Confessions

I popped a button off of my jeans this morning - and tried on 3 other different pairs, before I opted for my black stretchy dress pants...

Time to refocus!

I love this thread!

So far this week I have been a good girl, but tonight hubby and I are going out to dinner and I want a Marguerita!! (or two or three or . . .)

:drinker:

Man this is making me hungry! I have been SO good for the last couple weeks... haven't gone over in cals at all... but just today I was fantasizing about stopping at the store and getting stuff to make french onion dip.... so then I read this thread which makes me SUPER hungry for junk as I sit here forcing myself to down this super healthy salmon burger with sweet potato home fries *sigh*

what if you made the onion dip with greek yogurt. would it be horribly junky still? I'm all for finding swaps or eating just a smidge of the bad stuff.

Yesterday I ate 12 of the Adli's FF chocolate cookies. Only because that was the only "junk" I had in the house and I'm trying really hard to not spend money on food other than regular groceries. Otherwise it could have been a large 1/4 pounder with cheese meal from McDonald's for lunch, and 1/2 a large pepperoni pizza for dinner. Which I *HAVE* done before.

Reading all these things made me hungry and wanna cheat! lol and I just might :devil: or not :grumble:

I'm waiting for my kebab and chips to be delivered. It's going to be amazing. No regrets.

DOn't think i ever told anyone this in real life, as it (despite being sound scientifically) is socially unacceptable and would see me ostracised in seconds flat. Feel safe sharing it with you guys, so more can benefit from my knowledge.

The secret is: I never wash my hair. I subscribe to the theory that the natural oils produced by hair are capable of maintaining cleanliness. They destroy bacteria and keep your hair looking sleek. Corporations would have you believe you need to spend top dollar on products to keep your hair clean, but it just isn't true. The shampoos and conditioners you buy are destructive, chemically they are very similar to detergents used to blast stains from clothes and strip paint from walls. They rob your hair of its natural oils and leave you relying on an expensive cycle of products to stop your hair looking dull and rough. If you just didn't use them, like me, your hair would look great and be clean 24/7.

My hair is incredibly shiny (regularly complimented) and I've never once been told it smells bad or looks dirty. I haven't washed it in over 2 years. Just rinse my scalp thoroughly with cold water when showering (yes cold shower) to remove any styling product I may have used without damaging natural oils. If you want to start being a no hair washer just stop using shampoo and conditioner right away, only cold water for rinsing. It'll take 1-3 weeks for your hair to acclimatise (during this time it will seem overly greasy and oily) but after acclimatisation has occurred you will have beautiful hair forever, unless you make the mistake of washing it again.

People (mostly chicas) often ask for the secret of my hair, but I just have to laugh and make something up. The world is literally not ready for the truth.

OMG this morning I bought a 20oz soda from the vending machine and drank it, I haven't done that in months & felt awful :sad: but I did log it.

Can I do a PRE-CONFESSION???? Cause if so it's on tonight...hubby got passes to another cook-off so I may or may not consume copious amounts of BBQ brisket, ribs, sausage plus LOTS & LOTS of BEER :drinker: jello shots and other assorted drinks. But dang it will be FUN!! :blushing:

Pancakes... I'm in love with pancakes and might just binge on some this weekend

I must confess; I torture myself with guilt. Yesterday I ate a burger from McDonalds. Even in the drive through I felt guilty. Then later, I ate a piece of cheesecake. I then skipped dinner. I think it's bad that I did that too. I ended up under my calories, but I felt like throwing up out of guilt. Then I felt guilty for feeling guilty. Yuck! Plus I promised myself a cheat meal of pizza on Saturday, now I won't enjoy that as much. But I guess one has to keep going and trying my best to forgive. The problem is I just started this like a week and a half ago. Why is it soooo hard? I have been sad since I stopped relying on food to make me happy. How long will that last?
:grumble:

I bake.

And then eat too much of whatever it is I baked.

Last week - Smores Brownies (graham cracker crumb crust, brownie batter, marshmallows, gram cracker)



2 weeks ago - Chocolate ganache tart in a cookie crumb crust,


fml
i wish i didnt have such a passion for it .. lol

Last night I may or maynot have had 5 glasses of wine. None of which got logged!

In the past 5 days I consumed:

2 mini kit kat bars
5-6 chocolate graham crackers
4 Tbsp chocolate chips
3 squares of milk chocolate
3 6-8 oz glasses of red wine
8+ tablespoons of peanut butter
3 squares of hershey's special dark chocolate.

I feel like chocolate is a theme here.

Was running late yesterday and today and instead of having my usual Kashi Go Lean crunch with Almond milk...yesterday was McDonald's but I did have the egg white delight (not that bad) with a hash brown. Today the line at McDonald's was too long so I stopped at BK instead and well over 600 calories later, ugh. Yesterday, I still manage to stay under my calories (with my exercise) but today that's just not going to happen But it won't be that bad.
