Re: Anyone else off the wagon over the holiday weekend?

[Guest guest]

My fiance' brought over chocolate chip cookies. When it comes to

chocolate, I can't say no, so sad, but true. The cookies are out of

the house today so I'm back to being good again:)

We used to have Monday confessions for awhile on this group. It's

not uncommon to fall or hang off the wagon, but the important thing

is that you get back on. You are doing that so congratulations!

It was a close one folks, but I climbed back up. Yesterday I got in

my 6 healthly meals and a cardio workout (although not in the

morning, but I did follow the instructions to not eat for 3 hours

before and 1 hour afterward). Today I got up early and made it into

the gym before work and I have my meals packed and ready to go.

Heidi, it hit me later in the week. Me and my sister enjoyed our a

free meal together on our free day saturday...so I should have been

satisfied for the week, right? We had sweets during the meal, but I

noticed even after the meal I continued to crave sweets.

So come tuesday I had a family member upset me and also just got down

about some circumstances in my life. In the past being upset equaled

feeding my pain--so I did just that! I fought it, but the pain won.

So both tuesday and wednesday I ate poorly. I think I just felt

discouraged and wanted to feel better. But of course using food to

feel better is NOT a healthy choice or even a good one. I kept

telling myself my free day was just a few days away...but I couldn't

seem to hold out for it.

But today I'm picking myself up and eating " clean " again. I sure

hope those two days didn't damage my progress too much...but I seem

to gain weight easily so we'll see. I'm not gonna get

discouraged...i'm just gonna try harder.

But this isn't unusual for me. I tend to get discouraged, in one way

or another, whenever I get to the sixth week of ANY diet! It just

seems to happen over and over that way for me. I guess I just need

to work through that roadblock and keep going.

So don't feel alone Heidi, I fell off the wagon too! But I'm back on

and sounds like you are too! That's what matters!!!
