Do you ever just lose control?
I was doing amazing for almost 2 months and the last 2 or so weeks I have been like an animal! Today especially. I needed salty. Had chips, then I needed chocolate. Had some. This happened a few times today where all I wanted to do was eat bad things. Like I knowingly sabotaged myself! I feel like a psycho. And AF was last week so I can't even blame that! I have been saying I am starting fresh again tomorrow (with my 21 day fix) so it's like, let's see how awful I can do today. I actually feel sick and embarrassed. WT F! Wah. OK vent over. I WILL start fresh in the am!

Re: Do you ever just lose control?
Often...I'm a stress eater, especially when I can't run, or I'm in the house with sick kiddies. But it's important to snap out & start right back in again.

Re: Do you ever just lose control?
Yes all the time lol! I've accepted it's never going to be perfect or done and give myself credit for doing what I do!(primarily doing things that keep me healthy and well!)
Don't beat yourself up!

Re: Do you ever just lose control?
This happens to me too! I give myself 1 'cheat' day per week where I eat/drink whatever I want - then I go right back to being good the next day. I find that this works best for me, if I don't give myself 1 day, I end up going on a week-long binge!

I get like this sometimes too. But I allow myself one cheat day a week, which usually is just one bad meal. And I dont buy chips, cookies, candy, etc...so they're not in the house and I cant eat them!

Re: Do you ever just lose control?
Thanks everyone, I woke up this morning and did my workout which is a good first step back in. I may try the cheat meal idea because then maybe I won't go crazy lol like I just did. I need to stop this crazy cycle I put myself through! Feeling good

Re: Do you ever just lose control?
Yes, it has happened to me. I am someone who eats when they get stressed. Don't beat yourself up about it, just get back on the wagon. Like the other ladies, I let myself have one cheat day a week so that I don't feel like I am depriving myself. I look forward to that day but I also look forward to going back to lighter eating during the week. It's a good balance for me

Re: Do you ever just lose control?
Of course - the important thing is not to have the mindset of "well I was bad yesterday, the hell w/ it today" b/c then you just sprial out of control.
A bad day or a bad weekend or a bad week on vacation isn't going to kill all of your hard work ..........but a bad two months .......you know?
Don't obsess over it - it will happen again and again, you'll just wake up the next morning and get back on track.

Re: Do you ever just lose control?
When I need salt, bc I am a HUGE chip lover....try grabbing a peeled cucumber and salt it. It has the same crunch and satisfies the craving for salt.
