Vic’s Weight Loss

Well I did give in to my cravings and had pita chips and taboule after dinner.

If you're prone to binges like I am, just having pita chips and taboule to subside the cravings seems pretty good to me. If I've resisted very long and then try to eat a little to get over those cravings, that's when I'm most at risk of eating everything in sight. I can do it better if it's planned and that's partly why tracking is helpful.

Glad to hear you're in a groove. Keep on groovin'! :cool:
 
139.4 lbs!!! Back into the 130s!!! I’m going to stay here! At least for a while.

I’m doing IF again today. Not sure if I’m going to exercise. Hopefully I do it later!

I’m having a coffee with almond milk and Splenda for breakfast. Lunch is spaghetti squash and ground chicken and a salad. Ground chicken will have garlic, carrots, onions, and zucchini. My salad will include lettuce spring mix, cucumbers, red onions, tomatoes.

I am going to make it to 138 tomorrow!!! No binges and no pita chips left. So hopefully no cravings today.

Tomorrow I have my teeth cleaning early in the morning in Bedford at the VA. My brother has to get his medicine there and my mom is coming with us.
 
Well I ended up eating breakfast around 10 am.

Cals:
An egg: 70 cal
1 raisin bread: 80 cal
Almond milk: 10 cal

Breakfast cal total: 160 cal
 
That is excellent work, Vic. I'm proud of you too. Losing weight without purging for a week is something to be very proud of. Well done, hon xoxo
 
Well I messed up tonight. I had a burger and some ribs for dinner. And I ended up purging them. I don’t have anything else in my house to eat that doesn’t require cooking so I’m done for the night. I was doing so good.

My brother leaves next week so i can control what’s in my house then. But I guess I’ll have to go to stx in Oct. Tomorrow I’m buying their tickets. And I’ll be by myself for about 2-3 weeks. Which will be so nice.

SO I am starting over tomorrow. I have my dental cleaning and my brothers medicine at Bedford. My mom is coming with us. Also I left my phone by my sis. I’ll get it tomorrow morning. It has my drivers license but luckily I had a spare credit card in my purse! To get my brother his dinner hence the leftover burger! The cooked ribs were in my freezer!

Time to sleep!!!
 
Sorry to hear that, but tomorrow is what matters, can we commit together to no b/p tomorrow? I will, if you will!

Good that you were honest enough to admit it here, I think that means you can do better tomorrow.

One day at a time!
 
Hey Vic, Sorry to hear but let's get back on track tomorrow! I'm not sure I followed why btw? I thought you did better when family is around? Might be helpful to explore and then yes, get right back on track. Definitely good to admit it. We're here and checking in. Join us again! :D
 
I'm sorry about that too Vic. Our son used to do the same & we did not know about until he left home. He was bullied about his weight as a teen & had serious self-esteem issues for years and years & used binging & purging until he got too thin. I still get very emotional thinking about it all so don't say much in here. He did so much damage to his teeth too. It hurts me to think about anyone doing it. I hope you are able to stop doing it for good, hon, I really do xoxo
 
I'm so sorry. :( I hope you're sleeping well right now, and recovering to have a better tomorrow. Yes, it should be easier when there aren't other people's burgers right in front of you - hoping for the best for you.
 
Well at 139.6 lbs.

I just had my teeth cleaned. My gums need some work. A couple of 4s. Mostly in the back. Will try to do better at flossing. I will be missing my Jan appt since I’ll be in St. Croix.

Today I’ll try to not b/p. I have to start over. I have to eat birthday cupcakes later. So I’ll just stick to one hopefully.

Lunch is my ground chicken and spaghetti squash. Dinner is whatever my sis is making for the twins birthday celebration.
 
So I ended up eating lunch at the VA. I had a sourdough sandwich with turkey and cheddar cheese.
 
So tonight I had pasta with shrimp and chicken thigh and salad.

I did not purge. And I did have craving for Parisian bread and salami so I did take a little piece.

So I think I did pretty good but I don’t want to check my weight on the scale. I think my calories for the day were high. It was the twins birthday so I indulged in their birthday cake too.

Watching the debate so I have to go!

So I’m at 143.6 lbs. Looking to lose about 25 lbs. Started a new diet today. I’m just eating protein. Also will be drinking tea and coffee with almond milk.
I’ve been at this weight since Jan. Next week I’m going to an all inclusive vacation by Cancun. Looking forward to it. But will try to not overeat while I’m there.
Yesterday I saw a dietitian and she pointed me to the right direction. I’m also going to check my RMR this Saturday so I can see how much to cut back on calories.

Your goal is achievable. My friend did it with some dietary changes in just 3-4 months. You are on right track.
 
Vic, I'm sorry to hear this and I hope you're OK.
