I would go on special diets and special fitness regimes and my cal carbs and fats would be so seriously low that it would take me not long before i was exhausted and constantly depressed and it would end up in tears and soaked in chocolate or take aways. :surprised::( I found this website on Sunday night, figured out what it was all about, and i have been completely honest and i have energy and feel more confident then i ever have about changing my life long bad habits to good eating habits without feeling like im missing out. I'm going so well that my partner has seen what im eating and has started eating it with me, something i never thought would happen!!! EVER!!!:laugh: Anyway I want this more then anything I have over come lots of problems in the past and this is my only 'thing' left. Believing that im allowed to look good is so hard! Hope i can gain support here cause their might be hope for me yet Thanks so much for your site:) -------------- CharlieGirl

And we didn't feel like any so we came on and got some great healthy recipes to try it was fantastic, i dont feel like i have cheated myself at all!!!:big_smile: and i back to my regimented eating this morning. but i slept wrong and put my back out so no weight training might go for a walk instead i think, or yoga :)

Yesterday I had a terrible day and the fish n chips came out and the ice cream I dont remember the last time i had fish n chips and actually enjoyed them :( Anyway as a result I struggled to eat breakfast this morning got down one piece of toast barely, but i had a better lunch filled chicken salad roll. and fruit and a small sweet. But feel so bad about yesterday. Any thoughts?:surprised:

And I know about the emotional eating Im the same Just dont hold it against yourself and try harder the next time. trust me I been chasing this bandwagon for a long time. You just have to keep at it. Sorry to hear about your back. Things will get easier as you go Somedays are just worse then others. make sure you treat your self sometimes then its not so bad I tend to binge if I go without for a while so I try to give myself rewards along the way. AND SOMETIMES ITS JUST A BAD DAY...scrape your self up and keep truckin girl. :love: -------------- A** kissing only works if you know which one to kiss.
