    1. Wine
    2. Cheese
    3. Picking up extra hours at work during times I would work out and the fact that I cannot or will not wake up early to workout.

    1. Stress!

    2. Beer.

    3. Carbs. (Perfect meal for me would be mashed potatoes, bread, noodles and rice!)


    So true on the carbs. My husband is Hawaiian and if every meal doesnt come with a triple side of rice he would go crazy. I make enough for JUST him and avoid it!

    Yes I'm mad, my exercise which I try bloody hard to keep at has been interrupted by kids!

    The rest is wine and steak!

    Lousy Crumb-snatchers (my mom's made up word)!

    1. Rice Krispy Treats
    2. Family visits - can't work out with the Grandkids around. Toddlers and weights, treadmill or exercise bike do NOT mix.
    3. Insomnia - I get up at 5am and am at work at 6am. If I can't wind down and sleep - I'm a zombie at work.

    I could never work out in front of my hubby but I thought to myself " at least I work out"
    My list is
    1. Stress: my co-worker is a b-t-ch
    2. Carbs: although not bad but I can go overboard sometimes
    3.Ice cream: I crave ice cream, it use to be chocolate but theres something about ice cream I want more

    1- Beer. We seem to drink every weekend.

    2- Emotional eating. I am struggling with this, but it's getting better now that I know the triggers and how to avoid a binge.

    3- Joe Beez. It's a local sandwich shop and makes amazing subs and wraps. We go there at least once a week. There is no way to find out the calories so I can't calculate, but I know it's a lot. And their wake and bacon sandwiches (bagel w/ cc and bacon!) are to die for.

    1. Lack of planning (not having healthy foods in the house or planning meals out ahead of time).

    2 Lack of focus-allowing work and daily life to distract me from my goal. I have to stay focused on my habits, every day, all the time.

    3. Going on vacation. Although, If I employ good planning and careful focus, this one can be beaten as well.

    1. My friends...they all like to eat delicious foods that i am just not strong enough to say no to (chips and salsa). They also like to drink, which so do I but the calories are killer!

    2. Long days at work...i get so bored and then I want to munch on something.

    3. Unexpected events...stuff comes up or plans change and the next thing I Know i didn't exercise that day. I wish I Could get up earlier and workout but that will not happen!

    1. Alcohol: Don't think I even need to explain this one, who doesn't enjoy a nice drop of Alcohol :P
    2. Friends: They always want to buy greasy foods like Chinese and McDonalds and have BBQ's a lot, pretty hard to resist at times.
    3. Boredom: Pretty much always makes me want to eat, and for some reason when I'm bored I always tend to snack on crappy foods.

    Wow!

    1. Not working out in the morning, if I don't do it more than likely it will not get done
    2. Planning, if I do not plan the rest of my day is off balance & I eat whatever I can get my hands on
    3. Eating out/Weekends (they catch me off my game and next thing you know healthy is out the window)

    1. Holidays/Celebrations (alcohol, eating out, desserts, etc...)

    2. Cravings for my food faves- Cheese, Bread, and Pasta.... (ie: Mexican and Italian baby!)

    3. Anxiety... I'm an emotional eater... especially if I'm nervous or worried about something.

    What is this TOM everyone is posting? I guess that stands for something, but I haven't figured it out yet.
