So, feel better now? Hating yourself is pretty wasted energy - use it to get back in the game and do what you know you need to do! Takes a lot to admit that you didn't hold up your end of the bargain - but the game isn't over and you can still get back!

Thanks for sharing. I identify with so much of your post! I hope that you can figure out a good work/workout/eating balance that will leave you with a better feeling of accomplishment in all aspects of your journey. Know that you can always vent here - sometimes it just helps to get those emotions out and then you can refocus on the positive and leave the negative behind!

Hello my friend. Here's my thoughts/plan. One thing you can do is drink plenty of water ahead of eating (you will want less to eat). Choose healthy options as best you can. Then also don't be afraid to indulge in some of the things you truly enjoy but in moderation. When it comes to exercise, at least get out and walk when you are at your parents. Don't let yourself get too discouraged, we are all going to struggle with most of this. I know I will as Tony and I are going out to a nice restaurant for Thanksgiving with great food and then the day after is my 20th high school reunion. Also, you and I can stay in touch while you're gone as well. You can do this.

I had another friend (who is on here as well) recommend the same app to me today. I just downloaded it. Thank you for the advice and the encouragement! I didn't expect anyone to even read this, let alone comment. Thank you for making me believe that we are actually part of a community on here! I really appreciate it!

Great post - thanks for sharing your story. It sounds like your head is in the right place and that speaks volumes towards being successful! This is my second DietBet and I joined it because I found the group in my first one so very, very supportive. I also use My Fitness Pal - I really like it. Good luck to you - you can do it!
