Back On Track Together

NEED SUPPORT

Eileen, it just helps me so much to know I'm not alone.  About 10 days or so ago, I started back on track--made my "confession" here on the BOTT board--and did wonderful for about 3 days.  Then a really full wkend--full of carb-laden food--happened, and, well . . . another week and another wkend have gone by, and I have to start back on track once again!!

I sure do wish I dumped.  Yes, as you said, it doesn't totally prevent screwing up over the course of the whole day, but I still wish I had that semi-barrier!!  I do know exactly what I need to be doing, so I'm ready to start again. 

Just wanted to add my "thanks for posting--and welcome to BOTT" along w/ everyone else.  I love it here on this board.

Always,
Jo

Justjo,  You know you can do it... Just dust yourself off and go at it again....................

Update:  I weighed myself last night....oh boy what a shock.......... are you ready for this::::::::::::::::::   293.50 I nearly fell over...... My sister said her scale is off.... I asked about 30lbs.... less right... she said only 6 pounds less.  but still .... I looked in the mirror and without
sounding sick to all of you.... I told myself its time to take care of you.... put you first..... But I
must admit I have e been freaking out all day..... my sister had wls in 2003 and she has gained
about 45lbs. back... she is freaking out also..... Our father went thru cancer and since has passed away... so since then we both really did not care much.... about our weight... sorry to say... yesterday I went and updated my multivitamin,  bought C.  PROTEIN DRINKS, 
today I went food shopping to get ready for the week.  I am proud to say its the first time I went to the supermarket and did not buy anything bad for me.... what a revelation..............
That's not to say I am totally back on track... but like I said one step at a time.... I am getting myself ready.... believe me in 5 yrs this is the most I was able to move forward...... I know that
sounds sad and it is..... but TODAY IS A NEW DAY..............I will keep you posted.... BUT THANK YOU FOR LISTENING AND ALL THE SUPPORT.. IT HAS MADE ALL THE DIFFERENCE.   THANKS EILEEN

Oh Eileen, I can just FEEL your horror when you stood on that scale!!  I hope tomorrow is "THE" day for a new beginning--for you and certainly for me.  You are one step ahead of me in that you've been to the store to stock up for getting back on track.  After returning from a busy, hideously delicious food-fest in my home town for the wkend, I was totally wiped out today and hardly moved a muscle after we got home about noon.  So I've got to do some grocery planning & shopping tomorrow morn.

Here's to a good Monday for all of us!

Always,
Jo
