POOP

I am feeling sort of poopie..... I over did my caloric intake today... I took in 2000 calories and 40 grams of fat. I ate until I got that gross feeling when I was fill, and then I picked a little more....and before you know it.. after dinner I was at 2000 calories. I didn't eat anything that was unhealthy, just too much of the healthy stuff. I felt defeated, inflated, poofie and weak - then I stepped away and decided to just stop and clean up the house. Now I feel much better, I am going to go for a walk, and I am not going to eat any more tonight. I have to weigh in tomorrow, and I have this sinking feeling that I am going to be up. i don't know about you guys, but when I gain, it becomes soooo much easier to throw in the towel. I have to make a plan tonight, so I don't go koo koo tomorrow morning... I think I will... Wear a super cute outfit, and the best shoes in my wardrobe. I will wake up with purpose, and I promise not to overdo it. I promise to make myself feel good, by eating healthy foods, at the designated times, in designated quantities. I won't let this weigh in, no matter what, make me feel like it's an excuse to let go and eat like crap.

  Good for you girl.  Just remember we are all going to screw up some days, we just can't let that be our downfall!  Way to get back on that horse. 

Hun, all you did yesterday is not lose at the worst! If you gained, it may be more about what you ate than how much.  All of us feel that way when we gain, it is tempting to give it all up, BUTTTTTTT...in reality that is a big PHAT COP-OUT to wallow and eat more and be all down about it.  We should only give ourselves a hug or reach out for a cyber hug like you just did...and know that obesity is a chronic condition.  There will be setbacks..plan for them and re-route when you know you are going to a place that is always slippery. Someone wise yesterday reminded me to stop when I feel hungry and have that open the fridge feeling...just STOP. Ask why am i hungry...when was the last time I ate...did I depend on some flimsyass protein bar four hours ago...then my hunger makes sense. CALMLY go prepare/buy something healthful to eat. Better yet, always have something around that you can job into that mouth - geez we all act like we are not going to feel hunger, then when there's only crap around, we are shocked that we busted out and ate pure crap!  Just cuz it was there.... Awwww, ya didn't do so bad. Chin up, today will be better!

Okay everyone.. I did it.. I go ton the scale... but it was for not, because it said I had lost 4 pounds the first three times I weighed myself and then the 4th time, it said I had lost 6 pounds. It's official... I can not get an an accurate reading from this scale, and I will be purchasing a new one after work today. In hindsight, I think it was good, because I do not have an excuse to eat like a pig today, becuae I don't feel down about my weigh in. I still got up early, threw on a cute outfit, did my hair (so cute), makeup, and threw on my strappy black platform sandals. I am looking great, and feeling great to. I will probably weigh myself on my new scale tomorrow morning, and I hope it's all good, but even if it's not, screw it, I am still going to keep moving forward. Thanks for your words of encouragement you guys.... It makes a girl feel better to know she isn't out there alone in these feelings...

We're all allowed 'off' days, chickita.  But you're bouncing back beautifully.  I wish I could bounce back like that.  Keep up the good spirits.
