Re-set my ticker - 3 Fat Chicks on a Diet Weight Loss Community

Rosinante · 12-25-2010, 04:10 AM

I don't think it can be 'just a water bounce' any more, I think I must be mis-calculating somewhere. So I've re-set my ticker back to 162, it'll remind me to concentrate!

Got a hideous sugar hangover this morning. So today's lesson learned: a calorie is no longer just a calorie any more!

Merry Christmas! - it's never a fun present to yourself resetting the ticker but it's always best in the long run to be honest with yourself so maybe it actually is a good present.

I hear you on the sugar - I had hot chocolate and some cookies yesterday after we went caroling. When I got home I wasn't hungry but my body felt like it wanted something healthy to eat. I felt kinda queasy all night (but maybe that was the rather daunting pile of packages to wrap....)

Today it won't be cookies that tempt me, it'll be the high fat yummies....

Good luck in figuring out what's going on.

Hi Rosinante! Merry Christmas

It's OK you have done an amazing job with your weight loss!!
I have that same sugar hangover this morning. To be honest eating the sweet stuff yesterday was not as great as I had built it up in my mind that it would be. It tasted good but it made me feel funny all at once. My husband told me it is the sugar rush- I'm not use to it. And my stomach rolled around all night and feels a little icky this morning. I have a feeling I will not be eating as much as I had originally thought. I think that is for the best. I just can't tolerate this rich food anymore.
Don't worry about your ticker it will continue to make it's decline

I wish there was a daily weigh in challenge for January- those daily weigh in threads really motivate me to work harder. It has that accountability factor.

If someone had told me about "sugar hangovers" years ago I would have laughed silly at them... but now! I SO know what you're talking about..... throbbing headache, queasy feeling, etc.

Guess its a good thing though, right?

Yea, I never believed in them until last night/this morning! I felt So Ill in the night, I was almost scared, then I worked out what it was. Lesson learned!
