Hi,
I'm here again for another challenge.
Last week started well but ended badly...
Hope that this week I will do better .
Day 1 is almost finished...and it went well
Best wishes to everyone
Day 17 for me. Wardhog, keep strong. Its great to see you doing so well.
I didn't binge yesterday after all the exercise, but truthfully, I was too tired to be any good for anything but vegging. Obviously not in very good shape if that bagged me so much. Got the norditrac out and set up. Am off to do it with my wii fit in a few minutes.
Day 18 now. Was on plan today with good food and healthy snacks. Supper in the oven. Hope to get thru the next few days ok. Bad weather, we are hunkering down and hibernating I hope for a few days.
oh chickies, I may be gone for a day or two. And will be fighting the binges all the way. My dad suffered a mild heart attack and I will be going to my parents for a day or so, to deal with the docs and my mum.
I want to stuff myself right now, so have put in 30 min on the wii fit, and will go to bed to not eat. Will take knitting with me.
Will try to eat healthy.
Why is it I want to binge on artery clogging stuff just after my dad had a heart attack!!! ack.
ttfn
I will draw my strength from the supports I have built.
thanks
Ok.........this will be day one for me. I do so incredibly well on my diet, then after supper I blow it all! Im sick of it, so very sick of this vicious cycle. I can do it! Today is the day to make the after supper change!!!
Well, I caught myself about to binge. I stayed at my parents place for the first time in years, (my mother is a heavy smoker and I can't stay in the house for more than a couple of hours at a time. I usually stay at a hotel when I visit for more than a few hours) and the fridge had no fresh veggies, and the house was full of treats! Cookies, fudge, butter tarts, chocolate cream rolls, chocolates, chips etc.
My aunt had left a tuna and potato casserole. I had that then had a tart for dessert. Then a piece of fudge. (Did I mention that it was a very stressful day, at work in the morning, then at the hospital, then at home, while my aunt and uncle were telling me how worried they are about my mothers confusion, and my dad's heart condition. )
Next I picked up a chocolate cream role, took a bite. As I was chewing, I realized I was starting a binge. I realized it wouldn't help me deal with stress. I realized that what I was eating wasn't delicious or worth a load of calories. I realized that I had the power to stop.
I spit out what was in my mouth and tossed the rest of the cream roll.
I got out my knitting, and didn't eat again that evening.
I put everything out of site the next night, and just had a piece of fudge after supper, which was my own home made with fresh broccoli, chicken and 2 mini potatoes. Green salad on the side. AHHHH, I felt SOOO much better. Now that was a stress buster.
Tonight, when I got home, my husband had a fresh made supper ready, then we had a bath and some lovin', and now are sitting by the fire.
That is the PERFECT stress buster. what a great guy.
Dad is doing ok, there are some mysteries about his condition, but he agrees not to go home to the smoke, so our big problem will be getting care for my mother. Her confusion is getting worse, and she isn't eating well now.
Ok, I think I've got it all out now. Thanks for listening.
dang warthog, sorry you had a bad day. Get back on track now, and you will be fine. these days that test us will teach us.
take care.
spoz, keep it up, just amazing.
Everyone, keep on.
This would then be day 3 for me!
