TaniaMarie's Journal, 08 October 2011

Good Morning all..

I didn't journal yesterday after I promised to myself I would every day.
But in my defense my mom is here visiting until Monday. Turkey day is Monday and I'm skeered. lol The only thing I have to be thankful for is that, unlike the USA, our turkey day is spread further from the other turkey day (xmas) then theirs. lol Mom is here to make sure the turkey is edible. BAHAHAHAHA See #5 down there.

I had a problem this morning when I jumped on the scale... I can't figure out why I gained 4 pounds since Monday. Was my 9.5 lb loss a fluke last week? I won't get discouraged like I did before. I have to figure out where I went wrong and reach out and admit I may need help.

I'm pretty sure 80% of it is because I don't exercise like I should and I have to figure out a way to change that. I have three girls I'm constantly running for, A house that always seems to be in complete chaos, and a business I'm trying to run. Some days I get so bad at multi tasking it's a down right sin. Aren't women supposed to be able to juggle four balls while cooking dinner and changing a diaper?

And though I thought the carbs I ate (massive amounts)wouldn't make a difference unless I went over my RDI I may have been wrong. This is where the confusion comes in. I can't figure out where I OOOPSed. But I will man up and ask for help. I don't want anyone to criticize what I ate unless you can back it up with a solution. This practice Irks me. Don't say "Don't eat this or that" without telling me "Maybe you could try this or that instead"

#1 I hate fish. Yes all fish so nix any suggestions on that
#2 I have a small intolerance to eggs. I can eat them one day and be fine and then eat them the next and get severe stomach aches. And it's only fried or boiled eggs that do this.
#3 Though I think the Banana is the sexiest fruit around I cannot get past the texture. I can eat them in anything except straight up. lol
#4 I never feel full unless I fill up on carbs. Rice, Potatoes, bread, etc. If I don't have them then I feel like I may die of starvation. lol So getting rid of too many carbs may not be the best idea. HAHA
#5 I have very limited cooking skills. I swear I burn water.. No joke.. My food is tasteless and I rely on hubby to cook around here.. lol

I KNOW I'm in the right place because there are so many on here who have had success without the fad diets. I tried all of those and failed. I spent thousands of dollars trying to find a solution to this problem but have realized that maybe the only way to "figure it out" is to not be afraid to ask for help. As I have in the past. I proved I can't do it alone so I'm asking my buddies for the help. I value their opinions.

But I do promise to always log in every single day no matter what and do something on here.. That was one of my promises I made when I came back two weeks ago.

Okay It's a long one BUT It's my journal and I'll complain if I want too.. LOL

Til later
TATA

One thing that works as far as carbs are concerned is to go "cold turkey" on them (usually 2 weeks or so) until you no longer crave them. I will warn you that when I did this I ended up with headaches and loose bowels for about a week of the 2. This might help with the "Feeling full" in #4. I hate eggs and never did do the egg thing. Life can be lived and lived smaller without the eggs..haha Take cooking classes at the local health food store - they are great to get you started cooking in the right direction. I did this for a year. Eat banana's yummy...the smaller they are the sweeter they are. Try them when you are craving carbs they work as a great filler, found they worked better when they were chilled alittle. Frozen grapes also work as a carb crave killer...hope this helps - these all worked for me
