Well done on the loss, lovely!

Do wonder if the fact that you're starving hungry if you wake up in the middle of the night is another sign you're not eating enough though xx

Make sure you drink plenty tho to help flush out any nastys and you can get very dehydrated so be careful x

Having a very positive mental wave at the moment.
Have just tried on all the clothes that I've bought for Florida so far and it hit me (it does sometimes and not others) that I'm not fat. I'm not skinny but I'm definitely not fat. I'm pretty normal and right now I'm good with that. Even tried on my bikinis and whilst I def need to lose more on my stomach I didn't look grim or how I imagined I would. Florida has left me feeling VERY motivated right now. Can't wait to get out there and I'm determined to look as good as possible when I do :)

Well, I can't quite believe (although I really can) that after my super positive Sat and part of Sunday I'm now about to post the following.

After dinner last night I went OFF THE RAILS, infact I ate the rails...and the train, and the passengers. I can't even explain how disgusting I was...crisps, chocolate and haribo in epic proportions. As per, I woke up this morning still feeling ill (as is normal after I have one of my binges) and feeling pretty crap about myself.
I genuinely don't know what happened, what triggered it or what I thought I was achieving by doing it. It has only made me feel miserable and disgusting.

Just like last week I'm going to try and just get back on it and carry on as normal. I fully expect a gain of some form this week as I literally ate SO much.
I'm not happy about it but I did it to myself. I need to work out how I can go from being so positive at the start of a day (Sunday seems to be the issue) and f*"K it up so.
badly by the end.


Monday
Lunch
Pineapple and muller light.

Dinner
Chicken, 55g of pasta, 4 syns of philly, HEA of cheese, mushrooms, pepper, sweetcorn and onion.
 
I think I'm gonna have to go back to Sunday weighing at the minute as I seem to be ok on the day that I actually weigh, then on Monday's I don't have the same time to think about food so hopefully it could help.
I'm just fed up with the way I'm getting on, pledging to be good and carrying it out for a while then spoiling it all. I need to shake myself.
 
It appears my mood fluctuates as the scales do. Yesterday it was 2.5lb up from weigh in, today it's 0.5lb up and I feel better

Breakfast
Toast (HEB) 1 syn of ketchup and egg.

Lunch
Pineapple and muller light.

Dinner
HEB2
of toast,2 x LM sausages, 1 egg, mushrooms and 2 syns of ketchup.

Snack
Apple
Banana
Muller light
KitKat-5 syns.

Feel like I've eaten an awful lot today but I'm clinging to the fact it's within syns (as long as I'm counting daily not weekly lol)

Oh Jenna, what are we going to do with you :confused:. Im no psychologist, so I could be talking a load of bull, but maybe you need to look at why you have these blowouts.....Im not going to call them binges because I think that is a more serious condition in my humble opinion......also, why you have the guilt that is associated with it? If you could understand those 2 things, it might help you to get to the bottom of it. However,
I think if you spoke to every person on this site, we would all probably say we do the same and really is there anything wrong with it? The problem would be if you let the overeating/blowout continue to the next day and beyond, but you dont.
So think of that as a huge positive Jenna and know that you're not alone in what you do, try and not feel guilty and be proud in what you've achieved :) x

Oh Jenna - I just want to give you a big hug and tell you to chill out! It's just food. It's just one blowout. I know that feeling of disgust with myself and I know, for me at least, there's usually something else going on that's making me feel miserable too. What helps get me out of the blowout/guilt rut is planning something really scrumptious and SW-friendly - a break from my staple go-to meals - so I look forward to it, I enjoy it and it makes me feel good. I know when I get focused on those few lbs that seem to be taking forever to shift it gets really easy to forget how many I've lost already and all the weeks I've been a SW succeeder (is that a word?!)! Don't beat yourself up too much, missus - brush it off and breeze on!

I loved your post about trying on your bikinis. I reckon if you'd come on holiday with me and compared yourself to the other women around the pool you would have seen yourself as one of the teeniest there! It certainly did wonders for my body image and how I see myself and I've a long way to go before I get to your lovely figure. I think Kim and the others have said it perfectly over the past week or so. Remember the bigger picture!
 
Hey ladies,
I appreciate the comments but honestly don't worry about me. It's pure stupidity on my part. I'm generally not down about anything at the moment, in fact I'm pretty happy most of the time (unless I've eaten the world) as I'm constantly thinking about Florida. I genuinely have no idea what causes me to do it, it may be just that Sunday evenings seem long and the idea of going back to work? I truly don't know. Or it's just me being a greedy mare!

I just hope that this week I don't make it a third week running and can get a grip of myself. I've been looking at girls pics who are in Florida at the moment and they all have amazing bikini bods so I'm hoping that if it comes to it on Sunday I can flick through their pics and try to talk myself out of any silliness.
I do really appreciate the concern.
 
Went to bed aching last night and have woken up the same way this morning. I'm on my feet all day everyday in my job yet yesterday seems to have kicked my arthritis in to action for the first time in ages...I'm assuming it was all the bleddy walking. Literally feel like I've gone 12 rounds with Tyson.

Anyways, scales today are showing 9st 3lbs today (pound up from weigh in) which is making me feel like I can get a maintain this weekend if I behave myself (though I'm still preparing for a gain).

EE day
Breakfast

Toast (HEB), 1 syn of ketchup and an egg.

Lunch
Pineapple and muller light

Dinner
Chicken pasta bake-breast of chicken, 55g of pasta, 4 syns of philly, HEA of cheese and the usual veg.

6 syn choc bar

I've a parent interview at 4pm today which I'm looking forward to as much as I would imagine someone looks forward to getting shot. Delightful.

Glad you aren't feeling down Jenna, sometimes your posts are worrying but maybe its just a case of having a rant about weight/diet related stuff on here when you can't in other places, I know I do that sometimes about stuff and probably seem like a right nutter....not saying thats what you seem like of course ;)

Sorry to hear you have arthritis and a parents interview today! Whats the parent interview for?
