Ceiswyn, here is a total-internet-random-strangers' permission to take a rest day and let your leg heal so you don't do more damage on it: TAKE THE DARN REST DAY!

I'm on the validation train. Not to say I would give up if people didn't notice (I haven't). But after being made fun of by my cousins growing up because of my weight, I relish hearing them gush about how thin I am, especially since they're all overweight now. Petty? Yes, yes it is.

I vote for the no-bake sweet option!

Bump!

Me: 1 Binge: 2 DBF: 1 Yesterday I was away from home all day, which was great. Came home and sat down with a bag of chocolates, basically ready to down the whole thing. I got one out and my hubs took the bag and put it back in the fridge asking: "Would you like me to help?" Younger me would have gotten offended. I said…

Me: 0 Binge: 1 DBF: 0 Today was supposed to be the first day "back in it" after taking a two week no logging break in which I overate pretty much every single day. But then I decided to bake. When I was alone in the house. Such a bad idea! It's only failure if I give up.

June was a great month until PMS hit and the Binge won... Big time. I'm happy June is over now and I'm excited about starting fresh. At least being aware might help me be better this time around. Wishing everyone a great July. Me: 1 Binge: 0 DBF: 1

I don't know if it's the weight-loss or the working out but I'm far less clumsy now than I used to be.

Did OP ever come back to say what kind she picked? Or did this discussion turn out to be..... not her cup of tea....? :D
-
Lol pretty straightforward. Thanks :-) If you've read it, what did you think? Was it as "revolutionary" for you as the authors claim?

What book is that?
-
Well said!! I love calling it your "Positive Food Management Plan". That's an awesome attitude :-)
-
That's very well said. Thank you for your articulate and thoughtful reply. And you're absolutely right about the law of diminishing results. Some days I feel like I'm putting in a full-time job's worth of hours in meal planning, tracking and exercising. And then I ruin it with days like these. Whereas the first 50lbs just…

Me: 12 B: 0 DBF: 15 Yesterday was hard. I ate over calories but didn't really binge although I wanted to. I had to make myself brush my teeth and get in bed just to make the feeling pass.

So this gal (Stephanie Buttermore) is doing a series of videos based on Lyle's women's book. The third one (not on this playlist yet, but on her channel) is about refeeds and diet breaks. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLfSsah8UsndQ72PMuWAmHNttkJda1icq9 It's a good cliffnotes version for those just finding this…

Me: 7 B: 0 DBF: 9 Hey everyone, hope you are all having a good start to your month. If not, hang in there! I started seeing a therapist last week and binge eating was one of the things we talked about. It's my first time talking to someone other than my DH about it and to be honest at first it kind of weirded me out. But…

Agreed. Me too. I thought it didn't apply to me because I couldn't even imagine myself at such a low weight. Turns out, I can be in the "normal" range and I love it. People with high muscle mass disparage it and say it's bogus, subjective, etc. Fine, you already count macros and can shed a pound on command, you know you're…

Wow, I don't think I understand the thinking behind these. For 400 cals I could have a whole meal, certainly with at least 20 grams of protein, and a real cookie to boot!

What if AC/DC was only shook half the night?

I like this idea of checking one's eating habits. The opposite was also true for me. For example, everyone keeps saying "Don't drink your calories". So, I stopped putting skim milk in my coffee in the mornings. But 1) I felt deprived 2) I was hungrier sooner after breakfast. Turns out that amount of milk in my coffee was…

What if it wasn't Bon Jovi's life?

Before I understood CICO, before MFP, losing weight was a complete mystery to me. It was that magical thing I hoped would happen (even prayed would happen) but never did. Instead my weight kept climbing. Now I'm super close to goal and have been maintaining for almost 1.5 years the lowest weight of my life since my teens.…

Thank you @KnitOrMiss. You make some really goood points. I especially like what you say about perspective. I will try to keep it in mind! Me: 4 B: 4 DBF: 1
