Hit rock bottom

[66babe]

Feel fat bloated sweaty ugly unfit and just bloody awful
Have been trying forever to become motivated and do better .. but I can't seem to get into the right frame of mind
I know exactly how to eat healthy
I know exactly how to move more
Just need a massive kick up theatre to get me going ...
I've hit rock bottom so just finished off 4 cookies to make me feel better 😩😩😩
If it wasn't so pathetic it would be funny

@66babe 👯‍♀️

@66babe yes that's more like it. My twins look way too skinny.

Dying to ask which part of nhs you are in .. but it's very "outing " I think it's called

@66babe midwife. Please be a midwife too.

@66babe I'm in the south east, how about you?

East Midlands

You and Tynks and all the cats and goldfish too are very welcome, but beware the crabs. (Lol, thank you FlowerArranger ]grin] ) It's only a small one bed flat so we might need to extend...
Hi Bibidy nice to meet you. I suppose I'm lucky in that I live alone (Mum lives next door though!) and don't have anyone to tempt me with cooking or goodies. I don't know if I could pass up on too much chocolate being offered. I did have a moment a while ago where I did actually pass up on something sweet (I have a mega sweet tooth too, savoury I can take or leave.) and I felt like the Elve queen in Lord of The Rings where she resists and overcomes the power of the ring.

How was yoga @73kittycat73 ?

Not too bad thank you. Back hurts a bit. I thought this week was going to be hard but it wasn't too bad at all in the end. On Wednesdays I do yoga with the same teacher as Monday, same place too, but Mondays is a regular class and Wednesdays started out as a basic instructions course. Next week the instructor said we are going to put all we have learned together, with not much instruction and just do it.

I think doing some exercise probably helps with the bad eating .. I'm really going to try going for a swim tomorrow and have a day of better eating 🤞🏻

Good luck with the swim and a healthy eating day tomorrow. Any plans for what you might eat?
I'm helping my mum sort the shed out tomorrow. She has four big trunks of Christmas decorations in there and we are going to sort them out. Which ones to keep and which ones for charity shop.

Fridge looking quite poor
Unopened mushrooms asparagus carrot and onion
Might just do an omelette? Not my favourite thing but be free easy and won't waste what I've already got ?
Quite like some SW chips .. that'll be nice actually .. omelette and chips for tea !

Sounds delsih. I have SW chips in my freezer too. Omelette sounds nice.

As nobody has done so yet I have come on to recommend the book 'why we eat - too much' by Andrew jenkinson.

He explains how the body has its own weight under control. It is aiming for a particular weight for you ('weight set point') and in the long term you can't win by fighting it, you have to convince your body to change its target.

He also shows persuasively how dieting makes you fatter over time.

So it's not your fault.

(I sound like a salesperson don't I! I'm not, I just found the book very helpful and informative).

There are also a few threads on here with people following the new way of eating he explains (NOT a diet).

I've heard of this book before but never looked into it
Think that's the plan for tomorrow night .. thank you for that
This old gal is off to bed
Here's to a good day for us all tomorrow 💐

Morning, hope it's ok to join in.. I've just read the thread and thought it was important to let you all know... there's also orange wagon wheels and they are amazing!

@ChinnyMcChinnerson how very dare you come on here and sabotage our motivation 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You will fit right in !!!! Welcome to the mad house
Still looking for someone with teeth wiring skills
Good morning all

This is great, some of your posts have really made me laugh, please can i join? This is my second day of healthy eating. Trying to stick to 1500 calories a day, reduce carbs and sugar and drink more water. I'm a sugar addict!

Welcome @Joe50
I hear it is more difficult to withdraw from sugar than it is from cocaine
I was planning a swim this morning but I'm currently sat up in bed watching GMB with coffee and a Twirl
I blame @ChinnyMcChinnerson

Don't laugh - I'm seriously addicted to jakemans throat lozenges 😳. My mouth waters when I walk down the aisle in Boots! 😂

Where is @00feckingbollocks and @Cheermonger @Twigletgirl27 and others ... hope your plans still going well
Come and give us some motivation please

Hi Joe50, hi ChinnyMcChinnerson.
Isn't pay back a bitch...I shall explain. I had a binge last night. It started yesterday afternoon, felt bad, had a blood sugar (BS) crash. Ate two squares of 70% dark mint chocolate and felt a bit better. Started to feel a bit dodgy again later on so took my BS and it was 3.2, it should be in the fives. So I had 4 pieces of mini chocolate. Came back from yoga and I'd dropped to 2.9. Again tried some chocolate. Felt a bit better. Could hear the call of the chocolate and went for it, ate loads. Found a mini ice cream and small tub of ice cream in the freezer and ate them. More chocolate.
Have been awake since 6am ish and (Warning TMI!) have been in and out the loo. Payback is a bitch.

@Joe50 😳😳😳😳
Is this the right thread for you ? Are they chocolate coated ? 🤣
Are they full of sugar .. if not maybe better to having them than hoovering up cream eggs when is Easter coming
