BuffyBear的日记, 2013年05月19日

OK, try to think about what you are reaching for.. What is it in the evening that you are munching on? Is it in your diet or is your diet restricting those things? Maybe change your diet plan? Maybe go get safe snacks for the evening. Maybe? just trying to help:-( Put hubby on a diet too and throw all of it out, wait that might get ya a divorce ... hang in there buffy, your ready, put it on paper, we might have good suggestions with a little more info?  

PS, I did it last night, I almost ate the whole bag of crap pretzels I only intended to have one serving. But I gotta get back up, even thought I feel like puke... Hug 

I did it too. Bought a box of mini eclairs and told myself I'd just treat myself occasionally to two or three. Ate six. Took me over my RDI but maintained my sodium max okay. I feel like there has to be allowance - if I go over my RDI 2 days a week but stay under 5 days a week... it will average out. Slower weight loss, sure, but less tightness of mind. Then today I feel motivated to make better choices. One moment at a time.  

I wish I had some words of wisdom, but I've been there many times myself & sometimes all you can do is ride the wave, take it one day at a time & think of each day as a new start. It helps me to read (I'm currently reading "Binge No More: Overcoming Disordered Eating" & highly recommend "Eat What You Love, Love What You Eat") and to change things up, which I do by the cleanses but could just be a temporary (or not) diet plan change. Hang in there, my friend! 

Wanted to give a big thank you to you all. I resisted the urge last night and feel much better about myself today.  

Way to go, Buffy! It's been difficult for me to get back on track lately, also, I completely understand. One day at a time, ya know? Hang in there! 

Hi Buffy, I think we are all having our share of issues, but as long as you keep looking for ways to overcome them, success is just a matter of time. Hang in there, and keep fighting the good fight; you'll win. :-) 

Buffy, don't be so hard on yourself...you are doing really well; a lot better than me. I gained back ALL the weight that I had lost, 15 pounds! If we take 2 steps forward and 3 steps back it's ok, we can always start over anytime. It is a lifestyle change. I began walking today and am determined to stay focused this time around. We can do this!!! 

Hi Buffy, glad you did well last night. I'm struggling too with the snack monster. Must be all this springtime fun we are having! 

I definitely have "issues" at night, too. I think a change in evening routine is in order for me....any kind of different, strange, mixed-up switcheroo will do - LOL!!! But seriously, I'm working on just doing ANYTHING differently after dinner to get me out of that problematic rut. I've even considered having my usual breakfast for dinner, just to see if it might make a difference (haven't tried that yet, though). Congrat's on getting through last night the way you wanted to. I know you'll find your answers/solutions! 

I was a crunch monster myself last night. Figured it was better to feed me Sami chips than let loose on the nuts. Anyway, that's what I told myself. Stress eating is what I chalked it up to. I hope I do better tonight too. We just can't give up on ourselves. 

Hey, come on! At least "you" are still in the yellow. Anyway, you got me into this Challenge, so let's get going here. 

I believe success is obtained by continuous effort and not by perfect adherence to the plan. It does not matter how many times I fall, what is important is how many times I get up. I proud of you for continuing the race to good health.
