i thought of asking him to hide the candy. but the kids want to eat it during the day and my older one stuffs his face as soon as we get home from the bus stop. fine with me! i want it gone ASAP.

i guess yesterday was just a temporary lapse of control, but today i'm feeling strong and dont even have the urge for candy. funny huh? :confused: well i hope at the very least that your right and that my free for all day did actually raise my metabolism.

i do usually let myself have a day every once in a while where i eat without counting, but i save that for if we are going to a restaurant or something like that. yesterdays mess was NOT planned and i guess thats what bothered me the most. so thats it for a while until thanksgiving anyway. last year's thanksgiving went very well and i was very proud of myself. picked up a salad at burger king on the way to TG dinner and thats all i had except for 2 rum and diet cokes. :)
 
Just checking in to see how you are doing today. I'm happy to say that that the good candy in son's stash is GONE! The remainding candy is all stuff that I don't really care about, so I'm not constantly tempted.

Do people comment on what you eat/don't eat (like at Thanksgiving dinner?) If so, what do you tell them???

I hope you have a GREAT week! Love, J
 
i'm glad you checked in, i thought maybe you were a bit peeved with me. havent checked my email yet so dont know if you wrote me back yet...i take it your feeling better? well i sent you a pm instead of writing in your diary like i wanted to.

i cheated last night and had a couple reeses. but my monthly is due any minute so i guess thats why i'm craving chocolate. geez i will be so happy when the kids candy is gone! problem is, there is 3 freakin kids! which means 3 dam pillowcases :mad:

up til now (the last year and half) nobdy has been bothering me much with questions etc about food. and of course the congratulations on weight loss have stopped since i passed the weight that people THINK i look good at. problem is i just dont agree! last thanksgiving i didnt eat ANY of the food that was served although i was dying to. instead i stopped at BK on the way to MIL's house and got a salad and thats what i had for TG dinner along with my rum and diet coke. but since i was still overweight at the time, nobody questioned it. this year, i dont know what i will do. i might just stay home alone and avoid the whole dam thing!
 
Don't stay home and avoid it all together ... just do small/moderate portions and east sesinbly! It is only one day ... just have som turkey :) and some green beans ... you will make good decisons, and it is oly ONE day ... you will be fine! I don't want you to be alone on TG!!!
 
Trish is right, Dont just give up on Thanksgiving maybe put some salad on your plate as well and try filling up a little more on that and just have less of everything else. You cant just not eat with your family. You will do fine. I know what you mean about the halloween candy Im struggeling too. I have 4 kids but 3 big bags of candy. I would love to throw it all away...LOL. Dont get discouraged Hon look at you. You have done amazing and you will do just as amazing this Thanksgiving.
 
Ah, dear Lisa.....I so "get" you. And, btw, I emailed you back (FINALLY! lol). My friend TOM (time of month) just arrived and I went through the major chocolate cravings too. Cravings are now gone, glad they don't last forever. I wish TOM would just quit coming and leave me the heck alone!!!!! He and Aunt Flo can shack up somewhere and stay the heck away from me and my uterus! Hmmmmf!
 
Lisa.... I've been sending the candy slowly but surely to work with Phil!!!!
AND LISA! you cant avoid thanksgiving. It's a time for family to get together and visit and fun stuff like that. What kind of example would you be setting for your 7 year old? You just cant and shouldnt skip Thanksgiving... Whats wrong with a small piece of Turkey Breast... skip the gravy... And there are always salads and veggie trays.. if where ever you are going doesnt have a salad planned on the menu, then bring one... Doesnt everyone usually bring a dish when you go visiting for TG?
You know what you can and cant eat... Just do it sensibly...
And as for loosing more weight... I really dont even wanna go there with you...
I know everyone had their own goals and what not, but dont you think there is such a thing as going too far? One might think you have become obsessed... Just be careful... Like Kim said, we dont want you wasting away to a skeleton.
My sister is down to like 110 and looks SICK as all hell... I dont want that to happen to you. You look AWESOME, AMAZING right now....
But it is up to you, its your body, your self image........ DONT HATE ME FOR MY THOUGHTS! PLEASE!
 
thanks skinny, julie, christina, and julia! maybe i will go to TG dinner, even if i do stuff myself it is only 1 day so that could be my cheat day.

and christina, its not a big deal but my older son is only 5 not 7. and the twins are 4. yes i know its impossible to keep track of everybodys kids! :)
and how could i hate you for your thoughts? your just being your sweet concerned self. your sister is down to 110? how tall is she?
 
HEY GOT YOUR CARD!

You too sweet hun! And so impatient! Couldnt wait for christmas.. lol

I'm so happpy! <singing>

Thank you for cheering me up!
 
Morning Sweetie just wanted to pop my head in and say hello and to tell you to have a great day. Trying_ She has pictures posted in before and after and inbetween section and she looks amazing.
 
Oh Lisa, how could I have skipped your question! My sister is the same height as you.... 5'5" or maybe 5'4"....... but everyone tells her she looks bad... her bones are stiking out her face, her eyes look all sunken in... her bones are sticking out her wrists, elbows, knees... like someone with an eating disorder... I wish I had a good pic for you to see it...
 
thank you tryingtolose. :)

hi Julie, thanks for stopping in, i will try to get to your diary later today. i have to get son in a few min. he has a half day today and then i have a teacher conference.

christina, what does your sister say about it? does she think she looks too thin? maybe she just has a high metabolism?
 
too funny Rhonda! you were in my diary while i was writing in yours! :D
 
Lisa... my sister has a high.. but I dont think its metabolism... this may contribute to her looking so bad. LOL God she would kill me if she read that!
I dont campare you and her in anyway.. I know you have gone the healthy route.. but when I see weight amounts I think of her... ya know?
She thinks she looks alright... but her vision is probly blured as well.. lol
I dont get along with my sister as one might be able to tell...
 
Morning Lisa just wanted to pop my head in sorry I never came around yesterday, kinda a bad day but I will try and pop around twice today to make up for it...LOL. Hope you have a good day sweetie.
 
Hey Sweetie just bringin you back to the land of living journals you were on page 2 and we cant have that! Hope you have a good day!
