I'm 5'2.5 " . For the first time in about 20 years, I am losing weight. What's my method? I am eating less. One meal, one snack at a time. I've given up thinking "one day at a time"; too discouraging: I never made it past Day Three. <br />1. If it's not good for me or if I know I can't leave it alone or I'll eat the whole package, I don't buy it. It's not in the house.<br />2. I eat less than I want. Sometimes I measure, sometimes I just don't have a second helping nor pile my plate full.<br />3. I thank God for every lighter weigh-in.<br />4. I try to walk daily. When I can't, I don't beat myself up.<br />5.

I started mine this week because I could feel myself wanting to eat uncontrollably again and have learned enough reading other people's blogs to know that therapy is a necessity in this journey. Finding positive, healthy ways to experience emotions instead of stuffing them down with Reese's is my goal.<br /><br />I know you can do this!

I too have been a "teeter totter" dieter, and I have even gone so far as to delete my blog once. But something pulled me back into it, and I am doing much better now. Don't say that you have failed, because this isn't a test. There's lots of oopportunity to get the weight off. Keep the faith...you can do it!E.

It starts with a first step.<br /><br />Accept where you are, stop the could have, would have, should have thinking and just move on from here.<br /><br />You can do it!Tami@NutmegNotebookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03734911958992997465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20595227.post-45806737398856925042010-10-13T12:49:17.654-05:002010-10-13T12:49:17.654-05:00Hi, I picked up your blog off of Dr. Fat to Fit an...Hi, I picked up your blog off of Dr. Fat to Fit and Just shake it off and take it off again.

I also sit at the screen and can't type sometimes, not wanting to once again write about my struggling. I wish I knew why sometimes I am motivated and sometimes not. But, like you, I am taking it one day at a time right now. And each day of clean eating builds momentum and is easier than the last and makes me feel better:) You are not alone.Karenhttp://www.waistingtimeblog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20595227.post-76961180188996342022010-10-13T11:37:59.143-05:002010-10-13T11:37:59.143-05:00You've got a good plan.

I got down to 201, but then got back up to 229 before finally, just a few days ago, giving up on the special food treats and giving myself back totally to a weight-loss plan. I'm back pretty much where I was a year ago. But I'm not terribly concerned, actually, with self-loathing, although it was getting to a point where if I kept going on that path I would be. I say congrats on finally writing the blog and fessing up. And good luck with the plan, sounds good.

I know I've suggested it before but I'm going to again, maybe give therapy a try. My original reason for going was that my mother had Cancer, my son was struggling and my 17 yr old cat was very ill. It was a lot of little things all on top of me and I felt overwhelmed. It sounds like you might be going through that now. <br /><br />As for exercise, maybe just get outside and take some walks. I know for me they are very theraupic plus the weather is just beautiful right now.<br /><br />Hugsbbubblybhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06423578980112090148noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20595227.post-60011053016168394072010-10-13T10:25:06.590-05:002010-10-13T10:25:06.590-05:00One day at a time is totally do-able!!
