Weight Loss	I think I need a virtual hug	Mar 29 2007 01:16 (UTC)	5
I am so proud of you! My birthday was last week and I did not do as well, had a piece of cake, but just a small one. I too had asked that they not do anything except cards, but they felt like I was being cheated they said. So you do deserve that hug a great big one and a big Horaaay too! Keep up the good work!

Yes I do work with some really good girls, I am very thankful for them. Glad I can help. I understand wanting to eat and not be hungry, I just like the taste and feel of food so I think about it and next thing I know I am going after it. Being here, part of BA has really helped me a lot. I hope we can help you to reach your goals too. Good luck tomorrow, I will be here when you get home! Enjoy your run!

Irothell, Goodness, sounds like we are all fighting a battle and know what I think together we can win. I am an afternoon eater, get home from work about 2pm and hubby leaves at 2:30 for work, another evening home alone, well not really I have a son that lives here but keeps very much to himself. I find myself heading to the kitchen and eating all sorts of things. I have found that if I stay downstairs near the kitchen I will eat, if I make myself come upstairs, get on the pc or the tred mill, I can make it to dinner. I am a kitchen manager in a school so food is always arround me. Thanks to the girls at work I am really doing well while I am there, they make me accountable. I am sure willing to help out in the afternoon if you need to chat just to let it all out. I am listing you among my friends if that is ok with you?

How in the world do you find the energy to exercise for 1 1/2 hours? I know I need to get on the tred mill, I know I need to use the weights, I know but I always seem to talk myself out of it, think I will start on Monday....well I am gonna try to start on Monday, get on that tred mill for a while anyway, even 5 min will at least be a start. I will I hope I will, ok I will.

Wow I was just reading some of the entries, welcome to all new to BA, I have not read here for a couple days, been very busy and then lost it this afternoon, really over did it, so now I am feeling terrible, weak and just angry with myself for not taking control. I had almost made it 2 weeks without a binge too, if I had made today and tomorrow. Ok I know start again, so tomorrow is day 1. I can do it with your support. Don't give up and I will try not to also. Thanks all and good luck

I have to admitt that yesterday though I did not binge really, I had a very high calorie day over 3500....I am very ashamed that I fell pray to all the temptations. I have to stay out of restraunts don't I, that is my downfall, hard to find low cal, and good things to eat out. I did have more exercise yesterday also so that helps doesn't it? I know I am making excuses, I am gonna get stronger I really am. Good Luck all, I know we can whip this! Thanks for being here for me!

Guess I should not beat myself up over the M&Ms since I put them down after about 3/4 cup. and stayed away from them the rest of the day. Tomorrow will be a test, we usually eat out on weekends, I'll need to be on my guard. Wish me luck.

Well it got my mind off them till now, darn now I want them again, no I am not gonna give in, gonna stay up here and work on my CC log. I need to cut down on the sodium, hard on the blood preasure, but one thing at a time, one day at a time. Take care and good luck all!

Today is almost half gone and I am doing well so far, well as far as binging I am. I just did a post on CC and found out my breakfast was too many calories, so I am just having a salad for lunch. This is my first day on my own, Hubby has been home since Christmas and I don't start back to work until the ninth. Alone time for me is a killer, I have to stay busy or I start thinking food. I am going to treat myself to having my nails done in a while, so the afternoon is spoken for. I just hope I can make it till Hubby is home and then it is easier to not just sit and eat. I will make a healthy low cal dinner for us he too has to watch his eating habits since he is diabetic. Wish me luck. Will check in later in the day. MardyKay

Herb teas are great, I really enjoy the flavored ones like white/peach, it is almost good to binge on, if there is such a thing, I have tried the water trick when I want to eat, it just does nothing for me, but I can enjoy some herb tea and wait it out. I am much like you, afternoons and evenings are hard for me and I sometimes have had too much before I even realize I ate. I am just realizing that I am a binger so support to get control is a big issue with me right now. One day at a time sometimes is too hard, I am proud when I make it thru an afternoon. Thanks for starting this, I really think it may be my break-thru.
