thsiun's Journal, 30 July 2017

Can't believe myself! I was doing so well all week long and when it comes to weekends, I behave like a child with the Golden Ticket in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory. I was eating absentmindedly all day long, totally went off my plan. When it just happened, I was able to stop, reassess, make adjustment on my plan accordingly. However, as the day progressed, I was out of control. Before I realized, it was already too late, I ate so much that I couldn't even remember what I had! I'm not done yet, I then said to myself, "What the heck...", gave myself the okay to eat even more. I know I'm going to feel it tomorrow, oh no, I'm actually already feeling it now... on top of the physical discomfort, I'm feeling the pain, the guilt, the remorse, the blame, the shame... (sigh) the ups and downs of the weight loss rollercoaster...

Aww, Thsiun! What if this is all a primal attempt at self care?

Very similar to the "free fall" I experienced this week. Maybe it's the weather? Now, I know if I do not have a plan to keep busy, this is a potential problem. Could it be that the weekend is a "diet off" as well as a day off?

How?! I wasn't hungry and I wasn't stressed, bored, or excited... I just don't get it 🤔 out of habit, maybe?

That happens to me. I don't think it's unusual. If I can get back on track the next day I just wait 3 or 4 days before weighing myself again.

Don't beat yourself up about it - there are times when you'll fall off the wagon, so to speak. I've decided that I can't do cookies or candy - when I eat them, I just want more! So - pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and resolve to be more cognizant of the times you do get out of control. :) We've all been there!

but the feeling is just awful... you tried so hard for so many days and then wham! you feel like a loser.

@houseshu I agree, weekends are off days. My son told me let today be a cheat day. But then I would have eaten something I really like, maybe a cheesecake, not just ANYTHING.

I feel the same... I think "it won't matter..." and enjoy eating something and then feel a ridiculous amount of remorse and guilt. But you've got to just say tomorrow I can do better :-) and one day "out of control" isn't the end.

Three months ago I was 30 days out of control- pretty much everyday. Now, I'm operating at about 85% - that's pretty good.

You should never feel bad,guilty or a loser, or remorseful, You , WE are ALL on a journey together, sometimes peaks, sometimes valleys, and then the past is over and your journey goes on.

Thanks everyone. I was waking up th is morning expecting a huge gain but it was "only" +1.4 lb from last Friday.I'll take it. I'm still ecstatic that so far I'm down 1 dress size and took 2 inches off my hips. A pair of shorts I bought online a month ago has to be returned because it was too big :) it wasn't easy but FS is what keeps me going. Good luck to you all in your journey, no matter how long it would take, we all experience the same ups and downs. Happy Monday!

It's ok! We have all been there. If you're like me, you used to eat like that all the time...during the week AND the weekend. You had a great week of healthy eating, so that's a GREAT thing. Forgive yourself and move on.

Exactly, shake it off and start anew! Next weekend go into it prepared, get something healthy you really like to eat. I made zucchini brownies this weekend - fast to make and really chocolaty - 2.something carbs each.

It'll be ok! You didn't let yourself slip because you're stopping yourself now. One "bad day" won't undo your progress. You've got this under control! :)
