Recovering Foodaholic
Oh dear me, have just arrived back from a brief stay with friends (6 days) and my scales say I have put on 7lbs!!!!!! HA!
If it wasn't so ridiculous I would cry. I was supposed to go up to 810 for this week, however I just ended up off-plan as we ate out so much, and when in Yorkshire one simply must live on pie and mash and roast beef all of the time.
OK a little list of what I consumed (if squeamish look away now...)
Day 1
CD bar
slice of corned beef
KFC 2 piece chicken
Roast pork (meal, not just meat)
Day 2
Cooked brekkie- egg, mushrooms, bacon
CD bar
Roast Beef
raspberry & blackberry cheesecake (I was still religious about water and water
flavouring at this point)
Onion bhajees
poppadoms (and sides)
garlic naan
chicken tikka sizzler
rice
ice-cream
half a glass of wine (which I didn't enjoy)
I would like to say here that I did avoid a whole day where ale was consumed...
Day 3
CD shake (thank goodness)
pork & rhubarb sausage toad in the hole & mash (it wasn't very nice actually )
cranberry topped porkpie
crisps and dip
popcorn
Day 4
Egg sandwich (made me feel sick in the car)
Chicken & Mushroom Pie and mash (I'm sure it was 90% butter...I left the beans!)
Cheesecake and ice-cream
Chocolate cup-cake
Crisps n dip
popcorn
(still no ale, which was good)
lots of tea with milk and coffee too...
J20s
diet coke
Day 5
Cooked brekkie of bacon, beans and mushrooms
Roast beef in onion gravy and chips (was supposed to be a sandwich but bread was making me feel poorly)
Starbar
Britvic 55
J2Os
jacket pot with cheese n coleslaw, couscous, 3 bean salad, tomatoes
chocolate brownie cheesecake
Day 6
CD shake
pork pie
beef hula hoops
minstrels
KFC 2 piece chicken meal
coke zero
I am now home and now not suprised why I'm weighing 7lbs heavier and am not in ketosis.
I'm not listing the food here to tease people but just to look at what the hell I've consumed over the last few days. I've not binged. I've eaten socially with everyone else and eaten similar things too. If I went off plan at home there is no way that I would eat half this stuff. I had it because I was 'on holiday' and 'allowed', which in fact is total crap.
The most important thing is that each time I consumed heavy- carby- bready foods I felt incredibly sick.
I felt so very car sick at one point, nauseaus for and hour and a half and that simply doesn't happen to me.
I felt bloated, my intestines hurt, I needed the loo all the time, but felt constipated as well (sorry if TMI).
Yes I had a brief enjoyment and emotional satisfaction of eating some of these foods but the physical sensations that occurred after were not at all pleasant.
So why did I do it?
I'm now gonna have to get SSing 100%, drink constant water, go through carb withdrawal headaches to try and rid my body of the crap that is making it so lethargic and try try try to lose a couple of pounds before monday's WI. I've come so far and am cross with myself for damaging my body. Which I could feel happening in real time.
I'm gonna print this list of food out and the feelings that I had after eating it and put them on my fridge door. I'm gonna right my before and after weight down too and give myself a right good kick up the arse.
Oh and by the way...I did have a lovely time!
