Teancum Posted September 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2018 So today didn't go great. And it wasn't just the birthday dinner. I got snacky when I got home from work and ate a whole chocolate bar and some chips. I don't know what the deal was. I think my brain counted the day as a write off for some reason. Ugh.

Teancum Posted September 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 I keep feeling so snacky the last couple days. I had more sugar today, but I stayed within my calories more or less.

Teancum Posted September 25, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2018 I was still snacky today, but calories turned out ok. The strong desire to eat (it's not even hunger, it's weird) is annoying, but that's life I guess. On the plus side, I weighed today and only gained 0.6 lbs, managing to stay under 280, so that was a pleasant surprise. Week 2 - Monday Goals - Did I do it?

Teancum Posted September 27, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2018 Teancum just doesn't do it. I'm officially taking week two off. Getting messed up by working a day and a night and a day in a row, also having birthday things, and traveling the rest of the week, I am setting myself up for failure, which in my current mindset would set me back more than a one week break I think. So this week is a write off, but I'll be back and ready to go in week three!! 1 Quote "You can have what you want, or you can have something better" Character Page Current Challenge Spoiler Previous challenges: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 PACT challenges: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 To set an example for my patients and my family.

My birthday is shortly followed by Thanksgiving (Canadian), and then Halloween starts happening. So there ends up being lots of food and candy and baking around. Add to that the coldness and darkness starting up, and I seem to start going into "fatten up for hibernation" mode. I'm still not quite sure how to fight it though. I think I really need to get my wife on board somehow, but that's proved difficult.
