Just lost my second attempt at posting, here, to the great void of cyberspace.
Obviously I am out of mental bandwidth for the afternoon. A nap is in order...followed by an abundance of coffee...Before another attempt.
😴💤💤💤

Since I am short (4'8") and have been overweight practically since I was born, I struggle to lose weight. Even on P+ I lose a pound one week and then gain it back the next and then maybe lose 0.8 and then gain 0.4 back. Up and down. But mostly more down than up lately. I rarely eat my weeklies except for special occasions or when I am frustrated, etc. When I do use my weeklies I try to only use 10 to 15 of them.

Ok...Good morning, all! Am armed with coffee, and trying again. How do you keep track of your GHG’s? (app? paper? other?)Inconsistently, I’m afraid...App or paper, I start out in the morning OK, But just forget to check off the boxes as the day progresses. Working on putting together a dry erase chart of daily reminders That I can just post next to the fridge in the kitchen.
How do you fit the GHG’s into your day? Most of them fit in pretty well. I do try to pre-plan, but sometimes those plans fly right out the window. So I need more consistent follow-through. I also need more veggies. Shamefacedly mumbles, “I mean ’salads’.”
What is the one GHG you’re going to work on this week? And how are you going to do it? I’m working on whole grains this week. Partly to keep the carbmonster from trying to drive the bus! QUESTION: There’s no there’s no Whole Grains quantity listed, portion-wise, in the GHGs. So I’m hoping for some enlightenment there. Comments/ input/ nudges in the right direction...are welcome!
Breakfast: Oatmeal with unsweetened almond milk, half a banana, 1T. Great Stuff PPB, and 1 tsp olive oil. (I’d credit the poster that I borrowed that idea from, but can’t find the post. Whoever you are, thank you!) oh. Yes. And an abundance of coffee.
Recipes: Haven’t tried the muffins yet, or the cauliflower poppers, but I have all the ingredients. Hoping to get cooking this afternoon!

Great report: a little less than a week on PP and I am down 2.9 at my “official” WI! I weigh daily but only Friday morning counts as official. I started PP tracking on Sunday. While I realize this is water weight, it does give me a psychological boost to keep on keeping on.

Now THIS is a great idea! I think I will use a paper sheet inside a plastic sleeve to use with dry erase! Thanks so much!

> I think I will use a paper sheet inside a plastic sleeve to use with dry erase! Thanks so much! reneinitaly, Your take on it Is exactly what I use. My reminders are usually a work in progress, and subject to change... so a sheet of paper inserted into one of those plastic sheet protectors works quite nicely. The heavy duty sheet protectors work best, FWIW. So glad you like the idea! Enjoy!
