So disgusted with myself over what I ate today. I felt like bingeing all day and was able to avoid it part of the day by drinking water and chewing gum. Once I avoided it by no credit of my own. I went to th vending machine with $1 and made my selecton and the machine ate my money but didn't give me anything back. I blew…

Through June 11th: Me: 6 Ed: 5 I blew it yesterday and knew I was eating to stuff my feelings but did it anyway. I told myself in the moment that it wasn't so bad but it was and today I feel miserable about myself. I just planned my food for today and am going to do my best to stick with my plan. I have heard that we can't…

Through June 10 - Me: 6 Ed: 4 Weekends are always a struggle for me, and this past one was no exception. I am determined to plan better and do better next weekend.

Me: 6 Ed: 3 Yesterday I did binge, but not as much as usual so I am trying not to beat myself up too bad. Today was a better day.

So far this month . . . Me: 4 Ed: 2 This is the longest I have made it in a long time.

Since June 1: Me: 3 Ed: 2 Last night was a struggle but I managed to keep myself busy and made it through without bingeing. My husband and I had a healthy dinner together and then stopped at our bank, which is located in a grocery store. As soon as we walked into the store my mind started racing thinking about the…

Tally so far through June 4: Me: 2 Ed: 2 Now we're tied but I am determined to take the lead after getting through today binge free!

I started seeing a counselor a few weeks ago because of having way too much stress in my life and not handling it well. I have questioned for most of life if I have an eating disorder and after talking to my counselor about my relationship with food she agreed that I do. Although I have had some periods of time over the…

I didn't see this challenge until today and already blew it over the weekend, but I will start the challenge today and take it one day at a time. The whole months sounds overwhelming and a day at a time sounds more manageable to me at this point. So far, so good for today. :smile: Tally for the month: Me: 1 Ed: 2

@Erauman, I just noticed one of your comments about the sugar alternatives in Body by Vi shakes and just wanted to share what I have learned. There is sucralose in the shakes but it is only .003 mg of sucralose per 2 scoop serving. If a person uses 2 shakes a day for 5 years, that would equal 1 packet of Splenda which…

I am doing the Body by Vi 90 day challenge, love the shakes and am losing weight. I track everything, including my shakes, in my food log here to make sure I am not getting too many or too few calories. If I have too few calories my body will hold onto everything, and if I think I can just replace two meals with these…

I'm so glad I came across this thread. I have thought about getting an eliptical myself and one of the things I have noticed when I have looked at them is different stride lengths, but I haven't found any information to help me determine what the appropriate stride length is for me. Does anyone know how to figure that? I'm…

I'm in. Today was actually day 3 of level 1 for me, but it will be good to be part of a group doing this for the accountability and motivation.

I am fairly new here and asked a couple of days ago why people do that. The answer I received is that it keeps the thread near the top on the message boards.

I used to say I couldn't run to save my life, but I have been doing the C25K program too and am in week 6. I'm struggling this week for some reason but I am sticking with it. I think I am going to repeat week 6 until I can make it all the way through each day and I am ok with that. It's much better than giving up, which is…
