[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 114993"] Way To Go everyone! [img]:bravo:[/img] I've been better - not perfect - at tracking on Spark. I missed yesterday and the day before and can't remember now what I ate. LOL It really helps me to see it there in black and white. Not just the calories, but the nutritional info: fat, protein, cholesterol. I really had no idea how much fat I was consuming. I'm also being good and logging [i]everything[/i] - even though when the numbers are already high, I think...oh, I don't need to log that oreo. [img]:rofl:[/img] I don't own a scale. When I was super thin before, I was on it everyday and a pound gained meant no eating. I don't want to end up there again. So, I'm gauging it by how I feel (you know, when you can't bend over in the car to grab something off the floor cause your belly is in the way [img]:faint:[/img] ) and by how my clothes feel. I've been having a lot, a lot, a lot of fatigue lately. I seem to be an all or nothing person, i.e, I can't clean anything unless I can clean the whole house. Well, when you're not feeling good then nothing gets done and it just gets worse and all of a sudden it looks like the house exploded on itself. Then it's overwhelming, as well as disgusting, and makes me feel worse. So, on the days the fatigue is really bad I'm doing little things...picking up, but no vacuuming, dusting, etc, as I can so it doesn't get overwhelming. I might only do one thing then rest and then do one thing else later. It feels good to keep on top of it. Plus, keeps me feeling productive and helps me from feeling sorry for myself. Today is a good day as far as fatigue, so I vacuumed, did litter boxes, am on the 4th load of laundry, emptied and re-loaded the dishwasher. It's amazing how good that makes me feel. Not just physically, but mentally, too. I'm soooo glad we have this forum. Thank you, thank you, thank you LDM and Cheryl!!! OK. Now I'm going to get all emotional. What is wrong with me?!!
