Feeling much better today!

Thank you to everyone who has left me comments! I can't tell you how much everyone's input and encouraging words mean to me!!!

I am feeling much better today...just going to bed helped! Any other previous time I probably would have just pigged out until I felt totally guilty....and would then tell myself, well, there's always tomorrow......Now I think, ok but what about today...why should I mess up everything I have already worked so hard for TODAY! I am pretty proud of myself for controlling myself.....something new to me! Sad huh!!!!!

Ok, I'm off to have lunch...yum, JC Beef Chow Mein!!

love, Jen

absolutely not sad -

Nothing wrong with a change - especially one for the better.. ;)

Congrats..

So glad you're feeling better!

Doesn't it feel great getting up in the morning after saying no to a a night time pig-out?     Woohoo!  So proud of you!  I am in the process of teaching myself that same mindset.    And you know what?  You are so right, Jen: why should we mess up what we have worked so hard at all day long?   Why let 10-20 minutes of hunger or nerves make us binge and spoil it all when it starts getting early evening or night?  

Girl, I would literally turn from Dr. Jeckyl into Mr. Hyde where food was concerned! LOL.  All day long I would do so good, determined not to eat in the evenings, then come 6 or 7:00 when Ryan got home, I suddenly changed into this whole other person, and all I wanted to do was go out with friends and eat or sit home and eat!!  Then, the minute the pig-out was done, I couldn't stand myself.  No more of that, I swear, no more!  I am more determined than ever to get control over that urge.  I've found if I just hang on for those 20 minutes or so when a night craving hits, it actually passes!  It seems like an uphill climb but boy is it ever worth it the next day!  Self-esteem wise and weight wise!

Hope you had a super evening and so excited you kept control!!
