Where's my will power?
Today was a day not to count calories! First, my husband and I went out to breakfast with another couple. I knew I shouldn't have ordered the pancakes but I did anyhow. Afterwards, my husband had to hear me say "why did I eat that?"After that, we came home and I got my work done for class. Then I got the call from my brother asking me if I wanted to join him for dinner down the shore. After I declined, I was asked if I could walk his dog while he stayed at the shore with his wife and friends. So off I went to see Rufus. Finally, dinner with the parents. I did good ordering the ceasar salad with salmon but then came the dreaded question... would anyone like dessert? Sure... the brownie sundae please with three spoons. So much for will power. Well, tomorrow is another day. I actually will be busy cooking pancakes (regular, chocolate chip and banana walnut) for a breakfast for my husband's church fundraiser. I am already telling myself .... no pancakes, eggs only. We'll see what happens.

I'm wondering where mine went as well. I have gained a good 20 pounds since the summer. I am feeling horrible and still shove food in my mouth. I keep buying larger clothes and haven't stopped eating. I need to get motivated or else I will hate myself. Feeling very depressed about this. Good Luck to you.
Don't feel bad- I had a "bad calorie" weekend...
Friday: burritos and large consumption of beer...and chips, tons of chips
Saturday: coconut/banana pancakes, pasta with tons of cheese, pizza, and hamburger/fries.
Isn't it funny how we all talk about food? Honestly, my weight tends to always be the same, or within a 5 lb. range of difference --it's silly to obsess.
Here's my diet theory: if you eat tons of bad food, immediately drink tons of water. The water makes the "bad calories" disappear.
PS My theory has not been validated or approved by the FDA:) ...but it makes me feel less guilty:)
I worry about it too. My metabolism has started to slow, and I don't weigh what I want to. But I love to cook and have a really hard time limiting certain foods. That's a quick way for me to binge on those foods. Plus, it's hard for me to fit exercise into my schedule... well, you know too. Let me know if you figure out a better way.
