Happy Birthday to me.

This upswing is not because I stuffed my face over the weekend. It is because I haven't been accountable to my goals since Thanksgiving (shame on me)

I log, I do well, I don't log, I see a number on the scale that I haven't seen since Sept 12 2016. Whoa!!!!

Today is a new day, a gift.

Anyone remember the cartoon from 20+ years ago with the image of the frog stuck in the crane's mouth titled "Never Give up"? Well, I am the frog and I will not quit.

I will apply the K.I.S.S principle to my journey and utilize OMAD again.

Approximately, 6 weeks ago, I was eating One Meal A Day averaging around 1600 - 1800 calories and the scale moved in the right direction. It was easy (K.I.S.S) and silly me, I should have stuck to it. I had plenty energy and I am guessing I didn't keep it up because I didn't prepare my meals in advanced or I let life get in my way or a combination of both. Not sure, but logging and journaling could helped me identify trends and I could make corrections sooner vs waiting a whole month.

I am here and I will be OK.

I've missed my FS family and I can be better than this.

Onward!

BTW, the personal messages and texts... THANK YOU!

Thanks everyone. I am having a great day and I ate what I brought in to the office vs buying the wrong things outside.

Happy birthday, Ches. In another program that helps guide me I'm reminded that when I'm not following closely and using the tools, even then I can be of service by being a bad example. 🤣🤣🤣 I take heart and know that the tools are always there ready to pick up and move forward. Thank you for your posts. They are valuable inspiration for me and others. I internally reject the thought of having to keep records forever but notice, in my other program the elders of 20 - 30 years success are still coming to meetings, helping others, and

Happy Birthday, Chess. I had one too! Missed you! I let the BD set me on a spiral, and now I must correct that. We'll fight together.

If we all did the right thing all the time we would not need this site or the people on it. Since we DON'T always do the right thing, well, it's good to see you back!
