Tuesday, Glad that you at least feel better. Sometimes you just have to eat something!
I am on day 5 of my Golden POPness!!!!! Hope the scale finally starts moving... got on it and it was UP this morning.... arg! but I knew that I had a salt overindulgence yesterday, so I don't even know why I bothered to weigh myself, except for extreme discouragement! Well did work for that, but today I'm going to drink the water and the HLW and try the scale again tomorrow.
Tuesday, I know exactly how you feel! The smell of fast food lingers longer than cheap perfume in a department store. There is nothing worse to remind you of the guilt. I too have been known to hover over a steering wheel like some sort of criminal trying to avoid being caught (by who, I'm not sure) but I so get it! At least you had the control of only ordering what you needed to kill the craving and then threw out what you didn't eat. I have yet to reach that stage, if I fall off the wagon, I fall hard. Never mind ordering a small, I would have eaten every morsel so congratulations on using that self control even when your cheating a bit.
Hi guys- today was so increadibly not POP-didn't eat all day from my nerves and then went to a bunco party where they made lasagna...luckily I didn't eat much!
Well I managed to climb back on the wagon. I was POP all day yesterday. I did trade one of my fruits and lites for two glasses of wine. but the way I see it this diet drives me to drink.
No, not really my career choice is driving me to drink. I had a friend and fellow animal welfare worker drop by on her way from work. she and I commiserated over the pressures that come with our jobs. Friday afternoons have a way of bringing in more animals than you have room and the pressure of juggling can cause some hard feelings toward people. Plus it was a really good bottle of merlot!
Well my POP day went POOP.... My mom and dad kept DS last night for the first time in forever. He hasnt been away from us at night in a year! So DH took me out to eat at cracker barrell where I indulged in chicken and dumplins with a side of dumplins... MM it was worth it... lol I am back POP today!
Whoo hoo.... half way through Saturday and I'm still POP. I just have to hang on and have a good weekend for once. I plan on staying POP until Friday, which is not so long now.... of course then on Friday... well I already told my DH that I wanted champagne and lobster... Went to the spin cycling class this morning, so always challenging to stay POP after a big workout like that (for some reason it makes me crazy hungry). Oh well, so far so good. Had a lot of cucumber, since I don't really limit my veggies as much as I probably should (started the unlimited veggies on the first week of stabilization and never went back to counting them, but oh well, I don't think that extra cucumbers have really been my problem) Anyway, I can just feel in my body that I"m getting leaner.... Last weekend, I accidentally bought a size 6 skirt (it was on a size 8 hanger) I would never have even imagined that one would fit.... and I wore it before I noticed that the tag I cut off it said size 6 on it the night after I wore it and went to throw away the tag I had cut off... So even if the weight is not budging I think I'm shrinking... Maybe not a lot, but a little bit.
Hey Ladies, Went to WI today. My counselor changed my menu for the day to try to see if I can get the scale moving quicker. So I quess I should be POP to see if it is going to work. Would probably have worked if I had just stayed POP. I can't seem to quit munching on things that my skinny DD has hid in her room. I know know the hiding place. Worce than an alcoholic!!!
Ok, We will see how tomorrow goes. Not POP today because I have been napping on and off all day and not eating on schedule. I am going to do dinner in a minute. Talk to you later.
I am going out to two meals today. I sat down this morning a figured out exactly what I could order at each then picked out what I could have for my other choices. My one cheat is that today I am not having my "lites" and taking the food exchange instead. extra 1/2 protein, extra starch, veggie, fruit ect.
The salad that cam with my lunch was extremely small so I had an extra 1/2 veggie so I am eating some cucumbers and hot tea with lime before I leave for dinner. I get to have sonomono (cucumber salad) sushi, rice and some orange slices for desert. Wish me luck because this is a weak area for me. I have been avoiding dining out because when I am out I always reason that I can splurge. And you know what happens next.
