  • Quote: I would love to get to the point that I used to be: able to eat carby things in normal amounts without bingeing. With my tendency to gain weight in the last few years, and through trial-and-error, I know I can't eat a lot of carbs and maintain a decent weight.

    The good news is that I am finally at a weight that I consider acceptable and that I did maintain around this weight a few years ago for ~1.5 years without any real effort beyond "be reasonable" about food choices, like normal portion sizes... Then the binge problems began again and my weight shot up 20+ pounds. It's a constant struggle for me to eat healthy - it's NOT a natural response for me, I have to think about it all the time ... I think the only thing that saves me from myself is constant planning and regular weighing (though my clothes pretty much give me the same info). I am expecting to have to do this to some degree forever.

    October start weight: 132.6
    October goal weight: 131.2 (below the lowest weight I have seen in 6+ years) = –1.4 pounds
    REAL October goal weight: 129.8 = –2.8 stinkin' pounds
    REVISED October goal, after illness gain: get back to Oct 1 weight = 132.6

    Oct 01 -- 132.6
    Oct 02 -- 132.8
    Oct 03 -- 132.6
    Oct 04-10 siiiiiick and binging on bread, bagels etc I saw 136s on the scale...
    Oct 11 -- 134.8
    Oct 12 -- 133.8
    Oct 13-17 -- Away, sick, no WIs
    Oct 18 -- 135.6
    Oct 19 -- 134.6
    Oct 20 -- 134.0
    [+1.4 pounds from Oct 1]

    I'm at a conference for 2 days - we'll see how that goes. I don't have much control over dinners so I'll just try to not overeat. For the rest of the time, I'll be OK and I'll try to walk as much as possible.
    I feel like we're in the same boat in a lot of ways: We've gotten to a good weight, but we're also to where we need to constantly be cognizant of what we're eating, and will probably have to do that until the foreseeable future.

    I, for one, feel resentment at that, but I also feel resentment about having to do dishes every day, day in and day out, until forever. It's egregious, but it results in good things - ironically enough, clean dishes to eat that carefully chosen and measured food off of. This may go in that category covered by the Serenity Prayer, under "things we cannot change." Unless we find a magical potion that will let us eat what we want, whenever we want. Please let me know if you come across one of those, would you?
  • Quote: HungerWerks - thanks, that's a great thread BTW! And yeah, I'm snacking on berries while typing this, trying to avoid going out in the cold to exercise. Oh I'll go I'll go. I know my body really craves a good sweat right now.


    Edit: Well, I did go out to exercise, properly dressed and fuelled, and had great time!

    Thank you - there are so many great contributions from across the forum. Free foods are a very happy-making topic!

    Way to get out and exercise. Sometimes, for me, at least, the hardest step is from "I'd love to get out" to "I'm out!"

    I was sick for two plus weeks and found out what working out once a week does. Hoping to get back.

    Goal- 118 again would be nice

    I'm still sick week four. The cough is getting better. I think my new moldy classroom at work has caused my asthma to return, hence the perpetual cold.
    So sorry to hear that. I worked at a place one time where the owners did not know that another store in the area had mold and ventilation problems, and it spread to our store. We all felt the effects. I hope whatever's going on where you are can be fixed soon.
