Hey Y'all! This challenge is about the journey to getting Back on Plan or BOPpin'. Just a little place for you to come when you fall and allow the carb cravings to get to you, or you have a bit of a feeding frenzy, or any other kind of carb creep. Perhaps you just want a place to be accountable for what you're eating and such. So you can look here for some support to get Back on Plan and Bop a bit on your lc journey.

Ok, so now you know who has been in a feeding frenzy....that would be me:o so I am back and have been on plan now 2 days with today being my third! I have went off plan only twice in 2.5 years and this time it was hell, I ate myself sick unlike the other two times where I had something off plan, this time it was a flash from the past, donuts, and giant cookies, candy, anything I could get my hands (and teeth) on! I felt myself going into a depression and I guess I should have made my plea for help (small as it was) here because I lost it! It scares the hell out of me to lose control like that, even my ds asked me if I really wanted to eat those things.....he knew I was headed for a crash but of course I did not listen, I was in a full blown self destruct mode and nothing was gonna keep me from hurting myself, how insane is that??

So anyway here I am, proof that one bite of sugar is too much and 1,000 not enough!

Thanks again Rhonda,
I need to look at it as toxic waste and eat good things, and it did not taste good either:(

I have found that as well Junie..... h/c food just doesn't taste the same anymore... I think your tastes do change after time with this WOE. Just drinks plenty of water and you will be fine. You can always PM me if you need to talk more personally

Good thread MizKitty. Its true that junk/hi carb food really looses its taste. Its a bit like that kind of food gives us up as much as we give it up? In that it no longer really hits the spot for me either.

Well, I was decent today. could have been better, though. I seem to struggle with eating enough food each day.

LC wrap from Arbys - but I threw away the tortilla as it was gross
LC pbj
2 slices of sf pie
1 bottle water.

I did go shopping and bought some cute things and make up! Whee! I'll try to do better with eating enough tomorrow. Its not so much eating things that are bad for me, its not eating enough period. OO, speaking of periods, i started new type of pill today so hopefully I won't be a crazy woman here in a few weeks. heh

Junie, glad you're back girlie. Keep going with the getting BOP!

B- 3 pieces sausage
L- cheese sticks and 6 bites of salad - note to self avoid food service/cafe salads. they're gross
D- ?? I really don't know yet.
2 bottles water.

I so wanted a cookie today. They were left over from the labor meeting last week, but still.. But I didn't though. I came close but then 3 girls from last year came by, one not even recognizing me and the other 2 wanting to know how much I lost. So I abstained from the cookie goodness.

Settled on bacon with some lc biscuits and gravy for dinner. Gonna try to get another bottle of water in tonight.

Hello, girls! I got an invitation from Junie to join you here....so here I am! I need someplace and someone to be accountable to!

I'll start now. I gained 5 pounds from Friday to Saturday on my latest (and hopefully last) carb binge. I am at 233 as of today. That is 12 pounds over my lowest weight from last year.

Today I had an apple and some sunflower kernels.
Lunch was Barbecue brisket and ribs (no sauce) salad w/Ranch, 2 tbls. potato salad, 3 deviled eggs, and a cup of "no sugar added" ice cream.
Dinner was 3 pc. fried chicken and 2 plums.

Not my best day (nor my worst!)

Also, my "Big 5" are:
*Eating on plan
*Drinking enough water
*Getting enough sleep
*Taking my supplements
*Exercising

I know if I do all these things EVERY day, I CAN lose weight. I just need to set my mind to it. That's why I'm here. I will check in here and let you all know if I've done my "Big 5" each day.

FEEL FREE to ask me about any aspect of my plan and why it is I haven't done it. I have no excuses and I need help! I promise not to get mad, I will be grateful for the accountability!

Welcome Maxibee! Sounds like you had a decent day yesterday, go you! Today, I'm going to do really well. I just need to go make some breakfast before class starts. The foodservice stuff should be settled today and the god O'clock girls are meeting today to work out our excersize schedules. Should be fun!

Gosh, I surely need to be here! Went on vacation in mid August and even though I am back at work, I still have not gotten my eating back to where I would like it! I haven't even dared weigh myself since I know I would really not like what the scale says. It is 2:30 in the afternoon here, and so far so good today. Hmmm..I have been eating like crazy for about three weeks, and it has also been about three weeks since I checked in here. Maybe I sense a correlation.........
See you tomorrow! (for sure!)

I need to really get back on plan and stay there. The first six months I only cheated a couple times now it seems to be a weekly thing. And I need to get back on plan with exercise as well. I know I can do it if I try but I haven't been trying hard enough.
