It’s Got to STOP NOW!!!

The mindless overeating is what I’m referring to in this title.  I did not go to a WW weigh in last week.  It was party because I didn’t want to face what the scale would read and partly because I was just plain busy with other things.  Had to finish Christmas shopping for the family celebration we had oN Friday nightt, get house put back together after Christmas Day, and plan for a bday party for ds1 on Saturday.  It’s been crazy here all week long.  My parents came to town on Friday, and brought so much junk food with them…pumpkin pie, pecan pie, cookies, fritos, soda, cashews, dove chocolates, m&ms.  And my mom is recently diagnosed diabetic and isn’t supposed to be eating much of any of that in the first place!  I’m disappointed in myself for having such poor self control.  My inlaws came in on Sat. and they brough quite a bit also, candied peanuts, fudge, homemade caramels, cookies, home made chex mix.  Oh, and BIL brought cheesecake over today and I had a piece of that too.  I ate so much this weekend, and I really feel slightly sick to my stomach.  I was totally off plan.  Have not journaled anything since Thursday.  I plan to get back on the program tomorrow.  I’ve already started to do some stuff to aid in this.  I went through the fridge, and pantry and either threw away or place in sack for dh to take to work, all the goodies that were left.  I told dh it was just sitting there tempting me all day long and he asked if I was really that weak?  To which I replied “YES!”  I told him I don’t care what he does with it all…..keep it in his car, take it to work and share with coworkers, or just throw it out!  I don’t want it in the house anymore!  I dread having to get back on the scale.  The WW center is open tomorrow for a few hours but I don’t want to get on the scale.  I know I’ve been bad and am not going to like it.   I might just wait until Thursday because the kids will be back in school, and I won’t have to leave 2 ds home alone with dd.  I’m going to really get back on the food program.  I need to journal, exercise and really watch what I eat.  Even though tomorrow is New Years Eve, there will be no goodies for me.  Luckily we are not going anywhere so I will have complete control of what I have available to eat. 

It just dawned on me that I will not be making my goal to lose 4 lbs by the new year, seeing as Tueday is the new year.  Can’t say I’m too surprised, I’ve been setting weight loss goals for years only to fail.  I probably gained 4 lbs over the weekend!  Tomorrow is another day though.  And Tueday is another year.  I need to refocus and get things under control!  I want to come up with some goals for the year 2008 also.

    Well, I guess it’s good to see that I am not alone. My eating has gone to hell these past few days too. And tonight will be no better, but like you I’ll start the new year on a better note.

    I loved this : “I told dh it was just sitting there tempting me all day long and he asked if I was really that weak?” My DH would probably say the same thing - it’s so weird how some people can resist that stuff when it’s in the house, and others can’t. I’m like you - get rid of it. I try to send it off w my DH but if that doesn’t work the trash can does the job too.
