HerStrawberri's Journal, 28 August 2011

So much for not feeling bad about splurges. I had a huge slurge yesterday AND today. I don't care about yesterdays, and AT FIRST I didn't care about todays. But now I do. My whole body feels lethargic and just yucky. I'm mentally beating myself up and I hate it. I KNOW in the big scheme of things...it's NOT a big deal. I also know it's simply redic to be so upset. Maybe it's other things. Maybe it's just the food in me, making me feel so yucky mentally and physically.( I can't spell. ) All I DO know is I feel like C-R-A-P. This is the first weekend in a LONG time I splurged this much. =(

Ok, so, YEAH I'm whining about my food. So what. I'm feeling really sad today and this isn't helping. =(

To many carbs. Thankfully i walked alot today and will the whole week. It is what it is. I'm holding myself accountable for it and i WILL move on. Everything I put into my mouth is in my food diary. Please don't judge people.

Tomorrow is a new day. This is NOT the end of the world. The next time i want to go crazy I will remember this feeling. Have i left anything out? I'm trying to remember all the encouraging things i say to others who feel this way. =(

Honestly, I'm not even sure if it's my food that is making me feel this way. I'm just SAD. I'm using that as an excuse, i think, because I don't realy KNOW what 'it' is. =(

Look, sweetie, emotional eating is what got most of us to the point we are at today. If you beat yourself up over the emotional eating, it's going to trigger yet more of the same. You slipped. It's okay. We all slip. You recognize that you made a mistake with your food intake. The hardest thing, in my opinion, is finding an outlet for the emotions that does not involve food. I have struggled with that my entire life. You can do this! One minor misstep should not ruin the entire dance! Finish strong!

BTW.. I checked out your intake. Please don't be so hard on yourself for that little slip up! Girl, I had 3000 calories Friday. *smiles* I'm not kicking myself over it. It happened! I'm human! Yesterday was back on track and so was today.

I'm not judging you...I'm not even gonna look :) But as someone who used food to cover up my pain - this can easily spiral out of control. Large quantities of higher carb foods, will retrigger the internal mechanisms to want MORE. It's biological. Hormonal. And Metabolical. All at the same time. So, if I were you...I would do you a big favor...and focus on everything you've done RIGHT with these changes. How good it's been making you feel to be accomplishing these changes... and then go do some homework or something! Take your mind off of this.. and just know you might continue to feel these urges or cravings for the next couple of days. Watch for them. Remain in control of them. Say NO and cleanse your system again by eating a clean induction menu... and you'll be back to your former self in a couple of days! Much Love.

You have had quite a week - EMIL, new school, things are changing! They say to think about making major changes in you life like redecorating. Let's say you take a look around your apartment and decide that the furniture all has to go that it is time for a change so you carry it all out to the curb. But you haven't had time to get new furniture yet. Pretty soon you are going to want to sit down some where, or have something to eat so slowly you go out to the curb and bring some of those old things back in! You need to develop new coping mechanisms for when things hit the fan!! I just bought my self a new bike - and for me that gives me an hour away from everybody and everything. Total me time, where I can feel the sun on my face and the wind in my hair. When I come back I am calmer and I feel proud that I did something for me!! Like you I physically feel terrible when I eat the old crappy food that I used to rely on for comfort. I just don't want it anymore! Neither to you!!! You can do it!!!! Tomorrow is another day!

(((((HUGS)))) I couldn't say it better than your other buddies did. Our bodies can be very forgiving, and don't forget about last week when you only got 600 calories in? Take a moment for yourself, soak in a hot tub or under the shower and release and let go. Start your clean eating, no matter how hard it is at your next meal. A few more days and you will be feeling better. Plus, I'll need your help in case I'm feeling the same way. I totally agree with jsfantome, "Large quantities of higher carb foods, will retrigger the internal mechanisms to want MORE. It's biological. Hormonal. And Metabolical. All at the same time." That is totally what happens to me, and usually, prior to consuming higher carbs, or "danger" foods, that diet devil (an inner voice), gives me every possible reason/excuse I need to eat it. Hang in there my friend.

Thanks everyone. I'm good now. totally over it. It was eaters remorse. LOL. Re-reading this...it makes me cringe. I thought my brunch at cracker barrel was going to be worse then it was. I enjoyed it, though, so really....I don't care anymore. Thank you everyone for the wonderful words of encouragment!
