 |  I HAVE TO find a hobby!!!
Okay, I am goin' to just come clean!  For about a week now, I have been addicted to the TV, I will just sit and watch anything, and of course I have been snacking while I do this. BAD BAD BAD no moving (except to reach for the clicker) and bad eating habit. I have decided to go cold turkey, I will only watch Big Medicine on Wednesday Nites, nothing more! I decided I had a problem last nite, I watched The Red Hot Chili Peppers, and The Foo Fighters in concert on some channel last nite and I danced around the living room to the music  (pretending I was really there) BUT, I had a Skinny Cow Ice Cream Sandwich while I did and THIS WAS DINNER!!!  I am so ashamed and scared that I picked this old habit up so easily. I need a hobby, any suggestions????  |

ummm,thats not good!!!!i've messed up a couple of times.,it is very scary to think we could backslide so fast and easy, you have to remember its only a tool.we gone thru to much to waste this chance we've been given.we have to remember we have a long way to go!!!!!if all those others can make it so can you.maybe a sta. bike in the living room,or learning a new hobby.if all else fails find some one on this site.we can do it......good luck and hang in there you are doing great.

As for the hobbie honey I have no idea. Now about what you have been doing. GOOD FOR YOU FOR REALIZING IT!. There is no way anyone could fuss at ya for this because you realized what your doing. Its fall its gettin cold outside. The time changed. Nothing much to do acutally........ well outside anyways. We are like bears and want to hibernate this time of year. Im sure you will get alot of great ideas as far as hobbys go from others.........but dont beat yourself up.

Ok I Dont Know What To Tell You With Hobbies Because I Dont Know What Your Into But Instead Of Tv Try To Find Things Around The House To Do Whether Its Handy Things Or Just Cleaning Projects, Take A Walk, Or Work Out While Watching Tv And Stay Away From The Bad Snacks! Remember Why You Did This And Eat A Protein For A Snack. Dont Beat Yourself Up Just Forget About What You Did Yesterday And Today And Change Tomorrow  . JUST REMEMBER TO TRY AND MOVE AROUND. I CANT WORK OUT RIGHT NOW AND IT UPSETS ME SO MUCH LIKE IM GOING TO FAIL SO I TRY TO ANYTHING TO MAKE ME MOVE. I CLEAN UP MY DAUGHTERS TOYS 10X A DAY INSTEAD ON 1X OR I VACUM EVEN IF ITS CLEAN I VACUM ANY WAY ETC. ITS NOT MUCH BUT AT LEAST IM MOVING TILL I CAN GET BACK TO THE GYM AGAIN.

I have started sewing again and got out the embroidery arm of my machine to try and learn to use it - I also take a ceramics thing once a week along with swimming so I get out and don't hermatize. My sister and I go out at least once a week but eating out isn't all that much fun anymore but we do share lunch and go to the mall just to walk. I don't know your interests but even reading is a hobby - I am almost finished with the last Harry Potter lol.

yes it id bad, but the good part is you recognise it and are remorseful (sp?) YOU KNOW ITS WORNG!!!  thats half the battle. i have to give you kudos for that! now, as for hobbies, something to kewp your hands busy.....needlepoint?? paint by number, arts and crafts are you into those things at all?? for the time being until you find something you are into, go for a walk. outside. not sure what the weather is like where you are, but if you can, go outside and get some fresh air. it does wonders for the mind, body, and soul.

I know what you mean about being bord. I still go threw somewhat depression at times and I need to find something to do other then sitting in front of the tv. I still havetn gone back to work yet due to that I cant lift 100Ibs over my head yet..lol. So I ran across a friend that runs Santa Land and the Train at the Mall. I started working there last week durning the day. I LOVE IT!!! I get to see Santa and all the kids and the most awarding thing is seeing the KIDS smile. I do get to work earlier enough to watch all the MALL WALKERS. So now I join them. I have to say I do feel better about myself now since I'm not as bord as I was. I never ever thought I would be going to the mall to join all those MALL WALKERS.

THis is why I love the city.....people are outside all hours and the stores are open late and there is so much to do. When i lived in my house on Long Island i would go totally nuts. Just wasnt enough to do. THats why i am such a city girl. I need the hustle and bustle of a big city to survive. I have also started my yoga which keeps me even more busy and soon the holiday shopping and that stuff starts. Have to try to keep moving as much as possible. But you really should find an interest and keep yourself moving. TV gets so dangerous because I am so used to eating while watching.. a really bad habbit...
Hang in there...

Last nite I begged Jeremy and Michael not to watch TV after dinner, they know I am having this cold turkey thing. So Jeremy got his playstation2 out and put his Dance Dance Revolution game in, hooked up two dance pads and we all danced! We had so much fun, I forgot how much fun that game is, and it has some great music on it too! If the neighbors saw in the window last nite, I am sure they thought we had lost our minds, Michael and I dancing in our PJ's!

Get back to the basics girl!!! Go back to the protein shakes and walking every day. Back to liquids for a couple says then to soft foods for a couple days. Get back in charge of yourself and your program, what ever it was.
That's what I do when I start feeling out of control. I'm 20 months out from my big day. 106 lbs reached my goal, but I struggle every day to stay there. Never give up. Never give in. Never stop trying!! You can do it!!
