DUMPTRUCK...
I have been on a bad cycle again. Things have been really stressful around here.
I had Jack in the Box tacos for lunch today and Huevos Mexicanos for dinner...with a VERY sugary Margarita. I fell asleep shortly after dinner, which was at 1:30 in the morning. I woke up at 4 a.m. and can't go back to sleep. I am about to go for a bike ride.
Yesterday..lets see...I had....Totino's party pizza...and.....then Flakey wanted to go to Whataburger. At least I got a fish Sammich and no fries...fried fish sandwich on white bread with cheese and tarter sauce...
The day before that we played in Lafayette...untouched by the storm it was but there were several New Orleans paramedics hanging out on the street...At one point I vaguely remember drunkenly eating a Frito Pie..at least it was a small Frito Pie...not to mention the salty road snacks on the way to the gig...
I need to stop...
I am 30 now I can't keep eating like this.
I don't need lectures...I know better...I am gonna juice today and start back on my smoothie regimine. Just frustrated with myself and my congenital lack of self-control..I am just like my dad...who constantly binges and constantly vows to make changes to his diet but can never stick to them.
At least I don't eat gigantic heaping buffet plates of food like he does.

Sun, September 4, 2005 - 9:53 AMNo lectures here, because i have trouble following my own advice. I feel for you completely, 34 and overwieght like every other female and 80% of the males in my family, where food was used as comfort. Also bummer for me, i work in fast food, not naming names, but when you get 3 free meals a day, you tend to eat them and some times french fries just sound so much easier and tastier then a salad.
Maybe we should all buddy up for some emotional suppost, just an idea. I know i could use the help.

Yep..that is pretty much what this tribe is for.
It is tough working in food service in general.
Everytime I have I have gained tons of weight.
I used to work in the Deli at Whole Foods..gaied lots of weight...Worked in an Ice Cream Parlour..gained like 30 lbs...
Worked at 50's theme diner..rode my bike there and back miles everyday and did not gain or lose any weight...while eating the greasy food there...

Re: My body is a.....
Wed, September 7, 2005 - 12:40 PMI gave up trying to do it by myself. I decided that I didn't really have the knowledge to eat food that is good for me. Some foods are so obvious, but others aren't, and I never knew which were which. For example, if I need to eat more protein because I'm a vegetarian, and I eat nacho cheese, does the need for protein outweigh the fat content?
So, I decided to join weight watchers. I've been on it a little over three months and have lost 13 pounds. I fit into all my pre-wedding clothes. It's been slow, but I'm making progress and learning along the way.

Thu, September 8, 2005 - 6:09 PMi think you might stick to things a little better if you just would do one thing at a time.
like give up processed sugar stuff.
and then when thats not a chore give up junk food/fried crap.
and then give yourself a couple days a month where you eat what you want.
