I am really glad for us to have this forum, it is really helping my motivation more than any thing else. I think I feel a closer bond with this group than my WW, or any other group I have tried.
Thank You for starting this. I hate to miss one day of even reading the forum. If I don't have anything I post I do try to read, but some days like yesterday I just flat did not have a chance to.
Dee, thanks for your input on the journalling. I am trying much harder to keep mine this week, that is my main goal. I am also doing more preplanning that way I can have no excuse to just say oh well, I didn't plan this but I will eat it anyway. Nice to know about the Chili's food, glad I don't eat there but maybe once a year! I do go to a local Mexican restaurant alot though, maybe once a week. I have to order fajitas or salad all the time. I try to eat only their grilled foods, but I can't stop myself from the chips, guacamole, and refried beans. I can skip the rice and even the corn or flour tortillas, but....I am sure the rest is enough to pile up my points.
I planned my day out for today and already have it written down, then tonight I will enter it into my Flex calculator. I am doing a written journal and using that calculator. I have done this now for three days and it has really helped me keep in line.
Thanks again for this forum. I love it!
