Just 4 Today:
- I’ll walk 3 for 15 — 3 walks of 15 minutes (I’ve already done one)
- Drink my fiber supplement twice (done once)
- NOT eat between meals
- NOT take seconds
That sense of renewed commitment? I’ve still got it. How about you?

Hi KB
J4T I will drink 2 liters of water and I’ve been running around the house getting it cleaned. My newest great niece will be by this afternoon, so I got to have a clean house.
Hope you continue to feel better KB and I hope everybodys day goes good.
Good to see you FamilyMan — I WAS doing very well, but I just broke down and had some Valentine candy that was left on my desk. Oh, well — maybe an extra 15 minute walk would help….
I HAVE REACHED MY GOAL WEIGHT TODAY
After almost a year of mind-bending, hellish hunger resistance, I have finally done it. Today I weighed in at 124 pounds, which caused my moving average weight to hit 125. I am a very small boned person so this weight is reasonable and healthy for me. It took me TWO weeks to shed the last pound, but I did it on principle, not because it would make me look any different. I did it to battle my inner demon: stress-induced binging. I have not had a stress-induced eating attack for months and months, which is a major accomplishment for me. It is thrilling to have accomplished this goal. I went and bought two jackets, two t-shirts, and one pair of insanely high heels for my reward.
JUST FOR TODAY (and hopefully for every day in the future), I will STILL COUNT calories, as I have promised myself I would do. The only difference is that today, I get to eat 1700 calories, the amount my body actually burns each day, instead of 1200. If I stick with 1700 per day, I will never get fat again, and never have to endure the torture of dieting again. And so that is what I plan to do. And ALSO, I plan never to eat due to stress rather than hunger. And ALSO, I plan to forgive myself on the rare times when that DOES happen. Because lets face it: not forgiving yourself for overeating just leads to more overeating.
You will still see me on this blog, because this is a lifetime commitment that I am making. Now that I’ve achieved my goal I am here to help others achieve theirs. Bombshell out. : )
Bombshell — WOW!
I’m so happy for you. I know what you mean about the principle of that last pound. It’s sort of like going through graduation.
I’m pretty much back on track after a pretty hellish time with that infection. (I’m about to make my daily posts)
But for now I just want to say, Congratulations.
It’s funny though that your next step is almost more scary (in my imagination at least) than what you’ve done so far. That goal of keeping it off — and all the associated goals that you mentioned in your post.
That’s really the point of this blog. Sharing that life-long journey….
