Happy new year!

I have just eaten my face off...chicken parm, several glasses of red wine, many rolls hot from the oven...prosecco with Chambord, apple pie, ice cream...

Tomorrow is a new day!

Yesterday I had two slices of pie, and then spent all night being miserably guilty about it. I don't know wtf is wrong with me.

Only feel guilty if each slice was half the pie. Otherwise, what's done is done. No guilt, move on!

(says the lady who just ate cold pizza leftovers for lunch)

Sooo hard when home all day. I was giving DD some coconut ice cream and i was literally drooling/mouth watering. I did not even lick the spoon.

Absolutely - no beating ourselves up over what's done. Just focus on making better choices now that all the holiday temptations are past. Good times ahead.

Back on the wagon tomorrow, for sure. I'm just giong to keep saying that until it happens.

I heard this piece this morning on NPR - thought it was really interesting. Clearly I'm not losing weight right now, but still... come June or so, I'm going to keep this in mind!

Yeah, it was really interesting.

11:30 and i ate my lunch

eating healthy, for me, is hard to not be hungry. Breakfast, as usual, is the hardest meal and i am always hungry early on. I need to just buck up and eat lunch/dinner foods for breakfast, i think it will keep me fuller longer. I had a bit of oatmeal and actually a slice of baked tofu, but that was 3-4 hours ago.

debbatx · « **Reply #5610 on:** January 02, 2013, 11:47:33 AM »

Yeah, I need to improve my breakfasts, too. Not right this second, though - too much going on. I'll think on it this month and try to come up with a plan for Feb, maybe.

I heard that piece this morning, too.
So as expected I'm feeling overfed today. I was pretty good overall (but still eating a bit more than normal) until NYE/NY Day when I just snacked on little things all day that added up.

On my way home from dropping DD at school, I swung into Earth Fare and picked up a package of snow peas and a bunch of juicy fruit (e.g., oranges, strawberries). I know my body will want me to graze today so I'll mostly snack on the snow peas plus some of the lighter fruit and then tomorrow I can start to bring my calories back down to where I want them for weight loss.

diablita · « **Reply #5612 on:** January 02, 2013, 02:30:06 PM »

I'm still hungry. I knew this would happen: I had a Rudi's bagel flatz w/ a slice of cheese for breakfast, a ton of snow peas and a light string cheese. My body's just going to have to suffer today.
I may post a lot in this thread to take my mind off.

Courtney · « **Reply #5613 on:** January 02, 2013, 03:03:53 PM »

I hear ya, D. I had a baked potato and about 1/3 of a Wendy's chili for lunch. I'll be hungry in like 30 min.

triciaflower · « **Reply #5614 on:** January 02, 2013, 03:06:12 PM »

I just made me a big plate of bean and cheese nachos.

diablita · « **Reply #5615 on:** January 02, 2013, 03:15:14 PM »

Courtney. Misery loves company.

oops, didn't actually mention lunch:

I love this line of frozen dinners for days when I squeeze a run/lifting on my lunch break and don't have time to prepare more. But today, the calories aren't cutting it. LOL.

diablita · « **Reply #5616 on:** January 02, 2013, 03:15:37 PM »

and I'm so grateful I can't swipe any of Tricia's nachos.

merigayle · « **Reply #5617 on:** January 02, 2013, 03:24:44 PM »

Mmmmmm nachos. What were we talking about? Lol

Did someone say nachos?

I had leftover chicken parm from NYE for lunch. It was just a small portion and I felt it was my duty to eat it up so it did not go to waste. Now that's done, thank goodness.
