I did much better yesterday! I documented what I ate throughout the day. I had to estimate my exercise calories for swimming and forgot my heart rate monitor for the body circuit class. I estimated my calories for swimming and I usually underestimate. At the end of the day....I was truly still hungry and needed something that would stick. So officially or unofficially I went over my estimated calorie target but I am totally OK with that since I knew I was truly hungry BUT did not over eat. ...

Yesterday was a great day until I got home. I cannot quite figure out why I lost control of my eating after I got home. I am a little stressed about money but luckily I got a bonus check at work that will help out....so all is good now.

I got home an had a pumplin muffie from Panera Bread that my husband bought for me the other night and then I had some chocolate that we had around for a long time that was not tempting me....for weeks. Then we went to Panera for dinner and I had 1.5 mo...

Had another great day yesterday! Another green check and the scale was nice again this morning 223. My holiday gain is almost gone.....just one more pound.

Started the morning off with a great workout...circuit training. I think today is going to be another great day.

I love this feeling of control and not feeling like I am being denied anything. I want this feeling to last forever!

Good day yesterday and this morning is great so far...

Yesterday was a great day. Got green check for my eating and exercise. I felt so good yesterday.

I spend the day being OK with feeling hungry and trying to identify if I was really hungry. There were donuts in the kitchen at work yesterday and I only had a small piece of one and realized it was not worth the calories.

A difficult time for me is when I get home and transition to cooking dinner, helping with homework and driving kids around. While I am making dinner I usually wan...
