coke just because it was at my desk...I am so mad at myself that I haven't eaten anything since...Starvation won't work but I am so mad I have no appetite!

 

[Willa]

MAC at Costco???
Wow... since when?

There's a lot of these stores here, I guess I should go back to check out, I just ended my stock of energy drinks (0 cal).

Do they sell cheaper (MAC)?

Thanks for the tip Brittni

As I am not on any diet, and because I want to eat better, a donut would not be a good idea, but I get your point. Mints are really my best friend right now. If I REALLY wanted to eat something sweet, I'd eat a bowl of coconut and banana yogourt

Tomorrow will be a difficult day for me, we're going for a little trip to my uncle's cabin. My mother, her sisters, are big eaters... So you can all guess that Miss Willa will be tempted to try stuff here and there... So tonight it's going to be ''Find good stuff'' planning.

(I think I talk too much... o_0 )

 

[Brittni]

MAC at Cost Co since recently, I guess! About 30% off of retail? Or 20%... There is a thread around here somewhere, LOL. But yeah, def. check it out if you get a chance!

Hahaha my "doughnuts" aren't doughnuts at all, just called that... all mind tricks I suppose. I HATE real doughnuts, they are SOOO overly sweet, ew.

Mmm... my favorite sweet treat used to be Honey Bunches of Oats cereal with COLD (i love putting 'em in the fridge) banana slices on Silk Vanilla Soy Milk!!!

Seriously, you just named Mr. Rbella's dream meal. He loves Cheeze-its with Coke. He likes to call them "Tidbits" b/c he always forgets their name.

How's everyone doing?

 

[purrtykitty]

Good job, Feenin! A loss is a loss. Me, I'm not doing so well. I fell off the horse. I was doing so well, and then everything just fell apart. It just seems that if it's not one thing, it's another. I cannot get my appetite under control. I want to eat everything in sight - not good at all. I won't be able to work out tomorrow because I'm getting my hairs did, and I hate getting all sweaty but not washing the grime out. Grrr...I feel like a big, fat slob.

We went to the restaurant, I had some pastas and I think my body didnt want it. It was homemade tortellinis with fresh carbonara sauce, bacon in it, cream and other greasy stuf.

I feel like I want to p*ke (sorry)

But I'm going to take some Perrier water to help my digestion.

 

[glam8babe]

[rbella]

It is the weekend ladies!! This doesn't mean that it is an excuse to eat!!!! Remember how you feel when you try on an outfit that doesn't fit? How bout when you get winded going up a flight of stairs? How about when you are standing next to a size 0 beyotch who proclaims "I'm so faaaatttt!!" while you are standing there wishing your arm was as small as her thigh?

It is not worth it!! Don't do it!!

 

[glam8babe]

oh i hate it wen really skinny girls complain they are 'fat'
my old best friend was like a size 0 - she ate like a fat man!
and one time she complained her 'toes were fat' and her legs... her legs are the size of my arms!

Ho yeah tell me about that...
I HATE trying on clothes
It seems anyway that my body isnt made to be fat because I don't even fit well in plus size clothes. My size is usually 18, it depends on the where it comes from.

Jeans are the worst.
But anyway, thanks for reminding that rbella

This is so what I needed to hear right now.

XOXOXO

 

[rbella]

You are all welcome. I am just so sick and tired of how I feel physically, how I feel about myself when I go shopping, worrying about what I "think" others are "thinking" about me when they are around me, not feeling like part of the "cool" chicks b/c I can't dress the way I want. Not to mention the fact that I have a closet full of beautiful clothes that I couldn't get my ankle into if I tried.

I WILL NOT FAIL AT THIS AND NEITHER WILL YOU GUYS!!!!!!!!!!

 

[SkylarV217]

I had bad food last night... I didn't feel like cooking so we walked to the restaurant to pick it up ...=) .... I made myself eat breakfast this morning , did well at lunch and treated myself with iced coffee . we baked fish and shrimp for dinner .... Pretty good day =) 10 mins of exercise =) Is everyone doing well with exercise ?

 

[SkylarV217]

NEW TIRCK - When you get out of the shower in the morning... Stand in front of the mirror so you see your body.... WOW that was some motivation this morning ...=/

 

[rbella]

^^^No, I can't exercise b/c I can barely stand up straight. I'm really dizzy. When my eardrum heals I will try to start.

 

[darkwater_soul]

I know you guys have already gotten started and such... can I still join in?
