I now know that I cant cheat. I had my bbq for memorial day n ate some things i shouldn't
i feel completely sick to my stomach. good thing I learned sooner than later. ughh so nauseolus. anyone else ever feel like this?

Yep. Felt that way yesterday.

I am trying to be realistic and not so so strict but it is very dificult. I know that when I 'cheat' or induldge, even if it is planned I just want more of that food. I find it hard to stop after I eat the planned portion.
I dont necessarily feel sick, but guilty and I feel like I just ruined all the work i did up to that point.
I dont know how to start unthinking this way...
I think that it is mostly because I am contstantly thinking about food, how much I ate, when I ate last, what I ate, when will I eat next, what will I eat, how many cals. have I eaten. how many cals. do I have left for the day.
I wish I knew that it would get easier and become a lifestyle...

im always thinking about food too. not good when your dieting or eating better

Yes, I have felt that way so I don't cheat on those things anymore. Potato chips (and other junky snack foods) do not sit well in my stomach anymore and make me feel horrible.

glad im not the only one. for me im going to use that to my advantage.

im def using this to my advantage

For me, counting calories means that nothing is off limits. So I have had what I have wanted, even if it means it has to be such a small portion. But to have a meal or a day where anything goes in any amount is not at all in my plan. That kind of thinking made me obese.

I am really having trouble with food these days too. I quickly feel overly full on the exact same amount I had only the day before! Weird.
