So you fell off the wagon eh?...

Forgive me father for I have sinned. Found a recipe for lush brocolli and corn calzone but had to improvise with some ingredients when I bought them which, once i added them into MFP doubled the calorie content. I cannot explain how disgusted with myself I was, but I ate it and I hated it and then I had a huge blow out. Full bottle of wine, biscuits, chocolate How come when you hate what you've done you make it worse

Aww, I just want to look after you!

It'll be ok. You can start again tomorrow, everything's going to be ok

Aw thanks, I'm fine today. I've never felt so disappointed with myself as I did yesterday though. Think I was massively disappointed in the crap outcome of the pizza too though so it was a double whammy lol

I know exactly where you're coming from, but you have to know when it's best to give up and put the rubbish in the bin instead of you. There's really no point in eating something bad for you if you're not going to enjoy it.

normally I'm good at that and don't make particularly bad choices. Think it was more the fact that I had to make substitutes to the actual healthy recipe due to lack of options at the supermarket. It just knocked me on an already low day.

I'm back on the horse now though and am raring to go again.

You are too funny! well yesterday i ate a chocolate chip cookie but thankfully didnt go over my cals... so i guess im not really that bad lol

Give me the chocolate and all is forgiven! Carry on!

Wow thanks for that. If I'd known forgiveness would be so forthcoming and gratifying I'd have confessed to much more, maybe not all food realted :noway:

hAHA today was good...but i was sick over the weekend and ate way too much (lol sickness increases appetite for me for some reason)....I ate ben and jerries ice cream, pop corn and cake!!!!!!!!!! lol not all in the same day though!!! I wanted to die, because I felt such guilt!

That's the truth! I had some pepperoni rolls that were leftover from yesterday (the last day of my vacation). I didn't want to eat them today -- they didn't sound good at all! I really wanted some veggies, but since we had been on vacation, the fridge was pretty bare, and I thought, "If I don't eat the pepperoni rolls, they'll go to waste."

So instead of doing what I really WANTED to do and eating healthy food, I used my body as a trashcan, and choked the pepperoni rolls down. Now I feel lousy.

I did a diet plan a few years ago whose author mentioned the concept of not using your body as a trashcan. We should value our bodies more highly than any food that might go to waste, and quit using them as trash cans. I need to remember that!

Forgive my MFP friends, for i will be sinning tonight and possibly the next few days :embarassed: . I have the parentals coming over for a few days (eeeekkkk!!!!) and i already know that i will be going over my calorie count bc i'm gonna actually try cooking something and i probably won't be excersising either........

Yes Captain!! :bigsmile:

I went over my calories yesterday BUT I have an excuse. It was Fathers Day and I had 3 separate big meals made for me that would have been rude to refuse;

1 - My wife made this awesome lightish french toast with bananas and maple syrup for breakfast.
2 - Off to my Mums house where we all had a scrambled egg, bacon, hashbrown and homemade bread brunch
3 - Off to my inlaws where I had a nice steak, a beer, one and a half glasses of wine and some homemade spring rolls. Then a Weight Watchers recipe of Apple and Strawberry meringue pots.

Completely off my calorie mark but not going to get depressed about it, I had a great day and am back on track today. I did a bit of exercise dancing with my kids for about 15 minutes but I don't think that had a chance in hell of helping me back to my break even calorie mark.

I push people off the wagon. :devil:

This is a great topic!

I have a big sin to confess.

I fell (well, jumped since it was completely my own faul) off the wagon big-time. I'd been going pretty well for a few months, then had to do 10 weeks of shift work - and stopped all my efforts completely after one week. I haven't been going to my taekwondo classes since I started shifts 10 weeks ago, my diet efforts changed from healthy options most of the time, then to some of the time, and then... I have to confess that I had some late-night runs to McDonalds after work. I didn't even go to the gym at all after about four weeks in.

I'm now on annual leave, going overseas in two days, and hoping I can get back on track. It feels better just to admit how much I've gone off track!

I fell off the wagon as well! I had come so far ( lost 27 lbs) ANd worked really harf to get that far! I got on the scale yesterday and to my shame I have gained 11.5 of it back!!! Gerrr! It does feel good for me to admit this as well! Hang in there! And I know you can get back on track!
