Once again I didnt make it through the weekend. I am so discusted with myself. I am doing a great job of maintaining but I will never get anywhere doing this. I did great up until Saturday evening. I ate some fruity pebbles.... I don't even like fruity pebbles all that much. Then I had some chips and a baked potato and sweet tea. I did fine all day Sunday until that evening and I had some more fruity pebbles and I made popcorn and had a coke. I know I have been really stressed lately but I can't let that affect my eating. I know this weight gain is water so I am not going to record my weight until tomorrow. I heard on the radio this morning about a girl who hit a horse over the weekend and was killed. I am so thankful that hitting that cow only took out my car and not me. I think I know this girl that was killed. I really hope its not her but she has a unique name and this is a small town. :( People need to keep their animals in their pastures. My ordeal is most likely not going to work out well. I don't want to sue anyone. I probably don't have a case. I would have to prove that the farmer was negligent and that that was why his cow was out - plus I don't want to sue my neighbor. Maybe he will be a nice guy and help me out... but I doubt it. I don't really know how I feel about it. I know things happen and cows get out but I feel like the law is wrong for not requiring insurance to pay for damages caused by said livestock. At the same time I hate to make the farmer pay for it when its not like he let his cows out on purpose. Maybe I just need to say - sh*t happens and move on.... although I'm not sure how to do that when I don't have a decent car to get to work in anymore. Uuuuuggg now I am making myself depressed and sad again. On the up side - I went fishing Sunday. We could drive up to the powder sand but were afraid to drive on that part in case we got stuck. So we walked about ..... idk.. maybe 400 yards or so to a good fishing spot. I waded in water about knee high to get to the good spot. It was a little scary because the river current was pretty swift and if I fell I was only about 5 feet from a big drop off into deep water - but I can swim. I caught one itty bitty channel cat but got a ton of good bites. My step brother caught about a 3 pound blue cat and my step mom caught a little bitty one too. Then my brother caught a soft shell turtle but he hooked him in the side of his shell and it was really easy to get the hook out and let him go. I was glad. I love turtles and it is so sad when they swallow the hook and you can't get it out. Anyways we had a blast. Maybe all that exercise will burn off the weekend carbs.

I feel your pain ladies, assuming I make it to tomorrow unscathed this will be the first week I have been "sober" the whole time for a while. Riding the roller coaster sucks and I hear your distress. Remember, one minute at a time, one hour at a time, one day at a time. Hang in there........

Hey, hey Amanda. Looks like you hasd a great time fishing. Wish that there was something that I could tell you t help you through the weekends, but I can't. This is a battle that you have to fight, and win. Perhaps if you kept something else that you really like to snack on, and used that. Or use pork rinds. When I crave popcorn, I melt some butter, pour it over the rinds, add some salt and eat it like popcorn. For a sweet treat, same hing except I replace the salt with Splenda and Cinnamon. I am thinking about trying a syrup made from the Torani SF carmel syprup, butter, and cinnamon, heating it to boiling and seeing if it will taste like Cracker Jacks or butter toffee popcorn. I am also going to use that over a cheese cake, and see if it is like a flan! There are lots of thing that you can do, but you need to be prepared. Only YOU can do it! Hope the exercise helped...PS..I posted a reply to you topic post. The topic subject itself isn't there anymore, but was still on my fat secret page, so I got the gist!

And joe, congrats, that is a huge accomplishment. Getting back on track and STAYING there after a slip is the hardest thing to do!
