Power was off since 5p.m. yesterday. So my choice of salad n tuna worked well.

I'm having trouble drinking enough water, anyone else having this issue?

Me - our water has been off since yesterday :D

But usually I have a big 1.5l bottle with water and try and drink that by about 11 or 12 and then another one by the time I go to sleep. It helps to set a bit of a goal. Also try drink a glass or two as soon as you wake up. I've also kept a bit of a diary before where I marked how much water I'm drinking.

What you eat is always a choice - unless you're eating only potatoes due money restrictions :D [I've been there]

But I am not here to judge I guess ^_^

Just do the best you all can

Since I no longer have a car I'm dependent on lifts from other people to go buy food. Unfortunately walking distance from me is the butchery and the chinese shop......Besides the fact that I'm a poor student. I don't even have potatoes :erm:
Its not always a choice.

Lifts are not your restriction - these can be planned strategically - money should be your only restriction -
And there are healthy choices within almost any price range -

Be careful your protecting peoples choices doesn't become an enabler - "Oh he couldn't HELP eating that chocolate" all you do is give people allowance to slip back into bad habits

I was really depressed yesterday about the insulin resistance thing. Fortunately I'm blessed with a sunny disposition so I'm over it now and looking forward to some weight loss this week :)
