I have no idea why I am so hungry...I don't think that I am physically hungry, I think it's in my head. I've made terrible food choices and have eaten way more than I am supposed to.

I'm not really sure why? I'm frustrated beyond belief...GRRRRRRRRRR:cursing:

Crap on a cracker...I figured it out...TOM made me do it...GRRRRRR, why do we have to go through this every month it's just not fair....pout pout pout pout

Hey Bashful, great job reaching your first goal!!! How much have you lost? I've lost about 50 pounds total, but recently hardly losing any. I am also making terrible food choices and eating more than I think I should.

But..I think I know why...THANKSGIVING.

I'm in mourning over the loss of food!

My first holiday and a food holiday!! I feel that I am ok, but a little voice inside me is telling me that I should be able to eat pumpkin pie, oh yes I can, dressing, and all the other foods that go with Thanksgiving. Not fair!

So, what I'm doing is eating a little more interesting foods and little more sweets-ies every day in anticipation of the foods that I won't be able to eat on turkey day.

Anyway, I'm wrestling with the same thing here.

Soo, congrats with meeing your first goal and being so tiny and small!!! :biggrin:

Yeah, the whole Thanksgiving thing is tough, it's one of those holidays that you just can't get around being around food. I've decided that I am going to work most of the day so that I don't have to be around it the entire day, just that night for family dinner. I'm planning on bringing my cute little pier one plate and having some of everything. Shhhh, don't tell Jennifer I'm even going to have a little piece of pumpkin pie. I don't plan on eating it right away after dinner but, I'm tellin ya before the night is done, this chickie is having some pie!

I figure it this way, I have to live with this band for the rest of my life. I have to be able to enjoy food like everyone else, just a lot smaller portions. I'm really going to have to focus on eating slowly though. I have a really hard time eating around people because they eat sOOOO fast! I have to eat slow or I end up getting stuck. I have 5.5cc's in my band right now and have thought about having a little tweak done after Thanksgiving to get me through to Christmas but, not sure yet.

I have started planning my meals and packing my lunches so that I don't fall back into the old habits of eating out.

Glad to hear you have lost 50 pounds that's amazing denouement! I'm so proud of you!
