i made a really bad food choice tonight

[juzmejnee 9]

Tonight a co-worker gave me a piece of a chocolate mousse ( maybe 3 oz ) and said to bring it home for the hubby. I've been pretty good staying away from sweets but tonight I was very very weak for some reason. My husband will never taste it because I ATE IT!!!!! No I feel like crap plus soooo guilty!!!! Anyone else have moments of weakness?? Uggggggghhh! I FAILED

You didn't fail. 3 oz. of mousse is not going to ruin you. Go get yourself some sugar free Jello pudding and sugar free cool whip and make your own guilt-free mousse. And tell those people no thanks next time they try to foist something like on you. You're only human!

You didn't fail - you just hit a road bump! And let me tell you, I've been hitting them all week. I just ate way too much ice cream that I didn't even want but it was just calling out to me and then it made me feel like crap afterwards.

I guess we learn from these things. It makes me want to make sure I put the damn stuff in the garbage before I'm tempted next time! You with me? I'm looking on towards a new week of no sugar and no white carbs to get back to where I need to be.

I made biscuits and homemade jam today and I ate half of a biscuit with some jam on top. I won't be having any more, but I still ate off of my plan. I just won't have any more carbs today. No biggie. Don't beat yourself up.

That is hardly a fail! Just a learning experience!!!! With the very few calories you are consuming, a little mousse won't make a difference. Now you know your triggers and you can avoid putting yourself in that situation in the future. I can NOT have oreos in the house. I have downed 3 or 4 (yes after surgery). My kids don't miss them and I sure don't either!!!

Tomorrow is a fresh new day! Celebrate yourself and all you have accomplished

i worked at the State Fair today... and you all know what rotten choices for food there is there... I did bring a Protein Drink, so at least I got some Protein in... then I planned on and ate a chocolate soft serve cone. I also walked the 1.4 miles to my car and back avoiding the shuttle. Life happens and I want to be there when it does! Plan, enjoy and move on....

I eat what I want OFTEN. Sometimes, if I do it without thinking and then starting beating myself up, I quickly remind myself how much I would have eaten before being sleeved. No worries...move forward!

THanks everyone. i think i am my worst enemy i will try to move on from my bad choices and make better ones

I sure didnt have this surgery so that I could NEVER eat a piece of cake or a cookie.....I had this surgery so I dont eat half the cake and or 15 Oreos......no one got fat from eating 2 oreos or a slice of mousse.

Exactly! Just don't stretch your tummy out with too much stuff, even the good stuff.

I once ate a 350 calorie cookie....yep...350 calories of delicious buttery shortbready goodness. and I felt guilty and horrible and like I had failed....and then I remembered...Normal people don't beat themselves up over a cookie. NORMAL people with a Healthy food relationship would just eat the damn cookie enjoy it and move on with their lives.

[kellyw74 258]

My thoughts exactly!!

I will not get fat from one or two Cookies, but surely will from 10!!

Also not from 1-2 pieces of pizza but will from 5!!

That was my reasoning for the surgery too! PORTION CONTROL!!

Don't beat yourself up over a few bites of something. You WILL NEVER be able to eat like you did pre-sleeve again. If you have a few bites of something "bad" once in a while, it will not wreck your plan. Just don't do it everyday!!

Hugs,

Kelly

Don't beat yourself up over this. 3 Oz of Chocoloate Mousse a failure does not make. Now if you start doing this every day and eating more than a single serving... then start to worry. But for that, just enjoy it for the moment and move on.

I agree with everyone who posted. I don't keep junk in the house that I will eat but if I want something sweet I will have to go out and get it. Don't be so hard on yourself.
