So what will you do on Monday or Sunday night to get yourself ready for a good week? I bought myself the large bottles of water so i can make a concentrated effort to get my minimum fluids in. I am going to pack myself lunch and snacks so that at work I don't make poor choices in the gift shop! I've got myself signed up for a kick boxing class on Tuesday that i'm all excited for. I just started a new job and the kids are back to their school/sports schedule so i'm not sure when to get in my exercise but I know that i need to get it in. At the end of the month my dance classes start up again and I know that will be a thrill for me so if i can watch the weight long enough for dancing to start up i'll be fine. ANDI

I decided a while ago that I was going to junk out. The boys and I had been good, so we went to the store and bought a couple of bags of junk... chips, chocolate, jelly beans etc the boys were picking and so was I . I picked all the things that I had been thinking that I would like to eat and wasn't. I figured that I would get it all out of my system in one fell swoop. We got home and had a feast of crap. The boys were in heaven. They are 10- 11 and 12 yrs old so it doesn't take much to do this I couldn't eat all that I wanted, I had to be careful to eat a little of everything so that I could get each thing in. It was heaven... I don't dump so there was no dumping, only the familiar feeling of having way too much sugar. I haven't wanted to do it since. I tried last night to get out and get some icecream as a reward for doing well over the week. The kids were acting up and we stayed home instead and my Saturday reward was pretty uneventful. I hope that you don't post your food because you feel like you will be judged by it. I am the last one to judge someone elses eating. I wanted to have this thread so that I could be open about what I was eating and therefore having to think about it before I do it. If people only write down what they eat when they are good, then how to we support each other?

Did you enjoy any of the foods you ate? Eating poorly is bad if you didn't even get to enjoy the foods that you chose to pig out on. If you had one really good piece of chocolate don't you think that would have served you better then having a ton of junk? It's all about the choices my sweety baboo! On Friday i had a fabulous party to go to and I ate poorly and paid dearly. Thankfully my boss has nexium on her or i'd have died from heart burn.....fried calamari, parmagiano reggiano cheese and prosciutto are all the appetizers (I got to eat them twice due to the wonders of vomiting!) but i did not eat dinner and I danced all evening which was great and I had a bite of tira misu which was just fabulous and due to feeling like poop i only had a bite! The scales did not tell of my adventures (probably because I puked) but i've got bad belly bloat if that counts for anything. Hugs, ANDI

these are kittens Ruthy, I don't have the patients or the time for puppies, this is a HUGE year for our family, the oldest boy has his bar mitzvah coming up, he's a starter on the football squad, the middle boy is taking skating, hebrew class and school and my princess starts her hebrew lessons and school and she is undecided about dance or gymnastics. ANDI

As you'll see from my other post - I daren't itemise what I ate here - it would give you all too much of a shock! Needless to say, my day was full of carbs, little protein and lots of junk... The day is over, I can start over. What a great creation a new day is
