RB's Sole source hell!

[Rkmriddell]

Well girls in the words of Bradley Cooper in the opening sequence of The Hangover......... I ****ed up!

Tonight I realised that it was the first anniversary of my friends death, it really knocked me for six and I don't mind admitting a few teats were shed, but add to that 2 other situations that brought me down emotionally and I headed straight for the buffet! Bloody emotional eating, I really need to conquer this or I'll never maintain my goals!

The only thing that's saving me from melt down right now, is the thought that at least I had a really good workout tonight at the gym, did a sessionom the treadmill and the rowing machine. So whilst I'm sure I'm out of ketosis the excess calories shouldn't amount to much!

Oh no big hugs will. Emotional eating is a massive part of why were all here. I wish I knew the answer but it's part of the things I'm having to learn too. I think we need to just try our hardest to find a distraction from the food maybe a bath or something. I know that wasn't possible for you though. What's done is done like you said you fitted the gym in so a least the calories shouldn't be much and it doesn't sound like you went crazy. Pull it back today x I hope you feel a bit better you know we're her when and if you want to talk xxxx

Hey RB, your human, loosing a friend is devastating and when we realise what day it is, there's like a sadness and guilt thing that we only just remembered. But the truth is, we never really forget, they always pop in our heads from time to time sometimes for no reason at all we think of them. Anniversaries are hard cos they are the day they died and we usually remember the good bits about them living when we think of them.
Eating the buffet is no big thing, unless you make it a big thing. You'll be out of ketosis, not the end of the world, you'll just be hungry for a day or two. The weightloss might be slighty less this week, nothing to worry about. If we never went into ketosis it would still be a vlcd, so we would still loose weight.
So big man, you didn't ef up, you done what most of us have done at sometime on this diet x
Long post, hope you feel better today xxx

Slip ups are part of the diet and part of life. And offer an opportunity to learn what triggers us to overeat. I've very sorry to hear you had such a tough time yesterday, but don't beat yourself up on the buffet eating. Learn from it - what other things could you do that might make you feel a bit better (go for a drive/cycle/run/walk; hang with a friend; be with your gf; go to movies; ....). If you think of some alternatives now, then the next time you have a tough time, check the list and do one of the alternatives. May not always work, but it gives you options you've thought thru in advance. For me, when the going gets really tough, I go to bed. Can't do much harm when asleep and it lets me forget whatever has got me down for a little while.

You worked out, which is great, and you're right back on the diet. Drink loads of water and you'll be back in ketosis and on track in a jiffy.

Hope you have a much better day today!

Cheers you lot, I really appreciate the support. I've still not been 100% but only had a wrap but also had another gym session. This is kinda how I see my eating going once I'm peeling away from sole source. I'm just writing last night and today off and will be back 100% tomorrow. If I'm not I will send my address to Sharon so she can administer that spanking!! Xx

RB - I consumed 4000 one sat night and drank at least a bottle of wine but got back on SS the next day and still lost weight - maybe a pound less normal. Anyway - I had a good night!

 

[notlongnow]

Just caught up on your diary - sorry to hear you've been having a tough time. We will all struggle at times for one reason or another and what matters is not that we have gone "off plan" but what we do afterwards - main thing is just to put a line under it and get back on track - over the long term it probably won't have made much difference unless you let it throw you off.

Hope you are feeling good this evening. Think about that emerging six pack and you'll be fine!!

Again, thanks, i thinks its helped that I've set aside today as a day of plan rather than a slip up, I'm off for a nice long bike ride tomorrow morning at 10 so I'm sure ill burn all those calories and then some, it will be interesting to see how my body holds up as my mate is looking at us doing at least 30 miles as we head UP into the cotswolds.

Been to the cinema tonight but went into the screening rooms in Cheltenham, which is part of cineworld, but in a different part of the building and set up as a premium experience, absolutely fab night, proper big leather chairs, waiter service the full works, was a bit pricey, but not a hot dog in sight!

Thanks again for everyones kind words, sorry I've not got round to thanking you all individually.

Good luck on ya bike ride tomorrow hun and glad you has a lovely time at the movies and no sausage in sight (hot dog I mean) whoohooo Wtg you xxx

Just back from my bike ride, wa not quite as long as originally planned due to a late start on my buddies part m, but still managed 23 miles through the Cotswolds with some good hills included. According to my HRM I burned 1640k cal but I've not adjusted my weight on it yet so I expect the actual figure was slightly less.

I was interested to see how my body coped with that much drain given that's burned nearly 3 days worth of SS intake. But I managed very well, although given the "slight deviation from plan" that occurred in the previous 24 hours, I might have got away lightly!

I'm sure we will see the true results on Tuesday
