I can't stop eating. Like it's out of control. I'm off the wagon BIG TIME and need to get back on track. But somehow 23 points just seems IMPOSSIBLE. I know it's not. I know I used to do it.. and I did it with no problems. So what's changed? Nothing other than I've been on a cookie/chocolate bender and have basically taken fruits and veggies out of my diet. It's terrible. Cookies for dinner. Who the heck do I think I am? I mean seriously.
I need a plan. So far today while I've eaten a cookie and a few kissables, I've tracked everything. Even if I go over my points I am going to track everything. I think this is important. I just need to get back into the habit of eating something and writing it down. I'm also going to a weight watchers meeting tomorrow. I've not been in a while, and my coworker and I were discussing about how we've both gotten bad recently so we decided we'll go to the 12:15 meeting tomorrow TOGETHER. I need some accountability. I'm hoping to not be up more than 3 pounds. As long as I'm still under 175 I'll be happy. Then it's back to going DOWN not up anymore.
I'm giving myself 28 points today. Tomorrow I will give myself 25. Then Saturday I'll get back to 23. I need to ease into this, yes? I also will go to the store and stock up on some HEALTHY foods. When that's all there is to eat it's a lot easier.
I need to whip my butt into shape for tri #2!! I'd LOVE to be under 170 by then. Anywhere in the 160s would be awesome... even if it's 169.8!

Boy, do I know the feeling. I was going through this HUNGER about a month ago. It seems to have slacked off - with a large dose of veggies. But it a bear to get through.
Ditch the cookies and the kissables! Bring home the fruits and veggies; peaches and blueberries are in season now. Yum!
Eat 28 to 30 points until the hungry phase goes away. You won't GAIN on that, and you should lose a bit, but it gives you 250 to 350 more calories to use to fill up (with high volume foods, ideally--fiberful, produce, soups).
Best of luck. I'ms ure you'll be okay! It's a passing thing. You're doing great, really.
But go ahead and eat more for a few days toa week to head off something worse!
