mattstoc's Journal, 25 August 2015

Well last night I let the food monster loose. I ate everything in site. I have no idea how to even try and log it. I may give it a shot later, maybe not. We've lamented this topic before, but just for a little rehash: I have no idea what sets this off, but once it begins, I just lose control. I know I am doing it, I know I shouldn't do it, but I do it anyway. I am so mad at myself.

Ok, now to get off my pity train. You can't unring a bell, so it is time to just get back on it. Get back to work exercising and eating right. Today is the day to get started. No messing around.

Y'all have a great day and please do better this week than I did last night.

I can feel your frustration. I go through similar episodes of just plain hunger and nothing seems to satisfy it. I usually end up binging on nuts and go way over on calories. The key, as you said, is to dust yourself off and get back at it.

Honestly Mattstoc, I think you are going to be OK. YOu are going to get back on the train and you are going to lose the weight, reach the goals you set. You know why I think this? Because you are observing yourself. You may feel guilt or like you are beating yourself up...but to me it sounds like you are moving from being upset with yourself to saying, 'Ok.. I see what happened here, I see that I lost control. I do not know what set it off BUT I am diligently working on it and in a community of caring souls who encourage each other, with many tools to help me. At some point soon I WILL see what sets it off and then I will be even closer to my goal. For now, well I am working on it.' You are going to get there Matt. I really believe it. :)

I do the same thing- I can't even say I'm hungry. I just WANT it! but just remember, you can always get back on the horse......unless....hmmmm:-)

Sounds so familiar... As you said, you can't undo the past: new day-new beginning. Make it a good one!

I'm the same way. Once I mess up, I think that the only way to stop it from happening again is to go ahead and eat up every bad thing in the house so it will be gone.

Thanks all. I did go back and try to log it - Carbs: 316 Calories: 2601. My Diabetes tracker won't even let me enter that many carbs for a meal. HopeFaithLove - At least mine only lasts for a evening.

It happens to everyone sooner or later. You did good...you wrote it down, attempted to log it, didn't beat yourself up for days & restarted. You are a winner with a winning attitude!
