How about you?  

So close Gwen!

I'm struggling with some food choices in general. I need to try to not have certain things in the house. I know this but sometimes I still get them for "a treat". I need to stop that line of thinking! I've done really well with eliminating that the last year and a half but recently I've been getting lax in that. I haven't let up on my regular eating - which is good - but I need to be strict with everything and squeeze every last pound out of this that I can...

TW - 166

Dream Goal - 149 - JUST 'normal' BMI

I hear you about things in the house.  And I don't know about you, but since I live with other people it makes it even harder since I don't want them to not have access to the things they want.  Especially when, unlike me, they can do the moderation thing.  :/  

We had company over last night for carne asada (YUM) and this involved homemade salsas and guac which, of course, needed tortilla chips.  So now I've got this bag of tortilla chips on the counter and I hate that.  :P I think I'll ask Lance (the one who actually works in an office) if he will take them to work tomorrow.  Otherwise I'll just toss them.  Better to waste than to waist, right?

Luckily DH likes spicy things and I cannot deal with spicy so I don't run into that too much and we don't have kids lol! But we like guacamole and after we eat it (with red peppers and not chips thankfully) I tell him he either had to fini**** or throw it away or I will fini**** the next day. I can't deal with the temptation at all.

I definitely do the waste thing all the time - my theory is I eat so much less than before I'm already saving money so I don't care lol.

I came to realize I can't have certain things in my house because I keep eating it till it's gone. It's only me but think I can have a treat so I'll buy it but moderation goes out the door. No more.

Congrats on making you goal!!

Congratulations on Goal!!

I am in maintenance and it is still a struggle to figure out what to eat...just have not been happy with choices lately....boredom and laziness set in..... I can not touch snacks in the house for weeks... but then you have the one day or night and boom! That was last night for me... snick snacking. Have been trying to cut out protein shakes and bars... but that is challenging because ...they are convenient, easy, can take them on the go.

There is a medical reason - recovery from surgery and my protein on bloodwork has been low... so trying to see if changing the protein I am eating will make a difference. You would think 100g a day would be enough to not have low protein.... I guess not. If I try to add veggies or fruit I feel like I am overeating....

highest: 420+
