Hey LeaLee, i think you are doing the right thing about teaching your kids about the right way to eat- there are too many kids who are only taught about nutrition and what's 'bad' for you when it's too late...
I know when i have kids i will definatly teach them about nutrition and 'good' and 'bad' foods. You know you are a good mother and you don't need anyone else to tell you if you are or aren't.
Yes, the trouble i have is that 1) well i can't really cook THAT well lol 2) i never have anything 'healthy' in the house, which is my own fault really and 3) i never plan my meals. I just tell myself not to eat, which is the TOTALLY wrong thing to do because i end up eating about twice as much as i would have done neway! grr. But i will try to plan from now on!
Thats all i will say on this matter, this is a binge thread meant for overeaters to come and admit binges and I feel that this conversation is getting in the way of other posts in which people are asking for encouragment and support.
I agree, LeaLee.
DairyQueen, please respect the posters on this thread. People come here for support, not criticism.
I hope everyone is having a good day! Stay out of the munchies, ladies.
Well i don't think i have had a good day today haha but i'm not going to let it get me down. I'll tell everyone what i ate so you can feel better about yourselves:
1 macdonalds hash brown and coffee
loadsa tomatoes (bit random, i know!)
Cadbury's dairy milk bubble (it was staring at me, ok?!)
Weight Watchers Vegetable Chilli
2 slices of toast with really naughty butter
Bowel of coco pops
Pack of sugary mints
Loadsa bites of the Big Breakfast i made my boyfriend hehe
And later i will be having ridiculous amounts of alcohol because i am going out! EEEK!
Today has not been Great for me but so far its ok....
its 11:00am here and i had 2 pieces of french toast with syrup and 3 cups of coffee for breakfast. that was at about 9 or so
About 1 we are going to the library (walking its 3 blocks away...gotta love small towns) so lunch will be after that and will prolly be a can of progresso soup with a few garlic butter ritz crackers. Dinner will either be a smaller portion of what i make for the family or a healthy choice meal.
Yesterday sucked..i had ice cream with brownie for lunch..but it wasn't a binge it was lunch.
Thank you Ellis I was hoping i was handeling that good enough....I feel the need to stand up for myself when it comes to my kids but felt it was becoming monotonous (sp?).
OH and leah on the alcohol thing...make yourself order water (and drink it lol ) between each order for a new drink. I do that on the rare occasion that we go out and it helps you not drink as many alcoholic things.
I'll tell everyone what i ate so you can feel better about yourselves:
Leah, you're too cute.
That's a great tip from LeaLee. Have fun tonight, and take it easy.
LeaLee, it sounds like your day is going okay. I hope it continues to be good.
I'm with Leah... I think you sound like a great mom.
I don't know how hot it is where ya'll are, but it's frickin' 36C (97F) here with the humidex. This isn't right. Isn't there supposed to be some sort of transition between winter and summer? It was just 2C about a week and a half ago. I'm all hot and bothered. But does that stop me from eating? Oh, nooooo...
I just had guacamole and chips. Not a huge binge, but not good. No, not good at all...
But Wait.. Don't STOP THE PRESSES just yet!! I don't consider it a binge. I will consider this my breakfast and lunch, the whole thing was 970 calories. I usually aim for 1200-1400 per day. so I just have to be good for the rest of the day. I know it sounds like a binge though but trust me, my binges (or what I consider binges) were much much larger than that (3,000-5,000 calories)
hi chicks,
i started trying to write down all the stuff i ate over the long "full of food weekend" and i got writers cramp LOL. lets just say the past 4 days have been REALLY BAD!! today was a bit better, i actually feel sort of sluggish and sickly from all the crap food i ate . wondering why i keep doing it?? some of it was binging most of it was just rotten choices and the "poor me" thing i go through once in a while. pulling myself back up this week may is almost at an end and summer is right around the corner!
I'm back, and I spoke too soon. I broke my 34 day binge free record today. I actually HAD done GOOD. Everything was fine. but then, it happened... I got very sexually violated today, by a guy that has been "stalking" me for the past few weeks. He finally got me into an empty room today, and basically just powered over me. I'm still in shock. once I left, I came home, and I stuffed myself. I feel numb, sick, and unsure what to do. And I'm binging because I just want to be fat, I want to be unattractive to men, I dont know anything anymore. I'm so sad.
I have not reported him. I am still kind of in shock, I dont even know what to do. it's 2 a.m. and I'm still up, I just can't sleep. I was afraid it would happen but at the same time didn't believe it would, and it did. I am OK physically though. I really just can't handle this mentally though
Hungry, I'm so sorry this happened to you. You've got to report this, sweetie. You can't let it go on. It'll happen again. And this jerk will do it to other women, too. Please get some help on this.
Stay out of the munchies, ladies.
