Actually- when I eat the above foods I'm just fine! I have a few peanuts everyday. Its when I eat other foods is when I get sick...or if I put Anything in my tummy before riding in a car.

Same here you are used to eating clean and put crap in your body it will reject it. GINGER ROOT should cure that nausiousness in stomach from driving

Stacey

See thats what I was thinking also!! I just can't figure out Why I can't get into a car after eating--Its even worse if I'm the Passenger!!! omg! My Grandmother is the same way though--she gets Very car sick (tummy hurts) when shes the passenger! (all her life) Wierd huh?!

I Believe in the Impossible!!!

Hmmmnnn... I never knew that about Ginger Root! Thanks for the info HAN! I just thought it was great flavoring for Chinese food ala wok style! But I love Ginger and Chicken and I can't do without it and maybe this explains the lack of stomach sickeness when travelling.

Hey GBC!!

Sounds like you had a GREAT time!!! You're too funny with your concerns of what you eat. With your activities and age, you can get away with it!!! (God, I wish I was your age! How can I turn back time??) So don't fret and keep up your active lifestyle so added bad poundage won't stand in your way. But on the other hand, if HAN says otherwise.............

PS. If you knew what I ate at 4 am when I'm with the band, my trainer would FIRE me! maybe that's why I'm in the gym so much!!! Ridding that bad elements!

My body hates greasy foods. Nothing worse than tasting dinner 4 hours after you eat it.

One suggestion GB is before you put the candy in your mouth, drink a HUUUGE glass of water. I mean a huge glass of water. I have found that large amounts of water in a quick shot, tends to fight off those cravings pretty damn well. You have nothing to loose, give it a try. Remember I said HUGE glass of water. If you don't have an oversized glass then drink 2 normal sized glasses of water quickly. don't be sipping it,, down them both.

Thats a great idea FS. I used to do that when I lost all of my weight. Kills the craving.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Sapphire

Don't be so hard on yourself!! We all cheat sometimes! Just shake it off and start all over again!

The water idea is a good one... fills up your tummy.

Hang in there sweetie!! I think we all get like that sometimes. One piece of candy for me leads to a box of candy!! You had more restraint than I could have!! Just get back on track and you'll be fine.

Thanks for the support fire rock sapphire han and ncgirl
u guys make me feel better

UGH! I did bad again today:
The days not over but I think im going to start updating this earlier in the day so i dont have to think too hard to remember breakfast then edit later lol:

So far today:

No workout, spent day with friend who is leaving for school instead

1.5scoop protein, 1/2pkg sf ff pudding, 1tbsp pb, pinch coconut
cinnamin splenda butter buds (weird but yummy pudding)

leftover chicken salad w honey mustard

another coconut toffee square thingie, a pecan thing and a choc cookie, and a few handfuls of cereal

2 chocolates, an herbal tea w already added sugar

a lot of pineapple, a pear, canned peaches, toasted coconut, a bit choc pudding and salad with rasberry vinagrette
(we called it the gourmet tropical salad lol)
a few spoons of friends ice cream mmmmm

Damn today i basically said fuck it..im tired of this dieting/binging cycle, i look horrible and bloated and fat, my diet is so messed up
However I will try the water thing (hope I remember to)
These past three days really suck, I might as well just inject fat onto my hips and stomach lipojection LOL
I have a serious sweet tooth, and I think I need to follow J'bos suggestion to completely cut it out to kill the cravings.. Cuz moderation doesnt seem to work, nor does substituting with diet soda I think that probably makes me crave more
I hate having to figure myself all out, wish I could just hook up to a machine and know EXACTLY what would work best for me
but alas i gotta do this long drawn out process, I know no carbs leans me out nice, but my body hates it and Im so tired, we'll see... ok will update again later

I can do it

I WILL be a size 5.

david

Well, the last time I did this, it took a shock value within my life to snap me out of it of my cravings for certainties. Based on what I've read and re-read... (yes I do do that to feel what you feel in the sense of frustrations) and I know, within time, you will be back on track. Really, what you might want to try is stand, turn around and walk away from the cravings completely and go through a body clense. Is your water intake enough? Maybe you should increase it especially 10 mins before you eat? What I do, believe it or not, because I used to love breads and French fries, I would chew on them and then just spit it out. I know, it sounds gross but it appears that I'm eating it but the guilt is on my mind. This won't work for chocolate though so don't try it! Also, I even carry my trainer's card around (she has a gorgeous picture of herself on it and it reminds me of her hard nose toughness and attitude while diplaying beauty. Confusing but VERY cool. ) and I'll pull it out whenever I get that craving because the goals set at hand by her, I have to achieve it!!! It's what I paid her for! That's another thing. I think about the investment that I pay monthly and to spoil it like that is just wasting my time and money. That right there is a HUGE motivating factor. Money that I don't really have but invest in my health and future and time that I need to be in a studio but rather in the gym with her and in my own gym.

Don't stress too hard GBC, just re-evaluate and take a deep breath and continue on.

Rest of 1/5

Fish and salad

1 scoop protein

I can do it

I WILL be a size 5.

Thanks for seconding my post my friend. So you can relate and validate this works. Outstanding. Hope she sees this.

firestorm

guys and gals the water idea is NOT only about filling the stomach. I can bet she and many like her including myself don't grab that cookie or candy or whatever bad thing it is just because we're hungy. It is because it's there for one thing and secondly a craving. Every blue moon I get this incredible craving for Soda. don't ask me why but I do. So I go the fridge, see the soda pop BUT grab the pitcher of water instead, down a huge glass and I no longer have the craving for the pop.
So my point is this. Yes if fills you but MOST importantly,,, IT KILLS CRAVINGS. Has something to do with the taste buds. Basically cools them down and stops the slobbering you were just doing over that chocolate KISS. hahahahaha

Sapphire

Don't give up Sweetie. We ALL have days where we feel fat and yucky!!! BELIEVE ME!!!! That's OK, just try harder tommorow! I am starving today, I can't seem to get in enough food. I will eat more than normal today and hopefully tommorow I will be good again. I think I may be getting my period... I am sure you know how that is!!!

I am CRAVING CARBS!!!! YUMMY!!!
