I got through last night! There is a really terrific weight loss support board, 3 Fat Chicks and you can find help for just about anything you can think of. There's boards for all the food plans: Atkins, South Beach, Sugar Busters, Weight Watchers, and so on. There's a board for people with diabetes and one for people with depression (like me). There's a board for people considering weight loss surgery (the dreaded gastro-intestinal bypass), people in different age groups, and so on and so on. It's really cool!
I did pretty well throughout the day ... until Kristin mentioned that it's Friday.
Friday has become a traditional "treat" night. The only thing is, instead of getting some small one serving size treat it's turned into the "super-sized" desserts. That's part of the problem with this addiction. I cannot eat one potato chip and I can't eat just 1 scoop of ice cream either.
If I was talking about booze, I'd just resolve to not drink again. I haven't had an alcoholic drink in almost 25 years.
If I was talking about cigarettes, I'd never light one up again. I haven't smoked a cigarette in almost 20 years.
Well, I can't give up eating. What I could do is totally swear off chocolate/peanut butter/candy/ice cream. As if.
It continues to be a struggle.
PAST: Been crazy once?
Well, as Norman Bates said once: ?we all go a little mad sometimes?!
PRESENT: What drives you absolutely crazy?
Every sadistic moron in NJ seems to work at the DMV.
Saying the same thing over and over and expecting something different to happen. Like:
?The garbage needs to go out.? ?Give me a minute? instead of ?Right away!? OR
?Don?t forget to take your medicine?. ?I?m not stupid!? instead of ?Okay?. I have to admit, though, that this last doesn?t happen anymore.
What else? Chocolate and peanut butter cravings.
FUTURE: Figure you'll go crazy someday?
Hmmm, maybe all us crazy folk are the sane ones!
