BOO! Wong direction! WRONG DIRECTION!
That problem I talked about last week - not being able to stop eating once I start - yeah…I haven’t found a solution to that. There have been many times where I thought I won, only to wake up an hour later surrounded by empty containers of hummus, the partly-chewed remains of string cheese wrappers, what I can only hope are chocolate stains on my pants and the vague scent of bacon.
Creative hyperbole aside, I do lose control over myself. It isn’t a new problem, I have struggled with it since High School. Part of my brain will say, “Dude - you don’t need to eat that”, but the other, much more controlling part will say, “YES I DO!” And with that, I find myself walking to the fridge and gorging myself on whatever I can get my sausage-like hands on, all the while wondering, “Why the fuck am I doing this?”
Sigh.
Any ideas?
In OTHER news (I’m going to say I did this because it was my 20th Weight-Loss post, but really it’s just to make myself feel better), I have compiled the below image to show the evolution of weight-loss. It makes me happy. In order of oldest fattest to newest thinnest:
Couple of questions, though. Why do I hang around such skinny people? And why didn’t anyone stop me from wearing that hideous blue shirt?! All kidding aside, though, it is a nice reminder, no matter what minor set-backs I may encounter, how far I’ve come…and how different I look! Yay for self-congratulations!
