Last few weeks have sucked. I really thought I was doing well. I prepared well for Easter. I did cheat and have on small spoonful of oyster dressing. I couldn't resist, it is my favorite. But other than that I was good. No candy, no sweet potatoes, no corn, no rolls, no bannana pudding. I made jello fluff for my dessert, low carb veggies. I was really busy over the weekend and actually I under ate. But I did have some beers which wasn't good. Then Monday I woke up and didn't feel well and for some reason got on a eating binge. Ate Easter candy, more oyster dressing, strawberries, banana pudding... I don't know why I did it. You would think with not feeling well it would have made me not want to eat. I think I was more in a mood than anything. Then the more I ate the more I wanted. And then I really was sick the rest of the day and night.
I broke down and bought me a new digital scales this weekend. No more fighting with my dinasour scales with the springs that could give me three different readings so I would weight myself 10 times every morning and go with the weight that I got the most times. So the past two days I weighed myself on both scales and the new scale shows about 4 lbs. higher than my old one so todays weight is from the new scale. Doesn't look to good but I figure I am going to have start over today anyway I might as well start with the new scales. I keep going through this with the scales. First I moved them one room to another and that changed my weight and now I have a whole new set and they changed again. I think that was part of my problem yesterday, I figured I was going to have to start with a new weight anyway. Stupid reasoning. I have been in such a funk the past couple of weeks. I have got to pick myself up. I was feeling so good and was really proud of myself. I don't know what is wrong with me other than the other stresses in my life. Taking a deep breath now and moving forward. I know I have made progress even though I'm having all of these ups and downs with the scales because some of my clothes are almost too big for me and have people telling me they can tell a difference. I am just going to have to get these extra pounds that I gained off and keep on going. I need an attitude adjustment bad!!!

Well Nino, with yesterdays splurging behind you, don't look back. Put your head up high and look forward to a promising tomorrow. Take the weight difference between scales as a wash and move forward. You can get over this. Get outside, get some fresh air, and take a walk. You wont believe how well you'll feel once you are done.

Nino - Do exactly as you say... Put the weekend behind you, pick yourself up and move forward. Nobody's perfect and these things will happen, just do your best to move on. You can do this!!!

Next time, plan out your day to include the foods you love on the holiday. Depriving yourself can lead to binging. You eat a high protein breakfast, and lunch. Get in some exercise and then eat your Easter dinner. Just stop when you are satisfied and watch your portions. It does take practice. There will always be some holiday, party, or stress in our lives. We have to learn how to deal with it. Just get back on your plan and you will be fine.

I did well on Easter except for the few bites of dressing I had. I made ham, "just like stuffed potatoes" (made with cauliflower), creamed spinach, deviled eggs, and for my dessert I made jello fluff. It was Monday that was difficult for some reason. I knew it was coming. I think I just had to get it out of the way. I have been in such a funk lately and have been fighting the urge to give in for a couple of weeks. I'll get back on track. I have been feeling so great the past few months so I don't know why I have been so down lately. I have just been stressed and I know that it was stress eating. Just so much going on with my husbands health. I just need to get back on track. I know I need to be healthy in order to be there to help my husband. I had a wonderful weekend. I got so much work done at home and both my kids were home and the weather was great. I can do this (keep repeating in my head).

Nino, I have just left that funk. It happens to the best of us. We dont see results and become so frustrated and willing to throw in the towel. We fail to realize that just because the stupid scale is being complicated and stubborn that we aren't making progress. For every chocolate, or potatoe chip, or whatever that we don't eat - we have made a miracle. You can do this. You are better than that. You can message me if you'd like and I will help anyway I can. Dont give in. Before you know it you'll be asking yourself why you ever felt this way. Hang tough.

Thanks k. I know you were going through a rough time a few weeks ago too. I am going to my Zumba class tonight. I think that will help. It is a hard work out and the music makes me feel really good. I have only been able to go sporadicly lately. I have a hectic week this week but I am going to try to get my two classes in. And today I got my Body Electric DVD in. So hopefully I will be able to use that a couple days a week too. I hope I like it. I used to follow along on TV years ago. I know I had been doing well. I don't know what go into me yesterday. I think it was a pity party. Now no more of that.

We have all gone through that at some point or another. At least you are here today and still wanting a change. You are doing well. And kudos on the work outs. That really is a huge step towards success.
