Fell Off The Diet Wagon
 

Ladies, I am so upset with ME!!! I was doing so good excersing and eating healthy. The last two weeks I have been busy with work, haven't gone to the gym and am eating and eating.. HELP!! Anybody else going through this?? I keep saying tomorrow I will get back on.... It's frustrating :mad:

Yes Gina, I am going through the same thing. I think mine started more last week when I started take the Chantix. I haven't gained any, but I'm sure not losing any either. I've just had a lot on my mind too, husbands back, puppies, wanting good weather...you name it, I'm thinking about it.

Janet my problem is that I love food to much.. at night I am bored and look for sweets ughhhhhhhhhhh

That's when I want it too. Sooooo I buy those Weight Watcher cakes and save them for evening. I let myself eat one everynight if I'm in the mood. That's my chocolate fix for the day. I love food too and mostly the stuff that isn't the greatest healthwise, but sure tastes good. I hate being fat!!

I have tasted the WW mint bars they taste like girl scout mint cookies not bad Janet, I can use some ice cream right about now.. lol I went out and brought Edys american idol slow churned ice cream not bad , and its half the calories...

At least you guys are on the diet wagon. I keep saying I'm going back on wait watchers and loose at least 10 pounds before I go to the beach and I'm going June 2. I really need to start this week and I might come close to the 10lbs. I need to lose more than that but that won't happen before the beach so I will try for the 10.

LOL... Gina, dont feel bad! I keep forgetting i was on the diet wagon :D

You'll be able to do it by June, you just have to want it bad enough. I lose the first 10-20 lbs really fast, but the rest takes forever.

Gina, Ladies, you are not alone. I was doing so good. Started working out last May, lost about 16 lbs with only about 8 more to go. Backslid a bit over the Christmas holidays. Got back with the program in January. Fell off the wagon in February, but surprisingly a month went by and I had actually lost weight back down to my pre-Christmas weight. Not too bad.

Then last week I weighed again & I've gained 6 lbs. I just have to get back to the gym. I got some capri's out that fit me great last September and they are way too tight!!!

We need to hunt up that weight loss encouragement thread and revive it!!! I, for one, have to find the resolve to get back to the gym. I have 14 lbs to lose to get where I need to be, and for some reason, it's not easy for me to drop that much weight.

I may break down and go to WW.

Okay Ladies now that I ate a delicous breakfast of pancakes...lol that my hubby made. I am going to go to the gym once I pry myself off this computer...lol Marilyn I love capris, hang in there they will fit great once again. :)

well I have unwillingly started losing weight again. not that I didn't want to just not this way. I have had a terrible stomach virus for 3 days now. I'm afraid to leave the house because I can barely make it to the restroom here. :thumbdwn: The upside is maybe by the time its over I'll have lost the 30 lbs I want to.

Awww thats aweful Traci, im sorry you not feeling well, i have heard of more people having this tummy bug. Hope you feel better real soon! ;) Make sure you drink lots of fluids!

aww thanks Mandy. I'm trying to drink lots. Seems alot of people have this. :(

Traci, have you tried drinking flat coke? Add a tsp of sugar to a little coke, my old doctor told me to drink that everytime i had a tummy bug.

I have never heard of this but thanks for the tip. I'll definitely try it.

It always works like a charm for me, but drink it slow :thumbup: Hope it works for you too ;)

We were always taught to drink 7-Up or Sprite when we had upset tummies. We would just sip them, not drink a lot at once. Hope you feel better real soon.

Janet where I grew up I remember the pharmacy selling coke syrup for upset stomachs. So sweet I would imagine.. Tracy I hope your feeling better .

I am finally over the being sick part & the coke did help. Thanks so much Mandy. :D I just feel weak now. So I should be back to normal in a day or two. Thanks to everyone who asked about me. It means alot to see people care. :)

So glad you feeling better girl :thumbup: Hope you get your strength back, and feel like your old self soon!!


I just gave my son some to drink too, he came home from school with the same symptoms, it schould have him up, and about soon :)

Aww, I hope your son feels better asap!

Thanks :D & I'm so sorry your son has it now I hope he feels better soon *big 4wt hugs for him*

Thanks Angie, and Traci :D Im sure he will be better soon, i know that drink works like a charm ;)


A LOT of school kids went home sick today due to this heat, they sent out ambulances, and trauma heli's, kids were passing out in schools, its on the news.

Yikes, that sounds awful. You can send some of you extra heat this way. It was snowing here yesterday and it's still really cold today...

ugh that is awful. We've all been complaining about snow & cold sometimes we forget what the other side of the fence is like.

Its cooling a bit tomorrow, which is great, it changed from cool to real hot way too fast, which is never good.

The temperature has definitely been crazy lately...

Hopefully it will be cooler tomorrow.

if we could only trade her some of our cold for her heat :rolleyes:

I'd do it in a heartbeat. lol

I love the heat, but it was even too much for me yesterday, and today... at times it felt like i was seeing double :eek:

Make sure you drink lots of water. You can get dehydrated so easily if it's that hot.

Yes, im drinking lots, and lots of water. Its too hot to enjoy any food, so ive had fruit instead :thumbup:

& popsicles... hee they are great & taste better... I know i'm bad water is better for you.

Sounds yummy. Hot weather makes the best diet, right? lol. Makes you stick to water and fruit or at least light snacks. :)

You can make those healthy popsicles with jogurt, and freeze them :thumbup: they great! :D

So true, just want fresh things to eat, i cooked this evening, my husband asked why i fancied standing in a hot kitchen, he wanted to take me out for dinner on a terras awwww .... oh well, maybe next time :D

Crystal light popsicles are great as well :)

Sounds good! I wonder if Marty would like yogurt popsicles. He loves yogurt...

you could always try it. worst case is he doesn't then you can feed them to Brendon :D Then we can tell him he ate dog food again;)

If you have a kong for him, make him peanutbutter/yogurt icecream, he will love you for it :D Stuff the kong with the mixture, and freeze it :thumbup:
