How Long Can You Go???

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Maerow - I'm very sorry to hear about your loss. You and your family will be in my thoughts. Just take care of yourself right now and don't stress out too much about the eating. It'll fall into place again soon.

Good morning everyone!
TGIF!

Kat - TTFN means 'Ta Ta for now' It's a Tigger thing. That's something he always says. I collect Tiggers, by the way.

I'm still cheat free. I definitely think that I'll be busting myself down to Induction again. I have been way out of control on the nuts. So Induction will stop that. And I think that DH will benefit from me doing it with him.

Hope everyone has a terrific day!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Hello everyone! Look at that list! There are so many people cheat free for so long!!! The two month list is 9 people long! WAY TO GO EVERYONE!!!

Maerow, I'm so sorry for the loss of your grandmother. I hope that you are finding time to deal with the emotions despite all that dishwashing. Times of stress and loss are not good times to deal with special eating habits! I just went through one myself. GOOD for you for getting right back up and continuing on!

To Kisland, Kat, Jess, Jerrica, JCap, Saty, and Roxy...congrats on staying strong, and thanks for posting. Things are starting to slow down in here a little, and I think its because with Fall comes much more activity. Has anyone seen Christine? Think I'll go check her journal to see where she's lurking.

Still on track. Going to get our new pet today...a Basenji. I love Basenji dogs, and can't wait to get her home and see how she likes us.

Have a GREAT week everyone!!!

Hey Marion,

I'll join here, because I still come here everyday and report my cheat free status. I am cheat free 40 days. I removed my buttons to get the picture in... I am another, "all the way or nothing" person... Way to go for reestablishing the challenge for yourself, and getting back together after your husband's hospitalization. You keep pushing and pressing and get back to your cheat free zone, and move forward...that's true sucess....that's what we are all wanting to be able to accomplish should a time come and we for adverse reasons go into the "cheating zone"...I don't know what to call it. I don't want to go there, but I spend 6 hours unexpectedly at the hospital this week with my Mom, and I started thinking about any unexpected hospital situations, or longer term stay or even her death, and how would I cope and find my way thru such events, considering my relationship with food has always been rather, comfort-based, emotionally-based, entertainment-based...

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Checkkin in!

I remain cheat free............... even when back to work in the kitchen at the local elementary school. Actually, I think my resolve only got stronger being around the food all day. 5# whooshie this week is a big boost. I hadnt been weighing until recently and dont feel as if I was losing.... just maintaining. For some the scale takes over (as is has me in the past) For right now I think I need to get on that scale and "see" what is going on. At least for awhile.

I think it is wonderful to see all the time people are adding up to in cheat free days! Christine at 3 months!! So many 2 month blinkies!! Yay!!

Maribelle......... I see you have kept track of my days in your updates! I am bad. I cant seem to keep up with the blinkies and hadnt realized I had reached a whole month! You are awesome for what you are doing in this forum.

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Morning everyone! Sorry it's been a few days since I checked in...I've just been overwhelmed with getting around here and life in general!

Things are going well with me, still cheat free naturally! The hubbin' and I are going to breakfast at my parents this morning so we can visit and catch up. I'm taking cottage cheese and strawberries, and I'm sure that there'll be eggs or something there I can have. My mom asked me last night if I could have fresh blueberry muffins. The conversation went something like this:

Mom: So, you can have muffins, right? Because they've got blueberries in them and you can have berries!

Me: ...uhhh

Mom: Well I thought you were on the berry rung.

Me: Yeah, I am...but muffins are made with flour and sugar mom.

Mom: Oh. That's bad?

I love my mom, but I have a sneaking suspicion that she doesn't listen to a word I say.

Congratulations to all you 2 month mark people and well, to everyone in general!

Maerow, I'm very sorry to hear about your loss.

I hope everyone has a good weekend!

Maerow! I'm so sad to hear about your loss!! I pray for grace that you and your family will get through this traumatic time.

Good morning everyone!
TGIF!

Ah, the mystery solved. I'm excited to see how you and hubby do together. It is nice to have a support system/buddy at home.

Congratulations TERRY on your FIVE POUND whooshie! Yeah!! Nothing to brighten up your day like a poundage loss!!

Christine, I hope you have a nice day visiting your mom.

As for me, I'm hanging in there. I was telling Matt this morning that I really hadn't felt tempted in a while, but I know that it could all tumble down if I did take one bite of the old food thinking I was strong. The carb cravings would come back as a big monster and bite me in the butt!! So, I'm glad where I am, but know that it is still fragile and needs to be guarded and not taken for granted.

Here's wishing everyone a wonderful weekend and determination to make it to goal! We can do this!!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Being on guard, and diligent sounds like a very proactive, out ahead of the game plan Kat, and I suspect that is the key to your long string of cheat free success...what a good feeling you are having, enjoy the feeling and keep a watchful eye on the horizon...
