I need a lecture

You won't get one from me. Consider treating yourself with a little
compassion, and see how that feels. I know when I do that, I don't feel like
beating up on my body with a bunch of extra food. . Perhaps the anger
belongs on the spousal unit, as opposed to your own precious self?

I got ****ed at the spousal unit on Wednesday. Instead of telling him
why I was ****ed I fumed all day. Went out in the evening to buy
lottery tickets and picked up a bag of hershey easter eggs. I flushed
half down the toilet once I got to the 'sick' point, but I ate way too
many and felt like somebody had kicked me with boots all day
yesterday.

I know better. I know that stuffing myself NEVER makes me feel better.
I continue to do it. I used to blame it on the full moon. That wasn't
my excuse this time. I did nothing yesterday but lay around and moan
about how awful I felt.

Back to the gym and hopefully back to what passes for normal today.

I have found that it does no good at all to fume. I need to vent or tell the
person that I am ****ed out what is going on. Fuming bout it only leads to
eating or drinking (for some). Get it out of your system and you'll feel
better.

You did good by throwing the bag out before you consumed it totally. Pick
yourself up and get back OP.

Won't get one from me either. I used to fume and not tell my husband
what it was about either, but now if he asks I tell him. Doesn't matter
who's
around either, if I'm ****ed he finds out why! Sometimes I even let him
know that I'm ****ed at him and he hasn't even realized it yet.

Think about YOU next time and how you feel. Have a hot bubble
bath or read a good book or something besides eating. Good luck.

i agree. one moment of "falling into the abyss" doesn't kill your
success with the program. get back on that horse and ride!

You're right. I should have blasted him. I'm over it now, and I feel
better today for having told him what the problem was (is.) If I'd
done that in the first place (because he doesn't know if I don't tell
him) I wouldn't have been so hard on myself. I'm getting closer to the
point where I can recognize the danger signs before they happen. When
the crazy woman moves all her stuff outta my head I'll be able to
deal...lol

I was thinking as I flushed them down the toilet that it would serve
him right if the toilet plugged up. *snort* I'm over it now and life
is good again.

Thanks. The bubble bath would be a perfect solution. No food in the
bathroom.

"Change doesn't happen while you're sitting around."

That reminds me of the time I was so angry with my then boyfriend (who
was a religious teetotaller) that I deliberate downed a whole bottle of
cheap British sherry.

For those of you not in the know, this is *rough* fortified wine - the
worst kind of stuff normally reserved for putting in trifle, that
mysterious English dessert. It's OK with all that custard, fruit and
cream.

Anyway, I'm not a drinker. In fact, I'm anybody's after 2 glasses of
wine, so my system did not cope well with the onslaught of 70 cls of
raisin-flavoured ethanol. I was violently ill and thought I was going to
die. I never reached that mildly uninhibited, liberated sensation all
drinkers strive to attain, I just skipped it for the "beligerrant and
barfing" phase.

So by the time the annoying boyfriend returned, he wasn't so much angry
as wondering if he should call the paramedics or doctor for my alcoholic
poisoning. We sat up all night - me vomiting and him worrying and
checking my pulse (he'd read it in some First Aid brochure).

And needless to say, I had the hangover from hell the next morning.

Still, I didn't become an alcoholic after this incident and I very much
doubt a half packet of Hershey eggs, alone, is going to make a person
fat. You have to put crazy incidents like this behind you and move on,
realising that it was a very stupid thing to do and you should probably
find a better coping strategy for next time.

Next time, I dumped the boyfriend. That might not work for you so try
yoga, or singing, or going for a walk next time. Try to avoid all
"solutions" involving chocolate (or alcohol).

P.S. I've never touched sherry since, even in a trifle.
