Confession Time! ((ABSOLUTELY NO JUDGEMENT))
Replies

Even though I've lost weight almost every week, have logged my food diligently all week and my clothes are not tighter and it is okay if I don't lose every week I am still scared to step on the scale. Every week I grit my teeth and close my eyes as I step on it. I also always weigh myself about 3 times in a row to be sure.
Speaking of getting things off my chest- one of my breasts seems to be shrinking faster than the other one as I lose weight.
HAHAHA!
I weigh myself twice in two different places(in the bathroom and in the dining room) to make sure the weight on the scale is the same. 1 -
I am very seriously considering gastric bypass surgery and the program that pays for it has a restriction of BMI. I'm almost afraid to lose more weight (I'm not losing much), because if I lose too much I'll be under the BMI to qualify...0

I've successfully reversed my insulin resistance, but I've been too scared to come off the Metformin - I think I convinced myself that it was the only reason I've successfully lost the 69 pounds - that I'm incapable of doing it on my own.
I did stop, as of Wednesday. I still scared
I'm on it too for the same exact reasons and have thought it has helped me lose weight after reading it would...dont know if its true or not but dont plan on stopping just in case.0 -
I feel incredibly boring because I can't think of anything to confess.0

Have you considered the single-serving microwavable brownie bowls?
Enabler!!!

I let my dog pull me up the hills when we are out running. She doesn't mind but it seriously reduces the effort!2

And I keyed your car.
BAHHAH I double died! Epic.

I love to eat in the morning and it does not matter what it is. Leftovers from dinner esp. if I have take out is the best....0

One of my biggest motivations to get more fit is so I can finally check the "athletic and toned" box on the dating website I'm on without having to worry that a guy will be disappointed when he see me in person0

It any of the sweet potatoes weigh more than 200 grams I won't buy it. So some weeks, I don't get them, because none are in the magic gram weight. I also buy loose onions and bell peppers on a similar weight method. Again some weeks, there aren't any in that weight...
Shall I continue. I have developed a lot of quirks over my 900+ logging days here.
While I admire your dedication, if I had to be this diligent, I know I would fail. Perhaps, this is why I keep yo-yoing. I weigh food but I also use the hand method for determining approximately how much something weighs. I probably underestimate quite a bit.

Excellent idea! I have to go to Target today anyway b/c I'm out of a few things.0 -

While I sympathize with the weekly trap you've found yourself in, I'm glad to have found another Batter Enthusiast.
(Are you making it from scratch, or using box mix? I can't keep any sort of quick desert options in the house. If I want something sweet, I have to make it, so it happens less often. Not that brownie batter is hard to whip up....)
Have you even frozen brownie batter? OMG......AMAZING. it never fully solidifies, and is like batter soft serve. Heaven!

I know, I want to do it also. Shhhhh
LOL. This may be the wrong thread for us!
We should create the "what did you eat for your binge" thread.
LOL!

I will pour out a small amount of honey roasted peanuts and eat them. Sometimes I log it as 1/2 a serving, and sometimes I don't log it. I'm also guilty of eating a few cashews and not logging it. I'm trying to get better.0

I once ate a jar of Biscoff crunchy spread (the best, most heavenly food EVER) in two days. All of it. On a spoon. Straight from the jar.1

That's your guilty secret? My binges would be closer to "Opps, did I just eat that family sized bucket of lard???".
Or more accurately, when I work away from home and the grilled chicken breast I ordered comes with a ton of fries or bread... I find it really hard not to eat it all!0 -

Oh my god I love this! I need to get this off my chest. Here goes...
My name is Kayla. I'm trying to lose weight and I hate most vegetables.0 -

Did that taste as disgusting as it sounds?
I used to sprinkle hot chocolate powder over vanilla ice cream. Yum!0 -
I never log my coffee that I drink every morning. I log the creamer I use but not the coffee. Call me lazy but I don't think I should be calorically penalized for consuming something that saves my co-worker's lives. I'd kill them without it!0

This is a real thing?! oh sweet baby Jesus, i'm screwed. My only saving grace is that the Canadian dollar is really low right now so it isn't worth it for me to cross the border and grab one of these.

Snort! Lol. The guilt isn't eating the peanuts or the cashews. The guilt is not logging it.
The worst binge I ever had, I ate half a pan of brownies in one sitting. I would grab one, and then tell myself "one more won't hurt anything." And the next thing I knew the pan was almost gone. I forced myself to only have 1 a day until they were gone (which was only like 2 days). And that doesn't even mention the other stuff I ate that day.0 -
I have been known to eat the majority of a box of Wheat Thins with a brick of cream cheese. The tomato and basil ones are yummy.0

They're okay. I wouldn't say they're worth crossing the border for.0 -
I ate ice cream and chips last night, and only logged half of the ice cream and none of the chips.0
