Ice cream in the freezer: Going to see how strong I am



Recommended Posts

My company had a celabration today and catered dinner for all of us. The main coarse was a sirloin steak and two chicken breast tender loins, all grilled, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob,green Beans, slaw, a roll, a Peanut Butter cookie and a pint of ice cream. I ate only the chicken and 1/4 of the steak and tossed the rest. The extra ICE CREAM is in the freezer in our control room and I want some, but i'm in the zone and have been loosing for the last two months. Please send encouragement if you know what I'm going through to stay out of the ice cream.:blushing:

The human body is amazing at storing calories. Simply amazing, you can eat 500 calories easily in one sitting but do you know what you have to do to burn that 500 calories? ;o)

Get a photo of a person at your goal size, then get a photo of that ice cream. Which do you want more?

The ice cream will make you happy for a few minutes, thin will make you happy for a lifetime. It's all perspective.

You can do this, if you have to go dump salt all over that ice cream and then pitch it! It's just not worth it in the end.

It's hard living as an obese person, it's pretty nice living as a thin person. Hang in there, you can do this!

BACK AWAY FROM THE ICE CREAM! Put your spoon down! You can do this...it's only FAT LADEN artery clogging sugar rich goo that after you eat it you'll regret it when you wake up in the morning! And it' won't even taste that good!

Better yet ....throw it away! Nobody needs it!

I have had ice cream two times since I was banded. (3 months and 42 pounds lost) That has been the only sweet treat I have allowed myself to have. I had about 1/4 to 1/2 cup and was satisfied and I did not feel guilty. I did not fall off the wagon and start eating junk or unhealthy foods. I know in the end what my main goal is but I do not intend to live my life without a treat now and then. I do like sugar free fudge pops and popsicle, that satisifies my sweet tooth.

Thanks for all the encouragement. I just watched a co-worker eat his ice cream and it wasn't that upsetting. I think I'm going to bake some fish.

Ticker rocks and take the ice cream put it in the sink and hurry and run hot Water on it. Or give it to your co-worker.

Maybe take 2 bites then trash it ..

You did great today and that is awesome with all that great food ...

Kudos for you big time .

Tell somebody to take that stuff home. Convince them that their kids would really enjoy it. If not melt it down the sink while no one is watching and claim you have no idea what happened to it or who ate it when asked.:thumbs_up:

Well it's one in the morning and I am still going strong, no ice cream for me. As far as the ticker goes, I'm sure I went the wrong way about it. I went to ticker factory dot com and picked one out. copied it to that first post then copied it to my signature under user CP. I'm sure their is an easier way. I'm just behind on how to use a computer.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
