Day One Again

Sunday, January 20, 2013

So I'm starting over again today because I had a very bad week. I only did good on Friday. Yesterday I got bored and ate a whole bunch of junk food. I feel like why bother with this eating healthy when I'm going to just keep on failing every day. I keep telling my loved ones I need the lap band surgery. They don't want to hear it. I know what the consequences are but how can I loos weight when I always turn to food when I'm bored or frustrated? I don't know what else to do. I refuse to join weight watchers. I feel like its same as spark except your counting points and paying money. I refuse to do Jenny Craig just to buy food that I can make at home for lower cost. I have a doctor appointment Monday and he will be very disappointed when he sees I have not lost weight. I am praying to god I do not have hi sugar. If I do well that's my own fault for being a fat cow that eats everything. My Fiance' who I live with doesn't seem to help either. He bought this banana truffle cake that was mad sweet. Of course I ate it. Then I'm like oh screw it already messed up started eating pringles and popcorn and special k bars. Grrrr I need motivation I need help no body wants to help me.

I am starting some Mini Goals
1. loose 35lbs by May
2. Drink 10 glasses of water a day (I retain water b/c of medication)
3. Stay far away from salt.
4. Cut out the sweets.
5. Eat Fruits, Vegies and Protein
6. Be active every day even on days I don't go to the gym.

    I totally agree with you about WW and Jenny Craig. You need a great support system, one that is going to be there for you and motivate you every step of the way. As far as the lapband goes, you need to know that just having the surgery isn't a fix all. You have to literally change the way you think about food. It's a lifestyle change. I had to do the same thing when I had my RNY, and the first few times I thought that I could have those chips or that candy bar......MAJOR SICK!!!!! Just make sure you are prepared for all that comes with that. Also remember.....WE ALL HAVE BAD DAYS, WE ALL MAKE MISTAKES....THE NEXT DAY IS A NEW ONE....MAKE THE MOST OF IT!! I have lots of little things I do when I feel like "cheating". Let me know if I can help :) YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!

  Do you have a hobby to keep your hands busy when you feel bored? Jigsaw puzzles, crochet, knitting, cross-stitch, reading, jewelry making, whatever it may be -- keep hands occupied and get something else accomplished instead of eating....

Good luck with the new week

    I understand your frustration. I too have this love/hate relationship with food. Boredom seems to be the thing that always derails me. There are other times when I say I won't eat out at a fast food place and I will get that food stuck in my head and next thing you know that's where I am for lunch instead of eating the healthier option that I took with me to work. If your fiance isn't going to be supportive you just need to find a good support team that is there for you. The biggest thing to remember is not to punish yourself. This is a process and not an easy one. You're gonna make mistakes, just make them and then pick yourself up and start again. I agree with the Weight Watchers and Jenny Craig. I thought of doing both but the money is ridiculous that is spent.
Good luck with everything and just remember to take it one day at a time. I've had many "do-overs".

Your goals are great. Good luck
