So ok ive been doing really well with my eating habbits, had first weigh in and lost 4 pounds then last night its like i threw it all out the window :(. i had had about 1222 calories which to be honest is over my normal amount (couldnt resist the wheat crackers) The i felt down right miserable and had a bag of nik naks plus a bag of skips then 3 gingers nut biscuits and one and a half custard creams.... I have fibromyalgia and the pain was intense last night plus i have bpd and to top it off i have puritus ani and if any one of you have ever had it or you are a sufferer i would be SO grateful for advice, guess sometimes i feel so alone in this world...
Hi there, didn't like to scroll past when no one else had commented πΊ
I don't have personal experience with your conditions, but I know a couple of people who suffer terribly with fibromyalgia, so you have my sympathy!
As far as last night goes don't let it throw you off course, it was just a slip - write it off as a one off and regroup! Hide the snacks and temptations, they call to me from the cupboard, so for me they have to go! I realise life is very tricky and it's different for us all, I have switched to drinking peppermint tea when I have the urge to eat, the mint flavour soon puts me off snacking!
Well done for being honest about how you lost control of what you were eating and one thing lead to another. I agree with Folliegirl thst it is best to hide stuff or not eve have it around. When you eat something bad then don't give up for the day, start again that same day.
You really didn't eat that much, not like you went to the chippy and then came home and had chocs and crumpets as a snack. Don't best yourself up. If you usually only eat as little as 1200 calories your body is probably glad for something to have to digest. Keep going
I'm sure many of us have had a day of eating we later regretted but actually in the big picture it's only one evening. Tomorrow is another day :-). Don't whip yourself . It's ok
I know I've had that sort of day in the past before and my weakness is crisps ! even though I know it will make my ibs flare up and I get the worst stomach cramps I still do it... it's only probably been about 2 or 3 times in the last 3 mths that I've done it but i say don't beat yourself up about it.. what's done is done and you can't change it now.. all you can do is go forward and take steps to avoid being in that situation again in the future by not having the food so easily available !
