And on the 5th day...she puked.

*sigh*

Sorry guys.  I couldn't keep it up (or down as the case may be).
As soon as I ate more than 500 calories, I purged.

I have mixed feelings about it.

On the one hand I'm mad at myself.
On the other hand I am still pretty damn proud that I made it 4 days at all.

We are are expecting 20 to 30 inches of snow in the next 36 hours.
Yeah, I said 20 to 30 inches of snow!

They are calling it the 'Snowacalypse'.
Or Snowmageddeon.

So today I worked from home.
Worked out.
Decided to eat a few extra calories.
Started with a 300 cal green smoothie.
Which lead to some coffee filled with my favorite cinnamon hazelnut calorie-laden creamer.
Which lead to a half a cup of bar-b-que chex-mix.
Which lead to two more cups of bar-b-que chex mix.
Then a coke zero...

And then she puked ladies and gentlemen.
Oh yes, Mia hopped in the drivers seat and drove me straight to Purge City.

And now, I am stuck in the house for at least the next 36 hours with a husband that will sit downstairs and play video games as much as he can.  Of course, while he is down there I will sit up here with my computer living in relative isolation and try not to b/p the time away.

Ah well.  Could be worse right?
I may have lost this battle, not the damn war.

Okay.
Deep breath.

I'm off to make a pitcher of vodka, light cranberry juice, and club soda.  :-)

Let the snowacalypse begin!!

And thanks for the amazing support this week ladies.  You all keep me going.
I refuse to give up on me.
I love you guys to bits.

xoxoxox,
A

  2. But you lasted for 4 days so thats progress in itself!
    Tomorrow you can start agin and try to last 5 days... then 6, 7, 8, 9... lol then eventually it will be 5 years since you took a drive down to Purge City...
    Ha good luck hun, Thanks for all the nice comments lately too... Have a pitcher for me too.

  3. 4 days is a massive achievement! Like Jayne said, you'll be able to work up to longer purge-free streaks.

    Have fun with the snowacalypse! I think we're due for another noreaster soonish... it's been like, a week without snow. Which is not normal for Massachusetts this time of year.

    Stay lovely!

  4. I'm glad you're staying so positive! I wish I could do that, but I do have hope for myself for today, and that's the first step to recovery. We can kick Mia's ass.

    And I love vodka. I would like some of this vodka mix. I should try it sometime!

  5. Woohoo 4 days!!!! :D That's friggin' awesome, love. Awesome sauce, even. ;)

    I read this last night, actually, and commented (or rather, attempted to comment) but it didn't save and got lost and then I had to tend to the little one so that sentiment is now lost forever to cyberspace. All the same, I felt compelled to come back today and try again. :) I still wanted you to know how amazing I think you are. <3

    I made it through four days, myself, with no binges...but then failed. :( And I did it again this morning. I think I stopped myself before too much damage was done, but it's the lapse in control itself that is what gets me... I didn't purge though, and though the scale HAS gone up consistently for the past two days, I'm holding on. You're my inspiration for today. :D

    Vodka sounded so good last night that I actually went out and bought some, with you in mind. :) It's peach tea flavored, and I mixed it with some highly caloric fruit juice (I thought I grabbed the Light verson...wtf?)..It was delicious and tropical and too strong and I fell asleep very quickly after my first serving. :P

    This is entirely too long. I hope your day is going well...I'm off to finish my blog check-ups and then, hopefully, update my own. Have a great weekend, hun, and keep bein' LOVELY! <3

  6. 4 days is better than 3 days, which is better than 2 days, which is better than 1 day.

    Be proud! You have set your own personal goals and you are competing only against yourself. You can do it and you will.
