Weight-Loss No binge, no purge - one day at at time.

Weight-Loss
No regrets today.
No binging, no purging, no regrets sounds excellent to me :)
I know my posts probably get pretty repetitive and boring, but they are important to me. Not bingeing is very important to me, and I am always fighting it back, some days are harder than others, but the desire is always there. Never seems to go away, unless I am asleep anyway.
That´s what this thread is for, no? The more repetitive, the better you´re doing. You don´t have to make it more exciting by sometimes binging ;)
I may have a hard time not binging after my sister leaves, simply because I suddenly have the opportunity again. In England I didn´t have the secluded space for it, this week I didn´t have the alone time but starting this afternoon I´m going to have to rely on myself again.
 
You got this LaMa and remember you are not alone we are here . Rob I can’t think of a better repitive thread for us all .
trying for a good day today
 
Way overdid it on chocolate caramels. 230 g or so. Been very good during my 2-week vacation so I´m not upset about it as long as it doesn´t turn into a multi-day binge (my guts are, but that´s another matter).
 
Hey LaMa, 1/4 kilo of chocolates sounds like a binge to me. Be careful, I hope it doesn't turn into a repeated thing. You can do this girl!

No binge here, but when I had my cheese and cracker snack tonight I sure didn't want to stop at my 4 cracker limit. I did though.

Lets not binge tomorrow.

Oh, it probably was. At least the second half. The first I ate slowly and mindfully. But I´m still ok with it if it doesn´t continue today. It´s just nothing compared to what I used to have for a binge so it doesn´t feel too scary. No sweets for me today unless it´s fruit (or that Kaiserschmarrn I´m planning for a meal).
 
LaMa as you say it's all about how you do today forget yesterday now. I admire you can keep sweets in the house . I just can't . Xmas is going to be a huge challenge for me. Rob good work on stopping at the 4 crackers .
 
No binge for me today, and I wasn't too badly tempted.

LaMa, good to see you back on track. Is it harder after the binge? Petal, you can do Christmas, I have confidence. Just plan and do it!

Lets not binge tomorrow.

I can when I´m doing well, but I can´t when I´m tired or frustrated. And you never know when that comes on...

I´m still hesitant to call it a real binge, despite the amount of calories in those chocolates. Let´s compromise on a small one. It´s generally hard to get back into my normal rhythm of daily life and Mondays are always hardest for me anyway so today will be a test of willpower but that´s more to do with being out of everything for two weeks (and not having to COOK for all that time!). I´ve been sick for two weeks straight and had trouble eating enough through most of that so I think it´s normal to eat back some of those calories now. I weigh myself every morning so I know what is and isn´t happening. The goals for today are to make and eat at least one proper home-cooked meal, prep my bean mash for tomorrow´s lunch, and not eat sweets other than fruit and diet coke.
 
Well, I did cook one proper meal, even if the other two were made up of crackers and cheese (no more cheese left :cry: ) and tomorrow I´ll be having a proper breakfast and lunch. The goal is to cook a simple dinner as well, since I´m off work at a decent time. Fresh pasta (from the deli counter), lentils, veggies: shouldn´t take more than 15 minutes despite my slow chopping and inefficient stove.
 
I think you planned your holidays really well, LaMa & gave yourself a chance to recharge before going back to work. Hope your day flies!
 
No binge today, in fact I had the opposite problem, I had to force myself to eat. This is an odd thing for me, completely new. I doubt it will last long...

Lets not binge tomorrow.
 
Pasta here today LaMa but with a bolagnese sauce .
I made some granola bars this afternoon for packing in a lunch bag for my daughter or as a fill me up healthy snack but I need to work out how it affects my plan . It’s packed with nuts and seeds and dark chocolate chips . It made about 20 bars so not too bad . Husband saw them and was happy to hear diabetic friendly ( mostly ) . Oh why am I writing about it In the binge thread -because when I cut them up they left a huge pile of nutty crumble which I started to devour . I did stop and put all that crumble in the bin . But I could have cleared the lot if it .

Well done! I did not stick to my plan of cooking dinner after getting home - because I was later than I´d thought and I was exhausted - but I did switch up my plan for tomorrow to still work in the same meals. I had sushi for dinner (plus three crackers with hot sauce and a bit of sausage because I was still hungry an hour later) today instead of tomorrow so tomorrow I´ll have that pasta for breakfast, my soy flake mixture for lunch, and bean mash wraps for dinner. I did not binge, despite going off plan.
 
I did stop and put all that crumble in the bin
Good for you Petal, nothing wrong with a treat now and then, but knowing when to stop is important. You did!

Not bingeing is important, sticking to a rigid plan isn't.

No binge here today, and my apatite is back, strange as it may sound that makes me feel a bit more comfortable. Not wanting to eat the past couple of days was strange, not something I have felt before.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
So did not binge or purge today. No cravings. Doing great! I hope I do the same tomorrow. I’ll be by my sis at noon. So I might go to Chipotle first and get my meal.
 
Vic, Petal, and LaMa, the ladies have a trifecta! Good for you.

No binge here.

However I spent too much time thinking about the foods I have given up, its been 6 months since I have had a lot of my favorite foods not one cheese burger, bbq rib, or deep fried anything except for the very occasional french fry, and one small onion ring. I can count the french fries I have eaten on one hand. This just begins the list, it goes on and on. At times I sure miss this stuff, but not eating all that crap has paid off, I hope to continue.
 
Just checking in. Looks like everyone has been good =)

I binged yesterday on a bag of chips - but allowed myself them since I was sick this week.

Today has been OK - in part because I have been feeling a bit sick as I have started on a new medication. It may impact weight but let's see.
Just need to slowly get back into exercise. Eating has been on track for the most part. Not buying nuts or chocolate as of late.
