Well... here it is Sunday eve.... My weekend was good....
It started out....having to postpone a date on Friday...til Sat....was ok. Then..I was gonna make chicken....my teens said....Dad we want pizza... I was like..ok.... ( thinkin I will still cook the chicken and eat that ) Well...... Admitting here now..... I decided today was my 2% time of the week my 1 cheat meal of the week ......3 pieces of Hawaiian special pizza and 3 chicken kicker pieces from Dominos on Friday.....then a bowl of vanilla ice cream with 4 tbs peanut butter infused into it....Maaan was sooo good.... But..back to the other 98% of the week.... Since I DID eat that on Friday... Sat I walked a brisk 6 mi.... (while daughter was at soccer prac for2 hours around the park walking trail). Sat night....date night....we went to dinner....( baked chicken and double veg....and ice water...) we went to a pub after...watched the Rockets - Clippers game..( rockets won !! ) and..... then had 1 beer... and ice water the rest of the night.. listened to a good 80's - 90's band.... had fun...left about 1:30 am............. Sunday got up...stopped by the gym on the way home....Swam 12 laps....sat in the hot tub....loosen the muscles up....prepping myself for Mondays 2 workouts... I think my cardio time of 60 min is good..... I need to attack the Stairmaster again on Mon morn.... Quote:
I have been....( I have an exercise ball I need to do more crunches on...) The funny thing is.....you think of these things at the "wrong time"....or at an... hmmmm.....time when you should be thinking of other things...... I So I was there.....thinkin....hat on top of my reg routines and exercise.. I need to do the push-up workouts I read about...and more back exercises...and last..more stairmaster for more thigh endurance... figuring out exercise routines to help other muscles. Eating was and has been good rest of Sat and Sunday... Sunday afternoon my daughter had a soccer game.... they lost...3-0. it was a good game. Well...I am making pork chops and salad for dinner..... Oh...and I weighed in today..... still at 312....so.....No change in weight from my Friday night cheat night....my Sat workouts and 1 beer Sat night. and then sunday workouts.... that makes me happy.....We will see Monday !! |

haha...No.... its not like that ya'll...it's complicated...No...I KNOW she Knows what
a great catch....we have known each other a long time....its all good.. I got this.. we are good right where it is for now....just occasionall dating and just hangin out as friends..its a transition time from...being In-love to dating ....to.. "seeing each other"..to...Just good friends. I know that seems backwards... but..it is what she wants.....so I still stick around...cuz... well I do love her. But....it fades ever so softly when...the emotional love has been lost..... Oh...I sooooooo do not wanna talk about my personal life there..... So..No..I am NOT dating anyone... and..I AM good not dating right now. Quote: |

I am Fat... I have been fat....and then lost weight...got fat again... was I always fat..
no... will I be...No....am I now yes....clinically....yeah... I am fat.... how did I get this way.? Well how does a drunk stay or get drunk... how does a drug addict stay High?? how does a sex addict stay satisfied.... I can think of many ways addicts stay to their choices... do I Chooose to be fat ?? no.... I am a food addict. I have denial issues.. the only thing hard to swallow when you are a food addict...is.. the truth. I am well aquainted with the concept of denial.. in fact I'd say that being fat is in itself a state of denial.... when you are fat you sometimes look at a photogragh of a group of people and think.."who's that fat guy?" then you realize its you...you sometimes catch a glimpse of your fat self in a store window or passing a mirror... and you dont recognize YOU. you think..surely not..!! and yes it is.... and.... oh God ! the moment of horror to make the mental picture of yourself....a readjustmenr to blockout that horror... As a fat guy I have become adept at denial on many levels.... for instance I always carry around in my head at least 2 versions of what I look like... from the trim to slightly over weight... the real me- the belly...the chin.... the round face... it all gets buried in denial. I was also in denial about something else too....the fact I was a compulsive overeater.. there I was at my fattest....cruising along the sidewalk toward McDonalds...( when I say cruising I dont mean I was a great walker...I was more like lumbering ) Still there I'd go... walking toward the golden arches....smelling the oil...the meat... the buns... fully intending NOT to order fries.... and stuff them into my mouth like a buzz saw..! and then...Click... something would happen.... I'd be there and order...this was the exact moment of denial.... I KNOW I shouldnt do it...but I did.. I KNEW I would regret it.. I did.. I KNEW I would punish myself... I did. I move forward..the decisions been made....then you binge...step inside that little world of pleasure...INside the binge you are Outside of yourself... where things are more clear.. your hunger is bigger... your cares are less....pure appetite...nothing else. It does the trick...it works... Meanwhile in the real world... the world of me being fat again... the world of lumbering...I have banished it...it doesnt exsist..It has BEEN Denied ! Why do people overeat.?? many reasons...from physical...emotional... etc... I know I hated myself for it...I knew I would overeat....I been doing this since I was a kid... but High School sports... then 9 yrs in the Army..and then competition in dualthlons... worked....but once I stopped... the Hunger needed to be fed....I needed a binge.... a compulsive cycle... stepping into my binge made me feel guilty about the binge... embarking and causing another binge... Addiction I think is about wanting to BE hungry.... about the need to be unsatisfied. this I think is the truth.... but for the longest time I sought to deny it... Now... I EMBRACE it.. I live it daily....every Meal...every hour... every day.. I calculate my meals...my meal times... I eat for fuel not for pleasure ( sure I make good dishes and tasty..) but not for Pleasure to satisfy my addiction.... I am a food addict....... I am like others with other addictions.. I thank God daily I dont have any other bad habits or addicitions.... but....this one...controls my life. controls my needs. I am here because I NEED support.....I fight my addicitons by watching you all fight with yours....fight and deny.. I never like to see someone say... I messed up again. I ate bad all weekend.. cuz I KNOW that feeling...and the feeling of physical sickness inside you when you do........ its time I broke that habit... this time...I fight.. 35 lbs down...I AM going to Punish this addicition...challenge myself daily to stay the course.. say the serenity prayer.. cuz I cant always change things I cant control.....BUT.. I CAN control this damnnn addicition and Denial !!! |

But doesn't it feel great to be in control? I've been binge free for 3 months now, and down 25lbs... I'm not saying it will never happen again, cause that would be a lie.. But the feeling of being in control right now, is what keeps me on track every day....Keep on challenging yourself Jarrod, you'll make it through those finishing gates!! ![]() |
