I just bought the Fitbit Force! I'm still waiting for it to get here. It tracks steps taken, stairs climbed, calories burned, and is a watch (which I think is cool feature) and it is a sleep tracker! All in one. Go to Fitbit.com and watch the video on the Fitbit Force. They have a bunch of different products too. Its…

Request sent to you! I have lots to loose too and log daily and comment often. Would love to get to know you! :) Anyone is free to add me, but please inculde a brief message about yourself. Its easier to get acquainted that way I have found. I started this journey back in June of this year and I was over 400 pounds. I will…

Just for today: I will follow thru with my plan of walking no matter what comes up today. No excuses!

I've never had a Fitbit, but I've been wanting a Fitbit Force since they came out. Has anyone tried that, and what are your thoughts about it? I'm liking the being able to wear a fitness tracker on your wrist part.

Tonight my mom and my friend went to see the movie Last Vagas and my mom and friend were gonna have big buckets of popcorn, so I asked them to go to a resturant so we could eat a good dinner and I did, so I didn't have any popcorn. I'm proud of my control and not caving in and getting any! I even walked after we got home!…

Dear Diary- Today was day 5 of No Binge November.. I felt totally in control today!! I was so busy that I didn't even have time to think about food! I'm hoping that tomorrow is just as busy and will keep me on the straight and narrow!! Tonight for dinner I was asked to go to Applebees with some friends. I got the Jalapeno…

Thinks shes really Popeye in real life!

Dear Diary- Today is November 4th and I made it thru another day. I'm finally getting done with TOM and I'm feeling much better at handling the nights. Nighttime is always the worst time for me. Its nighttime when I feel the cravings come over me, or some kind of monster waking up deep inside me pushing me to binge. I…

I'm proud of the fact that even tho I had a binge last night, I didn't let it DEFINE my day today. If I could even keep my few binges to one day or a night everynow and then, I'd be much happier. I usually let them drag me down for at least 3 whole days of binge eating.

Day 3 of No BInge November- I had to go to the Slip Ups and post about last night. Sigh. At about 10 last night I gave in and devoured mass amounts of food. I totally had a food hangover all day today. Since I was feeling so bad about last night I did good today. Usually when I have a slip up its like.. 2 or 3 days worth,…

Ok.. confession time..... Last night I was really craving some munchies. (dang TOM gets me everytime!) I took a shower and grabbed some radishes and posted in the Check In that I was NOT gonna go downstairs and open that fridge and give in to my cravings. I'm ashamed to say....:blushing: .... I totally gave in. I ate some…

Day 2 of No Binge November- I did fine all day, then at about 9:30pm I opened the fridge and looked at what was in there and had to forcefully slam it shut. I wasn't even HUNGRY, but I wanted to eat still!! Sick! I took a loooong hot shower and then decided that I still wanted to munch, so I grabbed a large sandwich baggie…

Day 1 of the No Binge November- Its that TOM an I wanted to have really bad foods all day, but I stood strong! I took a nap in the late afternoon when I was really craving some greasy fast food. (and usually I don't even like greasy foods) I made it thru the first day. I felt like since it was officially November I…

OMIGOSH!!! I thought I was the only one who felt like it was a food hangover!! I told someone that thats how it feels the day after a binge and she looked at me with a raised eyebrow and slowly backed away.. I'm so glad I'm not the only one!! That is one of the things that I (try to) use to keep me from binging at night. I…

Oh I agree! Being tired, TOM and missing a workout is what my triggers are too! But in about 25 minutes November 1st officially starts!! WE GOT THIS!!!!!! Happy No Binge November everyone!! :flowerforyou:

I made it thru the day. Its TOM and I'm actually not hungry, but ate up to my cal goal cause tonight my friend is coming over, who I haven't seen in a while, and there will probbably be a drink or 2 involved. I'm not much of a drinker (thankfully) so I'm fine with that.. but shes like.. 130 pounds and eats all the time and…

Just for today: I will stop beating myself up becaues I didn't go on my walk like I should have. (Its TOM :sad: and I just got LAZY)

@VanillaBeanSeed What kind of party is it?? Can you just make sure you eat a really filling meal before you go out/to their house?? Maybe bring along some low cal snacks for you? Pop a big bag of air popped popcorn and take that with you. I have heard that clear liquors are lower in calories than darker ones, tho Im not…

How about a Do More December?? Since its the 12th month, maybe it could be something like.. whatever you do for exercise, do 12 minutes more everyday in December. So since I walk, I would add in 12 minutes more of walking, or do 12 minutes of Zumba or 12 minutes of stationary bike.. no matter what you choose to do each…

Just getting ready for bed. Happy to say it was another good day. I'm loving this challenge of going all month with out binging. I have not had a slip up for 4 days, and it isn't even November yet!!!! So glad I saw this group! Is there any ideas of what we can challenge ourselves with come December?

Just for today: I will practice PATIENCE with myself!

There is a new(ish) group on here called No Binge November if you want to check it out! You can check in daily and post how your day was and if you had a craving and how you overcame it, or if you did binge, you can post about it and get suggestions on how to maybe nip it in the bud next time. I love the accountability of…

I did good again today. I had to fight an urge to just go buck wild today tho! I just keep telling myself that " I only have to do this for today. If I want to eat whatever I want tomorrow, I can." Of course by the next day the craving usually has gone away and I'm prepared to fight it. This strategy has worked for me…

I lost 44 pounds since June. I was just focusing on what I ate (started at over 400 pounds and doing anything was difficult) , but this last month an a half I have been walking and increasing my walk time (from 10 minutes to 30 minutes) and I have only lost 1 pound !!! I know I have been doing a little more eating since I…

I'm jealous too! I'm in westren Michigan and DANG is super windy and cold and rainy/sleeting! UGH. I find the biggest problem during the weekends is being at home too much. Boredom eating an all that.. I try to still stay on as much of a normal schedule as I can, but most of my slip ups have been on weekends. This weekend…

YAAAAAAAAYYYYY!! Its 11:30 at night and I'm proud to say I made it thru the day and evening with out giving in!! It was touch and go for a few hours, but I'm practicing for November. Its only about a week away! I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who gets the Time Of Month binges!! Its insane!!! Stupid hormones!! GRRRR!!…

Its only 5PM where I am, but I have been having cravings like nobodys business since late last night! Around 11PM I was thisclose to binging!! I wanted EVERYTHING! Thank goodness we have like.. nothing in the house to tempt me!! I didn't eat anything but some radishes to fill me up so YAAAAAYYY about that! So yeah.. I…

Sometimes fast food is the only option, especially if your in a car load of people and they dicide where to eat. It would be a good idea to take a few minutes and go to websites like Mcdonalds, Burger King, Wendys, Taco Bell, Arbys etc to find some lower calorie options and WRITE THEM DOWN in your phone ( I use Evernote)…

As most people have said.. its all input VS output. Eat at a deficit and you can enjoy everything! Aim to eat clean and enjoy life!

This is for tomorrow as I'm getting ready for bed and planning my day out.. Just for today: I will try something new! Zumba!
