Hi all! I am feeling so mad at myself! I truly ate like a pig more than 50% of this weekend!

It all started on Friday night. We went to a steak house.... I had BBQ ribs, salad, and worst of all 1/4 of a DESSERT!!!!!!!!!! (ice cream, apple pie !!!!!!!!!!) Then on Saturday we were with friends and I was bad for 2 meals (cx fingers for lunch and chinese for dinner!!!!!!!! Then today I had mexican (2 enchilada's) for lunch! I don't know what is wrong with me!!!!!!!!!!! I have had so many cravings and just haven't been able to stop myself! Plus, my hubby isn't helping any! I did work out Thurs., Friday, Saturday and today so at least I didn't 100% lose it! I am just feeling really guilty.

I haven't been watching my diet so much lately. I think it is because I have lost quite a bit of weight and was starting to feel that "slack off" feeling. I think not watching my menu has actually left me with more cravings because I am probably not eating the right things.

Anyway, I am going to start FRESH and BRAND New tomorrow! I guess what is in the past is in the past:) Right!!!??? We went to the grocery store today and bought all the good stuff again (we were out of a lot of the staples) so hopefully that will help.

I just had to tell someone. I figured if anyone can understand how I am feeling it is all of you!

Anyone know a good way to get over this bad phase? I am thinking of trying the Body RX and have ordered the book from my bookstore. It should be in this week:)

Was anyone else bad this weekend?

Bad this weekend or bad all the time?

Looking at your diet, it wasn't all bad: you had a salad and protein and chinese is not unhealthy at all.

I say do BodyMax, MIS and PH this week to work it all off. Those ones are really tough and I am sooooooooooo glad I have them because they are the ones I use most often when I have eaten too much.

Hi Pammer,

I was bad on Saturday night, I had been good all day and blew it in the evening with a huge pile of chips (fries) and a pot of curry sauce from the Fish and Chip shop AND I had some red wine. So, not good, really. I was much better yesterday, I had wholewheat toast for breakfast, a baked potato and baked beans and salad for lunch (we went out for lunch), and last night, I had a bowl of cereal with soya milk, and a yoghurt.

Pammer - Just to let you know that you are not alone. I was awful this weekend! I don't even want to list the crap I ate (makes me cringe). I got up today morning saying NEVER AGAIN! I've been really slack with the meal planning during the week and I think that is contributing to my binges. I've just been having unbelievable cravings! I don't think I've figured out this maintainence thing as yet. I'm good at weight loss and I just assumed the same rules would apply to maintaining. But without the motivation of weight loss, I seem to be becoming really slack. Anyway just wanted to let you know that I feel exactly like you do today - all ready to start afresh and find some motivation to keep me honest with my diet. I'm going to read Dr. Shapiro's Picture Perfect Weight Loss to see if that helps.
 
Okay~it must have been a "lunar" thing or something......

I, too confess to a "weird eating" Sunday. No sooner than I had posted on the "weight loss check in" that I hadn't done too bad with eating for the week, I "lost it!"

Hubby brought home McDonalds for dinner, which wasn't expected, and the person put an extra fry in the bag, guess who ate it? Then, after dinner, hubby goes to gas up and comes home swinging a grocery bag with guess what? A pint of Ben & Jerry's One Sweet Swirl ice cream! Only my biggest nemesis! I ate it~ALL OF IT! :( And as I sat there miserable and bloated, all I could think was, "damn! blew this clean eating day all to hell!"

So you weren't alone on the poor choices this weekend! :)

Just forget about the past and move on. Try to be healty for the next 6 days if that works and then allow a treat day. This sometimes works for me!
Any way just go forward and try to make good choices from here out! :)

I just love this board:-Jumpy I knew you guys would make me feel better!! I know I am not alone and we are only human. I also forgot to mention I also had frozen eggo waffles Sunday morning with lite syrup on them:( uggggghhhhh!

I started a S&H rotation for the first time this morning and am back on track with my diet. I can't believe how awesome the S&H feels. It is totally different than the other videos. I really didn't think I would be sore. However, I can already feel it in my biceps and triceps (I did biceps & triceps). It is such a different workout I am really excited to see the results.

I think the change of pace and S&H rotation will help me stay more focused. I am also going to focus on my meal planning more as a couple of you mentioned. I started to slack in the planning and was definitely not eating enough of the right things.

Isn't it amazing how much of a difference lack of planning and not eating right makes on your ability NOT to control your cravings. I just feel so bloated this morning after all I ate this weekend and I haven't felt this way in awhile. I think this yucky feeling will help remind me why it feels so much better to be good:)

Anyway, it was fun while it lasted (or was it??) At least I got my mexican food fix out of the way. I have been craving it for weeks:)

I am going to a great step class at the club tonight. It usually kicks my butt and makes me sweat real good so hopefully I will feel better tomorrow:)

Thanks to all of you for your support. I am sooooo happy I found this board. No one else understands!

Feel free to share your weekend pig stories as well. I definitely can relate this weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: Me too!

Who are you and why are you posting my life's story? Just kidding, but I could have written your post. It was my birthday last week and I got 5 (count 'em) 5 cakes for my birthday! I only had 2 pieces total, but I also went out to eat about 6 x's that week. So this week you'd think I'd get right back on track right? No. I ate half a bag of candy corn this morning. Sometimes, I honestly believe that my body needs a cheat. Awhile back I posted a question about how people eat clean all the time. Several of the posts mentioned not just figuring out how to stop my binging, but focusing on why I'm binging. So now I focus on that. Is is stress, is it that I'm just thirsty, is it boredom? Sometimes I still binge, but since tuning into why, the binges have cut back TREMEMNDOUSLY! Once again, props to the gals (and guys) on the Cathe forum! And don't worry, posting about your weekend is already part of getting back on track in my opinion.
