Fantastic job so far!!! Try to sit down just before you eat...and enter and track, or in the AM plan out your meals and snacks... so you know BEFORE you consume them, what your working with. That helped me alot. Just a thought... 

Just a suggestion... do not "find the time" or do not "try to make the time" but MAKE the time to do this. The only way to do it is to just jump in and do it. Like Yoda says "do or do not... there is no try" 

You can do it and I know you WILL find the time for yourself. Remember, YOU ARE WORTH IT!!! Hope you had a great day.:) 

Hi Pixidaisy, like Yoda said Do I will Do! Thanks for visiting and helping. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. 

I really hope you don't take offence to that I just find that if I keep saying I will try to find the time. it progresses into more procrastination, if i say I will do it... than I normally do it lol  

Thanks Paula, I wish I was a planner. The problem is that I have not been home and can't enter food and then I hate having to remember what I ate and enter it. When I am home it's pretty easy to enter food. I really need to go back to induction and stay with my limited options, that seems to works better for me. The weight loss is so slow now but you stated that one pound/week is good. Maybe I just need to be patient. Thanks so much for coming by this way. It means a lot to me. 

Hi Laurie, thanks so much for the reminder. I need to do this. I really want it bad. Thanks for coming by this way, you are a good friend. Have a wonderful weekend. 

oh no not at all! I think it is so nice of you to come by and try and help me. I appreciate it. 

Do you have a smartphone? Download the FatSecret Calorie Counter app & you'll have no more excuses. Pix was right on with the not trying. Don't try. DO. I stopped trying just over 9 months & 60 lbs ago & instead made a decision I was going to DO this no matter what, & I firmly believe that is why I am where I am today. Congrats on your progress so far, let's keep that momentum going!!
