    Im so UPSET w/ myself!!!!!

    I wanted to post yesterday in hopes that it would not be a negative rant.....but the thought escaped me and here Iam. Im totally discouraged. I have been on a fabulous path, doing so well. This weekend I went to Napa and it all went downhill and I have yet to put on the brakes. I want to make a life-change and that is how Im viewing this all but I seem to really be on a role...and I mean a roll with the fork. TOM came yesterday, but last month I was fine so Im wondering, why all of a sudden am I giving into my desires? I want to get on path and am feeling like a big loser.. UGHHH I feel frazzled. Any advice would be wonderful or words of encouragement.....
    Big love...

    Im wondering, why all of a sudden am I giving into my desires?
    That's a question that only you can answer unfortunately. I think this is a good time for you to reflect and reassess your priorities. Take a step back and ask yourself what you really want and what you are willing to do (and not do) to get it. I know its hard but you came here and reached out and that's a good start at least. Take a look around, read some success stories and tips, go back and reread your DANDR. You need to get yourself psyched for this. Make a commitment to yourself. You can do it!

      "giving in to your desires"......what DO you desire? if you started atkins, then i THINK you desire to be thinner and healther. there is real truth in the saying " nothing tastes as good as thin feels." get BACK on that fabulous path. you know you can do it. how badly do you want it? for me, zipping up my size 6 skirt feels so much better than anything i can think of to eat. you are worth it!

        Tinkie, I myself am a struggler. I have tried this WOL many times and have thought in the past, I will never be able to have Dairy Queen, pancakes, cake, or ice cream again and that thought makes me depressed. This time I am taking it one day at a time not looking into the future just trying to make it through today and it is helping me a lot. You can do this, try the day by day thing.

          You've got a great advise here, I just want to add to give yourself a moment to be very honest with yourself and your goals. Journal and focus on those goals!

            I just want to add that your PMS will probably vary in intensity from month to month.. this is probably a bad month. Next month may not be as bad. Start today anew and don't look back. You can do this. Sometimes we stumble but what matters is that we get back up and keep going.

                  I can't help but notice that your siggy says that you are still on induction and loving it. Maybe your body is not loving it so much. Maybe it is time to move up the carb ladder so you have more choices. No need to stay with induction until your body rebels.

                  Induction is not the whole adventure! There are a lot of great foods out there just waiting on you to try them!

                    WOWSA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so astonished at all of your beautiful words and seriously I reflected for 2 days on what my goals and my "desires" were/are and re-evaluated lots of stuff. I have come to the conclusion that I need to handle this head on and realize that it is a life change and to not think about the yucky stuff Im giving up, but the new stuff (me included) I will experience. Regarding induction..I really do love it, in the sense that I for the most part do not get bored. I will switch within the next 2 months, after I've had some time to review OWL. In any case..lost the 2.5lbs I gained this past weekend/Monday and I have been on track now. Seriously THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart and I want to zip up a size 6 too and I will.
                    Big lovies to you!!! xoxo
                    Again..thank you, I have been re-reading these messages now for a couple days and reading some success stories and good luck to you all. SHould anyone ever want to chat, holla!
                    I think Im starting to feel alive again, and it's not because I can see my feet either, it's just cause Im that sensible........:valentine:valentine:valentine

                      great attitude tinkie.....so many of us DO have those days where we wish we could be "like everyone else" and eat what we want and sometimes feel sorry for ourselves if we feel "deprived".....generally it is a temporary feeling. when that happens, stop and reflect on the old you, how you felt and looked and the level of energy or lack there of....you will realize that what you are doing NOW is not depriving you of much and the benefits FAR outweigh what you are giving up. (which really is not all that much!)

                      keep that good attitude and come here and read often and you'll see that lots of us go thru that, we talk it out, we refocus, are off and running and GLAD OF IT! keep us posted!

                          Re: Im so UPSET w/ myself!!!!!

                          for me , i was doing so well, i had not had a slice of pizza or a piece of bread from 9/1/2007 to 7/17/2008.

                          I feel down for 3 days hard and gained weight, felt sluggish, could not exercise, i was depressed and down on my self.

                          then i told someone and they told me to walk , i walked 3 miles and i felt much better.

                          Every time I beat myself up , i should walk 3 miles. I think i will stop beating myself up.
