Before After

Made it through

Boy, yesterday way ROUGH! I didn't get much sleep the day before so when I woke up I was grumpy.
 
Food was a big challenge. I ate a double cheeseburger,  fries, (from Wendys) and then later 1 1/2  slices of pizza.
 
I felt so guilty and generally bad. One bad day is not going to ruin my progress and future but I HATE that I was so weak.
 
I  also argued with my sister-in- law. All in all I am glad yesterday is over!!!
I am starting today with a better outlook.

Where are you at with TOM is what comes to mind with the burger, fries and pizza.  Eh, not to mention the disgreement with SIL.
 
Don't beat yourself up over it, pick up and move on.
 
Have a great new week!

oh no

try to forget about it and soldier on!

sleep

You said you didn't get much sleep that night. I hope you made up for it!

Fresh start today!

hugs on a plate

I am an 'emotional eater'.  When i am sad, happy, angry or even tired i turn to food.  I think it is really hard to recognise this.  Here in Britain there is an advert for a cuppa soup - using the catchphrase a 'hug in a mug'.  For me its a 'hug on a plate'.
 
In the past what has helped me is to have treat food stored in the freezer.  This is food i have homemade which tastes great but doesnt feel like diet food, kept in the freezer for emergencies!
 
It would include things like 'pasta bolognaise made with quorn, with low fat cheese melted on top, homemade low fat burger and low fat cheese, pizza - with the base made out of grated potato, very low fat icecream. Pastryless stilton and broccoli quiche - made with cottage cheese, or even egg and oven roasted chips.
 
Keep going - this is such a rocky road.
 
cheers
Alex
