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

Weight-Loss
I did not binge yesterday but like LaMa I had one chocolate thing . Oh yes LaMa haribos are binge food best to not buy them.

Rob binging was never about hunger really. For me it was filling a void. Or calming a stress or a upset. Or when I feel things spiral out of control. Lots to work on and will power is really having to come in play here. I bet a lot of my weight is from binges because my core meals were normally pretty healthy.

I'm now trying to add a little activity to my no binge daily . With you guys here I will get it x

Well done everyone you are all rocking this. Seems it's really helping your weight LaMa
 
Well had cravings last night of tortilla and cheese. Sometimes with the turkey bacon. Ended up a binge late last night.

Hopefully today I will not binge!

Well done! Did you do anything specific to avoid binging or was it pure will-power?

I think so. My willpower has increased a little with weight loss and has come in the form of increased confidence with my progress and just knowing I'll be alright (emotionally) with time.

Today, I was hungry all of a sudden and for lunch, I ate about 1000 calories. I think I needed it from the exercise and my hunger has subsided. I wasn't shoveling down food to quell any emotions. It was just hunger and while I try to aim for about 300 calories less for lunch, I think this was normal. Please excuse the deliberation here, I'm still trying to figure out what my normal is.
 
Had a good day yesterday too . Hope today will be even better. Busy is good Rob.
Well done everyone.

Vic hope today was a great day for you
 
Today´s turning out to be a hard one. My skin trouble is mighty frustrating in and of itself, and it´s keeping me from doing much, which makes it worse. I´m not binging but I am grazing. Haven´t got anything too dangerous in the house and I´m refusing to go to the little Turkish store a couple of blocks away (the only place open on Sundays) because there´s no way I could go there and not buy a big bottle of diet coke. And the fact that I want diet coke so badly means I shouldn´t be having it. Especially when I´ve already been so restless lately. So... no binge so far but not the best eating day. Crackers with garlic dip and pickles for lunch, largish amounts of frozen mango for a morning snack and now again for dessert. Breakfast was good though: quesadilla with blue cheese, butter beans, and plenty of veg.
 
Lama at least you are grazing on frozen mango . Could be a lot worse . Don’t go to the shop . What is dinner plan ? Could you cook something that would really fill you and be enjoyable ?
 
I overate. May or may not count as a binge. I´m happy I didn´t eat sweets and will try to do better tomorrow.

Hey LaMa, why not drink some diet soda? Would a cup of tea or coffee suffice? Hang in there, you can do it.

The only diet soda available here that´s halfway palatable is diet coke and they don´t have it in caffeine-free. Not good with caffeine in general and I´ve been jittery for weeks now. Blood pressure´s up, too. I think I really did eat relatively few (for me) calories this week and the frustration and forced inactivity because my skin did the rest. It happens.
 
Sounds like you managed ok Lama . I think staying off sweets is brillaint . If we manage to do that I Ended up cooking a snack which I pulled off the plan late this eve as I was really hungry . I didn’t eat a huge amount over the day so I figure that and with walk I may have been hungry . The toaster was calling as was more cheese or cereal . But I cooked some egg noodles in some chicken stock , fried some onion red pepper ginger and chilli , bit of the roast chicken I made today , little dash of soy sauce and honey and presto we had a snack In about 10 mins or less .
 
Well the day is ending. I’m not planning on eating anything else. But I’m having cravings of the tortilla and cheese that I still have left in my fridge. I’m trying hard to say no. Let’s see what happens tonight.
 
No binge here, not even a lot of temptation today.

Vic, you are doing great, let us know how the rest of your evening went. Like Amy says, lots of people are pulling for you. Petal, save me some of that chicken and noodles, it sounds great. LaMa, I think you are ok, just overeating is different from a binge, I think it is anyway. I can see this binge thing is not black and white, its not always clear.

Let's do it again tomorrow.
 
I binged yesterday. Badly.
