Hello Everyone - Happy First Day of Summer DotRen - I'm glad you finally had some rain. sunrose - I'm glad you checked in. I'm doing pretty well today. Went grocery shopping and managed not to buy any junk. I did buy a small single size bag of M&Ms, since I haven't had any candy for 3 weeks. I'm going to see how long I can let them sit on the counter without eating them - yes, I'm strange I did write into my Food Plan (from the Never Binge Again book process) that I could have candy 2-3 times, or less, a month. This is the first I've had this month, so I'm happy that I've resisted buying it. Hope everyone else is doing well on their plans.

Good afternoon
cj59, WTG with no candy for 3 weeks. Let us know how long the M&M's last on the counter. That would be a hard one for me.
DotRen, great on the rain!! I saw that Texas was getting lots of bad weather. What movie were you going to see?
Waving to all
The scale was down almost 2 pounds this morning. So happy to see that. Now to keep it going until Sunday when I go to my WW meeting.

Hello Everyone sunrose - Congratulations on the weight loss, I'm sure that felt good! DotRen - Hope you enjoy the movie. I'm doing pretty well today, but feeling a bit resentful that I can't eat what I really want to eat. I went to Olive Garden for lunch with friends and did eat a good meal and it fit into my day, but I didn't really get what I would have liked to eat and I definitely didn't get to eat any of the great desserts I watched the others eat. Unfortunately if I really had to choose between keeping my weight off and enjoying eating what I want, I'd choose the eating Being this weight is just not enough motivation for me to stay strong and on track, so I constantly have to work at it. I think if I was younger then it would be more of a motivation. But at least I haven't given in to those feelings and hopefully I can keep resisting. And I have to remember my health is much better. Have a great weekend!

Good morning
DotRen, I'm not sure I've seen any of the Jurassic movies after the first one. I saw yesterday it is 25 years since Jurassic Park came out--wow!
cj59, It is a struggle with food. I'm proud of you for not caving to the dessert though.
Waving to all. I hope to keep food under control today for my WW WI tomorrow. As of now I would have a small loss there. I need to keep what I really want in mind...that is to be in a size 10 again.

Hello Everyone - Hope you are all doing well and enjoying the weekend.
I have a big salad made up for lunch today, which I'll add in some grilled chicken. I also bought some rhubarb at the store this week and cooked some of that today. Part of it I added in strawberries and cinnamon and then I add some equal and eat it like applesauce. I'm also going to try some plain rhubarb sauce in my yogurt today and see how that goes.
I had never eating rhubarb until last Summer and I really liked it, especially with the strawberries. So I froze some of what I bought and will probably get more at the store and freeze more.

Just checking in for the day. Hope everyone is doing well I'm still staying on track and hoping to stay that way. One more week and I'll have a month with no bingeing. I'd just like to keep this up as long as I can, since I don't even enjoy it when I'm doing it. It's such a weird thing that you can do that to yourself. The M&Ms are still unopened since I haven't been able to fit them into my day yet

Good morning! I don't know why, but when my husband is home for a 3 day weekend, it throws me completely off track on food and anything else I'd planned to do! He is a crane operator at a big chemical plant here, and he's supposed to work 4/10's (M-Thrs, 10 hours a day) and be off F-S-S, but it hardly ever works out that way. When the plant has a job/project going on, they need cranes most of the time. So anyway, back to getting back on track today. I did not meal prep for the week yesterday(see above lol), so later, after I get back from the grocery store, I'm going to make these spinach and cheese chicken enchiladas for lunches, modifying 2% cheese, siggis' yogurt, etc to make it more WW friendly, with some cilantro lime cauliflower rice as a side dish.

Ok scratch the enchilada recipe, it was awful. I rarely throw a dish out in its entirety, but that one was in the garbage this morning. Awful! I don't know if it was the modifications I made or the recipe itself, or even something as simple as the brands I used (goya chilis, hatch enchilada sauce, or the yogurt I made).

Good morning DotRen, I saw Star Wars when I was about 23. lol cj59, WTG with the M&Ms still not open! I am behind on posts and just quickly glanced. I really need to check in here daily. I went to my WW meeting Sunday and lost 3.6! Was happy with that, but I am still way up. Was going to grill chicken last night for dinner, but a mouse was in the grill. My son ordered pizza and I had two slices Waving to all

Good afternoon
cj59, you may feel off with the binge, but to me you sound pretty in control. Half a bag of m&ms is a win!!
dotren, how are you doing?
Waving to all. Need to get outside while the rain has stopped. I'll be back tomorrow.
