Week 2: Plus Size Bloggers Weigh In: October 18

by jen on October 17, 2010

Weigh-in is 263.8  for a loss of 2 lbs. for the week.

So I have to admit that I was quite shocked with the number of comments I received on my last post.  A week later, yes… it does seem like a ‘duh’ moment that maybe perhaps I shouldn’t have bought those pizza rolls in the first place, but that’s the struggle with food addiction.  I do agree that’s it’s not just food — for me at least, but dammit, I wish it was.

I was not ‘perfect’ this week…. and what does perfect mean?  It’s simply getting in 3 pointers days for eating on plan, drinking daily quota of water, and getting in at least 30 minutes of exercise.  The difference this week from last week is that I didn’t stress that I had something I shouldn’t have…. and I also didn’t let it blend into an excuse to blow the next meal.  By doing this, I was able to successfully get through my personal detox and I’m very happy to say that my eating is currently in control.

I’m a visual person.  For me, I picture this ‘switch’ in my head… and if I go off eating food that’s not good for me (sugar, corn syrup, high fatty food, fried food, etc) in a quantity enough to ‘flip’ the switch… that I get into the situation I’ve been trying to overcome the past 4 months.  It feels awesome to feel like I’m in control for the most part.  It feel simply wonderful.  :)

Congrats on the weight loss and on making the switch! I know how hard it is. It took me a very long time to get into the right mindset to lose weight successfully. I only just in August managed to make it there again.
