Thanks Chels & Uki, I would say I'm all or nothing. If I mess up I'm going to think might as well eat the rest of the day. I'm either OP all the way or Off. I start with one thing and think ok, get up and go get something else, and just keep it up. I am an emotional eater and I have been going through some stuff with a friend. I also (maybe this is TMI) haven't had a period since Dec. and think I might be starting into menopause. Whatever the problem is I need to work through them and not turn to food. Thanks for your encouragement ladies, it means a lot.
Hang in there Laura. I was in your shoes just a couple weeks ago. I was stressed out due to job situation and I just went hog wild for like 3 days. Then I had to just grab the bull by the horns so to speak and give myself a good pep talk and tell myself to "STOP". Just take it meal my meal, snack by snack. Don't let 3 days turn into 3 months. Remember all those reasons why you want to lose the weight and let that be your motivation.
With that said...I had PIZZA yesterday folks! Not homemade WW pizza either! The real deal. I didn't go crazy and eat the whole pie though :) (YAY) I never eat my activity points and I just felt like I needed to let myself have that pizza. I kept it thin crust and limited myself to 3 squares and it totally satisfied the crave.
So, hope you all are doing well today. I have a busy day with a packed schedule, so I'm gonna just say I'm doing great and I will post my meals in a bit.
Good Morning at almost noon! Busy with the baby again. She's laying across my lap on her belly right now as I'm on the computer.
I'm OP today! Trying to have a much better week and hopefully a better weigh-in on Saturday. I think we are all suffering from the winter doldrums!! I do much better when I can get outside and do things and not be cooped up in the house. I used to like to get out and go shopping or something in the winter, but not with today's economy! I stay home and try to stay busy!
Hope you all are having a good day! HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Becky! Hope you're having a great day!!
I am in the same boat with the ALL or Nothing, but I'm trying to just keep track. I followed everyone's advice and have been eating more filling foods after the gym (usually an apple on the way home) so I have time to get my lunch ready (chicken salad) and not starve so badly. I'm trying to stay ahead of the hunger. It gets hard when we have everyone/everything pulling us different directions, I think I got worn down and gave up on taking as good of care of myself.
I have been eating less though so I'm hoping to have lost this week. I feel like I have but I have my scale hidden in the garage and I don't use it. I weigh on Saturday, I'll let you know.
