Hey guys! Sorry I was MIA for a while. This weekend we did the hardwood floors in our house, and we still have more to do! So I'm on Day 23! I was able to eat nachos and chineese food this weekend and didn't binge once! Just ate my small portions enjoyed and moved on. So for this challenge I want to continue to be binge free and to not eat out this week and say OP with my calories. I hope you all have a wonderful challenge and day. I'll get back to you all a bit later.

Today is day 17 for me and I feel it getting easier.
I think it helps that I don't make myself stay on program every second. I used to think of things as "on program" or "off program". The minute I slipped "off program", the binge started because it didn't matter to me, off program was bad enough, didn't matter if I was 10 calories off program or 2000. I'm trying to see things as more gray than just black or white. I can have chocolate, and i'll count the weight watchers points and adjust my day accordingly. I'm learning how to budget. Today I had cookies, counted the 4 points for them and adjusted my dinner to one of those 0 points soups from weight watchers. Sorry for the book, just sharing.... |
Ohh wow, there really is everything here isn't there?
Today was day 1 for me today and no binging in sight, Its gonna get harder but if all of you can stick with it, so can I :) |
day 12 here! Nice work everybody!!!
|
I'm on day 8 and let me tell you, I want some chocolate. I know it's because I'm tired and cranky and a little chocolate would help me feel happy, at least briefly. But you know what? It wouldn't be dealing with the real issues behind my crankiness, and it'll just damage my calorie count for the day. I don't feel like it AT ALL, but right now I'm gonna go exercise instead. Maybe once I get going I'll feel better.

Hmm dinner tonight didn't go so well for me. Not a binge... just too many calories. I'm not sure if I could have expected anything else though -- I was out for dinner! I turned down dessert but not until after I overindulged on my sweet potato fries with caesar dip! It was good... but that's enough for awhile.

Whewwwwwwwww I nearly had a binge tonight. I'm tired and forcing myself to study for this exam tomorrow. And for the LIFE of me I could not stop thinking about the box of granola/blueberry cereal that I had in my cabinet. I just wanted something crunchy and sweet to munch on. So I fought with myself over and over again in my head. When I took a break from studying to watch House I was lying there and I realized....why don't I just have a bowl of the cereal with milk and then maybe I'll be satisfied? See my problem is that I have a tendency to just grab the box and start eating the cereal by the handfuls. This way though...I'm having the cereal, but in a controlled manner. Granted I wasn't hungry AT ALL cuz I had eaten dinner 2 1/2 hours earlier. Buuuutt it WORKED. I'm completely fine now. So now I can count this day as just eating over my allotted calories a little bit rather than a binge! Which means that this is 1 week of being binge free completed! I'm pretty happy with myself...now back to studying :-)

day 7! :) it feels great and everyday i feel like im doing better and better!
usually it seems as thought i do very well for a week or two then slip up so the next bit will be a good test! :) hape everyone had a great day!! |
Day 18! I almost blew it today, I stopped myself. I did even go over my calorie limit.
|
I'm hanging onto Day 19 by my fingertips. I definitely engaged in some uncontrolled eating, but I not only have stopped myself, but I wrote it all down and held myself accountable! For those two reasons, I don't consider it a binge. All of my previous binges were only stopped by me going to bed and I never tracked what I ate. Mainly because I couldn't remember half of what I'd eaten. I wish I could stop the "need to eat" feeling, but I feel like this progress!

duqserb - NICE work! It's really great that you were able to think "how can I satisfy my craving without going overboard"? and the controlled bowl of cereal you ate is nothing compared to the calories in a binge... nice job. I admire your willpower.
Nice job Chels38 - A whole week! Woot! fruitlady - keep your chin up. :) You didn't binge... that's what counts, right? foxxy - nice work! You didn't binge, even though you were on the edge. YOu consciously made a decision not to binge and stuck with it. Nice work!! |
Working on Day 8. Great job, duqserb! I also have exams this week so I know how tough it can be. Hang in there.

Day 64!!!! :D
Thank you all for keeping me strong. :hug: Foxxy, Fruitlady, Chels and Lata, good job! Stay strong. Let's keep going..... Tyla |
Starting Day 31 here...
I have a headache, which is mostly bad, but I notice that when I have a headache, I never get the urge to binge! I just want to close my eyes and sleep. Unfortunalty, I can't do that (you know, work...), but I'm trying to see the positive! |
Good Morning Everyone:)
I'm starting day 9 and I'm finding that it's getting a little easier to stay OP and in control. Nice job to all of those who are hanging on. We can do it!!! Stay strong Paris. I hope you can shake your headache soon. Hang on Foxxy - you can do it! I hope you all have a great binge free day. |
