Thrilled to report that I’m back to my never-never-weight. This is the weight that I had planned to never see again, and if I did see it, it would set off major alarm bells, and it would give me a huge kick in the pants, and I would get totally motivated to get back on [...]

Not my best work

I ate a little more than I should have today. Again with the fighting kids. Grrr. They were battling over everything. So frustrating and hard to deal with. I also started my day with a “check in weigh in” where I weigh myself so that I can get an idea of what I *will* weigh [...]
Thinking Thin

I have been struggling so much lately. You all know that. I needed my Knight to get the rescue started with a kick in the ass. But truly, getting back on track falls to me. It really does. I ultimately control what comes in the house, what meals are made, what treats are baked and [...]
Knight in Shining Armour

He swept in when he heard a damsel in distress, and did what I asked. Today, this week, this month…I’ve desperately needed rescuing. Now – I’m not a kitten-stuck-in-a-tree-rescue-me kind of gal. Far from it. But today, I was so far down my well of despair, I couldn’t get out alone. I needed my ass [...]
As good as I could have gotten…

I didn’t gain weight this week. This was actually surprising, given the amount of food I have stuffed in my face. It is a credit to my healthy meals and lots of walking, really. Feeling crappy tonight. Having gin and tonics. No peanuts (yet).

The kids fight. I eat. The more they fight, the more I eat. Sadly, young children bicker and fight ALL THE TIME. Really. All the time. It doesn’t just feel like it. Check out the article. I had a good day mentally, parenting-ly, physically. I actually feel good today. Unfortunately, I ate my way through [...]
Touched

I really am touched by the kind comments and thoughts that have been coming my way. I do benefit from this positive energy. Today was an in control day. I went for a walk after bedtime last night. Sucks to be out walking when I want to be in my jammies, but at least it [...]
Getting back in the saddle
Posted in children, emotional eating, food, weight loss on May 5, 2008 | 1 Comment »
The hard thing about getting back in the saddle is discovering how sucky it is! And how many skills you have lost. And how many bad habits have crept in. When I’m not trying to eat well, I can eat anything. I can think “hmmm – that looks good” and then eat it. I can [...]
What I need…

Is to stop eating through this sadness. I am struggling with my eating. So badly. I cannot believe how fast the fat is coming back. My jeans hurt. They are too tight on the waist and hips. Yuck. And my muffin top…YIKES! And the weather just keeps getting warmer. Less clothing to hide behind. I [...]
Feeling left out

For those of you who don’t actually know me in real life, I assure you, I’m actually a good person. I think of others, don’t hit my kids or kick my pets. I volunteer, I donate money to charity. I let people cut in front of me in the car, I even let people cut [...]
