I'm realizing how much of MY journey might need to be education. I'm finding that I have a ton of questions! Maybe things I never bothered to learn, things I'm finding come up that I need to address, etc.
How many calories should I really aim to eat? What would be good protein for the mornings, esp. if I don't want eggs? What snacks are healthy but convenient enough to stash in my purse? Do I really need to watch when I eat fruit (I heard it's best to eat on an empty stomach in the AM, which I'm not really doing)? Should I really log my exercise and adjust what I eat if I expend a lot more than normal one day? Is there a diet solution to PMS bloat? LOL.
I guess I need to spend more time searching certain things instead of mindlessly going about certain parts of this journey. I'm sure it'd do me good to get the answers vs winging things. Winging it + my diet isn't exactly a combo that has worked for me in the past (clearly!).
I also made a point today to write down some personal stuff. Someones comment in another journal entry reminded me that part of this journey has to be emotional/spiritual/other. I didn't let myself get this heavy just because I like sweets. Making the conscious decision to change makes me feel like ... I have a lot of excuses. The stress in my life, the things that upset me, etc. do not make me fat. (Or, at least, they should not.) So I'll probably keep that out of FatSecret, but it felt really good to write things down.
I'm also dragging my heels on the initial measurements, pictures, etc. Yikes! I need to, I would like that. Maybe I'll re-read this in the AM and find my motivation to just get it over with.

There's a bit of a learning curve w/ this site, finding your own 'new' way of eating, what goals you will set, how you will achieve them, and YES, dealing w/ some of the old mindsets and issues of the past, in order to move into the future w/ the true motivation to really CHANGE. But your journal, ... your attitude... is definitely on its way to CHANGE! Educate yourself a little bit everyday, and never stop! You won't regret the time investment, and it will be one of the keys to you OWNING your FUTURE! Now where's that measuring tape?

Journaling has been really helpful here for me. People read what I write and encourage me. I read theirs and do the same. It also helps me to know when I am eating emotionally or maybe even what caused it. It is like a cathartic in many caases.
Welcome to Fatsecret. Its a great place to be and has been so helpful in this weight loss journey. Soemtimes, its only the people here that keep me on track to continue my weight loss plan. Blessings to you!

I've always thought that losing weight and keeping it off was all about mind set. Journaling is one of the best tools out there for discovering why we eat. Once you find out what triggers an emotional eat, you're better prepared for the next time it happens. It is a process and you seem to have a good attitude. I took measurements and pictures when I started but I keep it private. It is just who I am. If it makes you feel uncomfortable to post them, then don't. But I recommend doing it so you can actually see how much you've changed. Keep up the good work.
