What are you eating/doing today (wednesday)

I miss Verity too....sent her a note a month ago....havent heard anything yet....but it took awhile to hear from her when I sent  a different one many months back

I sent her a message a few months ago and still no word.  I sure hope all is okay and she's just busy with other things.  I miss her and the little guy that waves that seems to be missing now.

You are right...its missing....I thought of it as Verity's personal talisman

Was having a great day yesterday. Did a Body Attack class (FUN!) stayed on plan...until 8 p.m. then ate toblerone and pistatcios. No idea why...just did. I was alone and bored, and tired. Ridiculous behaviour, especially when i'm trying to take off a few pounds (and yet, I was down a pound this morning....that messes with my head). IF I included my calories from exercise, I was still under calorie goal...still pissed at myself.  

ANYWAY...

Out for Christmas lunch today. Not sure what i'm having for the lunch...protein and salad i'm sure

B: goat yogurt, nsa pudding, holy crap cereal

L: just looked it up, i'm having hanger steak and salad

D: unsure yet.

Take care everyone.

Kelly don't you hate that you know you shouldn't do it but we still do it anyway and then hate ourselves after.  It will be an ongoing battle.  Thankfully you work out so that offsets some of it.  This time of year is the hardest.  Don't beat yourself up.  You have done amazing.

Thanks Monica. The last surgery really pushed me back, and the fact that i'm in limbo with the next surgery and not specifically training...AND the time of year. I just feel like it's all adding up. I didn't have what I planned at lunch, but didn't do too bad either (their special was cornish hen wrapped in prosciutto  - to DIE), and I had a few bites of other desserts, instead of one full one of my own.

I do beat myself up, it's part of who I am. I wish I could be calmer, but i'm just not. I also have learned from my fellow vets not to get complacent. It's ends up in regain....and it's SO easy to regain now that i'm coming up to three years out. As many have told me in the past...losing is the party....maintenance is a *****!

This is going to be a lifelong struggle/journey for us.  We just need to be diligent and I think stay focused and involved in this website.  It is a great source for support!

I hear you about the consequences. I have had some bad eating lately and the scale did not more at first. I was happy and scared when it finally did go up

Yep...it's easy to fall back into where we once came from!
