If you remember that you had pizza, in February no less, I would say
that you haven't come to terms with this WOE, and a normal relationship with food. You'll get there in time. :-) -- Cheri Cubit wrote in message . .. As I recall, I did have some pizza, back in February. I learned from my mistake. |

It sounds to me like you're well on your way to long lasting success. I
wish you the best in your weight loss journey. :-) -- Cheri carla wrote in message ... As a person who has been a no-holds-barred, if-it-tastes-good-keep-eating-it face-stuffer her entire life, I consider this a massive success.

It's terrible to think that you've been this stupid you're whole life.
Especially at your age. -- Most people are dumb as bricks; some people are dumber than that. -- MFW "Cheri" wrote in message ... In your case, the food obviously keeps you full of ****. Sit down and take a hard one, you'll feel better. :-) -- Cheri JC Der Koenig wrote in message ... It's only food that made you fat, and it's only food that keeps you that way. -- Most people are dumb as bricks; some people are dumber than that. -- MFW |

Yup. Food made me fat, so I'm going to start eating something else
instead. Not sure what yet. Maybe compact discs, or blankets.

Wasn't it Nina who used to say " people, it's only food?" Knowing that you can go out for a special dinner once in awhile, without it changing your whole life or ruining your eating plan is what I call LC success. YMMV -- Cheri Cubit wrote: Maybe, instead of pointing out the adverse effect your falling off the wagon (jumping) might have on others, I should have simply chastized you for it.

My first flaw is thinking that I only have 3 flaws. |

There have been many posts about eating excessive carbs, where the poster seems to be bragging about the carby thing they are going to eat. It usually comes with a collection of rationalizations about why the carbs are ok on this occasion. Often the occasion is in some way "special." To really succeed at this LC thing, we need to adjust to the LC way-of-life. At the time of my comment, I was really thinking about the effect these posts have on others, but as a mechanism of self delusion, they might be unwise for the posters as well. I did not mean to suggest that you should not share about your approach to managing low carb. Maybe, instead of pointing out the adverse effect your falling off the wagon (jumping) might have on others, I should have simply chastized you for it. Hmmm. I don't like a punative approach. Indeed, with that in mind, I should have pointed out how wonderful your health and appearance will be if you can stick to things. I recently attended a birthday gathering where only two of us ate nothing, while the group, about 30, had full carb ice cream and cake. Everybody seemed to accept this. I was surprised. I thought I would catch some flack for not eating it. Apparently, here in the Silicon Valley, low carb is respected, even by those who do not participate. January's surge in the press may have had an impression. Low Carb fails, when dieters return to eating the carbs. Viewing carby meals as special treats is setting the stage for future failure. We should, like Iggy, actively search for the path to lifelong success. I don't believe that low carb is going to fail if you have special dinners. I think the opposite happens -- if you restrict yourself too much, then you fail. I will continue to have treats for special occasions. -- Bob in CT Remove ".x" to reply |

Moderation in all things is my long term goal. -- carla As a person who also was in this club, I would agree! It sounds like you had a wonderful meal! It also sounds like that your tastes have changed, I mean you mentioned the one appetizer being "too sweet". I know I have found myself eating something and noting it to be "too sweet". Those words coming out of my mouth? Whoda thunk? -- Lisa 208/179.5/145-150 Low-carb since June 2004 |
