Emo Bullshit Diverted (Narrowly)

[jamesq]

I had a big damn emo post that was about 75% written yesterday. I couldn't quite roll all my points into a coherent whole, so I left it to sit.

Socializing yesterday and some SCA paperwork today allowed me to beat and hammer my demons back into their fell pit so I feel less of a need to be an emo crybaby.

I will say that yesterday was hellishly difficult from a dieting perspective. I was utterly convinced that there was no point, which made it very difficult not to stuff my pie hole with every candy bar I could find. This would have been pure emotional eating, since at no time was I ravishingly hungry. However, I did not do this and had enough points left over at the end of the day to have a Long Beach Salad at Brewsters, which was mighty tasty.

I've also been a good boy today and eaten lightly, leaving sufficient points for snacks and/or booze.

You go James! I have done really well this week. I didn't have any trouble sticking to my points and had a few workout points left over a couple of days. I haven't even touched my allowance points yet. Mainly because I want to get back into the swing of things and I had to work this evening, which usually I get out at 5. I'm thinking I'll use some tomorrow.

I'm really glad you were able to not go berserk yesterday. YOU GO James!

I hope in the future when I am feeling somewhat similar people will encourage me. Even though you've had a tough time on your journey and haven't finished it yet you are a great inspiration to me. Without your help years ago I might have never tried weight watchers and could have ended up in a very bad place physically and psychologically. So Thank You for inspiring me.

I wish you well.

Are you doing the new momentum plan? The one that seems to be a combo of Core and Flex?

[jamesq]

I'm on Flex. The momentum plan doesn't seem to be a big change to Flex. More sort of a way of eliminating Core without looking like their eliminating Core. This is fine with me because if I could "eat to my satisfaction level", I wouldn't be in this situation.

yeah really! I get that totally. The new plan confuses me, but I'm not a member anymore and just use my older materials and the internet to keep myself on track as best as I can.
