9. One piece of advice I'd give to myself a year ago today: concentrate on Protein and produce, you can give up the sugary stuff! It's doable!

From your lips to Gods ears. I have a terrible sweet tooth that didn’t go away. Lately I’ve indulged too much in sweets.

So what is everyone snacking on instead of junk?

Today I had sliced apples dipped in PB2 powder. 😋😋😋

Do you add something to the powder so it’s not “powder” you’re dipping in to?

I don’t but I hear you can. I just dip it right in the powder and the moisture from the apple makes just the right amount stick.

14) Cooking. I love it! I still cook for my whole family and I’m not having a difficult time fixing things that meets all of our needs. I’m just not baking like I used to. I can pass store bought Cookies, etc but home made is a WHOLE other battle I’m not willing to face quite yet, if ever

I just read this article and also posted it in our 50+ thread but posting here as well since our challenge involves snacking. It has some of the most forthright, common sense approach I’ve ever read about late night snacking.

Is it too late to jump in on the challenge? I’m really struggling with sweets and weight has stalled I’m sure as a result.

Jump in! Go hard ! 👑

Baaahaha haha but an evil death stare is very useful to have in your arsenal as well. Like, when a dude tries to cut in line in front of you at border control at the airport. Dude had a serious rethink coming.

13. One skill or hobby you want to take up. I have three and I can't choose between them. When I get down a bit more, Imma reactivate my scuba license; take up horseriding with my daughter and start doing zumba/aerobics

Tell me about it. chocolate is my kryptonite. Luckily (or unluckily) these days it makes me dump if I have more than a little bit and the sugar free stuff makes me spend the night on the porcelain throne. I paid good money for precisely that!

14. I'm told I'm good at listening.

And on that coderedlifestyle article. Nice information but I don't even get home until about 6:30. Not a doable thing for me.

[GreenTealael 25,358]

B-Sides questions:

What are you still having a hard time with post surgery that you believed would go away?

I chuckled a bit at 6:30 being “late night “ as well. I just thought it hammered home some great insights I needed to hear . When something gets too science based in its explanation a part of me switches off.

Alright I’m jumping into the challenge!!
154 day 1 challenge for me. Goal weight is 135. Goal for this challenge is 10 pounds.

DAY 14: One thing people tell me I'm good at: Remaining calm under pressure. Fake it till you make it! Right!

B-side question: What are you having a hard time with post surgery? Looking ahead 3-5 years from now. Will I still be in this happy "honeymoon" phase. Can I stay vigilant and keep the weight off? The closer I get to goal the more I'm starting to stress.
