Hello MOMPOIRIER Nice to meet you

I decided I was going to quit Keto WOE, and go back to low fat and counting calories, so Yesterday I went shopping, and bought fruit and vegies , instant oatmeal , and yogurt no sugar lowfat yatta yatta yatta,, and I ate a cheeseburger, with bun , at lunch, then for dinner I had the instant oatmeal, a kiwi, and yogurt. then when I couldn't sleep last night (from the sugar, in the bun and kiwi) I ended up binging on my husbands potato bread and butter. 4 pieces of bread and a lot of butter. I believe it was the sugar in the food I ate during the day that caused such a bad binge plus the not being able to sleep.

this morning Sick Sick Sick ,, bad bout of stomach issues, one being on the toilet half the morning. SO ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I believe my body is telling me NO you cant do low fat ,, and carbs , you just cant. can't can't ,,,, So I have to revamp my whole thought process and come up with some non boring foods I can cook in the mornings for the rest of the day. im so sick of meat and one veg, or being restricted to only certain vegies, but my body just rejects high carb sugary foods, yeah I know the bun and the 4 slices of bread didn't help my situation any but,


I guess I just need to find some motivation to get going today,,, its just not been a good morning ..

hope everyone else is doing okay.

&

I am new here to this team. I have been with Sparks a long time. I am 64 and a binge eater looking for support in living a healthier life.

sorry haven't been active., Still feeling the effects of Covid and my last post , I waited till DH was outside and I came into the office to get on SP , luckily we both have our own pc's so i didn't touch anything that he might Although I'm pretty sure he was exposed to it before i tested positive . Im still feeling sick from it , Sinus congestion , headache, achy all over, coughing, weak feeling, , but according to the health department i can go back out into the public and back to work today . I wonder if anyone really knows for sure how long you are contagious. I work in a nursing home , im a nurse, i sure don't want to give this crap to anyone else .

Thanksgiving was just me and DH, I cooked a 15 lb turkey , and made mashed potatoes for him and green beans, and Asparagus, Nothing fancy just us,

Hope everyone else is doing ok, and had a wonderful Thanksgiving

I was diagnosed with Covid19,on Monday 11/16/20 Been really sick , lung congestion, coughing , draining sinus's , sore throat, nausea vomiting, generally sick all over, muscle aches. Just when I think I'm getting better I have a set back like this mornings bought of nausea and vomiting. All this on top of the sciatica, I cant get comfortable , pain constantly running down the right leg. and now the SI joint injection has been moved back to December 7. I'm on quarantine at home with my husband. who took a covid test on Tuesday but haven't gotten the results back. Just when I think things are looking up this happens and I cant do anything but stay in the spare bedroom and look at the tv or play on my phone

Sunday , work has been crazy crazy,,, the pts are getting tired of being locked in. they are declining rapidly because they cant touch their families and only get to see them through a glass window. or on an ipad. . I makes me mad that the admins and corporate people think its ok to keep families out but my co workers come and go and most of them will tell you they only wear masks at work. Just makes me mad what do they think they are accomplishing , every time we test one of my coworkers test positive for covid.

Any way , my weight loss journey is slowly starting to take off. I found that I cant get off keto without gaining the weight back to I am sticking to it and finding new foods to cook. and because of that I am starting to love it again. I fell off the wagon so to speak hard after my back surgery in 2019 and gained 40 of the 60 pounds I lost back. so now I have to lose that all over again and then 50 to 70 pounds more. but I'm committed to to it. Have to do some meal planning and meal prep today for the week ahead.

its storming horribly here. My sciatica has returned with a vengeance and I cant see the pain clinic to get another SI injection until 11/30 so I have to endure the pain till them. I found that yoga, is helping some. and like before the heating pads and my whirlpool tube also help.

sorry for the long rant Have a nice day everyone.

Hello Simply Jane nice to meet you

Hello!

Hi and welcome...glad you joined us..I have made some changes to my diet as well..no wheat, sugar, or gluten...I feel better emotionally..not lost any (more) weight. so I may have to look at what further I can do..

Just want to say hello to the team and get to know every one , I'm 57yr old , nurse , wife to a retired marine . usually plant a garden , was following KETO but I miss my vegies and fruits. so I am trying to transition to eating only whole foods, No processed anything , the challenge is my husband who is diabetic brings in candy bars, pastries, cakes, cookies, any junk food that catches his eye. he is a big bread eater and I have a weakness for bread. I need all the help I can get. I am hoping to make a lot of friends in here and get the encouragement and motivation I need to lose the weight and be healthy

HELLO! so far a week of doing well!

Good morning!!!

my mindless eating has been out of control. jsut eating to much jusnk and when not hungry, its not sad eating, but unfocused, from mental boredom. i think i may have to work on some breathing exercises to wake myself up and regain focus. i though og a new goal to try for a week - no chocolate before lunch. it may seem silly but i think if i can limit the idea of am treat it should help with the rest of the day

Hello guys how are you doing?
I am doing alright. Can't wait for the group to start.
Will they post it in our chat or on our email?????
Hope you are all well. Have a great day. Holly

Everyone ~ I hope everyone is doing ok...


to a New Month & Welcome to New Members & Returning Members

.

Hope all are doing well. These times are a bit more challenging that our customary and usual, aren't they?

But each day is a new day.

Popping in to say hi. I'm beginning anew today. Yesterday I was mindful of every bit of unhealthful food I was overeating and emotionally bingeing on. sigh. Well, Day 1 again. Restart.

Hope all are having a good day!

been mindlessly over eating a lot. i am tracking it and not binging. i am struggling to keep smaller portions. dh an d i are making a point of keeping our suppers planned so we can use stuff in the freezer. plus i want to prepare healthy snacks so i get in my nutrients particularly fiber and protein.

struggling to reset to my new work space. after a week, i found a way to get in more activity. mindless eating is still bad. my appetite is off.
