Rough Couple of Days

Saturday, May 17th 2008

Hmmmm......Did ok yesterday during the day. When I got home I made nachos with tortilla chips and tons of cheese. Not only did I have one helping, I had two large helpings. I couldn't stop myself from eating. I was hungry, but even when I was full I kept eating. I don't even know why I ate it. I tried asking myself what the triggers were: trigger situation - being home alone for the weekend and not meeting with the director offering me a new job; trigger feeling - maybe they changed their ...

Feeling Better

Friday, May 16th 2008

I've made it through three days! I have kept in my calorie range! What's interesting to me is that I don't always feel the need to eat all the time. I think this is strange, since last week I was eating 5 times as much as I needed to be eating. For the past three days, when I feel stressed I open my calorie king page and review my progress, blog, or check others blogs. I'm amazed at what a difference this has made in only three days. I feel better.

Day #2 Down:
I made it through yesterday. I am proud of myself. However, I was under my calorie target for the day, but over 1200. My body is beginning to feel better. I don't feel so bloated.

Interesting thoughts...

Wednesday, May 14th 2008

I woke up around 4:30 this morning. The first thing I thought of was "oh, I ate way too much last night! I feel so fat." Then as I woke up I realized that this wasn't true. I was within my calorie range for the day. I told myself to stop what I was thinking and to acknowledge that I reached my goal for yesterday. This experience scared me because I realized how I have trained my brain to instantly think about what I did wrong the day before and then beat myself up about it. I'm b...

A Little Support Would Be Nice....

Tuesday, May 13th 2008

So, I've known for a while that I'm gaining weight. I also realize that I am an emotional eater. I also need to do something about it. I'm trying to think about what causes me to eat. Then this evening, when my husband came home from work he was is a horrible mood!!!! When he's in a bad mood, I feel like I did something wrong. I then become nervous and depressed. Tonight I caught myself going to the cabinet to get something to eat, but then I stopped myself and realized that even though I...
