Thanks daisy. And Alex didn't pull the thread y'all. I asked him to take it down because the good doc was threatening a law suit against the site. I didn't want my issues with him to affect the forum. Alex made it my decision though!

I feel bad for you but I did a similar thing . I ate a tiny piece of meat ( I had cooked ). I had heartburn and indigestion but most of all disappointment in myself . I realised that attitude of I can have it if I want it got me here in the first place . Over eating is an addiction we all have and you know what it's hard to stay on the wagon , but we will and we will be strong and get through it together . Hugs

Ouch. That is interesting to hear about litigation concerning the comments of one person.

Scotty,

You can do this! You made a mistake and you did the right thing - You admitted it and came for help. Today is a new day, and that means that the choices you made yesterday are history now, move on and make today the tone for how you're gonna do from now on. Are you charting on My Fitness Pal? It's a great tool and helped me endlessly at the beginning.

If you are having trouble - put up signs, pictures, that remind you of why you're doing this. Make a list of all the reasons you wanna lose weight and post it on the fridge. Print out a picture of the size your stomach is so that when you go reach for that big sandwich you remember that you're stuffing into something the size (or smaller than) a banana. You don't wanna hurt yourself over a burger.

And when you wanna eat and you know you shouldn't - come here. Answers as many posts as you can. Drink a big glass of Water while you do it. Encourage people and you'll see that your attitude will start to wear off on yourself. Those all helped me when I have had trouble. Take advantage of this time right now, it's the crucial period to make good decisions and new healthy habits.
