HarpoChicoGroucho,

Well I completely understand the eating alot before my TOM I had that last Monday night I just ate and ate, I was so mad at myself for doing that! But I was so hungry all day long and I couldn't figure out why as I wasn't eating any less than usual. Well about a couple of days later I was reading in one of my health magazines and it says that about a week before your TOM you burn more calories in your body and that is why you are so hungry. It really made sense to me after my Monday night eating session as I haven't done that in awhile! So that might explain that a bit.
Good luck at the buffet, just try and make more sensible choices, yeah I know easier said than done!

mornin ladies!

hey harpo welcome and believe me i hear you-i havent been able to stop either but thats why im goin bk to ww.

Just a thought... would some people prefer that we post our food binges in another post? I know it sets some people off...

I hope everyone is having a good day!
Andrea, d-day is coming up, girl!

anyway, i apologize if i set anything off in anyone....dont know what everyone eles thoughts are on this but i was kinda thinking that we would post everything on here but if yall want something different, just holler....

wtg!

Oh, no need to apologize, hon!
I just remember a few people in the past saying that just reading about food binges sets them off...
Anyhow, I'm okay with whatever... just thought I'd mention it in case...

Chubs, congratulations!!
Isn't is wonderful getting compliments?

Welcome to all the new people!

A good friend of mine died on the weekend, and I've had a couple of bad eating days. The funeral was today, and I managed to stay on track, so I think I'm back in the grove.

Please excuse this small interjection into the thread. I don't really have anything to add to the thread itself at this time.

I just wanted to say, Ellis, I'm so sorry to hear of the loss of your friend. That's always a tough time.

Nildee, that's fine! Thank you for letting us know.
I'm going to xxx out the mention of binges, and if anyone wants to "confess" to anything, they can start another thread.

Let's all stay postive, ladies!

Lena, you're such a darling... thank you, sweetie...

Nildee, thanks, hon.

This thread IS about control!! No enabling... let's all stay strong together!!

i want to be part of a group that accepts my talking about my bad days as well as my good. ellis sorry to hear about your friend.....

Okay, we'll start a new thread, andreaphilip, because I need to talk about my bad days too. I need to cyber-purge. I'll make the new thread. Cyber purgers (warning: binge confessions) We'll put a warning on it for anyone who doesn't want to read it.

Andrea and Harpo, thank you so much for starting the other thread. It felt like my head was going to blow off last night with the stress. It's so hard to please everyone.

I'm starting the day with a healthy breakfast, will move on to a healthy snack and then a healthy lunch... etc, etc.
And I've got to get my 6500 steps in on my pedometer. And I think a little weight work-out. I missed my class last night because of the funeral.
Thanks to all of you for your kind words... they're much appreciated...
