Uncontrollable Urges

Take your mind out of the gutter, it's not what you think.

A friend recently admitted going on a binge eat. Well, I can fully sympathise. Since I had my band loosened a couple of weeks ago, I have been eating almost everything in sight. And there has been a lot in sight. We bought up big for the after-reception party that never eventuated. Only a few people came back to our place so we have (or had) lots of leftovers.

And we had 2 barbeques that weekend, so there was a lot of yummy food for that too. I made all that confectionery on the weekend, plus biscuits, and have managed to eat a lot of that myself. My husband recently made the comment that all I did this long weekend was lay on the couch and eat. I actually take offence to that because I didn't lay on the couch all weekend at all....

I really need to knuckle down and control myself. I am seriously thinking of going back to the doctor and getting the band re-inflated a fraction, about halfway between where it was at too tight, and where it is now. Surely it's all a mind game, I can't be eating that much more than I was. It was only a couple of mls difference...

Whatever the case, I seriously need to take a look at myself and take action...if I don't I will undo all this work I have done. 22 kg is not close enough yet to where I want to be.

Well, back to my potato, salsa and lite cheese...mmmmm

Yeah, binge eating sucks. I have a BAD habit of it at night time - and I haven't worked out the best way to fix it yet. It still follows on from NOT smoking.... and I just need to break the binge habit now!

That wasn't nice what hubby said... but my boy is similar and makes such comments to me - he reckons I'm on a See-food diet - see food and eat it!! hehe.

Taking action is the key mate.... I really need to do that soon too... it just gets so hard sometimes!!

By the way... love the new piccy on your blog. Looks great!!
