confession...

home made 5 cheese lasagna and fresh pecan pie and 2 glasses of merlot on thursday (hubby`s birthday...) managed to be under calories for the same reason - but mm mm it was worth every moment...

I hate when my husband travels - I eat and eat and eat.

But, I avoided the Outback Steak House fries that I wanted and got a salad wrap with easy dressing instead.

I decided not to go grocery shopping - just to avoid having lots of food in the house to eat.

My confession - I'm a sad eater. I overeat when I am sad. It's just one of those days. I'm going to get out of this house and put my energy into the beauty in life.

I have been on MFP since the beginning of the year & up until about a week ago I hadn't done ANY exercise AND I was losing weight. NOW I would say I'm addicted to the gym. I like the way I feel after going & LOVE the extra calories.
Confessed.

Um....I hate my M&Ms last night Then I ate 1/2 of my daughter's LOL!

I was still under calorie count though.

I'm sorry that you're having a sad day

My confession is that nothing seems appetizing to eat anymore since I started at MFP a couple of weeks ago. I'm discovering that calorie counting, which I have never done before, really marries with any latent neurotic personality traits and that I've only eaten some grapes this morning..a handful.

When I first started I was hungry but I wasn't even- thinking about what I WANTED to eat. It's like my brain has reset and no longer even knows what it wants.

So ultimately- I am confessing that I'm under eating I think. I didn't plan on it and don't feel gratified by it so today I'm spending time thinking about it and analyzing why I don't want to eat....

It sounds as though you have moved into a lose weight frame of mind and your body is reacting,no idea how to make it happen but hopefully you can take that and adapt it to a healthy me frame of mind. :flowerforyou:

I ate my first slice of pizza for the first time this year last night . It was a thin slice of cheese and it was amazing. I forgot how good pizza tasted. I went to the local pizzaria, ordered 1 slice to go and took it home. I used to put down a 16" no problem. I have no regrets about last night and I feel great! I was still under my calorie goal for the day which was a good thing.

I don't think I could ever eat just one slice of pizza : D

I KNOW I couldn't. :blushing:

We had a chili cook-off luncheon at work yesterday, so I endulged a little...well, maybe a lot. :laugh:

Bless me Father for I have sinned. It has been....a long dang time since my last confession.

I confess that I have been taking an herbal supplement that suppresses off my appetite. It keeps me from doing the random munching that I have a tendency to do, especially since I travel 100% for work.. This means I am in airports a lot and surrounded by crappy food.

I know that I am cheating (myself) because the goal is to condition myself to not munch for no reason. An appetite suppressant is a temp fix, not a lifestyle change.

There, I confessed. I guess I should say some Hail Marys and Our Fathers now.

(Can you tell that I am Catholic and went to Catholic school for half of my life:laugh: :laugh:)

Lol! I just had a confessional on my MFP page .... I indulged in a LARGE Chai Tea Latte with only Milk on thursday... Generous portions of Thai on Wednesday.... Sometimes you just need to let loose!

I confess that if i start a topic and it doesn't get to at least page 2....I feel like I have failed. : (

That's a normal feeling for forum denizens..here's your bump lol.

I confess..........

I am being totally ocd over this whole thing! Since I joined on the 14th of Jan - I have lost 9 lbs. I feel good - I'm doing kettlebell 3 days a week and running 3-4 days. I quit drinking alcohol Monday - Thursday and usually don't drink on Sunday but might have a couple (trust me, all last year I drank every night - not to get drunk really, just a super bad habit).......I'm doing great, right??? Except I can't quit thinking about food, working out, mfp, weighing in, it has taken over my life! I need to slow down, I need to just get it through my head that it didn't come on overnight, it certainly won't go away in a day or 2.

There I feel better. Now I"m turning off the computer. Ya, right - lol, the apps on my phone too. :laugh:

My confession: 3 slices (big ones) of cheese and pepperoni pizza the day after having Chinese Buffet and trust me, I didnt go easy on the buffet. I am still water logged from all the added sodium. Then I had an unplanned cheat day and we had HUGE burgers and onion rings with bbq sauce. To make it all worse, I came down with the flu the same week and havent worked out much at all. :-/ Ill be paying for it and feel totally guilty but it feels good to get it off my chest!

my confession,will probobly make some people mad.....im not doing this as much for the health as I am to look good in my clothes again.Im vain I can admit,the health is just an added bounus

It shouldn't make anyone angry lol....most people DO care about how they look and if they didn't wouldn't have near the amount of motivation they needed to change.
