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

Weight-Loss
Thanks Petal, and I am happy to hear that you did well yesterday. I really like ham, but have not had it in a while, may pick some up for the vacation. A small slice as an evening snack seems a good idea.

No binge here yesterday, and again I felt pretty full particularly after my evening calorie catch up snack. I guess I am working up the courage to increase my regular meal calories to the point that I don't need such a big evening snack. Its a process.

Let's not binge today!
 
Yes we are recommended to have a piece of ham or a skinless chicken drumstick ( keep some cooked in the fridge ) for a snack if peckish .
If I had easy access to cake or good icecream or sweets right now I would delve in .
However I have my little choc biscuit still to eat so a cup of tea and that may suffice .
Wish i was a size 10 ( uk) and had the metabolism of a race horse . Lol
 
Good that you stopped LaMa .as I said if I had access to it I would have had .
How do you feel after blow outs like that . I actually feel horrible , very lethargic and terrible indigestion. I try to think of that before I eat. Doesn't always work though.
 
Good for you both, Petal and LaMa, not bingeing despite challenges! LaMa, too much ice cream as you describe it may not be good for the diet, but its not as bad as a binge. Petal, I have been eating a little chicken, but like the taste of ham better. I will have to try a ham snack. Sorry you are not feeling well, but I understand what you are saying about that not stopping you from eating, it never did me.

No binge here yesterday, but I did eat a larger than normal evening snack. I needed to so I could get up to my calorie goal, need to do a little better meal planning... Oh well, things are about to change.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
Sounds good Petal, happy that you were not feeling bad. I have to say I have an iron stomach, I can eat most anything in most any quantity and still feel fine, physically anyway. Not a trait that has served me well...

No binge here yesterday, but I am still thinking the evening snacks are feeling a bit binge like. Last night mine was a lot of peaches sliced up, mixed with low fat yogurt and some chocolate flavored protein powder. I put it in the freezer and make a kind of ice cream textured thing of the mix. It felt like eating a big bowl of ice cream, quite decadent. I am also not usually hungry for my evening snack, really just eating to bring my calories up. Eating ice cream without being hungry can feel a bit binge like, even if it is part of my planned diet... As I try to move into a more "normal" eating pattern I will try to eat more calories in my regular meals and save fewer for the evening snack and will see how that feels. As to real bingeing, I did not have strong urges yesterday, but I am always having the feeling I could eat more at the end of any meal. No matter how much or little I eat, I need to be sure the end is planned...

Let's not binge today.

Sounds sensible to me. And nothing wrong with thinking ahead about how much you want to eat!
 
Thanks LaMa, it will be a challenge, but something I have to do. And I am sure I will be the better for it. A kind of new adventure.

No binge here today, too busy to think much about food. Still eating loads of peaches and will have one last big peach/yogurt/dust snack tonight, already prepared and calories counted!

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
Well done on not binging Rob . Years ago I used to save all my calories for night time snacks but unhealthy ones. You are doing great
 
I'm not exactly binging but overeating every day. The drama with S combined with F's upcoming visit means I'm more stressed than I should be and I'm finding it hard to eat normal meals at normal times.
 
Hey LaMa, sorry things are stressful, I hope things settle with S, that is no fun. But as you know overeating a bit is not as bad as bingeing.

Thanks Petal, and yeah it can be tempting to save the calories for evening snacks, but I am not sure its a good idea. How did you stop doing it?

No binge here yesterday, it was a busy day and temptations were limited. I did eat a big lunch and lots of peaches for dinner, but I think things were ok in the end.

May not be able to check in for a while, so let's not binge this week!

It´s done now, and I´m mostly relieved. We´d been getting on each other´s nerves too much for too long. In the end we just don´t agree on very many things outside of "exercise and fresh air are fun".
 
Lama I think the fact you feel relieved is a sign it was time to let it go .
Rob my plan sort of ensures I eat well during the day really . I try to not eat now after my last meal of the day . Mostly I succeed
 
Lama as this was yesterday I’m sure it’s behind you and I’m here with my tail between my legs after similar .

had a really horrid day in work . Got landed with stuff that I should not have to worry about . My work is so so behind . Was tired and anxious and I definitely binged on chocolate. But I drew a line after it , put on my trainers and went for a walk and dragged my son for company . Ate a proper meal when I got back . I’m guessing I ate about 800 Cals that I am not supposed to .
 
good you did not have a blow out . Me either . Trying really hard this week ahead now . It will be testing
