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

Weight-Loss
No, it often isn't, at least not for the interesting person. I'm glad you're finding ways to deal with your challenges though.
 
Ha! Thanks LaMa, guess I am dealing with them one day at a time. This is a lot more work than just eating what I want and getting fat, until I start to do physical labor or walk up the stairs anyway. I was never worried about what I ate, not so preoccupied by it...

No binge today, the big low calorie meals seem to be helping. I do still think about it, and a binge is still never more than 5 min away, its just been easier to resist the past few days.

Let's not binge tomorrow!

Hi. I had a mostly good week but yesterday did not go well on the binge front.
Today is Friday. I want to enjoy eating my three (not necessarily diet) meals, and not use food to self-medicate.
 
Hey Bubbles, good to see you here, I hope today went well for you. LaMa, I am not sure just not bingeing would be enough for me to maintain my current weight, but I am sure I cannot maintain it with bingeing. And I am sure I would not regain as much if I did nothing other than not binge.

No binge here today, it was a busy day, I was out so did not have my usually high veggie lunch, but I did fine, and did have a good high veggie dinner. No strong urges.

Let's not binge tomorrow!
 
77.9 kg this morning. I started the turkey challenge 6 weeks or so ago at 77.0 after having binged somewhat regularly for a while. Kept doing so, then decided to do no-sugar November - and binged on chips instead. Got uncomfortably close to 80 kg, although some of that was water weight. Now it's been 13 days of no sweets AND no chips and I haven't really been tempted to binge once. Slowly starting to see the difference on the scale, which makes me so happy. It doesn't have to go quickly and I don't even have to lose a lot of weight: if I can only stay bingefree life is so much less stressful.

That is great!! And I like your outlook on not having to lose weight quickly.

No binge here today, and I continue with the high veggie diet. I am getting more comfortable with it, I am kind of amazed that I actually like the veggies and salad without dressing. It took a while.

Let's not binge tomorrow!
 
Isn't it interesting how much our sense of taste can change?
Today may get difficult for me just because it's a Sunday, there isn't anything fun to do and I have to do some stuff I'm not confidently competent in so I'm a little anxious. Plus it's cold and dark. I can do it though.
 
IIII waaaant myyy Pepsiiii... But I´ve had enough for today so I´m not getting any more. I´m not hungry, nor thirsty or cravy, so there´s no reason to stuff my face.
 
Hang in there LaMa, you are doing great! You can do it, I know you can!

I need to find a way to get off of my diet soft drinks, no calories but I know I drink too many.
 
I´m not yet sure if I want to get off them completely but I definitely want to drink less of them without upping my sugar intake instead. Right now my stomach is grumbling quite a bit (3 pm again) and I´m not sure what I´ll do. I don´t really want to eat yet but at the same time I promised myself I wouldn´t go hungry in my sugarfree month. I already had five figs and a tablespoon of sunflower seeds. Went for a walk. Finished my crocheting. Maybe I should get my chores done just to be sure I´m not procrastinating and trying to eat me out of worrying about that.
 
You´ve mentioned them before but I haven´t seen them here. Could you send me a picture of the packaging?
 
Thanks for the link. Definitely not in normal stores here and not in the smaller Asian grocery stores either but next time I get to the larger one I´ll keep an eye out.
 
Amazing, something more available here in our small rural town than in Vienna! And we don't have a large Asian population. I order the seafood snacks to get the best price and more what I want, selection in our stores is pretty limited.

No binge here today, my high veggie diet continues. I had over half a kg of cauliflower for lunch and a quite large salad without dressing, greens only, for dinner. Its keeping me full, and while not without binge temptation it does keep the craving beat down a bit.

Let's not binge tomorrow.
 
You are still eating other things with those meals, I hope?
I didn't binge today OR go out for extra Pepsi. Had a small handful of extra nuts and a large handful of extra dried fruit, which is fine.
 
Good for you LaMa, no binges are good binges!

No binge here today and no strong urges, though tonight even though I feel quite full I wanted to keep eating. It wasn't hard to resist. I know I need the help of this place to keep resisting, without thinking about it would be so easy to revert to my old eating habits.

Let's not binge tomorrow!
