Weighing In - Week Twelve

For “Weighing In”, you should post the following things: (1) your weight loss, maintenance or GAIN (yes, own up to it if it's true) for the past week (2) your personal goal for the rest of the week (try to restrict it to one) and (3) your anticipated non-food reward for achieving that goal. Since it seems we are all choosing to weigh-in on Tuesdays, I will try to create a post for every new week the day before we weigh-in (Mondayish). This would be a good post to add encouraging words for other individuals as well.

Tips and Tricks - Week Twelve

Tip: Halloween may be approaching and, being the super-prepared person you are, you may have already purchased candy for the kids or are thinking about purchasing it. DON'T!!! Don't buy candy until the last possible minute! The moment you let it in the house it becomes fair game. Don't justify it by saying that you're saving time or money or something.... you will probably eat it and then just buy more. Don't buy the candy yet!!!
Trick: If Halloween candy is unavoidable, then don't buy candy that you like. Buy candy that you hate. True, the kids might hate it, too, but better them than you, right? Maybe that's why some people still continute to hand out those horrendous orange and black mystery candies.... to save themselves the calories.....?

Gripes - Week Twelve

Go right ahead and gripe! We all have the option to read them or not depending on how we feel. If gripes don't fill you with negative energy, sometimes it's nice to know how much the people around you are suffering, too. Yeah, it sounds bad, but you know it's true...... ;)
