Well, I got through my first day without bingeing. If fact I did very well on my food program, exercise and water intake. I felt pretty awful most of the day, but I refused to let it interfere with my quest to get through my first day back on a healthy program.

I did great on my food intake for the whole day. I was hoping for a little more exercise - I want to do an exercise video and walk a total of 2 miles each day. Today I did the exercise video and walked a half mile on the treadmill. And I was hoping to get 6 8oz. glasses of water in, but only managed to get 5 in. But you know what? I think I did very well considering that I was not feeling well all day. And I think the good point of the whole day is that I did extremely better than I've been doing for a few weeks now. I'm not aiming for perfection here, I'm aiming for "better".

I got up about 6:00 this morning. I grabbed a bottle of water to get started on while I put fresh bedding on my bed. I noticed after about 3 drinks, my stomach began feeling a little quizzy. So I'm reluctant to jump right into my exercise video. I thought I'd do a little posting on DT and see how I feel after I eat a little breakfast. I may have to just stick to the walking today, give my stomach a little time to settle down after eating so horrible for so many days.

My focus for today is to do the best I can with my food intake, water and exercise, without turning to binge eating for any reason. I realize it will take some time before I start feeling really good again.

I too am back on track after a terrible week end! I binged so badly on Sunday that I was up sick during the night with terrible heartburn. I actually hoped I would vomit but I did not. I don't know why I was so out of control. I had a great week end with hubby, no real stressors, no real excuses. I do tend to be a celebration eater and perhaps that sense of celebration set me off. All I know is that I have not binged like that in a very long time and do not want to repeat it!

Yesterday was greatly improved but not perfect. Today I am 100% back on track. I hope you all had a better week end than I did!!

Yahoo Cindy,

Isn' t it a wonderful feeling when you have a good day. Way to go with the exercise, healthy eating and water.


Dreamkeeper I celebrate way to much too. Unfortunately I also binge eat over anything. Way to go on getting back on track again.
