Dont you just love the holiday season LOL....just think this time next month you can breath a sigh of relief!!! Hang in there only 26 more days to go....try to take a  few minutes to yourself and enjoy all the koas....maybe in a few years we will be the ones doing the traveling to our childrens house LOL.....Have a great Holiday!!! 

i went hru a period of these shakes- and usually i, too, had a good breakfast of protein- but sometimes i wait too long to eat again--i have found tha when i do only 2-3 hours in between and then small amounts i am better off- also- when i do only protein type things and NO carbs i find some issues-

when you get these shakes do you also feel like your skin is crawling....not bug like but almost like a chill from the inside?

on the other side of the coin---i drank some chocolate milk saturday and dumped BIG TIME...stupid stupid stupid!!!!!!!!!!!

Please. you are not a loser. I wish you would stop that!  You are a normal person!!! we all down those candies once in awhile. Oh and I am a gummie freak so.... i understand. lol... !!  unfortunately right? I'm not scared, I guess because I have always shook to a certain extent. I never really thought much about it. slight shakes now and then but nothing drastic is a bit normal for me. Though at times once in a while like maybe once or twice a week or so I get them pretty bad around lunch time. Sometimes when I dont eat enough. I thought the egg and the bacon would've been enough. It wasn't alot though so maybe not... I'm with you...the eggs and bacon wouldn't really trigger the blood sugar... i wouldn't think. But im not sure what else it would be. I had my decaf but that has some splenda in it and a little milk. After I ate it slowly went away so maybe its just... i dont know what. I DO worry about getting parkinsons... my father who is in his 70s was just diagnosed with it. My uncle shook when he was older as well. it was a very slooow progressing disease with them. My dad shook just a little bit. Small tremors. He still doesnt have it severe. Once in awhile his hands will shake when he's eating something he shouldn't or if hes stressed. So i do worry about that a little. I dont think thats what it is but who knows. I think maybe i just didnt eat enough. i guess. since Ive been eating a full breakfast and been skimming it down the last couple of days. I haven't had my protein drink. I still feel a little bit shaky but nothing out of the norm. I guess I just never really thought about it really. It was just pretty bad today and I figured I'd post to see what I heard back. :) oh and most of the time when i eat sugar like that... i dont really get anything. unless its ice cream... then i dump! get all shaky and sick and then knocked out sleepiness... but if I ate a bag of gummy bears... nothing. Maybe in a blue moon i would get a little bit sleepy... WHICH SUCKS! by the way. not that im going around eating bags of gummies... i exaggerated a little there. lol.... i supppose if i ate a WHOLE bag i would get a bit of a heart race... but just the normal servings of candy usually doesnt affect me which again sucks. anywhooo... i really need to work at getting the sugar out of my system. Its hard and i struggle everyday... some days are better than others. today is an ok day so far. soup... eggs and bacon. decaf and water and ice. lol.... if i can just keep it up ill be good. Gonna drink my protein drink now.... and hang in there. Just work off those little gummies by going for a nice brisk walk and then you dont ahve to beat yourself up!   your still my inspiration reenie.

Ok... I'm not dizzy... But I do have bouts of the shakes. Like right now I am shaking like crazy. Not caffiene induced as I cannot drink caffeine. I did have some breakfast this morning... an egg and bacon. I still think it has to do with blood sugar because I am REALLY shaky. would you all agree? I am eating my soup now which has chicken and greens and macaroni in it so that should help I would think. I just hate it. I usually do get it around lunch time. I also have a protein drink that I will have a little later. That will probably really help out.

 

Hi Joanie,

WOW! You are a busy bee!!!  With all the stress that comes with it its good it didn't affect your eating. Thats great, but the exercise helps keep that in check. I did a little myself this weekend. I need to do it every single day or at LEAST 3 times a week. It really is a major component to loosing and keeping the weight off, your so right in that there is no way around it.  Hang in there!!! at least your DH is helping you out. Thats always a bonus!
