day 3... so down

Tuesday, July 03, 2012

I am feeling very down tonight... my body is screaming for something sweet to eat... and it is really making me crazy.. I am moody, and sensitive. I really just want to cry. I hate that this is hard. I hate that I am this weak. I have always held myself as a strong person... nothing really gets to me... but it does get to me. I hate the way I look and I hate the way I feel. I feel like I will never get it right... hopeless, defeated... and alone.

    You are not alone! Not even CLOSE! Well over half of America is overweight. And every overweight person I have ever known has felt this way or feels this way all the time. The beginning is the hardest part. You will tame your sweet tooth more eventually, but for now you need a way to satisfy it that won't make you feel even worse about yourself. I don't know if you are able to go to a store or what you have available to eat at home, but my sweet treat when I am "DYING!!" is frozen banana pureed in the blender (it has the exact consistency of soft-serve ice cream) sometimes I'll add a little dry sugar-free pudding mix (any flavor) to make it even more indulgent. or a few chopped nuts or chocolate chips (but I try not to keep chocolate chips around because I'll eat the whole bag). Of course, you don't have time to freeze a banana tonight, so maybe just try the distraction method- do something you enjoy, or talk to people. I'm online, you can message me on facebook (Rachel Muchmore) if you want to chat or do the spmail. Or go to bed early. Sleep is good for you. Don't give up on yourself! You'll get this! I promise!

  Hugs!! It can be so hard to not give in to the cravings. I am 2 weeks into my journey and the first couple days were the hardest as I realized how much I give in to feeding my emotions. I know it is hard with 3 kids and taking care of your grandmother an top of that, I admire you for being a strong woman. You can lose this weight!!! emoticon

    You are NOT alone girl. I DO know how hard it is. Maybe you can get ice water with frozen berries in it (like ice cubes). Or sugarless gum. Or sugarless mints. Or sugar free jello, with maybe fruit in it. Can you do a crossword puzzle or something to get your hands busy? I hope these suggestions help. Could maybe get a piece of fruit? Frozen grapes? A banana. I am rooting for you my friend. You ARE doing it. It just takes baby steps. One baby step at a time. Please feel free to sparkmail me. I will be up for another hour. Take care and I am praying for you! emoticon emoticon emoticon emoticon emoticon
