Confessions of a Sugar Addict

Yes, the following story is true and sad, and shows you just how badly I am addicted. No Judgment please :)

So I was really Jonesin for some sugar the other day. I don't really keep any in the house because I will eat it all. I cannot restrain myself. So with little options I reached into the depths of my pantry and retrieved a container of frosting. MMMM is was so good! I did limit myself to several spoonfuls and then I put it away. Then another day comes and again I need sugar. So more spoonfuls are shoveled in. Then not a few hours later more and more...I couldn't help myself. So in an effort to stop myself I threw it in the trash. But, I could still taste the yummy cream cheese flavor in my mouth and I yearned for more. What a dilemma. What to do. Yes folks I dug it out of the trash! Yuck, and least it was on top right?

So disgusted with my addiction and not wanting to have this same issue, I then filled the container with water and threw it away again. I needed it to be completely inedible.

So alas, I am a garbage diver. I know, an addict can go to many lengths. That's why my weight has plateaued again...

Maybe I need to got to SAA (Sugar addicts anonymous). Help!

Well, I do need to keep at this. I need some sort of accountability or I will eat ten doughnuts a day and balloon to a size where not even the ocean can hold me.

This week however has been bad. I have had an overwhelming desire to eat chocolate every second of the day. So bad that I even had a bag of chocolate chips I was pouring into my mouth.

As for the weigh in. I weighed 151.4 this morning. I am pretty sure that is a gain from last week. Dang breaking that 150 lbs barrier alludes me again.

I need to be better. Here is hoping for next week.

WIW...Belly

All right Lace lets keep at it...

Starting weight: 160 lbs
Weight today: 150.2 lbs
Weight loss this week: around 1.2 can't remember last week...
Total weight loss: 9.8 lbs

Not trying really hard at this point. I still watch what I eat but I also eat what I want. Portion control mainly.

I ran after a week and a half off ( to rest my IT bands) 3 miles but at a quicker pace. I did 3 miles in 30 min which I normally do closer to an 11 min mile. I am feel REALLY tight this morning. It is becoming more of a reality that I may not be able to run this race. I will do what I can...it is just disappointing knowing I am physically in shape to do it, but my injury is holding me back...whine whine.

Tired!

Yes I am tired ...my new schedule is kinda crazy and I work 10 days in a row and with my commute I am pushing 12 hour days which leaves little time to get everything in (yes I know I don't have kiddoes but I do take care of David) and not be dog tired...I just don't want it to sound like an excuse...I haven't given up I just have to figure out what I can do to fit it into my new life. Once I do I fully intend to get back down to where I want to be. I am so proud of the girls for sticking to it and meeting there goals..if anything I hope that I jump started this whole thing :o) .I am sooo jealous! They both look fabulous and I hope that I get there sooner than later...there are many reasons I need too and I hope I can figure it all out. I guess there really is no need to continue our blog at this point ladies but lets continue to talk about it and motivate each other any way we can. Love you girls!
