I'm slipping
I think I'm falling off the wagon. I gained 2 pounds, according to last night's weigh-in at Weight Watchers. Here's my $12, thank you very much, my head sagging, lip pouting.Today, I just ate a half bag of sugar-free Hershey miniatures which I'm already sorry for. I'm under stress so I eat. Why am I such an emotional eater? Why do I think that eating something sweet will take the stress away. It never has before, only makes it worse. Yet I continue to bash my head against this wall.Why? Why? Why? Related: MaryMaraghy's blog | login or register to post comments | printer friendly version | Tags: weight watchers

never tell yourself you are cheating on a weight loss diet, make a pact with your body to give it good food so you will never have to sweat out a bad cholesterol test or worry about taking medication to fix the problems we make with bad food choices. I know about bad food choices. I know every fast food menu in town backwards and forwards but for me what worked was realizing that 95 percent of the time i have to forgo candy fast food etc and it is depressing for a time but you get over it and replace it with a much better feeling mentally and physically. Of course everyone wants to tell you what works for them and why you should do what they do. But you never know when just reading one more thing about weight loss might stick a little. One particular Oprah show talked about hunger and how it is actually ok to feel it. Now I hate to be hungry but I try it out occasionally ( not skipping meals mind you) just so I don't have to run to the kitchen every time I get the pang. I think we should all make a pact in the workplace to and ban super fat sweets and junk expect maybe for special occasions! anyway good luck and just know slim or overweight we are all struggling to resist right along with ya!

It's okay to fall off the wagon occasionally. We're all human!
Get back on that wagon. You've done so well, you've come so far, you're such an inspiration to the rest of us!
I'm an emotional, stress eater too. Why can't we be those people do forget to eat when they're stressed? Luck of the draw, I guess. And hey, at least they're sugar free Hershey miniatures!
Keep on trucking!
When we get home, let's all walk, walk and walk some more!
