As one said .. it's all a matter of making positive steps, be they big or small. As I remember from my days of being in-patient .. any progress is progress.
Today .. I actually had *lunch*, which is a first for me (granted, not a substantial one .. canned tuna on a piece of ezekial bread) .. had a postworkout snack of some cottage cheese and chopped veggies, then I'll be da*ned if I didn't cave and succomb to the peanut butter jar as a means of "dinner" .. I was hopeful that eating breakfast, a light lunch and a post-workout snack would've gotten me in the right "mindframe" to keep going with healthier eating ... crashed and burned
So .. tommorrow is another day to hopefully get it right .. and one of our beloved JP members is now working with me on a *proper* meal plan and training plan. I'm hoping that by investing money in having someone devise an appropriate meal plan for me will help me to actually have a greater drive to follow through and stick to it!

Tuna and exekial bread is a nice lunch! And the snack was great as well. Bravo!!!
It really helps me to have a plan for the day, and I do that at least all weekdays. I'm looser on the weekend. Good luck, it sounds like you are in action!
