Food Fail?

[janellenicholeful]

Go sledding! Build a snowman! Go for a long wintry refreshing walk! I'm talking to myself as much as you btw, I live in Western NC and we got boatloads here too. Have fun with the snow, it's such a rare treat around these parts.  I have been enjoying cream of wheat lately, it really hits the spot on a cold snowy day. I add splenda brown sugar, yum! I think the new year and post holiday awareness will help us all awaken from our hibernations. For now, enjoy the peacefulness the snow brings

Thanks, janelle. I've been craving a lot of oatmeal too. Those warm, sticky, filling foods have been on the top of my list. I'm just not craving fresh fruits like I was before.

Your words are very reassuring. :)

I've been having similar issues. I just keep craving comfort foods and warm foods. I havent felt full all week, Im afraid I too am going to gain this week.

Hopefully when the Holidays are over this will all get easier!

[theallnaturalme]

That's exactly what I'm thinking!

[swedo23]

Amateurs! i have that much of snow too and nobody thinks it's gonna be a white Xmas, a few inches is nothing. I also have -4 fahrenheit.. ;)

[theallnaturalme]

Wow, -4? UGH.

[swedo23]

yeah kinda cold, huh?

Better now though=)

[genuinelysarcastic]

we cant let snow be an excuse. think of it this way...if you bundle yourself up and go for a walk you're going to be burning SO many extra calories with all the layers you'll have on...i have to say that i am reveling in the irony that is that walmart shelf. and you know what...turn on the heat and blast some music and dance....you'll get that heart rate up...have you tried chili?

[theallnaturalme]

I need to get some snow shoes!

Chili is amazing. :D

I love the way you said "Maybe admitting it....will help me....somehow" - a classic weight loss community youtube moment I feel!! So funny!!!!!!! You should watch back on it!! Man...I have realised, you know...its CHRISTMAS!! A special time, we can eat a few yummy things!! But....lets not go over board!! I am feeling exactly the same, lazy, in need of all sorts of foods.....we gotta keep it on track! Even if just a little!! Come on come on keep going!!

[theallnaturalme]

Thanks, Mags. :)

I love how PandasTT told me like 2 weeks ago how you Virginia peeps never get snow.. and then BAM ya'll get dumped on! lol

[theallnaturalme]

haha Yeah, that's how it goes here I think!

[msixpackabs]

here's a freakin' trick....stop admitting it...just get over it and keep it in your mind just for accountability....

[theallnaturalme]

That's one way to do it, but you know, you could say that to the whole WLC and they would disappear, right?

[erikka1212]

oh man i know how you feel! This is the first year I've spent in CO in 4 years and the cold makes me want to eat and sleep all day!

[theallnaturalme]

I love CO but I really, really, really don't like cold weather. lol

[socalgrrrl05]

Admitting it always helps me. Makes me face the light! A very "holiday week" I love it!

[theallnaturalme]

<3!

[freshfoodiefitness]

i know EXACTLY how you feel. hang in there! i had 4 days like that and then when i got snowed in, i was really careful what i ate and i kicked my workouts into high gear. sleeping extra helped too i'm sure. :)

[theallnaturalme]

Sleeping has definitely been had lately. :)
