Today was hard

Today was so very hard to complete. I had a good day personally...I was able to sleep in and relax, but I was so hungry for anything. But, you know what? I didn't just go out and binge, I ate a peanutbutter sandwich and drank lots of water to fill me up. I didn't break and eat the oreos in my cabinet. I was crabby towards my wonderful boyfriend. I feel terrible about that. I hope that these days will happen less and less. With the Holidays coming up, I will be home more and more so I'll have to watch my food intake. I guess if I get the munchies, I'll drink water and go exercise at the 24 hour place down the street. This way I can have more calories to fulfill my munchies. Okay...nuff said. Tomorrow is a new day.

    Way to go, mspiggie. I don't have nearly the willpower you do! You are a Weight-Loss Warrior.

    There are always hard days. Good for you. Trash the Oreos though - no reason to have junk in the house.

    I recommend eating an apple when you get that way. I make a cup of coffee or tea. Slice the apple up and sprinkle it with splenda and cinnamon and just sit down and take time to really enjoy it. Then I drink a whole lot of water. It has worked for me more times than I can count. :drinker: ~karen

    DrWhoFanatic47:

    Don't give up!

    You can change the day you're in. Can you go for a quick walk?

    Log your food. I had to face my bad food choice at lunch today. I'm in a 178 calorie deficit uless I go get in some exercise.

    Hang in there. If the day doesn't turn around for you, it'll be ok. Start again tomorrow. I'm rooting for all of you!
