cef daily check

Counting carbs/calories is a drag. Obsessive scale stepping is a recipe for despair. If you want to count something, "days on habit" is a much better metric. Checking off days on a calendar would do just fine, but if you do it here you get accountability and support. Here's how. Start a new topic in this forum called (say) "Your Name Daily Check In." Then every N day post a "reply" to that topic as to whether you stayed on habit. A simple "<font color="green">SUCCESS</font>" or "<font color="red">FAILURE</font>" (or your preferred euphemism if that's too harsh) is sufficient, but obviously you're welcome to write more if you want. On S-days just register that you're taking an S-day. You don't have to do this forever, just until you're confident you've built the habit. Feel free to check in weekly or monthly or sporadically instead of daily. Feel free also to track other habits besides No-s (I'm keeping this forum under No-s because that's what the vast majority are using it for). See also my <a href="/habitcal/">HabitCal</a> tool for another more formal (and perhaps complementary) way to track habits.

Looks like you are doing well. I reallly can't weigh each day because it affects my mental state too much. But I think you and and I are following a pretty similar pattern (even though I don't have as low a goal weight as you). I weighed in today at 168. Now this is an S day so I am sure if I weighed it tomorrow I would not like what I see, but I only weigh once a month. A month ago I weighed in at 170.

I really would prefer to use stones or kilos since that lower number sounds so much better than our pounds. When I taught overseas one semester the scales we used were marked in kilos and I felt as if I were writing a secret code when I entered my weight in my journal!

Hang in there. This is slow, but so rewarding for your mental health I think.
