How Long Can You Go???

Re: How Long Can You Go???

I'm sorry to report that I am NOT cheat free. It started with a small cheat and escalated in to a binge day...and today I feel physically awful. My stomach hurts so bad. I know it was stress induced, my sister and I took all our kids to Indiana Beach an amusement park 2 hours away alone with my old school pop-up trailer...that I had never set up alone. 1st day I did fine didn't eat much at all because i was so busy taking care of everyone else. at 5 am it started to rain then pour and it alternated raining and pouring until we finally decided we had to try and make breakfast in the pop up and break it down in the rain.

So after I was soaked and stressed at begin unable to get the pop-up down right and messing with just that for over and hour...I saw the box of q-smart bars that I bought as a back up snack/food idea rather than eat funnel cakes...there were 3 left I ate them and then the carb demon was turned on and I will not list the rest of the crap I ate.........Now I pay for it and it wasn't even fun....Now a funnel cake may have been fun....No bad me

So I am here working on earning my 1 st day blinkie...wish me luck

Re: How Long Can You Go???

OK, my turn for confession!

Yesterday morning, the only thing I had time to do was take down my blinky! Meaning...the night BEFORE my anniversery, I had cheated also!

I have been in training ALL week long, and it has really worn me out mentally! Then we went to church BEFORE eating dinner. Got to Culvers at 9 which means that I hadnt eaten in 9 hours... a wee bit longer than planned! So I was RAVINOUS at that point, so I ate food I knew better than to eat! This was no "little" cheat. I did not have sweet food, but I had LOADED carbage thats for sure!

Yesterday was a planned thing, and I knew I was going to cheat! So I did... just that one meal! I had a baked potatoe, and a small piece of cake that the waitresses brought us in celebration!

Today I am back on though! No guilt, no looking back~just toward my
prize(s)!

I hope you all still love me, and will look forward to when I am a little stronger!

Hi everyone! How's the new day going? Stormy here! The temperature has finally fallen and its only supposed to get up to 79 today! I'LL TAKE IT!!!

Becca and Tirtle...Today will be hard, but YOU CAN DO IT!!!! Once that carbage is out of your system, you'll feel alot better. Don't let the guilt monster tempt you into another bad day, no matter how strong the cravings get. We'll be here for you!

Congrats to everyone else on making it through another day!

You're all aces in my book!!!! So Cristy....the dice are in your corner now. You gotta pass that cake by like it were the final exams before graduation! You can do it!!!

I won't let you down, Marion! Sorry you were feeling badly, but I'm glad you made it through the day cheat free!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Sorry I missed posting yesterday. I had another cheat free day and am proud of myself. Yesterday I played 18 holes of golf followed by a luncheon. I had ordered a pork sandwich. It was like a thin butterfly pork chop, and supposed to be on a bun. When I went through the line I passed up the pasta salad, the chips, the cookies, the barbeque sauce, and even the cole slaw (I wasn't sure what it was made with) I'm sure I looked kind of goofy, but I had a piece of pork on my plate and drank plenty of water . I may have looked goofy, but I am happy to report, cheat free!

I'm also thankful to report that we are going to have a cool down today and through the weekend. The 100 degree temps are gone for a bit anyway !

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Just checking in for some motivation before the big office outing today. I am sure looking at all the other girls in their bathing suits will make me feel bad and then binge but I am determined to get through this day without a cheat. I will stick with the shrimp and crabs and nothing else, (not even the buttery sweet corn...)!

Will check in this evening to let you know how I did.

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Another Cheat Free Day down! I'm back to 1 Week. I didn't lose any more weight this morning, but I can sure tell the crunches are doing something. My abs are killing me! My younger DD will be here any time, so will have a busy day and no time to think about cheating. She's 19, in college, and has always been skinny. She doesn't care for all the junk food or fast food that my older DD and I love. OH! Make that USED to love. That stuff is NASTY now, it will me SICK, and it is what made me FAT!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Well I survived another day cheat free, now onto the next. Tonight will be a challenge, but I'm going to stay confident that I will make it another day... cheat free!!!

Ralynda- thanks for the advice on the desserts- I will have to check them out!!!

Starmaker- yeah...I know I'm a glutton for punishment!!! Although, seeing those gooey desserts just makes me want to stay on track knowing that one little slip up will result in DISASTER!!! However, I have to admit that there is one thing and one thing ONLY that is not allowed into my house nor should the word ever be spoken around me-that is PIZZA!!! There I said it now I can move on-LOL!!!!! Hope everyone has a great cheat free day!!!!!!

Re: How Long Can You Go???

Hi Leah and Kislandmom! Leah, you'll get the hang of it. It took me awhile too. I'll adjust your name and days, since I thought you started the other day! Good luck! You can do it!

Kislandmom...Don't worry about those other gals' in their bathing suits! They probaby didn't work for it, like you're going to! And YOU CAN DO IT! IF there's a veggie tray, you can also binge on the celery, broccoli, and cauliflower, up to two cups worth!
