    Ate a whole pint of Ben and Jerry's Half Baked- feeling super guilty since I didn't log it but was totally worth it

    Found my first post...

    The last meal I cooked was Saturday - breakfast. I ate out all weekend, and it shows on the scale. Not sure I even care. It was a good weekend!

    I eat and drink so much over the weekend I spoil all my hard work in the week
    :'(
    never ending cycle.

    You've just named the problem. Step 2 is making a plan to fix it. What is one thing you change today, tomorrow and Sunday that will help keep the work going?
    A walk, a project, phoning a friend? What does it take to keep your mind off food. I cross stitch or read a real book when I get munchy. I don't want chip grease on my project or my pages.

    I confess I'm a little nervous today, I'm starting a swimming routine to replace my gym routine and I'm afraid I'm going to go to the pool and stand out as the worst swimmer there, as I can't put my face in the water so I'm not very "professional" at the swimming thing.

    The only way to get better is to practice. I hate swimming, but it's better than forced inactivity. @Italian_Buju is a swimmer. Got any tips, Nicole?

    I remember reading that and thinking that's my life, not a confession. This year one of my goals is to eat out much less. So far, so good.

    I feel the need to confess and this seems as good a place as any (particularly as if I told my super healthy work colleague he'd most definitely judge me - in fact it might be hard for anyone not to judge)

    Last night I actually ate so much that I was sick! A definite new low for me and I'm disgusted in myself, particularly as I've been doing so well. Not sure what I'm most disgusted by - the fact I ate 'till I threw up ....or that my first thought afterwards was 'at least that's some calories gone!'

    I hang my head in shame :(

    On a more positive note- congratulations on making a year (very nearly)of this thread!

    I've done that...and thought the same thing. Absolutely no judgment here!

    None here either!

    I've never ate till I threw up, but I know there's been at least 3-4 that I've had to lay down after eating a ton of calories.

    My sister refers to it as my food hangover.

    No judgment, but please don't do it again. :-) Go find some Fresh Prince of BelAir on Netflix instead...it's still funny.

    Not a bad idea - I love the Fresh Prince :) I'm gonna try my best not to let it happen again - too much pain both physically & mentally!

    You folk are all so lovely with the non judgement stuff aren't you? It's rare to see on internet forums. No wonder you've managed to keep this going :)

    On the positive side - made myself go home and do insanity on my lunch break. Feel like dying now but also pleased I did it instead of wallowing in failure.

    The pain of eating like that is a great instiller of self-discipline. And it takes me a long time to forget a "food hangover".

    It is taking everything in me to hold myself together.. Next Friday will be the one year anniversary of my Mom's death. Somehow it still hasn't hit me as being real...like, I know she's gone, but something in me just will not accept it. I don't know how to move on. It doesn't help that 15 days after losing her, my 15 year old dog(my first "child") died. The past year has just been a giant roller coaster. I have never been an angry person and have never turned to food for comfort until all of this. I have thought so many times about going to speak to someone...but I just can't bring myself to do it.
    I have been lurking this thread from day one..keeping up every day... and I am overwhelmed by all the support you show each other and the friendships that have formed. I feel like I've gotten to know you all through all of your confessions/comments/advice/jokes...and I can relate to so many of you. I guess I felt I could let it all out here.

    Sigh...

    This was my first post. Page 639 on May 20th. Natalie and Kellie were the first "regulars" to respond to me! <3
    I had 100 pages to go through too!

    A very deep first post. Xo

    In honor of my 8000th post and page 1700 I have changed my username. FYI.

    I noticed that! and yet quotes are still showing your as POFoster21

    Actually, I see Oberon21 in this quote... maybe older quotes before I changed don't change?

    Ah maybe. I thought they were new posts because your name/avatar was oberon

    I meant older as in seconds or days before I changed??

    You are Oberon WAY back in 1034 ;) I haven't come across any quotes tho.

    And yay for running. You can do 7-10 miles for me. lol. If I were allowed, today is my 10 miler day. I'll have to settle for walking a few miles on the slow, uninclined treadmill (I'm allowed that and slow swimming as per my dr. )

    I confess to being done one leg warmer that I made WAY too big so its a thigh high and is way bulky, but should be warm. Took me a week, Even wove in my ends. Now I have to start the second one. I think its awesome. If I figure out how to post pics I will.

    I'm nursing a foot injury, plantar fasciitis that won't go away. I used to run about 25-30 miles a week, now I don't run at all. I have filled the cardio void with swimming, hitting the heavy bag, spinning, and HIIT, and of course, eating less to remain in maintenance (which is unfortunate)! But nothing takes the place of running, it was basically my church and psychiatrist's couch. I have been doing rehab and wearing shoe inserts, and have a follow up with a podiatrist in early March, so hopefully I will be back in time for spring.

    I hear that really hurts. It is good that you found other activities that you can do.

    THIS! Exactly. Except, I have Spinal Stenosis, and herniated disks and I need to wait for the neurosurgeon to decide whether or not I need surgical decompression of the spine. :( no HIIT, no heavy bags, I can't even bend and tie my sons skates.
    I was up to 25 miles a week, as well as 10+ miles of walking as well (I live in a tiny town, so I don't drive anywhere) And so this inactivity thing just SUCKS.

    I'm very scared that since I can't be as active as I was I'm going to regain all the weight I lost plus friends. Or I'm going to lose muscle tone, and be skinny flabby

    Oh that would be so frustrating. does the doctor have you going to Physical therapy? does he have a list of things you can do?

    We invited people over to watch the Super Bowl but got a nasty snow storm so barely anyone came. I spent the last 3 days eating little weinies and jalepeno popper dip for dinner. It's finally all gone but now I have to actually cook tonight.

    It's taken me 2 days to read through this whole post (at work) because of having to click to another window when someone walks by. It was totally worth it.

    I have a lot of Taylor Swift on my running playlist but I'm really not ashamed.

    I bought Easter candy half off today at Wal-Mart & ate two of the Cold Stone Creamery Eggs for a total of around 1,400 calories & not counting any of it.

    I'm thinking this was my first confession.

    Of course it's about food :p.

    Mine was April.

    You are starting something new. It is ok to be less than perfect and to make mistakes. Good luck.

    I have way too many trigger foods to mention here. I don't have my diary public mostly because I don't want to publicly admit when I am over my counts. I cannot leave things like pizza, Nutella or donuts nearby without eating them. I could eat pizza everyday but I don't like veggie pizza. So will order thin crust to cut back on some of the calories.

    My first post here- Feb. 2, 2015.....
