It is hard, and no its not just you. Your body is screaming for its own way, having a temper tantrum For the headache try eating a piece of fruit maybe an orange. Drink some water.

Putting it on paper is a great idea..the good the bad and the ugly...helps you to see patterns in your eating habits. Some people say that it helps them to be accountable.

Topic: It's just a number!!

So here I go, this is a big step for me because for years no one knew my weight. Even at my highest 346 pounds just before surgery none of my family knew I was that heavy. Today I do not have a problem sharing my weight with them but I am not happy about it.


The weight that I am today is not what I signed up for the day I allowed the Dr to re arrange my insides. I am not proud of what has happened in the last several years with the weight gain, so I am hoping that if I put it out there for the world to see ......maybe........

I am also going to start recording what I eat, I will record everything even if its 3-4 slices of pizza or a big slab of cake there may even be days when I eat nothing I will record that too. I will start this in a few days I need to syc myself up for this one.

 

When I got on the scale this morning after being sick for two days the scale said 263.5 I know it is water loss but I will do almost anything to keep it from going up!

Feb   10  2010  -  263.5

EXERCISE

Today I am feeling almost 100% hopped on the scale and I'm down 8 pounds since Monday morning. Told my daughter the one that passed on the bug to us, she asked" what else would you like me to bring home". Losing 8 pounds in 2 days I was tempted to say I'll take a double dose this time. LOL

Felt well enough to go to the gym this morning...was really ticked that they have no hand sanitized dispensers around. Made a point of bringing this to their attention and when I’m out today I will pick one up for the gym.

Does any one use the Thread Climber at their gym? I just spent 60 mins on it and burned just over 700 cal, Feel like one of the Biggest Losers

I said I was going to start posting my weight toda,I thought I woud put it in my signature but I think a new thread would be better that way  if anyone else feels like joining it will be all together.

Topic: Day 13

Not sure where Free is,  so I guess I’ll start this thread.

 

Day 13 Overcoming Cravings

Prove to yourself that you don’t need to give into cravings…take control of them and make them go away.

Watch for your cravings and monitor them, they may not happen today or tomorrow but they will happen and when they do use the anti craving techniques provided in this chapter as well as the Craving Rate Chart (pg 129).

I have not had any cravings since I was sick so I will not do this today but I will spend this day going over this information so I am armed and dangerous when it tries to sneak up on me.

Free, that is awesome you fought the fight and won

How many gr of protein a day do you eat? I find if I am eating enough protein I don't usually have a lot of cravings. But if I have lots of carbs I'm doomed.
I'm very proud of you for leaving that stuff at the store.

As for me I am babying my pouch and eating very little...I am surprised that I am not hungry at all. I am not drinking near as much as I should. Tomorrow I will increase my protein coffees to 2 instead of 1 i'm doing now, and i'll try to get back to drinking the 80oz I usually take in.
Also tomorrow I will start to record my weight here on a daily basis, I have tickers on other sites but I do not share my weight on a regular basis. I am helping this will help me a great deal.

I will eventually start to share what I eat every day as well.


I have not been doing all that well on my To Do List, needing a bit of a kick in the butt.

Well right now I feel proud of myself and well..a little tiny bit deprived and angry. I went to the drugstore to get some cold meds for my son and I was drawn to the candy, snack and ice cream aisle..(I HAD to go that way...right???) First I looked for a 'nutrition bar'  or protien bar which is really a candybar with 'nutrients' ..then I migrated to the sugar free fat free ice cream..yum ..ooohh look at those new flavors..then the sugar free chocolate...only 30 calories a piece..righ?? ..RIGHT??? I could 'slowly and mindfully' (like the book said) eat JUST one tonight...ummmm....and hide the rest. Think of all the calories I burned today when I worked out. Surely this wont hurt. I've binged in the past and I still lost weight cause I was exercising! Right???......Well I had a CONVERSATION with MYSELF for 10 whole minutes in the drugstore tonight. I am proud to say that all confections and snacks remained in the store. I am now safely at home drinking the rest of my crystal light...and and about 40 minutes from now if I still want something sweet I will eat a tiny bit of Special K chocolate delight cereal slightly moistend with skim milk and extra spenda!
