Topic: RE: Better day today! So far.
I know what you mean when you say your envious. I feel the same way at times but I know I made the right decision not to have WLS. I have been trying to eat low carb for a few weeks now and have lost a few lbs of which I have been gaining and loosing for a while now. Want to stick with it and keep loosing. My husband and I are trying to work together in this endeavor.
Keep plugging away at your food choices! Take care.

Topic: Better day today! So far.
Making better choices today. No beer and no choc fudge cake! Yeah! Up almost 3 lbs from 2 wks ago which not happy about. Just got to keep at it. I still read about people having WLS and feel a bit envious but I just know in my heart that it's not the right choice for me. Especially since so many of my food choices and issues are made with what floats between my ears! For the record my skinny mini hubby isn't feeling too good today after a day of crappy eating either. Well I better move onward and forward with my carb and crap detox. The cheat wasn't worth it!

Hi there I was doing ok for a few days too. But today was Canada day we ended up having company. Hamburgers hot dogs and oh ya beer that washed down the choc fudge cake. Frustrating being the carb sensitive one! Likely be 10 lbs heavier and I won't feel good tomorrow. Back to basics for me. The important thing to remember is that tomorrow is not a holiday! Glad you posted today! Thanks for being here.

Thanks Chelle...
It just depresses me that I can be this weak! Well.. the brownies are almost all packed up. Now if I can only stay away from the icecream late at night.
Got my pain meds filled today.... going to try to force myself out of the house to do the gym really early tomorrow... and do m y do all over again.

girl it happens to all of us! this is part of the stuggle of the journey! just get back up and dust yourself off and keep walking in the right direction..... and don't step on the scale until you are ready! (but at the same time don't use not being ready as an excuse to still eat bad food, been there done that too!)
one step at a time! one foot in front of the other!

Topic: MAJOR cheat!
It's so strange.... even though I need to lose weight as much as I need air to breathe, I end up screwing up along the line.
I've had a few days of screw ups. Let's see... for a couple of nights, I helped myself to 4 oz of vanilla fudge icecream late at night. That wasn't so bad.... for 110 calories I knew I would work it off the next day in the gym. The BAD BAD BAD me happened yesterday and some today.
My husband's company goes into shutdown for 2 weeks out of the year. The first week begins tomorrow. He goes in early, stays quite late, and the first and foremost thing on the guys in his department's mind is WHAT ARE WE GOING TO EAT.
I told my husband I'd make anything he wanted (except the pork butt.... I'm not a southerner, he is... and I have absolutely NO clue). We decided on brownies for Monday and a cheesecake pudding with fresh strawberries for Wednesday.
I began making the brownies for 50 guys yesterday and needless to say..... oops
I hit on 'em.
Someone please tell me I'm a bad girl.. cause afterall.. I am.
I was down 32 lbs since december but after the last couple of days, I'm afraid to get on the scale.
I need admonishing!

Topic: RE: Desperate for ideas/help
Sounds like you have it figured out, just need to put the rubber to the road.
I think that's where I'm at, just do it. For some reason I keep delaying the inevitable, I know it's not going to feel good at first but like exercise, just do it and eventually we all feel so much better mentally and physcially once we make the first step.
Thank you for responding to my post.

Topic: RE: Desperate for ideas/help
that makes a lot of sense. I think I might be at that point. Even the word "diet" 4 letter word, big clue right there, it's not going to work. I have to change how I'm thinking.
Wonderful to hear about your success and I hope it continues on. If you can get a good grip when you are younger, I feel that is a key part as well. A lot of us drift in and out of our reality, lose, gain, lose gain, then one day you wake up and cannot believe you are 70, you look at the picture of your life, for me the biggest regret - why didn't I do something and pay attention to solving the problem instead of the quick fix, lose, but then didn't stay focused and all that weight came back time and time again.
Thank you so much for responding to my post.
