I had a fairly good week I able to increase the number of planks
I can do.
Aug 6 was the first time I did one and the trainer wanted me to do three and be able to count to ten before I rested. It was a struggle but I did get three done. Today Aug 18 I was able to do 4 and hold the position until the count of 20!!
This has been a hard month so far I have either stayed the same weight or lost the same pound more than once!
I have had eat the house attack several days. They are now over thankfully thanks to the support of my Spark family.
I took time to go back and read past blogs dealing with my eating the house attacks. Read the encouraging notes from my spark family
I printed several to post around my kitchen.
Found times that the attacks were the worst. So now I have a plan in place.
1.The attacks were the worst after I came home from the gym I had been eating my snack then going to the gym.
New plan go to the gym and then eats my snack
Tuesday seemed to be a hard day I had been going to a Hospice support group meeting but the group took this month off and I decided since it had been two since mom passed away I should be able to not need to go any more
Plan go to the gym at the time the meeting was held so I am busy doing something
The wanting to eat at night is on I am working on then remember how nice the arm foam pad and mouse pillow looked when I was not eating at the computer.
The rule is back in place including no eating while reading at the computer as well as posting notes the computer area is a no eating zone. Thanks again teammates. For your support like the saying goes there is no I in Team. I have learned its not easy to do this as I thought but I am not giving up this time like I have in the past.

for helping me over my rocks in the past and again this time going for streak of no mindless eating. decided if i can do planks i can beat mindless eating attacks one day at a time like several team mates told and i forget.
