Day 4. Made it through the weekend!

[Meg1dayatatime]

I am in! I am a new member, enrolled just today. I take the challenge starting this very minute!

Sorry I haven't been here for a while. I got super busy with work, and the days just seemed to have flown by. February 9th is my one year anniversary. Can you believe it?!!!

Looking back, it seemed to go by pretty fast. (At the time, it was one day at a time.) The holidays were not easy, (especially since it was and still is so cold out), but with Spring coming soon, it should be a lot easier to stay on track.

Glad to see you back, Happy!

Below is a little will power dust for you, Vixsin. (I just happened to read today that you missed it.) Congrats to you for making it 120 days!

Good luck, everyone!

CONGRATULATIONS on one year tyla! That's incredible!

Today is Day 1 again. I'm hoping tomorrow will be Day 2.

I'm going to join. I've been binging and over eating every day for way too long. I was doing so well! It's like I start seeing progress, flip out and start eating. I hate it.

Tonight I ate Cup 'o Noodles for BREAKFAST, then 3 cups of pasta salad, 1 cup of some creamy apple salad, 2 mini garlic cheese biscuits and TWO carrot cake cupcakes just for lunch. Dinner was turkey sausage and potatoes. THEN 420 calories worth of Doritos, an entire "Hunger Grab" bag. I love how it's touted as a "Hunger Grab" size bag, but the nutritional info says there are 3 servings in it. Why the **** do they even bother breaking it into 3? UGH. I even went out and bought a bunch of frozen snack foods that are WAY calorie dense and just not good for me. I haven't made them. It was one of those purchases that I knew I'd regret before I even got to the checkout.

So yeah, this is Day 1 for me. I KNOW I can do this. I know I can. I feel like I'm punishing myself or self-sabotaging and it absolutely has to stop. My size 12's are getting tight.

Day one-- check. *pats self on back*

120 days is amazing, Vixsin! One day at a time right?

Here's to day two, all!

hey everyone! The new puppy has kept me very BUSY this weekend, which has been great for my diet. No binges this entire weekend, which puts me at day 4 today!

[Eurydice]

tyla, one year is incredible! Congratulations prematurely! I know you can make it

Day 34. I'll be honest, counting days sometimes makes me nervous, just because I know that I'm not perfect and that chances are good I'll end up binging again some day in the future. The higher the number of days, the more I feel I have to lose. I should maybe reframe my thinking about this...

Day 1, which means my turn-around yesterday was successful.

[Dayna320]

i think this is actually day five. but going with the thread day one complete. i'll call it a sauces even though i did go over my calorie limit by quite a bit. it wasn't on account of binge like behaviors. and i stayed with in my carb limit. that would definitely not have happened during a binge. nothing felt like a binge. very little guilt and i never felt out of control. so i'm going with non-binge. calories not withstanding.

[krampus]

I felt binge-y and coming down from sugar all day, but instead of restricting and binging I just ate when I was hungry. Imagine that - no binges. Calories for the day at 1510 and that included an unplanned lump of sugary bread in the morning. Day 1: success

[spingirl9]

completed day 24 yesterday and now on to day 25. Work was really really stressful, but I didn't use that as an excuse to graze.

tyla: one year, wow! That's amazing. I really really want to be there this time next year.
krazy: great job making it through the weekend!
congrats everyone else that I am not mentioning.

Today's day 2. I had a major victory yesterday in which I went to the grocery store with all intents to buy binge foods, and walked out with brown rice pasta and a zucchini to make myself a healthy dinner. I think I came to a realization yesterday. I can't focus on losing weight and beating the binge monster at the same time. I think losing weight will obviously become easier as I stop binging so frequently (every 1 to 5 days, currently) but this behavior is just ridiculous. So I'm going to continue to eat my healthy foods (whole, natural, unprocessed, gluten free) and just not count points or calories or weigh or measure. I know what an appropriate serving size is from years of counting. I'm hoping that if I give myself permission to add a little extra olive oil to my pasta, that won't make me feel so restricted, and won't encourage me to binge. We'll see how this goes.

tyla - Wow!! One year of no binges is amazing! Vixin, you too! 120 days?? I haven't even made it half that long before.

Getting ready to start my first real day of no binges. The frozen wings got gobbled last night. However, I stopped myself at the mini cheeseburgers. Didn't have one, so I'll count that as a very small victory.

I'm really sick to my stomach today. Since I've been eating so badly my stomach and the rest of my digestive system has been punishing me.

So today for breakfast I've had 1 bowl of Fiber one shredded wheat, my ADD meds (which have been rarely taken lately because I keep forgetting ) and a multi-vitamin. I'm thinking of picking up some protein shakes since I know I'm not getting enough protein. I crave meat all the time, but it has to be cooked very well (as in good) or I can't stand it. Too spicy/salty/peppery/overdone/underdone and I just can't bring myself to eat it. Good meat I tend to binge on, too. How weird is that??
