Pathetic Just Pathetic

[kram95]

Yeah another pathetic "Laurie Post"...I was on a roll doing well for the 4th time or so I cant even keep up anymore.I did well through my first 2 weeks lost about 10 lbs.Had my will power back that I had last year.The only thing that I needed to work on was to drink LOTS more H2o (which I love)

Well....The week before Last I was home from wed thru Sunday(i only work typically 2 n half days a week out of town in a group home where I have access to any food I wanna buy or make and it makes it easy to follow things correctly)Anyways At work its so easy for me I can buy the things I need.At home that week I was flat broke (gotta love bills)So I bought lots of eggs to have.Only thing I basically could afford that week.Then Sunday came and I was out of Eggs so I made me a can of soup (i was quite hungry)well gotta have crackers in your soup now dont you??? Well I thought I did.Then back to work on tuesday I did pretty ok...but cravings kicked in.Dont know if it was triggered from those crackers or what but its been a rough week.Then I had in my head well since I blew it a few times whats one more.So My girlfriend and I had income tax money and went out to eat.I went out with a bang last night I guess.

Today once again back on track.Finances have improved so no excuses for me.Not to mention I will b working TONS of overtime in the group home so that also will help me out.Since I get to do the shoppin and cooking.I know since I have the xtra cash when I get home I will do ok.So FOCUSING on drinking lots of h20 (just like I used to at at least a gallon of day if not more)I remember last yr on Atkins how great all the water made me feel.My skin was unbelivably soft which should help this southern girl living in Ohio Country.(skin is sooooooooo dry right now from the cold)

Ok thanks all for letting me go on and on about my failure this week.I am pretty upset with myself.My clothes were at the point they were starting to get loser.And now I guess I shall be starting over again or just trying to get back on track.I think It wont be so discouraging for me If I learn from my mistake but also try not to think about not doing so well the last week.Pretend it never happen and pick up where I left off will probably work best for me.

Also I dont think I am going to weigh myself for a month.I think I can do it.Actually NO I KNOW I CAN.

Thanks to all!
And please send some motivation my way if you have any.It is NEEDED.

Hi, just wanted to post and say good for you for coming here and confessing, and now it is time to move on. YOu know what works so you just got to work it. I know how frustrating it is to have to start over, but for me i love that feeling of control about my food which usually it has been the other way around where food controls me. So all i can say is good luck on your journey and come here and post often everyone here has great advice and understand everything that you are going through!!!!

I am just glad that you are back!!! Everyone messes up sometimes. Don't too bad about it - it happens. The point is that you realized it and your back!!

I know how you feel - I've been right where you were - not too many days ago.

Just take it one day at a time.....
