Weekend Chat (9/20 & 9/21)
I don't know about you guys, but the weekend is my greatest enemy. Thus why this weekend I am starting a Weekend Chat for those of us who want to help each other make it through. The Jewish holidays are at the end of the month and that is usually 1 big eating fest so I really want to make sure that this weekend and all next week I stick to my plan so that I don't just completely fall of the weekend.
I wrote down my weekend eating schedule, and gave myself a couple of extra calories (mostly for drinking). Hopefully I will follow it. Goal: NO BINGE!!!!! |
This weekend has already been a huge test and will probably continue to be through Sunday. Last night we went to a southern food buffet with another couple (would not have been my choice) and I was able to do alright stayed away from the dessert table. I left feeling full and guilt free!! Then tomorrow we have Homecoming at our church, which is like another southern food buffet. I am taking a salad so that I atleast know I can eat that!:crossed:

That's right- you're not going to binge this weekend!
I was just thinking about the Jewish holidays too- because my gym is Jewish! Argh, 3 days of no gym is not good. Had a good dinner out last night- sushi! I never overeat with sushi, so it's my "safe" diet meal. |
I'm starting this weekend out with a bang.
Coffee and a donut and a reese's cup:rolleyes:! I'm such a sucker for the seasonal reese cups (bats, pumpkins, eggs, etc.).Better make the rest of the day a lot better! |
Seasonal reeses cups? :yikes: Thank goodness I've never seen those...

Weekends normally not ok for me....
its a time im most likely to binge.... to eat today ive had a yoghurt.... a jacket potato with baked beans (smallest I could find n bout quater a tin of beans).... and two tiny slices of pizza (about 200 calories apparently) with a piece of bread.... im sticking to that for today.... 2mora we have a roast.... but i hardly eat anything else.... hopefully i will see bit more of a loss by Monday.... No bingeing girls, come on!.... |
I have a b-day party for my little cousins today who will be 5 & 6. I know it is going to be cake, candy, and goody filled. I will hear all day, "Aunt Heather, eat this. Have some of that. Try my cake. This is good candy... you used to eat this before!" *sigh*
lol, these little boys love me to death and know all of my OLD favorite foods. I plan on eating before I go and maybe doing a little sampling for courtesy's sake. But, definitely NO cake or candy.:nono: Those are huge trigger foods and if I don't stay away, there is no way I will control myself! lol |
i hate it in our house when birthdays are near....
we had one in july and two in august.... the next is in November.... i just try to have one small slice of cake and leave it at that.... definately a trigger for me too tho!.... this year for my birthday im going to insist on going out for a meal.... so i can eat my trusted fav baked tattie and beans.... n no cake!.... :) |

But today I also had one small gala apple, 1/2 c. non-fat yogurt and 1 tbs crushed walnuts with a 1/2 tsp. brown sugar on top for breakfast :) One of my favorites, keeps me full for awhile. |
So far so good for me on the weekend. Still following my food plan. A little nervous for tonite because we are going to a middle eastern byob place. Pita + hummus + rice + wine hmmm could be a downfall for me. I just need to stay strong. I love the feeling of losing weight and need to keep that going.
|
Sundays r nice ones for me....
yoghurt for brekkie.... workouts.... roast for lunch with no pudding.... crackers for tea.... hopefully no binge again today then i will have survived one whole week binge free.... :) |
This weekend has gone well for me, not a lot of exercise done, but eating got back on track so im ready to start the week with a fantastic monday :D Just have to decide what i want for lunch tomorrow....hmmm
|
It is now Sunday and I have not binged yet this weekend (woohoo happy dance!!!) Just have to make it through today. Once again I have my plan all written out. Lots of mini meals/snacks. I'm the type of person who just needs to always be eating so I try and schedule some type of snack food every hour. Seriously, I should try the cereal diet because that's my obsession. Then again, I have found "diets" to actually work long term so probably once I stop eating cereal I'd gain all the weight back.

Cookie - thanks for putting up a weekend chat! I was going to do it but my computer crashed! Great idea.
Well, yesterday was lost to the wind. The whole week in fact was bad. But today I am back on track and doing well......but it is only noon.... |
Okay, I ate the cake. I am not proud.:o
What was I going to do? "Here Aunt Heather. This one is Scooby Doo! I made it just for you. Look, it is even strawberry!" lol I just couldn't resist I ate a piece. 1 piece. Then later, I ate another for snack. I added it to my calorie list and still finished approx. 500 calories under my goal. I knew I could eat more of something but I just felt so bad for eating 2 pieces of cake, that I didn't eat anything else. I can't believe I gave in. I have been 3 weeks without eating 1 morsel that wasn't approved. *sigh* I guess it was bound to happen sometime. Right? :dizzy: I think I have ruined my week already.... lol |
