ugh food sucks doesn't it
i always thought that it would be nice to just have nutrition pills and get rid of eating altogether.
i have problems with kinda disordered eating too...definately used to binge like it was my last night on earth.
when you recognize it for what it is at least you can have more control.
i haven't really binged in a long time...i would eat like 3 boxes of granola bars or rice crispie treats...or whole cakes, pans of cookies, brownies...yuck...boxes of brownies, i think i posted that in another thread not here...so sorry if i'm being redundant.
i don't know why i did that either...my mom has issues with food and i really inherited a lot of them.
but what can you do to stop...yeah i guess its really important to think about everything you're going to eat. and think of WHY you're eating it. tough struggle kempy, at least we all know how you feel i'm sure
Only 3 more days till New Year's Eve! Are we ready to celebrate and feel good about ourselves? Let's keep eating right, exercising and drinking our water. Let's feel great when the New Year rolls in. Have a great weekend!
I amtrying to be good today. I went and bought a book to try to learn more about food addiction and as I am reading it it takes all I have not to cry. It is sooo me. I told my sister and she told me that I don't have a problem. She was making excuses for me. I tried to tell her to stop but boy is she in denial. Everything she would say is what I am fighting. I have said all of those things to myself and francly I am sick of it. It is time for a change and lets hope girls that this is the year to do it. I am trying to control my anxiety so this will be the perfect time to control the food too.
Boy, talk about a pep talk for myself, lets just hope I stay this way all day!!!!!!!
Here we are closing in on the new year. I'm so proud, because I've followed my goals.
I hope you all had a great weekend. I sure did. My hubby and i went to two movies, "Gangs of New York" and "My Big Fat Greek Wedding." Both very enjoyable films.
On to business~~
My goals for today:
1. Watch every morsel I eat
2. Exercise
3. Water
4. Pamper
5. HAVE A FUN DAY!
Kempy, hope all is well with you. How did your weekend go?
Jo Jo, I love your positive attitude! Your wisdom keeps us all in line.
Ceejay, you're right about coming here for support. We have a great little group!
I had to leave for Christmas early as my Mom was in the hospital. They live about
20 minutes out of their town on a busy
highway. My Dad doesn't like to drive very much anymore so I took the bus out to help. Good news -- Mom came home before Christmas and is fine!!!!
Bad news, hospital food and holiday food took its toll. BUT -- I'm back to 1 day at a time and making goals:
Goal for today:
1) record what I eat
2) drink water
Hope everyone had a great holiday. I haven't had a chance to read the posts yet.
Good morning all. I had to work over the weekend so it was pretty uneventful. Dena I saw that movie again, boy that thing is on all of the time. It is a shame that you don't get a check evry time it is on, you'd be a millionare!
Jeri don't worry about the weight gain I think we are all pretty much in the same boat as you.
I will be off for the next two days so I will get some things taken care of. I have to pay property taxes, yuck! I don't understand why they can't change them to be due on July 1 instead of right after Christmas when no one has money left over. I am thinking that after I talk to Joe about the food thing I am working with he will help me go through the pantry and get rid of all of the bad food. Maybe if he understands how hard this is for me he will be more willing to let go of the peanut butter cups.
I just got back from the gym and I did 20 min. on the treadmill, 20 min. on the stationary bike and 20 min. on the elliptical. Wooo Hooo!! Am I hot or what?! I decided to start the new year right and really exercise my bod.
Kempy, good luck with your talk. We'll miss you the next couple of days.
I'm so looking forward to the New Year and all of the great things to come. Who know's what's in store this year? But I'm certainly going to help great things to happen with a positive attitude and good energy/kharma. I'm determined to get healthier and thinner by eating right, exercising, drinking my water, taking care of myself (pampering) and enjoying every day of life.
My goals for today:
1. Food Journal
2. Exercise
3. Water
4. Pamper
5. HAVE A FUN DAY! (AND NIGHT!)
