    I feel the need to confess and this seems as good a place as any (particularly as if I told my super healthy work colleague he'd most definitely judge me - in fact it might be hard for anyone not to judge)

    Last night I actually ate so much that I was sick! A definite new low for me and I'm disgusted in myself, particularly as I've been doing so well. Not sure what I'm most disgusted by - the fact I ate 'till I threw up ....or that my first thought afterwards was 'at least that's some calories gone!'

    I hang my head in shame :(

    On a more positive note- congratulations on making a year (very nearly)of this thread!

    No judgment, but please don't do it again. :-) Go find some Fresh Prince of BelAir on Netflix instead...it's still funny.

    I hope this thread is still around in another year so those of us just finding it now can search up our first posts. :smiley:

    It is taking everything in me to hold myself together.. Next Friday will be the one year anniversary of my Mom's death. Somehow it still hasn't hit me as being real...like, I know she's gone, but something in me just will not accept it. I don't know how to move on. It doesn't help that 15 days after losing her, my 15 year old dog(my first "child") died. The past year has just been a giant roller coaster. I have never been an angry person and have never turned to food for comfort until all of this. I have thought so many times about going to speak to someone...but I just can't bring myself to do it.
    I have been lurking this thread from day one..keeping up every day... and I am overwhelmed by all the support you show each other and the friendships that have formed. I feel like I've gotten to know you all through all of your confessions/comments/advice/jokes...and I can relate to so many of you. I guess I felt I could let it all out here.

    Sigh...

    This was my first post. Page 639 on May 20th. Natalie and Kellie were the first "regulars" to respond to me! <3
    I had 100 pages to go through too!

    I've done that...and thought the same thing. Absolutely no judgment here!

    There are quite a few I here who have done that. No judgement!

    Yeah that can be a killer. Just try to get rid of one thing or moderate. You don't want to waste all your hard work.

    I confess I'm a little nervous today, I'm starting a swimming routine to replace my gym routine and I'm afraid I'm going to go to the pool and stand out as the worst swimmer there, as I can't put my face in the water so I'm not very "professional" at the swimming thing.

    Ate a whole pint of Ben and Jerry's Half Baked- feeling super guilty since I didn't log it but was totally worth it

    I believe this is my first post? March 22nd :) Going back and looking through the thread it's really amazing how many of us are still here! I do miss people like @BZAH10 and @Francl27

    ETA- and I don't mean still on MFP as in still here since so many people log for years but I mean still on the same thread and still friends <3

    Found my first post...

    The last meal I cooked was Saturday - breakfast. I ate out all weekend, and it shows on the scale. Not sure I even care. It was a good weekend!

    You've just named the problem. Step 2 is making a plan to fix it. What is one thing you change today, tomorrow and Sunday that will help keep the work going?
    A walk, a project, phoning a friend? What does it take to keep your mind off food. I cross stitch or read a real book when I get munchy. I don't want chip grease on my project or my pages.

    The only way to get better is to practice. I hate swimming, but it's better than forced inactivity. @Italian_Buju is a swimmer. Got any tips, Nicole?

    I remember reading that and thinking that's my life, not a confession. This year one of my goals is to eat out much less. So far, so good.

    None here either!

    I've never ate till I threw up, but I know there's been at least 3-4 that I've had to lay down after eating a ton of calories.

    My sister refers to it as my food hangover.
