Excellent Dari...Ive cut out most bad things for me.I gave up coffee and most caffine about a month or so ago...Now my goal is to be aspetain free.So I need to go out and replace and fake sugar with Splenda - as Splenda is made from real sugar so it is better for you...Once I cut out my fake sugar and replace it then I will have succeeded.

You know that once you get there it is worth it - you have been doing this for a long time...stay strong and you can totally do it!!!

Good day so far today! Within my calories, no pop, and while I haven't done any exercise, I have been on my feet for most of the day.

Woohoo! My mom had dinner for the whole family, and my grandma brought homemade apple pie with some ice cream. I had a small serving, and I do believe I'm still within my calories!!

Way to go with the small portion,"having your pie and eating it to lol"Tammy

Good job with the small piece of pie...something a having little is harder than having none. Man, it must have been a great treat. Nothing beats Grandma-made apple pies!

So this has been one of those weeks that makes me think about moving. This morning is the 3rd in a row... -31, feels like -51 with wind chill. It's really depressing. We even skipped skating lessons and Sparks last night for DD because I didn't want to keep dragging the kids in and out of the car (the wind is horrible).

Wow that sucks...we have been at -6 and that is cold for us and Ive been whinning like crazy and always bundled up - i wear a hoody and a puffer jacket and gloves and scarfs and so the list goes on...It finally snowed here at least so it has warmed up a bit...

DQ even here in Indiana, it's been negative wind chill factors as of late. We have had the weirdest weather. Just 2 days ago it was in the 40's!

Down 1.5 lbs at TOPS last night Hoping to keep the momentum going. Have been drinking more water this week too.

That's awesome DQ!

Congratulations!!

Is it warming up at all? My family back in Edmonton were saying that they were having -25 with a wind chill of -55 as well. I heard that there might be a warm front coming through this weekend. They are supposed to hit a "balmy" -12. *LOL* I had the chance to move to either Winnipeg or Vancouver...this is why I chose Vancouver!! For just once in my life I wanted to be warm!!

Well, the weather network says the temp. is -20, but they don't always put the windchill factor in. My thermometer outside usually is closer to what it really feels like outside, and it says -35.

Brrr! Keep warm!

Hey DQ! Long time no chat. Hope you are doing well friend!

Well, if it isn't Miss JB! Nice to see you!


Here's a 'chicken and the egg' question... have I been slacking in the WLF area because I've been ashamed of the lack of exercise and food tracking? Or has my lack of posting caused my slide into laziness and binge eating?

Still not doing bad, really, I've gained about 4 lbs since Christmas. I've started a new challenge with friends, so I'm aiming to lose this 4 lbs over the next 2 weeks or so. Winner of the challenge get scrapbook goodies sent to them by the others.
