Oh sweetie! How brave of you to post this "behaivor". Stop looking at is as BAD or FAILED...it's a behaivor that needs some attention and you shined a light on it. It's part of us...the journey. Today is a new day to be conscious of it. Big hugs to you.

AJ, what you have done is helped those of us who think we are the only ones who cheat know that everyone does.
And what you've done is helped yourself get recommitted. Your last sentence shows your dedication to staying thin.
Don't beat yourself up over this. I'm so impressed that you made it this far. I'm way behind where you are, but I'm looking up at people like you who have gotten to their goal, and telling myself that if you can do it, I can too!

Thanks Arlene. One of the things I stress to myself as well as other is to be honest. Writing this blog and logging all 9 ice creams in MyFitnessPal is being honest to myself & that is important to me.
You are right tomorrow is a new day.

It's over with and tomorrow is a new day. You are not a failure, you slipped, we all do some times.
Thank you for sharing this. It helps me and I am sure others, that no one is ever perfect. I eat more than 1 cup at dinner.
Have a better tomorrow.
Hugs,
Arlene

Great blog. We can be our worst enemy or our best friend, it's our choice.
Happy New Year!

no other words needed:
As the new year approaches, stop betraying yourself with the band. Follow your instructions that you were given and even if your weight loss is slow, a pound loss is a loss no matter how you look at it.

I can totally sympathize with you, I have teetered between 205 and 211 for over 3 months.
My NUT asked if I was afraid to be under 200 pounds, and I think she might be right. My daughter and I have both quit losing and she has gained about 15 pounds. I don't know if I am waiting for her or what??
I have decided I AM going to be at 160 by the time I turn 60 in August. I AM going to eat only healthy, unprocessed food 98% of the time. And when I am unhappy about something I WILL walk, instead of eating!(This might be hard, they are predicting 11 inches of rain in the next week!)
We have come to far and worked TOO hard for this to stop now! Good Luck and hopefully we will see onderland before the new year!

It is unrealistic to think we can give up our favorite foods forever, but when we do have them we MUST do it in moderation. I love pizza to, my hubs and I use to order a large and eat the entire thing. Now we still eat pizza sometimes, but we order a small and I eat A piece and we have lunch left overs for the next day. When I want to go back for more I remind myself of how far I've come and I can't and won't ruin it.
Enjoy your food in moderation and add your exercise in and you are much more likely to rock that band!!!
Oh, and I can still eat salad - I just play the little engine that could - CHEW CHEW CHEW (lame I know, by my mom calls me that now
