I've fallen away (again) from no S. Just eating too much and I think I'm at the highest I've ever been (186).

Congratulations for your success and thank you so much for your input on these boards. It's reassuring to know that it can be done and without losing your mind or beating yourself up for every "failure". I love that you are appreciative of your body. It's easy to be hard on ourselves, but really we ...

At a restaurant in a city I was visiting, I ordered breakfast (eggs, bacon, etc.) and they served it with some salad greens. It was so good with breakfast! Thanks for the reminder. I do drink green smoothies for breakfast sometimes. I love them. Premier protein (from ww days I bought them) whirred u...

For me, holding on to feelings about how I look and then depriving myself until I look "better" is a negative experience. Remembering how my body physically feels after overeating, and taking steps to avoid those sick / painful feelings feels like I am caring for my body and myself. What a really g...

That is where I would love to be as well! I feel on edge when people talk about their diets at work now. I just smile and nod and try to change the subject as soon as I can. I have always thought I'd like to be like my ex sil. She was overweight at one point, then she lost it. She never dieted. We'd...

Thanks. I'm less of a type a about keeping track of things but I can see how not weighing is maybe not facing reality. I did step on the scale. Yikes! 179 lbs. I'm 5' 7. I'm glad I did it and I actually don't feel the desire to run back to ww after all. I think I do want to check my meals for nutrit...

Scale poll
Just wondering who weighs themselves regularly and if you alter your eating because of the result you see on that scale (as in, "I'm up 3 lbs this week, better reduce my portion sizes")

Thanks everyone. A lot to think about. Just for today, I'm going to eat lighter because I want to. My stomach actually does not want to be full. I have been eating really large portions beacause I was such a big snacker that it made me nervous to swear off snacks. I'm beginning to realize that I was...

Starting to freak out
I saw a video of me on fb (thanks sis) and I looked huge! I ate soooo much on my s day birthday (and I have really been eating a lot period, even though I have managed to get quite a few green days. I feel crappy today. What are your suggestions at this point? Is this the feeling that makes you inhe...

Lol. Yep, I had a feeling about the orange cake too. Oh well, had to settle with a free pastry at Panera for my breakfast :wink: Really beautiful day, and I'm headed to the lake for more festivities. I'm exhausted though from digging up an evil rose bush that I've despised for a long time. Looks lik...

Good point. It wouldn't. But I'm afraid if I see a big gain then I'll freak out and start grasping at straws again. Maybe. Maybe not. I'm pretty fed up with the diet stuff. Today was a SUCCESS . This weekend is my birthday so I'm guessing there will be opportunities for goodies (yay actually lol). M...

Skycat, I think it may. I can see it's a slippery slope and I understand this needs to be done as directed. No chocolate sprinkles on my vanilla. I'm going to count on my habitual and here that day as a red day. I hope I do change, I'm afreaid because I'm bad about doing over and over things I know ...

I'm sorry for the pain (mentally and physically)!you have been going through, but I can see you are dealing with it in a very conscious way and I love that. It makes me want to be more in tuned with my own life. I tend to push things down or pretend they aren't there at times. I love your gratitude ...

Thanks, guys. Sorry to be so negative. I've been so cranky lately! I guess I got so fed up with diets that I wanted to be done with even hearing about them! I can remember when people didn't talk about everything they ate or didn't eat. We talked about more interesting things than constant monitorin...

FAILURE Changed from green previously because it wasnt following the s rules fully But not ideal. I had dinner on one plate and no snacks, but before my dinner came out of the oven, I had some cheese and dried salami. I'm counting as green because it was all one meal, but I failed on the one plate ...

SUCCESS I did pretty well today. I made sure everything was on the same plate. I had been using little plates of more than one item, which I figured was the same as being on the same big plate, but after reading more of the book, I think it is important to be on the same plate. It looks like more. ...

Diets, diets everywhere.
I find myself sick of hearing about everyone's diets at work. It's like a constant topic. I guess I understand, but that is what I'm trying to get away from- the constant obsession with dieting. It does make me slightly nervous with everyone losing weight on their carb programs and I feel as if I ma...
