  • Totally lost myself for the past three days...

    Hello All,

    I was doing well and had never done well on any diet ever before. However, I let things in my life over the past week or so tear me up and tear me down. So, now I can be in the STAC club because here I am tonight, ready to tackle day 1 again tomorrow. I cannot believe I have eaten all these low-carb (totally out of control portions) and franken foods for three days. I feel like poo. I am starting over tomorrow.

      What a coincidence, I'm here once again, and I know how you feel. I've been in pooland for about 17 months, and I watched all the hard work I did the first time go right down the drain. Don't let it happen! Everyone has days they just can't believe they did something. Get right back up and dust yourself off, hun. I know you have to feel better than you did 40 pounds ago! Keep that in the front of your mind, and don't look at what you have left to lose, just keep telling yourself that every pound you lose is one less you need to lose. Smile, love yourself even with your imperfections and put your best foot forward every day.

              Yep, it is minute by minute right now which sucks because it was so much easier before life started screwing with me. I am an emotional eater and I have to unlearn that habit now!

                    This minute is fine for me. Im about to look for some lunch. Keeping pretty busy today.

                    I was in a coffee mood so induldged in some with minimal splenda and a tbls of cream. Im about at the stage where I can have it without any sweetner and a touch of cream. I am not feeling any effects of it messing with my blood sugars. A good thing!

                      Welcome back! Minute by minute is better than second by second....I'm right there with you with the emotional eating/stress eating -- feeling extra good or feeling bad-- I reach for..........a hard boiled egg and 2 oz. of cheddar cheese! Hang in there and keep sharing - it helps me to hear what everyone else is dealing with -- I'm right there with you.

                            Oh, I totally want to be Drew. I swear, sometimes I think she is the perfect image of a girl to me. Weird huh?
