For me it's simply sweets. I've done the Atkins nightmare for a year and NO THANK YOU! Once was quite enough. Bran Muffins are OK, and one plain (unfrosted) old fashioned donut a week is OK.....at least for me.

welp-"JUNK" with sugar covers it for me, and that includes marshmallows.....had a few tonight so I have to start over. I have have HAVE to get some acceptable snack foods or I will lose my mind, and this will keep happening. I have been living on carrots, chicken, tuna, fat free yogurt, fat free cottage cheese and fruit---and I am hungry for a treat especially at the end of the week. <SIGH> tomorrow is a new day

Had a great weekend here--and a party yesterday at my house. I bought goodies for others. I had plenty of fruit etc for me, and I was fine. Hope everyone is doing ok!

Here and there I have a tinsy piece of very dark very bitter chocolate for the anti oxidents. It doesn't yell "bindge" to my taste buds, but it gives me a kick and is supposed to be really good for me. I haven't abused it. I huge bar was given as a gift to someone in my house. I don't know, I probably shouldn't..maybe I am kidding myself? The scale is finally beginning to speak to me in a lower voice

Keep coming back, GG, and Cali...it's up to you...I am reminded that I sometimes think there are OS's that are not OS's. Yesterday, I was at a pot luck and avoided the dessert table...but I pigged out on the various jello's without thinking...and I pigged out by going back a second and third time with large platefuls. As Roxie says...I ate in a very disordered manner. Today I will try again.

Yesterday was OS free...but was disordered. My dinners are too-often on-the-fly...and I do not choose to eat healthy. My program is not solid enough that I am on-guard and ready to use all the tools (besides OS) at my disposal. The result is high-fat foods, not lean, and processed stuff instead of fresh vegetables and fruits. Thinking what I am doing incorrectly, writing it down, admitting it, and figuring out the planning to have the right foods in mind...if not in hand... are parts of the solution. Here's the list. Thank you all for being here for me. Roxie-1/30/09 - 20 days Cali-2/13/2009 - 6 Days Jack-2/18/2009 - 1 Day To all on hiatus...please check in regardless....you're missed. |

Today I am feeling shame. Shame is one of the hardest feelings for me to deal with. I will attempt to get to the bottom of why I am feeling this - without harsh self-criticism. So, for today, I will find a way, other than disordered eating, to cope and understand what I am feeling. Now that I know better, I will do better. My past does not predict my future. I do not have to repeat past behaviors. Today, I am living in the present. My sincere gratitude to all for this place and the opportunity to come here and be honest without judgment. Peace. |

I don't know what to write today. Roxie...thank you for your steady progress...I see my eating now as disordered...I have choices...sometimes the right eating choice requires advanced planning rather than winging it. Too often I wing things and count on luck or timing or self-will to get me through. In business, one of the lessons I was told was to think it through and not to wing it.

I have one day and it is possible I can have a second day today. However, I want to end my late night disordered eating of high fat, probably high carb foods. Roxie-1/30/09 - 22 Days Cali-2/19/2009 - 1 Day Jack-2/18/2009 - 1 Day |

Hey Jack and the rest that hang in here. You are such an inspiration. I am glad to see you all here. I am checking in.....actually I check in on you all on a daily basis to see how things are going, but have not been posting. Sorry. I haven't had much to say. But I thought I would say that it is good to see you all sticking with it. I have been sick this past week and a half with my asthma. I have been to the dr.s and got some more med's to help. Hopefully I will breathing easier again soon. Thanks Jack for keeping this thread going and encouraging everyone.

Hi all, I'm here tonight and hopefully for the future - a day at a time. I've been here before, but always drop out because I'm ashamed I haven't stuck with it. I was able to put down alcohol and drugs the first time - this has proved harder. Jack - this thread is an inspiration and keeps calling me back. I am putting my best effort in now - my kids (Liam 2, and Sheila, 4) need their dad around. My diabetes is out of control and insulin is a possibility. No more excuses - I've recommitted to working out and praying about food. I'm starting Day One as of now. I'm going back to read some posts and wish all the best. Mike |

Welcome Roxieinrecovery...I hope you find what you need for the happy, joyous and free from addiction-behavior life you want. Our bottom lines are self-defined...mine are no foods with sugar listed first or second, no donuts, sweet rolls, candybars, desserts, etc. Roxiestone has described disordered eating...and I am starting to work on that...for me it is late night high fat high carb foods. Mike from BeanTown...great to see you back...I need to be around for myself and my loved ones....I need to show character and integrity by working a program that gets and keeps me healthy. This is part of my recovery program...no one in the family really knows about this OS recovery...but they know I generally stay away from OS's...and that is a behavior change that only came about by coming here. Roxie-1/30/09 - 23 Days Cali-2/19/2009 - 3 Days Jack-2/19/2009 - 3 Days RoxieinR - 2/21/2009 - 1 Day Mike - 2/21/2009 - 1 Day |

Greetings all, and welcome roxieinrecovery(and welcome back Mike). Well we were without a computer for a while, as our one died- much to the kids dismay. I was just thinking this new laptop was pretty good until I tried to log on to SR and once here find my way around- all in all must have taken about 20 minutes; I am going to be pretty wound up if this is a regular event. Anyway, eating has been pretty up and down as it has been these last few months. I was off work this week and took the kids to my Mothers for a while, not the place to be if you are trying to eat healthily. I got some exercise there though, so it wasn't a total disaster. I hope to get back on the count but won't ask to do so until I can get a few days under my belt. Good to see you all still here, hope you have a good evening.

It's good to read about you, Dave and Mike..and let's read about you...RoxieinR...What's going on. For me, coming here, being honest, understanding that I can OS abstain...but I don't do much about late night high fat high carb stuff. I would like to read about what you folks do after...say 8PM...mine has been eating unhealthy stuff. I have to plan my evenings betters.
