dieting in MY DREAMS!!!

haha, so this is funny:

lately I've been having these dreams - or nightmares really - where i'm locked in a candy or cupcake store and i can't stop myself from pigging out. Last night it was fanny may and chocolate covered nuts. I always wake up thinking, OMG i ruined my diet again! WHYYYYYYYY! and have to shake myself out of it. Anything like that happen to anyone else?

yes, but its with cigarettes, sometimes food, but mostly cigarettes!!!!

That hasn't happened to me yet! Do you take a meal or a day off each week? Even if you don't do it every week, every few weeks might help you stop having those crazy dreams. I have a free night on the day I weigh myself, and I have whatever I've been craving for the week. I have a feeling this Saturday it's going to be my favorite local pizza buffet. I've heard it's good for your metabolism to have a little boost like that every once in a while too.

My weigh in day is my cheat day, too - I figure I've already weighed for the week & whatever I eat that day (tho its usually not much) won't directly affect my weight for the next week. Glad to know I'm not alone.

My only dieting nightmare was one where I was in a room full of people and I get on this scale and a "loud" robotic voice says YOU ARE FAT!! I awoke instantly!! This happened years ago and I still can hear that voice, it was soooo real!!! But you know, I'm not fat anymore! LOL

I've never had the nightmares but I do have running dreams. You see I would LOVE to be able to run for an hour without feeling out of breath after the 1st minute.

At times I dream that I am running as a workout. It feels so real and soooooo good

I started jogging a year ago - it was so bad, i'd go out with a friend and we'd only make it like 30 secs before we'd have to walk again. then one minute jog, walk four...and guess what? I just finished my first FULL marathon on sunday!!! I'm still beside myself! I always say the hardest part of the whole journey was the first 30 seconds a year and a half ago

Congratulations!!! I have to start walking and jogging so that I can work myself up to running. I need to get out of this slump.

One time I dreamt I had eaten a large marshmallow and when I had awoke my pillow was gone.
