Journaling.....

[Guest guest]

* Journaling every day even if you have a lost day. One lost

day

doesn't kill you and when you journal you are reminded that all

foods have a price. Kind of keeps you from straying too far.

My DIL is on CORE and really

likes it

because she can snack any time she wants and doesn't have to

count

points. She feels great because she's eating so healthy and

she's

losing weight like crazy... Might be a good option for you if

journalling is a deal breaker (me I'd druther journal so I can

eat

anything but if you DO journal you have to do it every day no

matter

what).

Sue's post was great.......she mentioned journaling twice and it reminded me of

something I read on Doti's site the other day in the quotes section.......

Your body keeps an accurate journal regardless of what you write down...

So true.........I did not keep a journal for years......unfortunately my body

kept a very accurate account of EVERYTHING!!!!! I am doing WW on my own

now.....counting POINTS and armed with the huge amount of info and support on

line, some old WW books on points, and an occassional TOPS meeting for

accountability because it includes the inevitable visit to the scale....duly

noted and recorded. This week the scale made a drop into....what is it that

some WW sites call it??? Onederland?? Into the 100's. 199.25.......but

hey.......it is officially in the hundreds right....and down 20 lbs from a

couple months ago. I am mainly concentrating on the victories that are not

related to the scale.....the way my clothes feel, the great feeling of being in

control of my eating........and I know that if I just follow the program, the

weight will come off.
