  • Ha!

    I just reread the title from my Sunday post.  lol  That isn't what I thought I wrote - nothing like being high on Nyquil!

    I'm (for the first time) watching an episode of Ruby.  And as with a number of women I see on TV or in person, I look at them, determine that they are larger than I am, and am then shocked to find out that I weigh more than they do.

    For some reason (and probably a large part of why I have a hard time cutting back and being more attentive to what I'm doing) I see myself as I looked probably 100 pounds lighter.  I weigh 370 pounds.  Granted, that's 5 less than the scale at my doctor's appointment in LF when I got the spider bite - but really?  Holy crap!  I don't have any idea what I was weighing when I tried on and bought my wedding dress, but there is a chance that I weigh more now.  I need to get my crap under control.  I have to believe that me drinking water almost all the time is going to help things - but it can't do it all!

    As soon as this ear infection clears out, I gotta get moving.  I can't live my life like this.

    And I know we have all been touched by addiction in our lives, but I would quit smoking 50 times over, if I didn't have an addiction to food.  Its so much easier to give up something that you don't have to have to survive.  The problem is that I have food-gasms.  Seriously, probably one of the best ways to describe my addiction, it's so pleasureful. 

    Gah!

    SOOO yeah, I have this ear infection - and I'm on Amoxicillin 875 mg TWICE a day.  I don't think I've ever had an antibiotic that potent... I guess ear infections aren't anything to mess around with.

  • I have said the same thing about food addiction... its not like you can just stop eating... I think that is why a low carb option worked well with me, I could eat pretty much all the time as long as it wasn't filled with starchy carbs, then when I was losing the weight, the high from that helped me carry through... you can do it Tia, believe in yourself!

  • I so can relate to that...and with PCOS it makes it so much harder....I started tracking my food intake on Spark people which has helped...I actually liked Jillian Michael's book Master your Metabolism....her philosophy is don;t eat anything that does not have a mother or come out of the ground...eat about every 4 hours and for make sure your snack has protein in it...since I am back in school I started with the gym in the mornings...over all I think support and not denying yourself small portions help...but then I am 306 at the moment...so I am not sure if what I amdoin gis totally right either

  • I hate antibiotics. They do a number on me.

  • Ruby has such a great personality. I've been watching from the beginning and see why she has so many close friends.
