Well….let’s try to bond together on this and move on. I hate those nasty numbers on the scale. I stepped on my scale once last week, at the end of a day of an all out binge…and it said 198…yikes. I was down to 191 a couple of days later. I hate those numbers. I stil haven’t gotten completely back on track yet. tonight, I work , and then I am off til next week so I am planning to get some focus. I have put in almost 80 hours in the last 8 or 9 days. that just does not work in my life, and you can see what I do when I am stressed…….eat at every available opportunity, large amounts of calories.
OK…what is it going to take to get us on track. We can do this…sometimes I think we are enabling eachother more than helping. UGH!! WE must conquer this together!
…it does sometimes appear to be an enablers forum here.
It’s a tough call though….because food stress and food depression can be so easily triggered… even by words we may or may not interpret correctly.
I don’t want to be cold and callused towards anyone because that might send someone into a doughnut dive, but on the other hand…I don’t want to continually act as though …”ohh it’s ok…I understand..”
Maybe it’s time we don’t understand why the other is slipping up and/or failing. . maybe it’s time we have no patience for anything that can be used as an excuse… maybe our patience and understanding needs to give way to perseverance and resolve!
it’s a tough call… we’re all a little different and people have been debating the use of Operant Conditioning for awhile.
I guess what I’m saying is… one day words could enable me, but on another day…those exact same words may be what I need to hear….
tough call…
we need to quit making excuses though ….IT”S CRAP!
If there isn’t time to work out, then so be it…. this doesn’t mean we need to eat the way we do.
..and…if we have to eat the so-called “BAD FOOD”, then we should cut the quantity down…
..blah…blah..blah…blah..blah…
btw… today I ate a huge burger, a large sweet coffee, a big-ass Red Bull, a bag of sugar pills known as skittles,, a bag of magnificent M&M’s , a couple of snack size cheese cake bites, and a piece of Sweet Potato Pie…
….alright…. I’m done whining.. I’ll be back with some words of success at a later date..
Until then, I need a glass of sweet tea and a bag of extra butter popcorn…

I couldn’t agree with you more…
