The I confess post is my absolute favorite, but you don't see it anymore in the feed. So I'd like to get one going again.

I confess that I had a kid's size movie theater popcorn last weekend. And I loved every kernel.

I confess that I bought a full length mirror because I'm becoming more vain.

I confess that I still wear larger clothes because it makes me feel thinner

I confess that.... *CRINGE* I look at larger people differently now. I used to empathize, but now I think to myself..."GET OFF YOUR BUTT!"

I confess all i wanted was carbs this weekend, and I ate chocolate and waffles. But in general, I confess that I'm wickedly pleased that by the time I see one of my best friends (in another part of the country) again, I'll likely wear a size smaller than she does. She means well, but is from a very judgemental family and has always been disapproving of my weight gain - but super supportive of my loss attempts too. I feel a little shallow-competitive, but, it's I confess time!

Kind of an odd one and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. If I watch people eat it kind of disgusts me. It's usually if it's like sloppy eating with lots of big bites. Never even noticed it before and no it annoys / disgusts me. Spent a week with a friend and she eats constantly, eats everything and takes really big bites... wanted to kill her by the end.
A more typical one is I sometimes have days when I just don't care and kind of am 'off'. I always track, but on those days the physical limitation of what I can eat saves me..

I feel the same way. I suppose it’s because I have a lot more time to watch people eat because I eat slower and usually finish far sooner than everyone else. I was watching half my family eat corn on the cob and it was like nails on a chalk board.

I confess....my plans changed today and I ended up doing something extremely naughty. My kiddo and I wanted to go to garage sales and plant shopping today, but it started raining and got really cold out (40's)... and my mother dropped over unexpectedly for coffee right when the kid came home.....so instead of shopping, we took a three generation spontaneous road trip to the casino and celebrated Mother's Day early...Vegas Style. Yes, I know...I am mommy of the year... *sigh* But we had fun, dammit.
We each took $40 in. Three hours of entertainment later....Kiddo got out of the casino with $60. I got skunked and made it out with $15. And my mom was the big winner, escaping the casino with $100.
My mom likes to play the games. We humor her. It's also funny as hell to watch all the old people hitting on each other during the day.

I love some gambling once in awhile! I usually stick to the penny machines.

I am freshly sleeved, so my belly is still bruised and bloated.
But I love the full length mirror idea!
Real confessions will be posted when I have some

I got one off Amazon for $50. It’s a lot nicer in person.

I confess myself and a certain person started out with a BMI within a point of each,other, have roughly the same activity level , eating foods with the same calorie level, othe person dropping weight like gangbusters, I'm plodding along with a pound pounda week if I'm lucky. What does the other person have I don't? 10 years younger and male. Grrrr[emoji83]

It can be really frustrating when we compare ourselves to others. Unfortunately, just a difference in gender can be a big difference. Stay strong.

Nothing wrong with a little extra motivation.

Thank you! I can't wait to give these a try!

I confess...

-that I shoved a potato chip in my mouth Saturday, chewed it and spit it out.

-I obsessively weigh myself every day.

I did that with a bite of pizza when I was early on. I think we've all been there at some point or another.

I would do that with my solid foods if I could figure out how to get credit for part of it

I confess I drink wine more than is probably recommended for weight loss patients, but I still lose every week so I don't really care.

I confess I too look at obese people differently now that I'm on the losing track. And I scold myself for it every time I notice I'm getting judgey thoughts.

I confess I had a personal size bag of "Popables" or whatever they're called--like air chips--this weekend and they were delicious, but it's the first time I had what I consider cr@ppy snack food since surgery in November and I hated myself for finishing the bag and even getting it in the first place. Won't be doing that again--the mental anxiety after is too much!

I confess....i cheated on my liquid diet and ate pizza for lunch! [emoji22]

I cheated on mine with a fountain diet dr. pepper. And mmmmm it was good. I remember thinking, it was going to be that or a Big Mac from McDonalds. Glad I stuck with the soda. It was weird too, because I had given soda up for 3 months prior to that.... SMH.
