Welcome back!

I am so very sorry for your loss. Big hugs

I could have written your post. It is not that I say to myself - well I ate one "bad" thing, so I am going to eat crazy and binge for one day or a week or continue for months. It is just so unconscious if that is the correct word. It can be that the item was so tasty to you that you want to continue. And once we started…

I look forward to the day when I will be happy or at least accepting of my body.

I have way too many triggers to list (all carbs and I don't mean the carbs in fruit). Honestly I can binge on anything if there is nothing tasty("bad") in the house to eat. I am this close to even getting rid of the oatmeal. And I have dried cranberries and also almonds in the house. That too almost became obsolete in my…

Hi, How is everyone doing today? Hope we are learning and doing our best. Hugs

People have to always say something about me eating a salad - what's in it, oh, u eating so heathy - wish I could do that etc. I was at a luncheon, passing around the roll basket. I did not take but the woman across from me had to ask "You're not indulging" I just said maybe later. And then I asked her if I could ask her a…

Just Do It. Nike

So if you used a tote bag to go grocery shopping, check in those bags, the car trunk, pocketbook, maybe outside of your car door on the ground or grass. Good luck and sorry it is lost.

Bean Salad - Can use chickpea, kidney, white etc., open can, rinse, drain. Add your favorite salad dressing or red wine vinegar, a little EVOO if you want. Optional add in: sliced Bermuda onions, cherry tomatoes, cubed green peppers/cucumbers etc. Refrigerate. As someone mentioned above, there are healthier options at fast…

Amusedmonk: Thank you for your input. I am going to eat my dinner in the kitchen from now on. I will still eat clementines as my snack in the den with tv. Then after, crochet or color. Thank you for your thoughts. Hugs

Luv my gummy vitamins.

You rock!!!

You rock!

You rock!

All the Summer fruit and veggies are in now; enjoy in a smoothie or by themselves. Take bananas and apples along with you, no work. Cut up veggies/fruits night before so easy for you to grab.

6 lb gain. I just gained back 30 lb. trying to diet and binge, classic yo-yo. Maybe if you are so unhappy at your job, you can update your resume if you have one or create a new one. See what other stores you would like to work at and if there are any openings. Hugs

Would love to be 140! You sound like you are now on a good inspiring path. Hugs

Hi, Wow! Such excellent responses and suggestions!!!! Amusedmonk and the people that write about the association of the sun going down... etc. Basically mine is going into den to watch tv, and actually any time of day. I just want to eat at tv time, all the time. I do bring a new pack of gum sometimes and chew up the whole…

I just ate well for 5 3/4 days and then started binging all evening. I go to Overeaters Annonymous which you might find helpful. I really don't think it is for me but I still go. It can help with mental/emotional issues because you would share your problems with a sponsor. I have not had luck with a sponsor. A number of…

Big hugs

Tell yourself you are not going to eat carbs at all three meals. I also love pancakes, muffins, candy, cakes, cookies etc. I will not lose weight eating those types of carbs at every meal. I do not keep those carbs in my house; if I did I would eat them at a low moment when I get a craving or more accurately the need/urge.…

Monday started plan Mindfulness blah blah blah blah Every day struggle

Big hugs to you and your Dad

My shoulder has been hurting for about 2 weeks. Saw doctor, went for an xray, osteopena. Going for MRI next week. One doc commented it could be a tear in the rotary cuff. If it is not a tear, the doc said he would give me a shot. I believe I have the pain from doing too many classes using 5 lb weights. Right arm I could…

If I were to eat oreos, it would have to be the double stuff ones lol (and I would eat the whole bag probably in 2 sittings)

Hi, Sometime if I run out of time to make a salad with a protein, I will grab an apple or banana and 21 almonds. A hard boiled egg would be good to eat at the same time too. Grab baby carrots and a serving or two of hummus. That's all I got.

Maybe it depends on the mood you are in. Are you feeling good with your emotions? Then maybe you can handle just one cookie. But if you just got annoyed with someone or something didn't go as you planned, and if you can, I would hold up on that treat. How has your record been in the past - have you just had "one" and you…

On Saturday I was in binge mode so had my favorite Nathans lunch. I did want to treat myself to a chocolate covered strawberry but $7.00 at Godiver Chocolates for just 1 was so overpriced that I did not get it. Instead had Baskin & Robins ice cream cone for $5.00 lol

So January 2020 I want to join the Polar Bear Club or one of the charity events that run into the freezing ocean. I need to be able to run out really quickly from the ocean so I can warm up. Need to be able to not be so stiff, achey and to get my health back.
