Ate way to much junk this weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok guys.......here's the awful truth...I ate way to much this weekend AM I NUTS? I didn't go through this surgery and loose 150lbs for nothing....I really am being hard on myself today it is time to get back on track....when I say I went crazy...here is the deal...I ate crap like popcorn (alot, not low-cal either) sugar free cookies, sugar free fudge cycles, chips and salsa I grazed on this crap all weekend long as well as having my regular meals, and drank no water. I even ate some Onion rings. I typically don't do this sort of thing...and I no I will not reach goal if I continue this type of behavior...thats what go me fat in the first place...I am really upset with myself, and how easy it was to fall back into this old pattern of self sabatoge. I think i will try to attend the next support group and hopefully this week will be better....I am 10 months post-op and up till now have been very faithful to "the plan" so I quess I need to keep that junk out of my house and just focus on the goal at hand....I no it could be worse I could have attempted to eat a pizza or something but at this point it is getting harder to loose this last 20lbs. that needs to go. Thanks for listening!!!!

You know what, I do the same thing once in a while (believe me, I ate a Twix bar in the car yesterday)! I'm not too hard on myself, though- it's not like I eat like that every single day. I've decided that I'm NOT on a diet, if I want a cookie I have one (just not 12 like the old days). Yeah, you ate a bunch of junk, but rein yourself back in and do better. I think we all blow it sometimes, the trick is to realize it and get back under control. I really think your best bet is to "forgive" yourself and move on, dont dwell on this past weekend, look at how great you've done over the past 10 months and look forward! Good luck, hope this helps!

Thanks Rebecca--- Your right.......the weekend is over...move on. Hopefully the next time I have a weak moment I can recognize it and ward it off at the pass! Have a great day!!!!!!!

Vickie, I am laughing about this, this morning. I was getting on-line to post about my eating habits and I find your post. We had a carnival across from our house this weekend, there wasn't any "HEALTH CONSCIOUS" food there what-so-ever. I have been eating and eating for about 2 weeks. Either from stress because of the short term visitor at my house that has become long term, the wedding, or just out of plain boredom at work. I came to work this morning telling myself that I need to go on a strict diet this week and get my pouch back to normal again. I can eat anything, and it scares me half to death. So I got on fit day this morning, put in what I had already and decided to make good decisions on my food choices this week. I have a pitcher of ho****er for green tea ( when I get cravings I need to just drink that ) and gum to keep me from snacking. I made some hard boiled eggs for protein and I have plenty of water ready. I also have it planned that after my chores each night, I am going to do yard work and walk the dogs. Instead of sitting on my rump, eating! So what do you say guys and gals say, lets get moving and help each other out. Lets post our foods and calories. We need to work together and get back on track! LOVE YAH ALL, Erin

So far this morning I've had a 9.5 oz bottle of Starbucks Frappuccino- 180 calories and a whopping 31g sugar! It's taken me since 7 to drink it (it's 9:30 now), but good grief, that sugar! I have no idea what food today will have in it, but I guess I'll try to have something a little healthier than coffee! Rebecca

This weekend was horriable for all of us. But we can get back on track. So lets follow Vickie N.'s direction and start posting what we are eating everyday this week. Lets give it a one week try. You know you don't want to post anything bad, so maybe you will make a better decision before putting that BAD FOOD in your mouth! So let's try! Erin

I know how you feel and I'm fighting to get back on track. We have to forgive ourselves and move on. We didn't come this far to fail. We have to stay motivated and keep pushing each other. Lord knows I need all the support I can get. Like Dennis always says................we can do this..............we can do this!! Take care!!! Keke
