Good morning! Well I am starting a new semester in college today so my sleep has been crappy and I'm up at 4:20 CA time...but I am starting off the week great. Being on here and waking up entirely before allowing myself to eat breakfast (5 AM is the earliest i will allow myself to eat to make sure my body has had enough time between dinner and breakfast) allows me to really think about what I want to start off my day with. I hate that I'm awake but I know that the choices I make today will be positive. By counting calories and logging everything I eat and making myself accountable, I've broken my plateau of 145 down to the 138-142 range. Let's make it a good week, ladies!!
Ah, i'm totally an emotional binge-eater! When i get upset or mad BAM, bring on the food. -sigh-
So, since i'm the type of person who does really good when i know i have to stick to something in a pack or challenge or contract, i'm totally signing up for this challenge!!
Hey everyone!
I'm feeling quote optimistic this week~ On friday I had an exam, and I have another NEXT wednesday, so it's a revision week~
I just had the nicest low cal dinner!
Weightwatchers tomato soup (75cals) some wilted baby spinage (25 cals) and a nice side portion of freshly boiled butternut squash cubes (100)
Was delish~
Day 5. I had one small piece of cake at my nephew's birthday and lots of coffee.
I just had dinner and now, I'm neither hungry nor craving anything in particular, but I feel unsatisfied. I'll have an apple and some tea and then go to bed early.
I'm signing up! *This is actually my first post on 3FC but I've been reading the forum for ideas and inspiration for while now!*
I did terrible last night, but I'm ready to put it behind me and restart fresh. I've worked out today already and eaten healthy so far, and I want it to be like this everyday this week! And like Kimo, challenges are totally good for me to stick with it.
But I've been sick all weekend and have been eating my whole kitchen.
So I'm going to start over considering I wasn't that far into it anyways, I'm determined now.
I'm in! I have been doing so well since I started this journey 2 weeks ago. I have always been an emotional eater, so this is something I'm really working on. Bring it!
First post...I've NEVER joined any forum... but I literally gained 15 lbs this month...I can't stop binge eating. Went from 180 to 195...I'm miserable & can't seem to stop. So...wierd. I just picked up email. Costco email showed deal on nutrisystem. Ck'd on that & decided to google it to see if anyone had anything to say about it... wound up here. Hmmmmm....NEVER thought some stranger online could help, but here I am, and I feel a bit stronger. I will take your challenge!!! To be continued...
Today is day 4 of no binging, but I likely ate too many calories overall yesterday b/c I had dinner w/ colleagues.
I tried to get something relatively healthy, but due to restaurants being so high cal: and this one not publising their cal info: I likely still overate by at least 300 cal if I estimate high.
This wouldn't be a huge deal but I overate by 600 cal on Friday.
--> so that combined with yesterday = I need to really work out more this week! I didn't work out at all yest becuase I got home late.
(On the other hand, at least I didn't have dessert @ restaurant or get anything bad when I was at the grocery store following dinner last night...I was super tempted to get crumb cake or something!).
