Fell of off the wagon any days this week?

Hi Everyone,

So yesterday was a good day(in the beginning).  I went to class after work and ate a reasonable dinner.  I managed to stay within my calorie range but I went to bed so late last night and I was so hungry as it had been over 5 hrs since my dinner.  So I decided to eat some ceral(frosted mini wheats with skim milk).Not bad right? WELL that's if I had eaten the correct serving size.  I had 2 huge bowls which probably added up anywhere between 700-1000 cals of just cereal!  I should have just eaten a slice of pizza.  :( 

New day but I'm feeling the urge for something sweet or some bread or something.  I hate when I fall off the wagon.  It's so hard to get back on.  So far today I've been doing good so wish me luck.

BTW, how is everyone coming along with their diets?

well ive been very sick with no appetite at all since teusday night.

so..teusday i was really under cause i didn eat dinner..then wednesday and thursday and probably today ill be way over because im gonna eat what sounds good because of my lack of appitetite..i actually had 4 buscuits from the can yesterday...and sonic drivein food the past two days...probably not the best for being sick..but slushy is the only thing thats helping my throat at all

yay for justification for eatting bad! (not really, oh well..three days wont kill me)

hopefully tomorrow ill feel good enough to actually cook or something...currently the thought of anything i have (chicken, couscous, brown rice, peas, green beans, etc) are making me gag...so..yeah.

I'm not beating myself up..i dont get sick often. so its not like im resorting back to nasty fast food forever.

After coming home from the gym, I had a huge craving for croissants. I stopped on the way home at a fast food joint and got a breakfast sandwich . . . and regretted it. The amount of fat, particularly saturated fat, was apalling! However, it's ok to have a slip every once in a while, just so that you get right back on track as soon as you realize what happened ;)

Feels like every day this week.... :(

Oh, did I ever! On Wednesday night my husband and I headed to our favorite mexican restaurant- one who's menu and nutrition value I know very well and account for - but when we got there we could smell chinese from the brand new buffet that opened up 2 doors down and decided to stop in and give it a try...

Two plates later of General Tso chicken, fried rice, eggrolls and other samplings too numerous to name... and I was one sodium/msg soaked little girl, sleepy as the afternoon after thanksgiving, with a stomachache that wouldn't quit!

It was my first official fall since beginning this program 5 weeks ago (8 pounds lost to date), so I am trying not to be too hard on myself... but I have to admit that I was taken aback by how physically ill I felt afterwards - which had nothing to do with guilt, and everything to do with how little my body appreciated my binge.

Thinking back, I used to feel like that 2-3 days a week after eating out or hitting some greasy take out joint- but since getting more control on my portions I have really begun to take advantage of that overall energy/general well being that it has brought.

I guess my body has been trying to tell me something all this time, and I just wasn't listening.

The first couple weeks of this program went GREAT for me.  I lost 5 pounds, which was a nice thing to do especially right after the holidays, but since then I have been at a stand still.  I will gain a couple, lose a couple and back and forth and I can't seem to get past my barrier.

My boyfriend moved in with me, and he wants to lose weight as well, but things have been very stressful with him and work and his crazy hours, that I just find it easier to let him eat what he wants instead of the healthy stuff, which in turn makes me eat the junk.

I really need to get back on the horse and push myself to drop this weight, but how do I get motivated and how do I prevent myself from giving into temptation????

The dog fell down the stairs last night.  This morning he wouldn't move.  He's big and old.  Called in appointment for the vet. Called off work. (part time) Then youngest child throwing up.  Couldn't get 100 pound dog in van.  Didn't eat breakfast.  Got dog to vet child in their bathroom, paid $200 out the nose. Dog may of blow out knee.  $2,500 surgery if that is the case.  Starving!  Leave and stop off at McDonalds 10:15am and get a Bacon Egg and Cheese McGriddle and Mr. Pipp.  Child throws up in van on way home.  Having birthday party for other child tonight.  Having pizza and chocolate fondue party.  Good part I didn't eat all of the McGiddle.  :)  I am having a bad day. 

I fell off last night and today.. i need to get with it!

Every day this week.

Even today =/

BUT, I am realizing it more now since I've started this site.  These forums are a big help.  Tomorrow there is no work, just me at home, so I won't be tempted by junk all around.  And I won't want to eat  out.  (I am a big homebody.)

Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of my life.  This weekend will hopefully give me the momentum I need for a big push.
