Day 3 Posted by MaryL on 9/20/2018, 11:57 am This is the day I usually go off plan in some way. I have made up my mind I need to fight this thing that puts me in sabotage mode. Yesterday evening I was so hungry at work, I made myself a Cambridge Original Dutch Chocolate Shake and instead of 3 a day I had 3 original and 1 FFL soup. I didn't drink enough water yesterday. It will be hard to get through this day. I know I am fully capable of doing it so here goes. Everyone have a good day.

Re: Check in - Craving Posted by Maryl on 9/20/2018, 6:54 pm, in reply to "Day 3" I am having a problem with needing to eat something crunchy. I am not that hungry. Tomorrow I think I will make the chips from FFL Soup that are listed up to the top in the recipe section. That will take care of the craving if I can wait for tomorrow to make them. Everyone have a good evening.

Crunchy-- Posted by Yvonne on 9/21/2018, 8:32 am, in reply to "Re: Check in - Craving" How about a pickle?

Re: Correction Posted by MaryL on 9/20/2018, 2:32 pm, in reply to "Day 3" I had FFL Super Oats, FFL Potato Soup and 2 original shakes yesterday. The extra shake instead of having something off plan really helped and it may be the thing to help others if they want to try it. It is a reminder to stay on track even with the extra shake.

Here's a suggestion Posted by Pam T on 9/20/2018, 1:57 pm, in reply to "Day 3" Go to the gym and find a big punching bag. Put a sign on it that says "Day 3" and beat the stuffing out of it! You've got this MaryL. Every hour that passes, give yourself a pat on the back and tell yourself that you are powering through this like a locomotive! No Day 3 is going to derail you!

Re: power of visualization Posted by MaryL on 9/20/2018, 2:20 pm, in reply to "Here's a suggestion" I bought this sweater and saved the photo. The model, though very thin gives an image I can use for visualization. It's something to work for.
