A Good Day

This is what we call a good day, calorie-wise, average in other respects. I had under 1500 calories today and burned over 2000. Oh yeah! I'm looking forwards to getting on the scale in the morning.

I'm waiting for my laundry to get done, just got out a whole bunch of movies from the library. Break shouldn't be too terrible.

Survival

I will survive!

Did good calorie-wise today. Encouraged my this. Had a good day in general. Allowed myself to get hungry, a rare occurance. Was 118.8 this morning but it should get better, one step at a time.

Danger zones coming up: Thursday STAGE meeting and Saturday, all day.

Battle=Lost

Good news: I was 117.2 this morning by some fluke.

Bad news: I ate my weight in buffet at the party.

Hope of keeping myself under 120 through the holidays is fading. I have to get my act together, even if that means starting to skip parties. I'll figure out a way.

Very tired. Yes, it's my birthday, but I'm just soooo frustrated with myself. Happy Birthday to Me! Here's another pound for your belly! That lovely dress? Fuggitabotit!

Night of Dread

I've finally had enough of it.

I've been fighting compulsive eating disorder, whatever you want to call it, for far too long now. I'm 5' 2" and 119.2 pounds, as of yesterday. I'm gonna be a lot more tomorrow. Combine a Chinese buffet and Thanksgiving leftovers. Also known as, doom.

I'm gonna have to tackle eating buffet style in the future now. I guess it's bird by bird. I used to use this blog just as a personal journal. Now it's an eating journal. Read and weep.

I used to be 10 pounds. OK, I was also a baby. My ideal weight is 110 pounds, but I'm happy anywhere from 108-112. It's gonna be my new year's resolution. Just like last year. So in the last year I've managed from gaining weight, but I did hit 113 this summer. I'm very disappointed that I gained it all back, but now I'm determined to lose it.

I eat a lot, for the record. I mean, a LOT. My problems are these: I eat when I'm bored. I eat when I'm reading. I eat to take my mind off work. I eat when food is free. I eat when other people are eating. I eat when I think I might be tired because I haven't eaten. And I don't stop when I'm full, because I don't get full. Literally. I only hurt myself. I think I might have chemical/hormonal problem, when the signals get from my stomach get lost in translation.

Aiming for a better day tomorrow. At least no Chinese Buffet.

Only work (a restaurant) and a party. This'll be rich.
