I've been kidding myself a lot lately. I keep telling myself that its ok to go eat out if I watch what I eat the rest of the day, I can have this Mt. Dew if I cut my dinner in half, I'll just walk an extra mile this morning to make up for whatever else I decide is ok to eat. The truth is none of it is ok for me. I can't eat fast food, I can't eat pop, chips candy bars ect. Once upon a time 10 years ago I could. I played soccer and was in great shape, I had a very physical demanding job when I was in my early 20s and I could get away with eating whatever I wanted. Now I go to school, I stay at home with the kids. I don't train for soccer I don't work outside all day like I used to. And as much as I'd love to stay on a 3,000 plus calorie a day diet I just can't. I could, but for how long? When is this all going to catch up to me? 10 years ago I'd never believe that I would one day be this 100 lb over weight woman. Never!!

We've all done that before; made "deals" with ourselves. I'll have an extra-double-triple serving of cookies and not have dinner! ...which is not healthy... It is good that you are realizing all of this, now you just need to think of what you are going to do to change it! For me, it's planning out my calories in advance, that way I know how much I can splurge. Take for example today, if you look at my diet calendar it is all filled out except for lunch, because there is a luncheon at work, and I have no idea what is being served... But I do know I can have about 500 calories worth of food. I know you'll find something that works Ericam16, just don't get discouraged and don't give up!

Thanks! I just finally was able to face why I'm not loosing weight despite all my exercise. That's a good idea to plan out food for the day. I'll start doing that.
