Depressing Fat!

So you might be thinking what's up with the bathroom scale. Well, I have been out of control again with my eating. I start the week off well and then I end out going out to dinner and just kind of give up because I love sugar. I can't seem to find that little thing in my head that says 'no you really don't need it or want it.' Instead the little voice is yelling 'eat it! Eat it! EAT IT!!!!' So what's a girl to do. Ummm NOT listen to the evil voice. No, that's what a sane intelligent person would do who knows if you start eating every good thing in site whenever you want it you will gain twenty pounds that took you years to take off and now it will take you more years to take off instead of the few months it took you to put them on. Just the thought of chocolate sends me to the freezer (where I hide my chocolate from myself) or the store. The worst part about all of this is now I have gained a bunch of weight and I personally feel awful about it. I feel fat all the time and that makes me depressed so now I want to eat more-because I'm depressed about it. When I think of going clothing shopping I stop because I know I won't fit into my size. It's just so depressing!
Ok, so back to the bathroom scale. I still haven't fully found my motivation to eat properly like I know how to do, but I was thinking that it might help me to commit to you my fellow bloggers. I was thinking if I have someone to report back to that it might help me. So as of Monday (this morning) I am committing to you that I will stick to my weight watcher points every day this week through next Sunday the 23rd. We'll see how it goes (and it's going to go well! I just know it) I will recommit for another week. Thanks for letting me use you! :)

Oh, I so know what you are going through. Boy, do I know. After Charlotte was born, I found out I had high cholesterol, so I was really committed to losing the weight. And I did great. I lost 40 pounds (about 20 of it was baby weight). Even though I had another 20 to go to really be where I was supposed to be, I felt great.

Then, life got really crazy for me. My parents split up, my mom got cancer and things with Danny weren't going well. I gained 20 pounds back and was so depressed.

Now that Tommy is here and I do not plan on getting pregnant again, I am recommitting myself. One thing I realized though is that I have to get a handle on my emotional eating. I have been reading books about it and trying to work on it.
Anyway, if you want to set up some sort of email accountability system, I would love it. It would help me to report to someone....Let me know what you think.
