WHY I graze- 28 Feb 2010 on February 28, 2010 5:25 am
I was thinking the other day and I think I have figured out why I eat all day long - I don't eat huge amounts and I stay active enough to maintian my weight loss so I'm not worried about the grazing but they why intersted me - I am aftaid to get hungry - I over eat when I get hungry - how is that for twisted thinking but I guess it's ok since it works for me
ok back to school work - story of my life but I'm going to get that degree - AA in Feb and then BS then masters and a few years latter I WILL have my PhD!!!

Nov 16th - getting my groove on on November 16, 2009 7:28 am
I am feeling pretty good - am getting the whole single mom thing functioning - Debbi came out last weekend and that helped boost me way up emotionally. Then Bender got on the boards and had lost 11 pounds last week -if she can do it so can I!!! was up 5 from the bottom of my bounce zone when I started down to -2 this am - tracking everything in fitday - finally figured out a good trick for me - plan my meals for the next day onpaper then enter them all into fitday- adjust to my liking and then zero it all out - then as I eat the next day all i have to do is add the amount istead of hunting for what I ate
today it's 10:30 and I am on my 3rd snack/meal - protien shake, luna bar, now shirmp and cocktail sauce - walked 30 mins and then nursed for a good 20 after just having my shake so I was STARVING and shaky - swapped my high fiber bar for the luna bar. and grabbed my shrimp suppose to be eaten at 11 now - I ate part of them but got full -will keep munching - I am defintally feeling mr pouch better - love that restriction feeling
have my first asignment done today - waiting for Tim to get on line - should be any min so I don't want to start the next one yet - it is fairly involved- I am loving school and but find myself getting upset over anything under 100% so I am TRYING to adjust with a goal of 95% I am at 96 in one class and 98 in the other.
life is good - love what you do and do what you love

Nov 6 - one week down on November 6, 2009 3:34 am
Tim has been gone a week and I am hanging in there - I put on 6 pounds the last few days he was home and all but one is gone agian so I figure only about 2 were real weight the rest were water weight from eating out
my children have some unwritten rule that states if Daddy leaves town they must get hurt or sick - the farther he goes the worse they must be - there for Iraq equals pneumonia - Rach is pretty sick - thank God for Tricare so I at least am not stressing over medical bills/costs on top of a sick kid
the ft hood thing has me freaked a little - ok maybe a lot - praying all will be ok
Debbi comes for the weekend today - I can't wait
peace

control in eating on October 27, 2009 4:00 am
I posted this this morning in answer to a post on controlling eating - after I reread it it struck me as so very true and so I copyed it here - to reread when I need it
take your mesurements - is the growth in your arms and thighs - muscle or is in your gut- fat? you don't have to tell me or goerge (unless he is your accountablity person) or the board in general but YOU MUST BE HONEST WITH YOURSELF!!!!
then you have to decide what your limits are - I am stress eating right now - my limits are that I have to have my protien shakes and have to fix the kids at least one healthy meal - and I can not eat till I am sick - ok not much of limits but they are keeping me pretty well in check
chocolate, cheese burgers and cheetos are not in and of themselves "bad" or "evil" foods - they are poor choices for a reg diet but not for an ocasional treat - can you do the 80% rule? 80% of the time you eat right and you aren't allowed to beat yourself up for the other 20% of eating
can you have that control? the control of SELF that says yes today I feel like crap and I am going to eat crappy food but next meal I will eat better OR yes I want chocolate and that dark choc over there is wonderful tasting, I can have it as soon as I drink this choc protien shake b/c no freaking way am I eating good choc and FOLLOWING it with a protien shake
can you "treat" yourself to better quailty or more expensive protien treats? is there a cheese you love but is $10 a pound? can you satify your self with a few onces of that instead of the chocolate? how about GOOD shrimp instead of cheetos?
sometimes for me it is about eating what "I want/deserve" and my old mindset kicks in and I am eating crap but would be just as happy or happyer with the nicer things that are good for me that i don't get b/c I shop frugally
remember a HUGE part of this weight loss journey is mental - my doc used to tell everyone (probably still does just haven't seen him in years now LOL) "I fix your guts - you fix your head"
hope my ramblings help somehow
peace my friend
Danni
