I went to a wedding last weekend and did really well (by my standards)-- 1600 calories one day, 1700 the others and no eating in the middle of the night. The BF and I came back yesterday, though, and in the middle of the night I woke up and ate 500 calories worth of SF ice cream bars! I feel horrible about myself... brought me to 2050 calories for the day.
I am glad to see all of you here. We can do this together. I have five days, working on day 6.
Today I decided I would try calorie cycling again. I was looking over my food journals from this time last year and I had periods when I was able to go 30 days binge free when zig zagging. I think the higher calorie days give me the freedom to "treat" myself a little more so I feel less deprived and binge less. Let's hope so, anyway. Oh, and I lost 10 pounds during one of those 30-day binge-free times. That would be nice.
WOW just the thing I needed! Did u read my mind? I had a horrible go last week at things I keep away from
The only thing that can inspire me to lose weight and not die of Asthma attacks is this site
I had a horrible weekend.Wow.The board is full and its only Monday!I am in.I am losing 12 lbs by June 1...which means NO bingeing>And I leave for Vegas Wed for 5 days.So this will be a major challenge for me.
I'm jumping in too! I'm doing good so far...and binging is my worst habit!!! No Costco bulk trips for me - outta sight - outta mind.
Worst is, I have quit drinking any kind of diet or regular pop. It's been a few weeks now and there is a pop machine right outside of my desk - I hear the little clinks of money and the drop of it and I am like - ahhhhh! My cravings have been so minimal except for Coke Zero! And I can't drink it because it leads to other things that I associate it with like movie popcorn and chips. So I eliminated it altogether!
Cheers to everyone for no BINGING!!!! Oh and I hope I can sleep soon, I am so wound up!
well i had a repeat of easter this weekend.. made strawberry pretzel salad and DH actually came up behind me and said 'you realize you are eating out of the refrigerator right?'
