Hi Everyone. I am headed for panic mode. The days are whizzing by with so much to do. Unfortunately I am not alone. The Holidays truly throw many of us into panic mode. For some appetite increases with panic mode and for others it decreases. For those of us who find an increase in appetite we must be more vigilant. You might try meditation when stress seems overwhelming. You might try organizing tasks into manageable things to do. Try not to reach for something to eat when feeling stressed. If you must eat try something low cal and limit the quantity. Best of luck.
Well, it could be worse. I stayed the same. I did not weigh for several days and feared I had gained. What a relief when the scale again read 115.5. I will try my best to lose half a pound this week.
Agate, so sorry to miss you this week. I hope you are well.
Mamabug, hope everything is going well with you. Hope to see you next week.
Hsmaldo, I am concerned about because of not hearing from you for quite a while. Please let us know how you are doing. I hope we have not lost you.
Msgijo, that’s good you had a small loss. That is interesting that coffee causes you to retain fluid. I had not heard that. It is good to know that it is possible, even probable. I’m not surprised to hear you are eating for convenience. I am sure that is true for most of this at this time. Good luck.
Poohb3ar, sorry to miss you and hope all is well. Happy Holidays.
For those who may have an interest in joining our dedicated group, our members each have their own personal methods of weight loss. Some are on Weight Watchers, some on Atkins for example and some just cut calories. I personally lost quite a lot of weight in the beginning using Atkins and then just cut portions while eating everything. The method is not the most important thing, it is staying focused and following the plan.
We post weight loss, gain, stayed the same, from Thursday to Thursday and have been doing so for over 15 years. We are truly dedicated to get rid of those pesky pounds and keep them off. You don’t have to state your actual weight. It’s a matter of choice.
Tip For The Week:
Dr. Oz says, “For a thicker, creamier texture, choose low-fat, unsweetened Greek yogurt. Loaded with protein, calcium and natural probiotics, it makes for a tasty snack any time.” A further option is Greek yogurt no fat sweetened with Stevia which is no cal. I strongly recommend it also for topping for cereal especially cooked cereal instead of milk.
Weight Loss Results:
Total Loss:
1.2 Pounds by two members. Any loss this time of year is to be celebrated. I hope we can all stay in this column in the future.
Total Gain:
0 pounds. I hope people are not avoiding admitting the truth.
Stayed The Same:
0 members. As we know, staying the same truly is success, including for those who are maintaining. Just keep remembering it is the time before the next loss if you have more to lose. Also staying the same is a signal that you are eating the right amount to maintain your losses.
4046.91 is the total weight loss for the past 15+ years. We hit a new milestone. We now have lost over two tons for which we should be proud. That truly is phenomenal.

. I have started eating apple slices when I have to have a snack, but honestly I think that I did better eating nuts as a snack 
. 
. But give me broccoli or collard greens and I am happy
