    I've been over (by a lot) every day this week. Feeling sick and consoling myself with chocolate even though I of course logically know that I'd feel better with some vitamins in me instead!

    I went shopping on my lunch break and spent $100 on pants primarily because I fit in a size 2. And I know Express pants run large, but my vanity was running larger.
    Spent too much time there and got back to work LATE. And didn't even eat lunch. :(


    Express is just in Adult sizes, not large. If you're a 2 there, then you're a 2. :)

    Be proud of your adult size fitting pants!!

    The juniors sizes are higher numbers. My jeans are 5's and 6's by my adult pants are 4's.

    Counting calories and macros makes me depressed and anxious. It reduces everything to its calories, so there's no enjoyment in anything. I often just want to eat something TASTY and not think/obsess/count/worry about it. But I do it, because not doing it won't help, even if I can't stand it.

    I've pretty much gained back everything I lost over the past year...

    BUT motivation to start ramping back up, I've got a 5K in May.

    I eat junk almost every day. Just in the last week I've had... chocolate, ice cream cones, ice cream bars, wafer cookies, jelly crepes, and pizza.

    And I lost 3lbs since last week. Best diet ever. Seriously, once you're past the 'I'm going to eat the whole box' problem, it's so much easier, and doesn't seem like a diet at all.

    I feel like Snickers still count as a good snack... xD

    Snickers and 3 musketeers.

    I came downstairs this morning with every intention of having a healthy breakfast of two scrambled eggs and a banana. I left the kitchen having eaten three chocolate chip cookies and some leftover spaghetti. No eggs, no banana. Oh well, I guess all I can do now is just move forward.

    I feel guilty that I can't have sweets in the house (supposedly for my family) without eating more than my fair share. I guess I need to find sweet things that they like and I hate.

    Not trying to hijack the thread, but I found a very yummy protein bar that's a Snickers bar. It's a Marathon Snickers protein bar, crunchy dark chocolate. It's only 150 cals and 9 grams of fat plus 11 grams of protein. I didn't think it would taste very good, but was happy to find that it was especially since I really love snickers.
    BTW the serving size is the entire bar and it's a decent size. If you come across them, try one. You may never go back to a real snickers bar again...lol :laugh:

    This is my second time coming on this site and I'm only back because I gained the one pound short of a stone back. (That's 15 pounds). To celebrate my decision to start again I hate chocolate mouse cake. Oui

    I had Applebee's today and it totaled twice my daily calorie goal. First time I have gone over and I am feeling very guilty.

    I was told by my doctor to lower my sodium intake a bit more to help in my weight loss efforts. And I was given the "foods to avoid" list. In it was stuff that I love- ham, cheese, bacon and sausage... So today I had a ham and cheese sandwich for lunch... Yeah...

    I confess this thread is making feel a bit better that there are REAL people on here that struggle daily just as much as I do. :drinker:

    A best friend will always forgive...well, unless you slept with their SO and in that case you are SOL! :)

    Been overly randy lately and it's driving me nuts.
    Still searching for something spiritual.
    I am becoming that 'old guy' who thinks most the youth of today is useless.
    I could TOTALLY eat a whole pizza right now.

    I thought so to so finally got a heart rate monitor...MUCH closer to realistic counts
    I'm not convinced that the p90x calorie burned calculator isn't highballing things severely =/

    I ate an entire chocolate bar, some cookies, and then nachos today. >:( I have no idea what got into me, but I just went on a junk food spree! I also freak out at the thought of processed/unhealthy food, so I've been anxious all day because of these indulgences.

    So my confession is... well I don't know if it is considered a confession or not but whatever:

    I feel completely un-motivated today, and super depressed. Got some bad news regarding my father and on top of that lost my bank card and had damn flat tire. Oh and my dear TOM decided to come for visit this am @ 5. I just want to sit on floor and :sad:

    I've lost a total of 28 lbs (from 225 to 197 and I'm 5'7" btw) but I don't see it and I still feel like a fat cow. Everybody keeps telling me how good I look but I since I don't see it I'm starting to have this complex that ppl are just saying that because they feel bad...

    *sigh* ok I'm going to shut up now

    I realized I gained back about 5 pounds of the weight I have been working hard to make go away. I then went downstairs and ate 4 waffles, Reese's peanut butter cups, and all the other snack food I could find today. I have been eating so much and have spent so much time thinking about stopping but not stopping. I just keep shoveling the food into my mouth. Some days I actually have the desire to change and other days I just feel like I am doomed to be fat.

    I'm tired of reading negative opinions about the different diets, fad or not, that people use to lose weight, What works for me may not work for others but Its working for me! lol

    I always reward myself with food and see myself already doing it with my 2 year old. Ugh! I hate the emotional relationship I have with food. I want to celebrate with food and I want to cry with food.

    Also, I wish I had an unlimited running budget (for racing) because I am addicted!!! Since I am a full time SAHM I feel like I have to ask my husband for permission. It's embarrassing. Though I wouldn't change being a SAHM for anything, having worked 60+ hours/week from my son being 3 months - 9 months.

    All I ate today was a bagel with herb and garlic cream cheese, and another for lunch. A activia yogurt and a tuna salad sandwhich on whole wheat. Instead of my usual 30 mins on the treadmill this evening , I only did 15 mins. But I did walk home instead of taking a cab and its uphill the whole way home. But ugh.... I was just so.... blah today...just not hungry I dunno...

    I live in Boston, and after all the stress that went on this week, last night after we were allowed out of our homes I decided to have 2 pieces of pizza and fries and 3 glasses of wine and a piece of strawberry cake. *sigh* I don't necessarily regret it, but this morning I am up 3 pounds, and I have already gained a few pounds back and I am kind of mad at myself right now...
