P2R2 VLCD #18 (171.8, +0.2)
I had a hard time again yesterday people! I felt hungry a lot, when I shouldn't have! I ended up eating a couple handfuls of light microwave popcorn, a few nibbles of the hamburger/rice casserole I made the family for dinner, a couple slurps of Emma's shaved ice (with ice cream in the bottom... yum), and I took a bite of a sugar cookie I made the kids last night, but spit it out when I realized what I was doing. Anyway, I am just hoping that today will be easier. I have only 5 days until I take my last shot before the break and I really want to make those days count! I don't know why I was extra munchy yesterday... I think my hunger was more psychological than physical. I was home most of the day because of Emma being sick and that means I was close to the kitchen all day. I find it much easier to stay on the diet when I am busy and distracted. Hopefully today will go better.

My sister is also having a hard time right now. I'm trying to read whatever I can get my hands on dealing with the psychology of eating... Once I get the weight off I don't want to go back to my old ways of coping with stress, sadness, loneliness, happiness... well... you get the picture!! Keep up the fight!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by and leaving a comment. It is really a help to me. I never knew I ate so much for things other than hunger.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you are able to catch yourself and stop when you do. It seems like a little nibble leads to a binge when I get started. However, I'm determined to stick with it.
Oh how I know how that goes!! I was out of town unprepared once and thought I'd just have a 'little' of something I shouldn't.... set me up to eat the entire day... it was so frustrating... I now have an absolute LAW for myself: when I'm feeling hungry or really want to eat I MAKE myself prepare a large cup of tea and 99% of the time the hunger is gone after I drink the tea... hope that helps?????
