miafluker: You are definitely right. I believe the key to staying away from bingeing is not giving up after you've slipped up. A lot of people have the mentality that if you slip up just once, then you might as well scrap the entire day, when that isn't the case at all!
Losing4another: Good luck! Today is a new day. Don't let yesterdays ruin the todays in life.
ennay: I have the exact opposite problem! When I want to do something nice for a friend, and I ask for help, suddenly everyone disappears. It's like the freaking twighlight zone, or something! Forget about the others. They aren't focusing on the important thing, the fact that a friend is down and needs a pick me up. If they are so **** bent on being in on this, maybe suggest to them some things they could get her, and they could all go in on that. Then present both gifts from the entire group
If they still act like they are (which in my opinion is childish), then it's their loss. You are very kind for even taking that step in the first place to cheer your friend up!
Melissa: That's right, you're only a little south of us, so you're getting the arctic winds as well! For the last couple of days, it's been about -35C (-31F). BRRRRR! But we're used to it up here hah. We have only 2 seasons. Summer for 3 months, Winter for the other 9 :P
Nikaia: You're absolutely right. I'm already exercising at home every day, so the gym was like the extra bonus. But it's just too much! As long as I keep getting in my 60 min/day, I'll be good!
littlegg: I have a photo just like that, too! I was 16 :blush: With the photo you are trying to add, it might have something to do with the size. What are you using to save the photo, and does it give you an option at what quality it is saved when you are saving it on your computer after cropping?
Jasmine: I'm going to try and find a recipe for that bread, and bake some at home!
jcatron243: Good luck with the new job!
Ann: Great work on yesterday!

Yesterday was a great day, food-wise. However, today I am getting a bit annoyed with DF. Maybe I'm just crabby. It's not that he isn't supportive. Those of you from the previous TG challenge have heard the other side of the paper when I'm talking good about him
. It's just that the little things are getting to me. He cleaned his computer desk today. But only because he had to. He spilled a bunch of pop on his electronics, and even then he only cleaned the area where it spilled. Grr. Then yesterday he left the step ladder RIGHT IN FRONT of the fridge (the cupboard of junk food is right above the fridge). He's been doing things like that a lot. Leaving the step ladder out, leaving cupboard doors open when getting dishes, or things from the pantry. Leaving dishes on his desk, and the list goes on. It's starting to wear VERY thin. Anyway, the other day I tripped over the step ladder, so when he pulled it out today, I asked him to make sure it was put away when he was done, and he got all snotty in my face. Like, "Well, I hate having to take the step ladder out every time I want something from that cupboard. I'm just going to move it all back." ARG&^*W%E*&R%WE*&R%W$E%%&^%&^$^#%#@$#@&^
The whole freaking reason I moved that crap out of the pantry was because every time I saw it, I was triggered to binge.
Like, you are either with me or against me, ya know?
And I know tomorrow I won't feel this bad, I'm just crabby because he has been home from work 2 days in a row, and this is usually "me" time. This is when I exercise, tidy up the house, and watch my A&E shows. But instead I'm stuck watching him play video games and making a mess.
GO TO FREAKING WORK! YOU AREN'T REALLY SICK! TRY GOING TO BED EARLIER!
Sorry, soooo crabby today!
I think it is wonderful. I love the idea about the pictures, I'm going to dig some out. 
That's so great of you!
If I walk away from it for awhile, I handle it better.
Low calories seem to be the only thing that works for me. I was on a hospital supervised plan of 800 calories a day to lose weight before. I have been dieting for 21/2 weeks and haven't lost a pound at the 1200 calories. I'm trying to get an hour of exercise in a day now. Boy do I love my snacks.
