I went off track and had my hand in every cookie jar from October until January. Now I am on track full force and feeling great!!

I actually fell off the wagon on Christmas and Boxing day too!  But am okay with that as today is a new day!  Although I'm going to a dinner party tonight, but will behave with portion control.  

Have a great day everyone.

I actually didn't do as bad as I have in years past and except for Christmas day I even exercised everyday.  I took the 25th off.  I had small portions and I did have  a few treats.  My DH filled my stocking with chocolate though I begged him not too He has never been a healthy eater and when I am not in remission with my eating disorder (which I am right now) he thinks the way to help me is with unhealthy foods (he just does not get it)  I hope every one had a wonderful Christmas!

Just a couple of cookies/treats here and there.

While I was pretty good, I gotta confess that part of the reason was because I totaled my car on Tues. driving "over the river and through the woods."  No serious injuries for me or my passenger, but kind of a shake up!  So I guess my mind was off of food, for once!

I worked out today and on Wed., but am not at full speed.

Also on the bright side, family who haven't seen me in awhile thought I looked good when they came to pick us up from the ER.  That's quite a compliment, esp. when you're covered in cuts and bruises!  

Seriously, the injuries were very light all things considered.  Now I just need to wait for the insurance to make their move.  Maybe this distraction will continue to keep my mind off of food?

Hope everyone is well and getting back to normal habits!  I'm sure we'll all feel better once we're back on our routines.

I"ve been very bad.  I went away last Saturday to visit family and had a hard time saying no to my parents.  Then a family death occurred and I stayed longer and ate emotionally.  Both my husband and I overindulged.  However, we just got back into town, sent home all the sugar with our son, and are clearing the final other remnants and are ready to start anew tomorrow.

Ok - I'll go next!!! I fell off the wagon too, but "nothing broken, only bruised a bit".  I know I gained - ate mashed potatoes with gravy, cranberry sauce, pecan pie, fudge and probably some more things I don't recall right now.  I'm not sure, though, how much of the gain is from eating and how much is excess fluid. I'm really retaining fluid for some reason and it didn't go down over night as it usually does (my fingers are fat and stiff, my feet/toes are huge and painful; even my glasses are cutting my nose this morning).  

Bottom line: I'm feeling rather fat and frumpy, but let's keep in mind that sometimes we FEEL fatter than we really are.  Goku - you're not hopeless - you've done a great job and I've no doubt will get back on track soon.  

At any rate: let's not beat ourselves up because I think we all pretty well suspected (or planned) that we were going to indulge at least a little bit, so let's not beat ourselves up after the fact.  Let's all just strengthen our resolve, climb back on the wagon and move along.  And yes, I'm going to have to work out extra hard too.  

Whatever happens, it was Christmas and to be enjoyed.

Ok so I will go first lol...

I was not so good.  I saved Christmas to be a cheat day and boy did I ever.  I had three chocolate chip cookies, red velvet cake, potatoes, steak.  It was so good but afterwards I was sooooo uncomfortable.  Now I have to work extra hard at the gym for some food.  Makes it seem not worth it, but it was still yummy lol.
