Ahem, well that was kind of a screwy day.
General August 8th, 2008hi kids,after an excellent weigh in and self control throughout most of the day, i just BLEW it this evening and I’m reconciling with it. i think i ate about 500 calories over my normal 1300 limit. so nothing AWFUL but certainly nothing that can continue, so BACK ON FULL TRACK TOMORROW. i certainly dont want to ruin the successes that I’ve been having and want to continue to have. SO food today, including the nitty gritty foods I shouldnt have eaten:
breakfast:1 tofu dog (45) + ketchup (15), kombucha (35), yogurt (65), 1 tbpsp flax (30), 1/2 banana (55), 1/4 cup of cereal (35), ½ cup of berries? (30)-total: 310
lunch: tortillas (120), cheese (80), pepperoni (40), salsa (10) -250, plum (30), and carrots and snap peas (35)-total: 315
snack: 4 hershey kisses (100)
Where the problems start:Dinner: tofu (55), brown rice (65), edamame (60), mac and cheese (150), pizza (250), frozen yogurt (115)- 695
Snack at home after (THIS REALLY KILLED IT!) Brown rice and some dumplings-300
total 1720, but im gonna call that 1800, AHHH help!?
Today was a no gym day, since I had dinner plans right after work. I’m sure you can tell from my awful eating. It’s really hard for me to understand why some days I have SUCH excellent control and on other days (ugh especially a day where I reached a 40 lb loss) I just have TRULY no self control. it’s really disconcerting to me, and very frightening, just because I find it is SO easy to lose self control sometimes. ugh. very bad. I hope/plan/will get back on track tomorrow and stay on track so hopefully i can have a great weigh in next week as well!someone give me some tips on how to not cave into eating whims!!!!!! HELP! get me back on track before i get off!thanks chickies! friday! woohoo!

Hello,
Do not come down too hard on yourself. Your diet is very healthy for the most part. May I ask what is Kumbucha (did I spell that right?) You will get back on track today. You are only human, put it behind you and you will do GREAT!
Have a wonderful day.

Hey there! By crackies I come on here and read you’ve hit an amazing milestone! 40 lbs is a lot of damned weight and I’m so proud of your great accomplishment. That took a lot of sweat, tears and discipline, girly! {{{travelgal}}} Big hugs for you!!!
Looks like you had a tiny little bit of a celebration party! Realistically looking at 1700+ calories, depending on your weight, that’s roughly what your body burns up at rest just to function and run all of your organs and so on! basic metabolic rate!
See? You’re not screwed at all! 40 pounds kiddo! WOW That’s awesome!

I don’t think you did all that bad, but I know that “out of control” feeling when you are eating stuff that you feel like you really shouldn’t be eating. When things feel a little dicey for me it always helps to have a written plan, and commit to not deviating from it. Maybe you can plan out next week so you can feel like you’re solidly in the groove?

Not bad at all. Take today’s “bad” and mentally compare it to one of your “bads” in, say, December of last year. See any difference?
