Munchies
Does anyone else do this? I eat pretty well all day then I fall into the munchies. I eat little bits of stuff in my fridge.
I was well on my diet yesterday when after 10pm, I fell into the munchies. I had a small slice of cheese, some summer sausage, grapes, and a serving of baked chips. WHY? It didn’t satisfy anything. I didn’t gain any weight but that isn’t going to help me loose. I did throw away some other temptations in order not to do that again.
They closed my gym location closest to me and now I am a little lost. They have another branch open but that is way far away and packed until the new location opens in February. I am thinking about the old alternative of my apartment gym or outside running. I have a couple of videos but I live on the second floor and I feel the floor move when I try to do them. I need to take up tennis since I have a tennis court right next to my apartment. I will work out today, if even for 20 minutes and I will do a full workout tomorrow. I am ready to loose again like I did in December. That was awesome!!!!
I am close to changing status on my BMI. I go from Obese to Overweight at about 163lbs. That means taking it from 36.6 to under 30. YEAH!!! That means much to me. I remember in my high school health class measuring my BMI and my teacher making me stand in front of the class as she explained the dangers of obesity. I cried my self to sleep that night needless to say. Obesity doesn’t only hurt the body but it hurts the soul. I hear some people say once your fat your always fat despite weight. It is something you cant forget. I think its time to start dropping some of those emotions along with the weight. Allow myself to totally become healthy.
I dont have to be a fat girl anymore….
I get the munchies now and again but have to put a leash on them so they don’t get away from me ! When you figure out how to get rid of the fat girl in your mind let me know cuz I really struggle with that too ! I wish you much Luck ! Kimmi
Man, I could have written this blog! This sounds just like me. Last night, I ate great until about 10:30. Then I decided that I had to have chocolate. I had a tootsie roll and a fun size hershey bar. I really notice that most of my bad eating is late in the evening. I really don’t know how to get rid of the fat girl mentality. I lost a bunch of weight about 8 years ago. I went from a sz 16 to a sz 6. Even in a 6, I had body issues. If you find out how to let that mentality go, let me know!
eating at night is my downfall too…good for you for throwing out the bad stuff…always feeling like the fat girl no matter what…one day we’ll let go of all that.
THe munchies happen to me somteimes too. Try drinking a bottle of water first. That seems to help me. I know what you mean about the BMI. It means alot to me too! Tennis would be a great workout! I hope you get a gym soon!
Great post! Don’t let the gym being further away stop you from going. It will be worth it. I have to drive twice as far to go to the new gym that they just opened up and basically drive past the old one that is still open by the way, but the new one is sooooo much nicer that I actually enjoy being there so it is worth it to me.
Good luck with getting over the fat girl mentality. Even when I had lost weight and was no longer fat I always felt like the fat girl.
