What's on Your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?
I hate making excuses, but my WHOLE LIFE is still F-ed up right now. We are still living out of boxes, 98% of our stuff is in storage, we are sleeping in my parent's basement, I cant work out for various reasons (this is a BIG factory in my depression/eating habits).
We found out everything is all set with our loan, they have everything they need, now we have to wait WEEKS for the bank to get their **** together. So we are supposed to close on February 4th. We talked to or loan officer and BEGGED him to try and bump our closing up!! I hope he can do it. I want OUT and back into my regular routines!!! ugh
Even our boys have been acting up more and being naughty more often. Poor babies (well 4 and 2) dont even know why they are being like that, their whole lives are crazy right now also!
Try to give yourself a break. Beating yourself up right now is only going to make you more stressed out and more depressed. Keep trying and working the plan as best you can, but if you **** up, it's honestly not the end of the world. YOU know you're not going to entirely let things go. You won't be walking away and gaining it all back. You are still fluctuating within a few pounds of your lowest weight. Things are going to get better, you will get back on trac****il then, keep chugging along. Hugs to you.
I have having the same problem. I do great all day, until the kids go to bed. Then it's just me and my husband watching TV, and I suddenly turn into a carbmonster. It's SO frustrating! I've just felt in a funk lately, not sure if it's the weather of what, but I need to figure it out! I'm thinking about asking my doctor about taking an additional D3 vitamin each week to help with my mood, and maybe that will at least help with some of the "blah" feeling...

I'm worth it!
Oh that's tough! Luckily I only have access to what I bring, or I'd have to walk across campus to the main hospital to reach the cafeteria. And at 10? it's not happening!
Hopefully things get bumped up with your closing, it's miserable feeling out of sorts. My kids are 16 months and 6, and when the routine is off for too long, they get cranky. Christmas break was tough on everyone. Good luck, hang in there!

I'm worth it!
My trouble time is right after work, the space between getting home and dinner. When I was a kid it was the "after school snack" now its the after work snack. Its totally out of habit and a means to decompress from my day--- prior to WLS I would consume SOOOO many calories in that short time span (and still eat dinner!). I'm more careful now-- but its a struggle.

I have to say, not weighing for a week really helped me get past my mental block. I actually lost 10 pounds which is crazy!!! I think I was so scared I was really done losing I was hard core. Now I am not really losing this week, but my bidy fat has gone down 2%
