Unhappy binge

I had a binge this weekend. A really, really bad one. I gained almost 10lbs. Seriously. Aunt Flo is on her way and I haven't learned to have power over her yet. She says eat, I eat, and then I can't stop. *sigh* I'm back in the 170's (176.5) and I'm not happy about it at all. I think after my visitor checks out, I'm doing FS again. I need to detox. I'm ashamed of how I did this weekend. And what was heaviest on my mind? How will I ever be married? I would never let anyone see me eat the way I did this weekend. But if you have someone who's always home, what can you do? It's not like you can plan a binge. The sad thing is I was down about it, when really, I should welcome something like that. Maybe that will help me stop doin' it. Cuz I'm not gonna eat the way I did this weekend if there are witnesses.

Who gains 8lbs in a week? Only me.

Angry annoyed

I just checked my pedometer and it didn't count all of my steps this morning! It's off by like 1500! I can tell today is not going to be a great day. It might as well be Monday.

Don't beat yourself up too bad Soror- we alll do that. I will not even TELL you what I ate this weekend, it was that bad. Suffice to say that my major food groups were rice, salt, potato chips, and cake.

It was really bad, lol.

but today is a brand new day and I haven't done anything that I can't undo with some work.

Ideal, girl you've come too far to beat yourself up over one week. What I've learned from you is that this [weight loss] is a process and there will be good days/weeks/months and bad days/weeks/months. Praise God that you didn't gain anything more. You're gonna drop that weight so quickly it won't make any sense. Remember we're in this together! You got this girl. And one more thing: you ARE going to get married. And he's going to love you for YOU. And if he's a good man (which he will be), he will encourage you through your doubt. Again, you got this girl!

Dear Soror,

Don't be too hard on yourself. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies.

I lost 11 pounds over this summer but it was tough. I had to count calories like a crazy person. Hang in there and you'll reach your goals.

And, as tough as it was/is, I had to learn to face some 'demons' to understand what was 'eating at me' so that I could stop 'eating' if you know what I mean.

It will be OK. My best advice to see a doctor so that he/she can recommend a healthy diet and nutrition regime for you.
