that much walking in. I wish you had more support but I am so glad that you are not letting the lack hold you back. I am sure that spot will heal in it's own time.

Just want to remind you of that "stinking thinking" about starting to track later because you want to have a bagel first. Nope. You are allowed to have a bagel. If you can't normally eat a whole one anyway get it and cut it in half, perfect! Save half or more for later or give it to Bill and track it. It is perfectly fine. I had a doctor's appointment and had to fast until after. We stopped at IHOP and I got breakfast that was 890 calories. At first I almost didn't get it but it was what I wanted and I knew that I couldn't eat all of it. Sure enough I did eat less than half of it and that was a perfect number for my first meal of two today to come in between 1200 and 1500 calories. I walked away satisfied because I had what I wanted and even leaving over half I was stuffed. I walked out and left it there so I won't be going back for more today. I don't know about you but I am tired of all or nothing thinking. I am setting boundaries that are doable and setting out to find how to live my life with those boundaries, not how to give up and do without or give in and feel guilty. I have been on a "diet" long enough to know how to allocate calories without starving, eating diet foods or eating to someone elses plan.
