Onwards and upwards...

I'm just considering it a lost weekend. I can't withstand the sight of cupcakes and cookies for long before I crumble. What happens at the mid-way reunion stays at the reunion. That food never happened. Lalala.

Correction: what happens at the mid-way reunion comes home with you and shows up as 5 lbs on the scale! At least in my case. Heh.

It annoys me that every time I push myself to my absolute limit, and am suffering much muscle pain, I gain a 1/2 pound. Logically, I know this is water weight or muscle weight, but every once in awhile I'd like to see a different immediate result. Luckily, about 4 days after that, when I get on the scale I usually see a 4-5 pound loss (if I am successful at putting the peanut butter spoon down that week. The peanut butter addiction doesn't make me gain weight, but it slows me down). I am just a little impatient.

Have a happy and healthy day all!

drinking plenty of water instead of alcohol!

I was dealing with heavy emotions this weekend which lead to emotional eating. Wow, I am paying for it. I feel like I ate a brick and I feel so disgusted. It's funny how I eat to make myself "feel better" when it only makes me feel 1,000 times worse. Going out for a long walk or run would have totally helped alleviate my stress, but I turned I food. Ugh. Anyways. Needed to vent.

Hugs to all!

I completely understand.. I have been emotional eating lately to "deal" with the things that are bothering me. It is nothing new to me... However, lately, I have been eating over Little things, instead of the big triggers that used to send me into an emotional eating overload... I am thinking I have too much time on my hands and too relaxed. I did hop on the scale before posting, and even though I have not been strict OR working out, I have lost another 2 pounds. I am "ok" with this, however, I know if I would just get off the stick and work harder, it would be coming off faster and easier, AND I wouldn't feel like a slug.
