i dont know what my problem is, i constantly talk myself into being good, then before i know it i am being bad...


but im goona sort what i have now come to terms with is my addiction to food, and my addiction to eating loads of it..

i could just sit there and munch my way through a whole chocolate bar (not that ive done that for a long time ) and not stop. i need to learn and reeducate me brain to think. ok one or two pieces is enough i dont need anymore. its still going to be there another time.

which i know now stems from my childhood. we were never allowed many things nice, and if we were then it would be left out on the kitchen side for us to put in our lunch boxes, we were never taught oh if you fancy something have it if you dont then dont, so i alwyas hang out for the moment that something was left in the kitchen for me to take to school, therefore couldnt wait till i got to school, so i used to eat it on the way (more times than none) which i think contrubutes to my brains way of thinking now... if ive got something nice now, i have to eat it all before it gets taken away, and "left on the kitchen side" for me later....
another thing wth that, is if i found the stash of goodies so to speak, then i would steal one (no one saw so no one could tell me off) so thats where i get the secret eating now.....

i need to get this side sorted before i get anywhere near goal, as once im not going to be on such a strict plan (fats etc) then im going to go mental again and eat the entire shop of anything "bad"

if you figure how to re-train your minds way of thinking let me know, i too could easily eat a bar of chocolate by myself, not something i normally admit as i feel quite embarrassed about it. Dont get me started on bags of sweets or crisps!! |we will get over this Kes!!

Hope your having a good week!!

Maybe you could try reverse psychology kes! Tell your self you can eat the whole stash of food in there but no ones gunna take it so I'll have one piece now an then come back for another piece after work?

Ah but Rachel are you talking about a small bar or one of the big bars ?

Sent from my iPhone using MiniMins

(silly phone I wasn't finished!)

It's taken 20 odd years to develop the eating habits so it's probably gunna take a good chunk of them years to develop new ones!

Don't be too hard on your self lovely! You have come sooo far already! I think it does the mind good to stand back an address the situation! It means that getting back to it you have all the original drive an need to get the weight off!

Keep smiling lovely

I think it works sometimes as I have a similar issue my brother could eat anything and all he liked but I was only to have 1 I became very sneaky and could take the metal lid off the glass cookie jar with out making any noise, and then stuff my face while hiding in my room in the middle of the night!! I am proud of the fact I could do it. My mum thought my brother ate them and was happy he like them lol so bought more...

I tell myself now if I want I can have 1 or 2 biscuits, know what haven't eaten any for a couple of mths They are in my cupboard my kids eat them ( used to be 1 each for kids plus 1 for me) each time they have one I think yes I can have one if I want, they are 57 kcals each.. Do I have one Not recently

Ok doesn't always work, I have to be thinking about my choices, bc if I'm not thinking my hands are feeding my face 2 steps ahead of my thoughts and decision making process!

tfk its a big bar lol!!

I'll get there, and yeah its gonna take time... just have to stick with it...

I've been walking to work lately (its been bloody cold, but I've enjoyed it) and this morning I'm going to walk to Pilates, (in the snow!) Brrrrr so I've been doing loads more, just gotta start the brain on the train if eating right.

Hmmmmm what to have for dinner tonight............

Anyone git any ideas?

Hey Kes, Remember me? It's two years since I lost my lovely Norman and I'm just kinda getting my life together now, so I'm ready to address my weight problem once and for all. I'm not on xenical this time, I'm doing weightwatchers but I thought I'd pop over to see how you and Kae are doing and I'm SO impressed with you! Well done girl! Anyway, good thoughts to all of you and I'll keep checking in.
