Decided to go back on the forum to get back on track for weight loss. I'm currently making this journal to avoid bingeing even more. I got down to 225 last year, however, I'm back up to 236.4lbs. My goal weight for the end of the year is 198lbs. I'll make some more posts whenever I have the urge to overeat.

Just wanted to add a little more to whoever reads this I decided to do a journal to not only curve bingeing, but to improve my typing skills. In January I made a secondary goal to get to 35 words per minute in typing and currently at 28wpm according to FreeTypingGame.net . If all goes well, I might even aim to do better.
 
:waving:Hi Dellarocco :) Good luck with the weight loss and the typing!!
What are you planning on doing to lose the weight?
 
Hi Xenon, my plan is to stick to writing down what I eat during the day and to find new activities to keep me from boredom eating. I find that if there is nothing on tv or caught up on work, I tend to go to the kitchen to burn time. I plan to read some journals and write in my own and to get into some non-food hobby. Hope to see you around Xenon :)
 
Good plan ;) You'll see me around :D And I'll probably help you with your typing because I talk alot :p

All the best!

Yesterday night I did binge a little and I need to keep myself accountable for doing so. I ate 2 brownies, 2 string cheese and 3 mini muskateer bars I shouldn't have. I'm not too angry at myself, I've done worse before. I ate the brownies to get rid of them so they wouldn't tempt me any more. I wonder if anyone else eats food because there is only a serving left.

Today I'm going to focus on walking a few laps around the yard, maybe 10 laps.Well I have to get ready to go to work until then.
 
I have learned to make sure those temptations are not in the house - if someone else brings them in and isn't eating them then throw them out! Or freeze them - that doesn't work for me though because it can easily thaw! I always binge around the holidays because there seems to be more temptations around - I just have to work on not letting the temptations into the house around that time.
 
Good morning Dellarocco :D
Don't feel too bad about it, just do the right thing today. I use this meal tracker thing at this site called Sparkpeople. Check it out, maybe it might help you to stay focused. It helps me because it feels like a reality competition with myself :p like the biggest loser :p

Have a good day :seeya:

Yesterday ended up being a good day with no bingeing. I didn't, however, do the ten laps that I had planned doing. I ended up doing some spring cleaning because the weather was so good. Thanks to those who've been posting their support:hurray:

I'm on a two day winning streak and aiming for three. Ended up taking a nap when I got home from work so I never got to do those ten laps. Currently aiming for a pound a week weight loss. I find that any thing higher than that saps progress and cookies end up in my mouth. Had some pineapple today and I must say it was great. Not much of a fruit fan so it's a start. Enjoying the warmer weather here and hoping you have good weather too.

Where does the time go? It's mid March and there's a few goals I need to follow up on so I don't forget. When I was younger, my goals did include weight loss but I never gave it a realistic thought. I had imagined that I would of loss all my weight in 6 months but its been 3 years and only lost 125lbs and I still have 35 or so to go. What makes it worse is I only lost 17lbs last year. My main goals 10 years ago were just to beat video games that I was playing. One day I wrote down all the games I beat on a piece of paper and then suddenly realized I was never going to get that time back. Anyone reading this besides me have yourself a great day.

Thanks Xenon for the kind words I'm just happy I don't have to carry all that weight around. Yesterday night I ate a donut but no major binging. Weighed myself this morning which was 233.4, a loss of 3.0lbs.

Disclaimer: Even though I loss 3 lbs I believe some of that was water that was being retained from eating high sodium foods (ramens, pretzels, and canned soup)

It's nice to be caught up on everything in general although I'm not looking forward to setting my clock ahead one hour. I'll aim to be on later tonight have yourself a good Friday.

Four days strong going aiming for five. Been successful at avoiding sugary treats and high fat foods and I completed seventy small laps around the back yard. I'm glad that my journal is keeping me out of trouble. Tonight is a diet test I'll really have to guard myself from eating too many tortilla chips at the Mexican diner.
 
Just got home from work and had 2 hard boiled eggs and two toasts. Doing good today, now just have to watch myself at dinner and it'll be five days without binging.
