Dellarocco's journal

Thanks Xenon you've been great in keeping me on track. Yesterday night I ate out and had some fries I shouldn't have but skipped the snack I normally would of had before bed. I've been avoiding eating sweets which is a plus. I'm aiming to lose a pound this week nothing too big. Have a great Sunday.
 
Thanks Aus, the junk food industry has hundreds of billions of dollars on their side to get the masses to consume the products they make. When was the last time anyone has seen a commercial for brussel sprouts? Even worse is the fact that all the sugar, artificials and fat is put in those said products. Irony is waiting for the weigh-in results for the biggest loser and having a red lobster commercial shown.
 
And I thought it ridiculous when our biggest loser signed up with a pizza chain to sell lower calorie options, because speaking for myself I know if I wanted fast food i'd want to go for the pizza. Speaking of pizza, i'm going to try and make one from scratch for dinner, looking forward to it. :biggrinjester:
 
Homemade pizza is even better tasting than the big retail chains. I have a weakness for pizza too, the best thing I do is take a piece or two and immediately put the rest in the refridgerator.

So far so good six days without binging and going for seven. Bought a big jar of pickles to snack on. I figure if food flies into my mouth, I rather it be something with 15 calories than something with 300 calories. Besides most of the time I would have a brownie or donut, a cup of coffee or milk would go with it. So a sweet and 2% cup a milk ends up being 450 calories extra a day. Trust me on the rough days there would be two of those snacks. I'll be back on later have yourself a good pizza day:hurray:
 
Well I blew it today I had a two brownies I shouldn't had plus I ate the whole Mexican meal that I should saved half for tomorrow. That ends the six day no binge going to seven days. It started at 6pm right before dinner time when I had one brownie, then had another one. The brownie thing doesn't bother me as bad as the dinner binge. I really should of put the rest in the fridge rather than picking away at it. Well thats the beauty of this journal you see the victories and the defeats. Since I ate the heavy dinner, I ate a small bedtime snack tonight. Lets aim for seven days without binging starting Tuesday.
 
It's good that you keep getting right back with it Dellarocco. I had a high calorie day this weekend also, but I'm not letting it stop me either. We can do this!:hurray:
 
Thanks Xenon for the inspiration, the good news is I bought some more batteries for my headphones so I have something to listen to while I walk. I've been reading your journal I hope to be as discipline in dieting as you are.
 
Thanks Dellarocco :) That's a nice compliment really. For me counting calories works, I think it is easier once you find something that works for you. But don't forget that you have come a long way so you must have discipline as well. I hope I can lose as much weight as you did :D
 
Your right, I can do this, I just lost control yesterday. I've done really well today only eating 1000 calories or so far and dinner will be soon. I made sure to study today so I have that off my mind. I would like to break that six day record it would be a feather in my cap. Well anyways it's nice typing I only wish I had more to type about take care.
 
I needed to get my mind together today I ended up binging on wednesday and yesterday. I weighed myself today I weigh 236.4, what I weigh two weeks ago. I know that too much time on my hands is what is holding back. Binging gives me a adventure that I wouldn't normally have. It seems all I have the energy to do is going to work, doing some chores and watching youtube. On the upside, I planted a pepper plant that I look forward to seeing grow and my typing is getting a little faster, although it could be more accurate. I thought of a temporary goal for my weight loss by making a point system for getting rewards. I have this cd holder that I would like to get rid of, but I could never justify it because it's still in useable condition. I would use it but I don't have any cds. So I figure if I stay on my diet fifteen days, I really can get rid of it because I earned the right to. I was also thinking of looking at a second language to keep me busy. I took Spanish in high school maybe I should give it another look. Other than that I'll make sure to read some journals tonight to see how you all are doing. Enjoy your day
 
Hi Dellarocco :D

I think most people who binge or overeat do it for comfort/excitement/something to do etc. What I am doing for myself is setting goals that will keep me in an active lifestyle...like being a runner. I've been sedentary for a while, but I am starting back with exercise. I love plants! Which type of pepper did you plant? Red, green, black, habanero? If you're giving spanish a go again and you feel like practicing with someone, you can talk to me. I need to get back at it again, I used to be fluent but I have not used it in YEARS! Glad to see that your typing is getting better too. :cheers2: Here's to 15 days of not binging! (BTW that is diet root beer in those glasses :p)
 
Whoa 15 days of no binging!?!
:party::party::party::party::party:

That's a major accomplishment and to answer your question from before it's a jalapeno plant. The plant is kind of being stunted by the cold weather it's wilting at the moment. Yea I also have to exercise it's hasn't been my month this March, (neither was February), it's goal I need to meet.

Sorry about not being on lately I've been trying to keep trying to binging, but it's been a battle. My weight for today is 237.8, I was expecting a lot worse. One more note is I might make a separate journal on my computer for non-dieting purposes. I just need some place to write down some goals or to vent and this site might not be the most appropriate place to. My luck someone I know would read this. Keep up the good work and I'll be on later:seeya:
