HerStrawberri's Journal, 08 August 2011

Good Morning everyone! I have been away for a few days but I'm back. My migraine finally broke Saturday. YUCK. That was a BAD one. I'm still feeling 'off'. They can really wipe you out.

SO, my food over the weekend wasn't the best. Saturday night we went to a fair and I shared some food with my P. We had some battered shrimp, apple dumpling thingy with ice cream and a corn dog. We shared everything so i didn't consume all the carbs and cals myself. I honestly have no idea how to put them in my food diary so they aren't in there. I'm putting then in this journal to be accountable. i don't feel bad for eating them though. LOL....maybe that is bad? I don't know. I have stopped beating myself up over eating treats here and there. I don't think it's wrong. I don't eat treats all the time. I also had an italian beef friday night and had the bread. I don't feel bad about that either. Ok, well...maybe I do a little bit. But my cals for friday were still way below my normal amount. They have a new italian beef place here. Being as I'm from the Chicago area, I have a LOVE for good italian beef and WI does NOT have ANY good beefs. This new place was very good though. NOT Chicago Italian Beef good...but good. I feel a *tiny* bit bad for the italian beef but not for eating the apple dumpling thingy with ice cream. LOL. We also brought home this huge ass cream puffs from the fair...i was going to have it saturday night as I already blew my day but I couldn't eat it. My stomach hurt really bad after I had the apple dumpling thing so I had it yesterday. I put that in my food diary...well, the best i could...i found an entry for a cream puff and just put 5 in there as it was really big. So that was my weekend splurge. I will admit it wasn't my best weekend. BUT today I'm back on track and it's really not even a thought in my head. I'm not going to beat myself up over it. All that does is makes me feel so guilty and bad. I have lost 61 lbs and I'm NOt going to feel bad about myself. I have a long way to go and negitivity will NOT get me there. I have enough other crap to beat myself up over....what I'm eating shouldn't be one of those things.

I'm getting close to the start of school. I'm getting really nervous. I have to get my books this week and I have another orientation next week. I'm nervous....but also excited.

My weight only went up a lb from the weekend, which makes me feel good. I was scared getting on the scale. LOL. I did it because I was the one that put that bad food into my mouth and i was prepared for whatever the scale said. I will say, though, I was very happy when i saw it was only a lb up.

I'm sorry for any journals I missed. Hope everyone is doing ok.


**edit** I added the saturday food to the best of my ability. Prob off a bit...but at least it's in there.

I think it is great that you do not feel guilty or bad about eating something that is not part of your plan. Honestly, I hate reading how terrible someone feels when they don't eat 100% perfect all the time... there is no reason to, shit happens, life happens its part of a learning process but I think that shows how far you have come!

Yep! Yep! What Pixi said. It's ok to splurge every once and awhile, and probably better for your metabolism, it shakes it up a bit. We didn't get to be our size from eating a little bit of junk food, kwim? We ate more junk food than healthy food. Now we are eating better and our occasional splurge isn't even noticed. Don't let the sugar and simple carbs affect you mentally. If you start feeling bad and reach for more of the bad stuff, tell yourself that it is just the simple carbs and sugar you ate wanting you to eat more of them. That is what keeps the cycle going (and how we gained weight). Cut 'em off. ;) Drink lots of water and plan, plan, plan for the day. So happy you are feeling better!

Do not beat yourself up at all...you enjoyed a weekend! I know those school jitters you will be fine, and do not forget to take care of yourself when doing all that studying!

It's cool you deserved a day off from overthinking the food and just enjoying yourself. What you did well was hold yourself accountable. So its fine as long as you get back on the health wagon afterwards. Good luck with school!

I agree with everyone else. You have to be able to eat a variety of foods, and it's all about balancing what you are eating into a reasonable level of calories... no one day ever made someone overweight! You are doing amazing!
