Well yesterday I had the problem of eating all my calories and today was a whole different story.I did very well today although I was lazy and only exercised for 20 minutes.I was doing great until about 15 minutes ago and the hungry monster came to visit.I don't believe I was actually even hungry I think I just wanted to eat because I was bored and also its almost time for my monthly.I am not going to even bother weighing my self the rest of this week because I know I will be even more disappointed with myself.I managed to go over my calories by 527 in 15 minutes:sad: :sad: :sad: .That is so crazy!!!

I really wish I hadn't done that but I can't take it back now and I am so tired that I dn't feel like exercising but should I anyways?I am so bummed I just want to lose this disgusting fat on my body .When I wake up I can't ever say anything nice about the way I look because I can't stand to see myself in the mirror.I HATE WHAT I LOOK LIKE AND HOW I HAVE PURPOSELY LET MYSELF GET THIS WAY!!!I'm not trying to sound like I feel sorry for myself because I don't.I did this to me and I am the only one who can get it off.I just feel so dumb sometimes for overeating especially at the TOM.One last question for those of you that have lost all of your weight did you have to have some sort of plastic surgery to make yourself tummys look normal? I don't mind to pry but I am just curious because all my weight is in my tummy.Not like I will ever be able to afford plastic surgery but I was hoping when I do lose the weight I will look somewhat normal again

I can't speak to the plastic surgery, but the TOM - I just posted a thread about how totally out of control I get. I cannot control it.

This week - no problem. Last week - 527 calories in 15 minutes - no problem! Just know you are not alone and get back in the saddle - not tomorrow but right now! :flowerforyou:

Don't beat yourself up over the extra calories. I read once that around TOM you can eat a few more calories and be okay. Just do the best you can everyday and you will succeed.

You were way under your calories yesterday. The deficit is about an average over a long period of time, not day-to-day numbers.

I think you should make this more about liking yourself and your body than calories or weight loss. If you hate your body that much, you will never be happy with it no matter the number on your scale. No one has a perfect body. It's important that we appreciate what we have...we only get one. :flowerforyou:

When I want to eat and I know I am not hungry I come here and post and stay away from food. :flowerforyou:

Okay first of all... you were not lazy today - you moved your butt for 20 minutes! That's great! :flowerforyou:

And from someone else who is going through the same time as you (wish it would just get here already - grrrr:explode: ) I really do believe that our metabolisms rev up a little during this week. I heard somewhere a long time ago that that was true and that's why we often will crave foods that we normally wouldn't. I've been trying to keep within my calories, but I have to tell you over the last 4 days or so I'm STARVING at bed time and again when I wake up in the morning! I try to tell myself that it's in my head because I never want food after supper but there's no mistaking it... I'm physically hungry - stomach growling and everything.

Don't sweat it much. Just do your best! :bigsmile:

hey, don't get so down on yourself, so that was just for today, so jump back up on that wagon tomorrow. I agree with Amy that when I feel like eating something that I don't need, that I come here and know why I am here. Girl I am here for you any time you need to talk, I have a yahoo messenger. If you have one too then let me know you can have my username, if you don't have one send me a message, I always check them. I think you are very beautiful, please don't be so down on yourself, I used to do that too, but in God you are beautiful and to Him it does not matter what we look like He loves us. I am talking to myself here too.

Thanks again guys !! I guess I am just a bit hard on myself because when I was younger I was super thin and my mom always told me to suck it in suck it in.I was never allowed to eat what I wanted to when I wanted without being told I would gain weight.I guess thats why I have packed on weight because I never felt I was good enough in the body I used to have .So I ate emotionally for years and I am trying to love myself again and trying to tell myself that I need to take one step at a time.

Don't feel bad, you are not alone. I messed up yesterday BIG TIME... although I walked for 50 minutes and earned an extra 400 calories. I went over by 500+ anyway. It was a Medium Triple Thick Chocolate Shake from Micky Dee's... 700 calories. Not to mention my mother's Black Beans and Rice with a side of pork... God only knows how many calories it really was :embarassed: at least I left some on my plate

. Guess what... Aunt Flo arrived this morning!

that TOM :devil: will make you do things you can't control. At least you cared enough, to have done 20 minutes of "burning calories" :flowerforyou:

Today is a new day and a new chance to start again.

Make it a Great Day!

All these TOM posts running rampant around here!! LOL I am in the same boat right now. It seems a good deal of the women here are on very close cycles. I almost feel sorry for all the men here!
I know the last few nights I have been insanely hungry. I try to distract myself and nothing seems to work. I have learned the hard way that if I am craving something specific, I need to just go ahead and eat it. I tried talking myself out of a thin mint craving the other night and ended up eating a few hundred calories worth of junk before caving in and eating the damn cookies anyway!
Hang in there! It will ease up, and next week should be much better for a lot of us!
