The Stupid S&^t we Say...

hi friends

so this week was actually pretty good. I stayed focused, drank oodles of Water, focused on my Protein, logged what I ate and didn't eat just to pass time. And the scale finally moved! Plateau busted?!!

Then last night i'm laying in bed and the stupid crap pops in my head...

"Why am I in such a hurry to get these last 30 pounds off, i can't afford to buy new clothes let alone new unders or bras."

WTF! Why do we try to stall ourselves with loads of mental crap. :thumbup:

This morning I told myself to shut it - these last pounds are done. i dont care if i get so healthy that i am safety pinning clothes to fit better!

So i figured maybe we need a thread to post the stupd crap we think. We have all thought it. We're not alone. And once its posted - its out of our heads and holds no power.

anythings possible.... :biggrin2:

Sure but this is probably not the thread to do it. Infact I felt a bit bad posting the comment about the puddings at all as this is a thread for us to vent our head issues not to actually tell each other how to "fix them". But I'd be glad to PM it to you or post it on a recipe thread.

Oh, sorry I guess I didn't realize it wasn't something good for us to eat. I don't want it unless it's low carb so never mind. thanks for clarifying. Be well. KKG

The puddings I make are low carb at least by my definition. It has a bit more than twice the grams of Protein compared to the grams of carbs which makes it better than all the Protein Bars I've seen on the market.

I just didn't want to be responsible for turning this thread into a thread where we were telling each other what to do about our head issues, even if I was only pointing out how I wasn't following my own past advice.

I think it is good for us to have a thread where we can do a little self bashing without fear of someone giving us a tough love comeback on how what we are doing to ourselves is wrong. We already know what we are saying is wrong or we wouldn't be posting it here in the first place.

OK here is a crazy head issue.

Girl Scout Cookies. I buy them every year to support the Girls.

At the moment I have 7 boxes.

I can sell or giv away 4 and my brain is telling me keep ONE box of thin mints so you can have it later.

AHHHHH NO NO NO!

I am getting rid of all the thin mints AHHHH

My friend said she wants them and will pay for them.

How much more F'ed Up is my Brain for telling me to keep them.

LOL-----beleive me, I get the cookie thing, it is knowing they are there!! Mine from last year, are still in the door of the freezer!!!

This year I supported the girls, and bought the Cookies, and put them in the Troops for the Troops box----they will be mailed out to military troops, they gave us a Sharpie marker to write messages on the box.....the woman next to me wrote "Standing here trying to decide what to write, these cookies have already lasted longer than the last box!" Made me laugh. Hope the sale is over soon!!!!

Kat

LOL I am determined next year I am not buying cookies!

No reason for me to be buying cookies.

But I think the Girl Scouts is such a great thing for the girls. But DAMN I dont need theose cookies.
