    MAN!
    I struggle with this EVERY DAY it seems! I have a serious issue with sweets, and some days I want some cookies so bad, I look like I'm on crack!
    I'm trying to remember that I'M the boss of my body, and I shouldn't let it dictate what I do. My goals are not in anyway shape or form related to me having 12 cookies. I just gotta think about that.
    (Now, if its been like 4 hours, I've worked out, drank water, and considered the consequences of my actions...and STILL want a cookie...I'mma have a damn cookie. JUST 1. Everything in moderation!)

    Sure, and this is why I have a weekly free day or cheat day - whatever you want to call it.
    TODAY WAS THAT DAY!
    It was fabulous! I ate great, wonderful foods all day - about 6000 calories.
    I love my cheat day, or as I prefer to say: "RE-FEED THERAPY"
    I have a weekly day where I eat about twice my daily goal, and a monthly food orgy where I eat like a man going to the electric chair for 24 hours.
    LOVE IT!
    It's nice knowing I am never more than 7 days from eating anything I desire in whatever quantity I want.
    I'd go nuts otherwise.

    And I have lost over 70 pounds doing this every single week.
    There is some science behind this, but science bores me.
    I do it.
    It works.

    Good enough:drinker: !

    I've had one binge day already this week, and gone alittle over on my cals a couple of days too, but damn it, I wanted to eat junk again anyway! And I knew I'd hate myself if I did. And that just ****ed me off! LOL!
    Just keep punching, and know this.
    YOU ARE NOT ALONE!
    Some days are just hard.
    To punch through this wall of doubt, look within and answer for yourself:
    Why do I want to be healthy and fit?
    And attach great pleasure to that as you set these goals.
    And then ask yourself why do you NOT want to be fat?
    Attach great pain to all the reasons you do not want to be fat.
    Few people can actually do this which is why most people just quit.
    This is the key to internal motivation.
    Take the time to do this, and those hard days are not so challenging.
    Sure, we still hit walls, but you'll keep punching and reach your goals.

    All Is Possible!
  • Thanks for posting this!! I had a bum day today and still stayed on target with eating healthy and I didn't cave in...HOWEVER, I "FELT" Like I wanted to say "FORGET IT" and start eating sweets/etc. but I know I have stuck to my eating plan for 4 weeks and I have been working out and I have lost between 10-13 pounds (fluctuates) and I know that I have to keep pressing hard through this to see lasting result's b/c emotional eating is what got me to this weight to begin with.

    My husband and I were both feeling stressed about finances, moving, life and he said he wanted goodies too (he's lost 15 or so pounds too) and we both said we need to pray but we didn't "feel" like that either. So then we sat down and prayed for God to meet our needs, to bless our efforts and for us to be obedient and it's amazing b/c that was a couple hours ago and neither one of of us has eaten anything and we are busy working on our new house plans!!

    Keep on keeping on!!! We are are all on this journey of life taking one day at a time!!! We will make our goal if we stay persistent!!

    So proud of you for not caving!!
    Blessings,
    Shannon

    I'm there right now. I desperately want a coke float. I'm trying to convince myself that it's milk and milk is a healthy food group. And the coke, well it's a treat. But then I think yeah, how long do I have to stay on the treadmill byt eating it. So I sit here and read instead of whatever one else is going through and talk myself out of it. ugh. LOL

    FIGHT IT! U will be so happy u did! I'm rootin' for ya!

    Dear Lord, u just cracked me up!
  • It's okay to feel that way. I do to. But I want to be healthy more than I want my way! Sooo, keep pressing on through those moments of rebellion. It won't last forever. Take a long bubble bath and wash those worries away. You will be fine and healthy!!
