Getting back on the wagon

ok so i can't stop eating. i'm not hungry but everything i see goes in my mouth. last week i blamed it on my period. Now what's my excuse? grrr i can't get back with the program. i was doing so well for like a month and then all of a sudden i'm off the wagon with no hope of return. if you recall a few weeks ago i was intent on losing my last 30 lbs. That fire that i had then is gone. how do i rekindle it post period?

That fire is not gone just side tracked!  Yup its me your favorite cheerleader!!!! You need to get that journal out and start logging what you are eating and what is going on inside of your heart and head and take ownership of it.  You are not a quitter!  Not letting you do this!  You have worked so hard and come too far to not succeed. Something is making you eat, some issue or another. Address it and move on. Grrr you are not the only one who can growl. You know what you need to do food-wise.  What worked for you before will work again.  Plan your meals like you did when you first got this done and go back to the starting gate and log your foods, plan your meals and take it from there.  I know you can do it and so do you. No excuses accepted.

I did get a chuckle out of your post, and you are right I do have some stuff going on.  Emotionally, I'm on a freakin roller coaster, but I can't use that as an excuse.

Ok.. buck up kid.  I will begin writing down everything again ( incuding emotions)

Thx doll!

Not sure if you have the money to do this... but go pick out something awesome looking that you can wear once you lose that last 30 pounds...

and then hang it so you see it every day...

Good luck and I know you can do it girl!

I think I could probably find something fabulous that wasn't an arm and a leg cost wise. 

Have a dream about waking up weighing 400+#'s ... That ought to scare the bjesus out of you.

Yup, that would do it I think.

Blame it on this stinking cold weather that just will not go away!! Like you I want to lose 30 more and I have been stuck at my current weight for months. And yes, I know its not really the weather - its me - but I haven't put any on and as long as you're not gaining that's a good thing.

Maybe once this weather straightens out and we all feel like getting out and moving again we'll start losing again!

I can only hope!

good for you right attitude get back on track even if it means keeping an honest diary on what you feel and what you eat and take ownership of it. No excuses accepted girlfriend.
