All I want for Christmas is abs that would make a cover model envious.
How The Hell Did This Happen?
Published on December 22, 2003 By Frog Attack In Misc
Well. It's been over three weeks since I started this blog and I've GAINED fat. I'm up to 16.5% now. Holy cow. I only have one big bad problem and that is eating at night after dinner. Those cravings. Where the hell did they come from? I have never ever had this problem before. Now all of a sudden it is? Nothing I have tried has worked. But I am still determined to get my abs. If it takes three months so be it. This sucks big time. At the beginning of November I was SO CLOSE. Man. oh well. Gotta let that go. get it out of my mind and take this one day at a time.

You know, it's hard enough for me to forget about the bread and the cereal lurking, but my WIFE keeps buying doughnuts and reese's cups. Thanks so much for your support, hon.

But I have no one to blame really but myself, I know that. It's all up to me. I could lose weight on ANY diet plan if I would just stop eating at night. I will I will I will. man this is frustrating. No wonder people who get really big say they have such a hard time.

Hmmm. I can do this. I know I can. I will.

Are you sure you're eating *enough* during the day? Maybe if you eat a little more during the day, then you won't be craving at night. My only advice is to keep trying, you'll do it sooner or later. I kept on going and going, but didn't seem to get very far. Then over the last 2 years I lost 4.5 stone (dunno what that is in lbs tho), and somehow it's a lot easier now. Still haven't *quite* got abs myself tho, that's next year's goal!

In the Arcane we call all things that have power over us demons because they have stripped our will away from us. The only way to regain your will is through diligence and keen observation.

I use too eat and didn't even realize I was eating. Then I would feel bad and say @#$# it ~chuckles~ Today as you said "One Day At A Time" if I fail during the day, I throw that much more energy into observation and diligence. You can do it!

Scientifically bad habits create very strong neuro-chemical pathways. These pathways work on the automatic reflexes and are usually genes or social deviances that are turned on at full force but in such a subliminal way that they catch us off guard. Once caught off guard having shoved some yummy donuts or ice cream down our throats the neuro pathways of guilt and hopelessness take over. These are the demons (or whatever you want to call them) that must be named, observed and then diligently guarded against.
