Grocery Shopping Woos
Well, I had a bad day yesterday. It started out grand! I was feeling thinner so got on the scale and found that I was down to 176. Tried on a bunch of clothes that I haven't fit into in YEARS!!
Well, then I went grocery shopping and hadn't eaten anything. By the time I got home it was 2:00. I was putting the groceries away and found the ground beef/bean/taco seasoning mixture that was leftover from my taco salad a few nights before. So, I proceeded to put cheddar cheese on it and heat it up, knowing that the beans have carbs in them. Then, I had 7 Doritos and sour cream with the mixture. Well, then I had MORE chips and THEN I had a nutty buddy bar. YIKES!! The worst part is I had 2 pieces of pizza later on. Today I'm back up to 178 and feeling like a jerk! I'm hoping that some of it has to do with water retention from all that salt and have been drinking a ton of water. So, I think the reason it happened is because I was grocery shopping on an empty stomach and saw all that good food. By the time I got home I was STARVING and lost control. Fair warning....don't grocery shop on an empty stomach. :( |

Just a suggestion. When I go grocery shopping and find myself hungry. I get a 1/4-1/2 pound of meat at deli counter and eat what I want. Then I pay for the bag, empty or otherwise, at checkout. This diet, any WOE actually, is about finding strategies to get around problems and succeed. |
That's the truth!!!
Some of my worst downfalls have been at the supermarket on an empty stomach!! Last time was a whole tube of condensed milk, not to mention half a darn salary!!!
Keep your chin up, it happens to the best!!! You'll surely get back down to 176 in no time!!! |
Thanks!
Thanks Zuliekka and Chocolate!
I could really just kick myself! I was doing so good! I'll know better next time. Feeling more hungry this morning than I normally do. Probably has to do with all the carbs I ate yesterday. Shame on me! Thanks again! It's nice to be able to admit your faults and downfalls and get encouragement from everyone here. |
:wave: I am sure it is just water weight and in a couple of days it should come off. :wave:
