I had Wendy's for dinner and still came in under my goal for today.
Feeling better today and hopefully I'll feel up to doing my HIIT tomorrow. If not, I'll at least get on the treadmill at lunch.

I eat at least four chocolate chip cookies everyday... To top it off I'm super in love with chocolate... And find myself craving for it all day

Confession:
For the first time in 52 days I was in the red. Self-medicating with food didn't work. I took a lousy day and made it worse. I am so mad at myself.
AARGGHH!!
52 days?! Now that's something to aspire to! I've never made it past 6, I think. Haha. Consider it a reminder that food is not the answer, and move on. No big deal.0 -

@JPW1990 I know it isn't rare. Have many a friends who upon getting divorced suddenly find themselves in the company of much younger company. I shake my head as a older guy, but honestly there is a LOT of draw to it. Mostly it can capture that feeling of fleeting youth. Ya know, Jerry Lee Lewis "Middle Aged Crazy, trying to prove he still can...".
I am pretty grounded, but who knows. Was just thinking out loud. No plans for divorce or younger women at this point.
honestly, this is why at 34 i'm pretty sure i'm gonna be alone.
totally not judging you (after my parents divorced my dad spent years dating younger gals and then five years ago married a girl that is ONE year older than ME. i judge him
)
anytime i go out i can't help but feel like i don't belong. there are young, stunning girls EVERYwhere, i can't imagine anyone settling for my older, pudgy butt. plus i'm also pretty sarcastic and b*tchy.
but seeing how i'm the reason my current relationship tanked, i really don't have anyone else to blame.
it's still kinda disappointing though.
I would too!
Don't give up on finding someone, I'm only 29 and sometimes it's hard since most gals my age are married or in committed relationships but most the time I'm happy as I have the rest of my life to be with someone may as well enjoy my "singleness" now. You'll find someone!! You are very pretty!
Agree that you are very pretty, plus you're pretty funny going off your additions to this thread and you will meet someone. I met my husband when I was 35 and got married at 37. I seriously thought there was something wrong with me. I used to tell myself I was "fundamentally unloveable". Everyone else said it would happen for me, they were right and I was wrong.
I must be an anomaly. I was reading through the past few days posts and wondering how people can only come up with a couple of things positive to say about themselves. And, why would anybody think that because they don't have somebody that there is something wrong with them? I never really thought I had super high self esteem, but I've always known my worth.
I am speaking for myself, but... you look around and all you see is "happy" couples and people dating, and there... is... nothing... going on with you. And I know I shouldn't compare myself to others, but I see some people who are just awful human beings and they are with someone. And then it's like "how come they can find someone, and I can't?" So you start to think there is something wrong with yourself and you must be completely unattractive.
I used to feel that way. And I am going to completely honest here. I am not a pretty woman. I am ok. When I am thin I have a great body. Think Marilyn Monroe at her skinniest without the breasts (A cup all the way). But women not as attractive as me ( which takes a lot as I am not pretty), heavier than me, no where near as smart as me, or as accomplished get guys. But somewhere along the way I realized I am ok. I still get down when I gain weight. Hate I am not pretty. That I am the least attractive female in my family. But I am pretty amazing. And if others don't realize it it's their loss. I am not going to settle. And I am a lot older than you. I hope you find the love of your life. I still hope I do. But if I don't it's ok. I am still a pretty amazing person. I don't need a guy to prove that to me. And I never will.
I am getting to this point. I'm okay being single for the most part. I like being able to do my own thing, when I want. There are just some days when I have lower self esteem, although they are happening less and less.
And for what it's worth, you do seem like an amazing, funny person, so just continue being your amazing self

Absolutely you can join in I use a food scale too. It can be eye opening to see what an actual serving of something is! (and most of the time it's disappointing lol) 0 -

Confession:
I use multiple types of lotions/moisturizers every day. Right now I'm on a "light" rotation.
I use two types on my face (an anti-wrinkle and a moisturizer with sunscreen)
I exfoliate my body and use various types on various parts. I use amlactin on the bikini line and back of thighs where I tend to get bumps/ingrown hairs. I use a thick lotion on calves/elbows. I use a smooth body lotion everywhere else.
Edited to correct a typo.0 -

Ditto to both of you.
Edited because I posted a blank post.

I feel like I have to look better than my boyfriends ex, who had recently lost weight, i know it's silly.0

Confession... I am about to eat almost a whole head of cooked cabbage sans any oil or fatty stuffs. Just a quick spray of Pam before I threw it in the pan. At least I'll be full afterwards.
Mmm, throw in some mustard seed, lemon, and coriander that sounds like a dish I make from an Indian food cookbook (some other ingredients too, but you get the idea.) Yum.

Is it bad that I feel the need to look better than my boyfriends ex?
On top of that I just want to be confident in myself and feel comfortable in my own skin.0 -
I'm a vegetarian but I can't manage to lose weight. I stopped eating bread and I barely eat any protein0

I hear ya! I'm single and I've honestly never been to that thread! Seriously search my name you won't find it! Not a fan, I'm here for my health not to find a date
Well now you are not really single...
But I am and I can't stand when people start all the overt flirting and innuendo. I leave those threads immediately. That is not why I am here. If I wanted that I would go to match.com.
Haha no technically I'm spoken for of course but there's no ring on my finger! (This doesn't mean I'd ever cross boundaries of course just saying I'm unmarried and there's no box to check "boyfriend" or in a relationship when it asks single, married, divorced, or widowed- so I check the single box every time)
Yeah, I find that one weird as so do I, and I've been with my boyfriend for 11 years.0 -

Ooh I'm always interested in good erotica!
I'm catching up 500 odd posts, so way behind. Had a horrific migraine yesterday and ate like a pig, very shameful. And as I went to throw away the remaining doughnuts in the car park this morning (so my partners wouldn't see the box), I decided to eat them instead. Then this afternoon, going to pick up cereal pots for breakfast at work, I came across hot fudge sundae and s'mores poptarts. So I bought them. I blame this thread wholly and solely for the fact I ate 3 tarts. I threw the 4th out the window.
You can get the different flavours over here?? Hope you feel better soon.
Yes! I was resigned to not trying them (and therefore saving myself the calories) but if you have a B&M near you....they are in there.

I tried match.com once and they literally refused my membership! I got a msg that said they didn't have anyone that would match my profile/questionnaire info, and to try again at a later date!
It's hysterical and depressing all at once!
Now you have to tell us whats in your profile!

I always have to tick the single box too. There is no box for my relationship status. It makes me sad.
