Needs Some Support



Recommended Posts

I'm in need of some support today! I ate 2.5 cups of frozen yogurt this morning for Breakfast after a fight with my husband.. I'm ashamed and have not emotionally ate in SO long. Brings back a lot of unhappy memories... :( just need some love today!

Get up, wipe off youself and have a really good rest of the day. Track your yogurt and make some good choices for the rest of the day. Nothing you can do about it now, it is done, and you realized it and although didn't stop it, acknowledged it. Tomorrow is another day.

Yikes..... hate that! Well, it's done. I agree try to work it into your daily calories. I'd do an extra 30 on the elliptical! :blink:

Hope your day gets better!

Pick yourself up and dust yourself off. Bad choice - maybe. Life-altering? No. The best thing is that you recognized it as emotional eating. I was an emotional eater for years before I realized it! Each day brings about new choices. You have plenty of opportunity to "redeem" yourself :)

I agree with all of the above. Great job for recognizing it. now put it behind you and move forward. What's done is done. Don't look back, because you will only hate yourself and keep on doing at least that's how it happens with me. I ate ice cream and oreo Cookies. I felt myself falling back into my old habits and quickly recovered. I talk to myself and God and it really helps. So I wish you best of luck and keep us posted.

Frozen yogurt.....better than ice cream. 2.5 cups.....better than the whole container. You recognized that it was emotional eating, plus there too.... Sounds like you are starting to master this.

We are all human, we all have hiccups in our journey. Learning how to best manage those hiccups is the key and you are learning.

Continue on, talk with hubby, work things out and don't be so hard on yourself. I'm proud of you. I thing you managed the situation well. ((((hugs))))

What's done is done. Don't beat yourself up. Brush yourself off as that doesn't define you or your success and doesn't make you a failure. If you start feeling bad about it, it may make you get back into the emotional eating as well. So move on and do better the rest of the day.

If you are still stressed or upset, try going for a walk or do something with a friend to distract you from going down that path again.

Big hug!

We all have our days of habits that creep up at our vulnerable times. That is what makes us human and who we are. A new and glorious day tomorrow but also a moment to reflect on our emotional needs. Tough week for me because food is not going down so smooth this week, it's hard.

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
