For this weekend I did better with drinking water.
Today: I have successfully gone from breakfast to lunch without thinking about a snack, let alone having one. Did not buy anything extra from the cafeteria and was satisfied with the healthy lunch I brought from home.

Well, I feel like this post is going to be good for me. You see, Past 2 weeks has plagued my family with sickness. I was very sick myself last week. Therefore, I have not stuck with this at all...yeah, I still log food and walk 15-30 minutes but the desire to keep going strong was gone. I haven't seen any positive results and have not dared step on the scale! So, this week we are all feeling better and I still had no desire to get back with vigorous exercise. Then I stumbled on this thread! So, mine for today is that I am going to continue with my weight loss journey and log everything today and exercise for the full 150 minutes this week! Yea!

I was going to pig out on sweets because it's Fat Tuesday, but I changed my mind. Going to stay on track today.

I work at a bank and I'm helping put together some goodies for a meet and greet tonight at a home owner's assoc. meeting. I was icing some mini cupcakes and I was doing SO well! But, I snuck in some icing on a strawberry (Betty Crocker Whipped Vanilla Frosting)... OMG SO GOOD. I shared the idea with a few ladies at my office. Total hit.
I was disappointed with myself for giving in. But then I realized, this is a lifestyle I'm on... not a fad diet. I can't go around feeling like everything is off limits. I'll totally screw up. SOOO... I logged it. Two tablespoons of vanilla frosting and some fruit (guessing at quantity so I logged more than I think I ate). I'm still within my calories. Empty calories, yes. But not overboard where I am going to give up and throw in the towel. This is a new way of thinking for me. I'm happy about this way of thinking. It feels like "skinny people thinking." LOL

I JUST heard some customer at the bank say "Fat Tuesday" as I read it on your post. LOL I've never heard that term before and just now I heard it AND read it at the same time. Weird. : )

This is a great idea.
I have been on MFP for 46 days and in that time: No soda-regular or diet I have been under my calorie goal every day I have become more fit and can now swim for an hour. When I started I could only make it up and back once huffing and puffing I FEEL BETTER!
