posterchild66's Journal, 10 April 2012

Well, back in the 220's again. After a massive pig-out Easter weekend. It was nice to have the get together's, but I was with a lot of fat people who's whole train of thought seems to be about cakes and fried food.

It put my in mind of an Alcoholic or druggie, after they quit drinking/using they cant hang around their old buddies anymore. That is the way this journey is leaving me. I cant go around people who think eating 2 lbs of banana pudding is ok, with a candy chaser. I suppose I have to learn to do that, because it is more socially acceptable than drinking and drugging, and just about everyone does it.

Yesterday I just did what I usually do. I was busy with schoolwork and computer junk and went way past lunch. So I had a large lunch of Chicken and Saute'd Veggies as I was starving. It was pretty good, i had not done the veggie thing much since the wife is gone! Lol, I need to get back to that, as I can eat more and still be below RDI. Although a change in plans has been nice the past few weeks. Wifey gets home tomorrow night, and I have missed her.

Work is going to be busy again, looks like we have a lot of visitors. We have a pretty good sized workspace, but not when you add in several visitors. And they like to sit in a manner that blocks access to/from my desk. So, it will be a stressful couple of weeks coming up between that stuff, and the work!

you're doing well, JP! i do know how you feel about your social life and eating with other people. you just can't skip all the social events just because you're on a "diet", i think you (we) have to deal with it. lucky your wife's finally coming back!

I know how you feel - it IS like being a recovered abuser. To these people, it seems totally normal to scarf down ridiculous amounts of foon. I know - I used to be one. And I can tell that there is very short distance to go there again, if I'm not careful. What usually helps me is to remember how I will feel AFTER the fact. Usually, that keeps me from slipping. Sometimes, however, it doesn't - but then it gives me a fresh memory of why I shouldn't pig out. :)

Thanks Guys, Yes, I did actually feel ill after chowing down all that food, and the next day I felt as guilty as if I had been out drinking all night the night before. In fact, I felt lousy too, like a food hangover!
