sure wish i knew how to get the food devil off my back..i think he has been here lone enough..

The food devil lives with me too! I know better...I'm just not doing better.

Today I started the morning with tea instead of a Coke. That's a huge step for me, and I had grapes for a morning snack instead of junk from the vending machine. I need to stick to this all day!

hi MJ

i'm trying to have all bran ceral with 1/2 banana for breakfast. 1 c. of whole milk..it seens to fill me up better.
my work out for this week is to move stuff around the house. most of it has to be moved to the basement. they are going to be putting in new windows. so i'm getting in alot of different kind of exercises. lol
i feel it...maybe we will get back on the right track.
maybe we should try kicking the food devil around some, maybe then he will give up on us and move on to someone else.

I overeat when I am stressed, and I have many extra helpings of stress right now! It's no excuse though, and something I have overcome to lose weight in the first place, so I am just really disgusted with myself right now for giving in.

hi MJ
girl don't beat yourself up to bad. this week has been crazy for me. and on top of that i gain. 3 pounds. i must have eaten more while moving stuff. without even thinking about it. but with your husband hollaring all the time it can drive a woman crazy. i'm just about ready to send him flying. lol
no special work outs this week. still trying to move things around...today i get a break i get to watch my grandbabies.
have a great day hugs gwen
