The tale of a Mini-Binger
Well I had a crappy day/night yesterday (work) and well one thing lead to another and taddah! I had the making of a mini-binge. It was so strange because it started out with some homemade and somewhat healthy cookies and then lead to (what I believe was some good snack choices) vanilla steamed milk, lime Krackles (the entire bag), and then I WANTED a grilled cheese. Did not do it! Thank god. What would have been next? No I had 1/2 oz of feta! That ended it. Now what is up with wanting all that calcium/fat?
I was so upset with work. I wanted David to leave, but he would not. He did the sweetest thing. When I said I was going to clean Meeshka’s cage, our hamster’s cage, he said no and he did it. He made me hold her and FUR always makes me smile!!! *smiles* He said it is no biggie if you have something, but just know that it is not the end of the world. For awhile it was all good. Did not sleep well and woke up at 5:00 AM a wreck. Anyways, I want to learn to resist when I need to resist and then be fine with the occasional treat. When can I have a SMALL treat? I do believe it has to be when I am happy. The blues always bring on the nasties! Well live and learn for sure. And I wrote and communicated by email. I am thankful that I had a sweet lady who helped me out of my funk. She, was the only one I communicated with on Buddyslim this weekend I am so thankful for her. She may blush if I say her name, so I will let her comment IF she wants. Thank you infinity! Of course, people are busy, but people should just know here, if they need someone, I bet there is someone “near” by. This food thing is like a drug sometimes and I feel like I am in AA or should be in Over Eaters Anonymous. Well we all need a helping hand and I love the interconnectedness of this little site
Well, went for Vietnamese at this Vietnamese/Chinese restaurant after the gym and chose well. Soup with tons of veggies, crab, shrimp and chicken (no noodles) and salad rolls (thought I would get my simple carbs there…lol) My fortune cookie read “Admire those who succeed and learn from their success.” Well, that is what I am doing. Happy to say, I am feeling really well. Now that really did not take so long. Good people, relaxation, clean house…. and if my Oilers win tonight again, well I just may have to celebrate with, a late night walk. It is getting cold, but the walking is still great. Does anyone use wrist or ankle weights? Just curious how effective people find them. Have a fabulous weekend/week.
*hugs*
And a big thank you to you as well. Who would have ever thought?? LOL. It is nice to lean on someone when you can and learn from it. You helped me too. Thank you. I have never used wrist or ankle weights. No help from me on that one. ;0 I agree with you on the food addict comment. I have been feeling like that for the past 3 days or so. I am ready to pull myself out of this funk! Here is to a great week!
We all binge I have done it in the past week ! Yes, you’re right if it weren’t for some of the people on here I would have eaten everything in sight . Yes, I am very thankful for all the people on this site ! I am not really sure why we eat emotionally . When I feel crummy I usually want to eat bad foods . So if you find an answer to not giving into the temptation let me know ! Big hug !!!!! Kimmi

I’ve read ankle weights are injuries waiting to happen, so I have always abstained.
Jennifer, I am really sorry for not having been around when you needed me. I have been in a weird funk myself and don’t know how to get out of it. Still, that’s no excuse. I need, WE need to get it together for ourselves and those who love us. God bless David for trying to make you feel better–so glad he’s in your life!
I promise to do my best to stay around more, I just have been SWAMPED with work!
Bad game, so where do I go, Buddyslim…hehe. Well ladies, let’s pull ourselves out of this funk and do our best. We can do it!
And Jo! Now way, it is not like that. We have lives and stuff happens so it is no problem that people are away. I have always said, I will send out an SOS like I would like others to call on me if need be. But, things sometimes happen for certain reasons. Anyways, since life happens no one can feel bad for not being around. I for one only read the blogs so often. Otherwise I would be on all the time. So, thank you, but no worries. Sorry you have been in funk. *hugs* Goodness, such funkiness out there. Ladies… it is time to get it all together… Let’s do it
Big hugs….. and Motivation!
Thanks for the info. Jo on the weights. Much appreciated
I just get bored quick…
Sorry I wasn’t here when you needed me! Big house cleaning day and I’m not done, yet! But so you binged, we have all done it, at least you stopped yourself! Good job on that, and on the Vietnamese food!

Oh, I love little furry pets, too, we have a ferret named Buddy, and he always makes me smile! Have a great nite!
