fell off from stress+college worries

Today I fell off. I was just so upset with..getting ready to go to college. With everything.
I feel like i've been doing this all wrong. Its half been my own fault. I know it'll be easier when im in college because I'll just be like..you can have this,this,and this,but not this. I had a brownie. I didn't eat breakfast. I deliberately sabotaged myself.
And with all my friends leaving and me crying, I went to the comfort food.

If I keep doing that,how can I succeed on this?

All I want to do is cry in my comforter and not go to college,but I know I have to go.

I'm keeping up with my exercise,but its slow paced,due to the getting ready for college and all.

And the fact that no one in my house supports my diet makes this..oh,so much harder.

Packing up and going away to college is very stressful in itself. Just do the best you can with dieting. Make good choices when you can and if you give in to temptation, don't beat yourself up.


Look at being on your own as a fresh start and the ability to make choices without others' opinions.


Get thru the first few weeks of college feeling good. Make friends. Get involved. Have fun. Then come back to us and focus on losing weight. We'll help you figure out a plan after you've gotten a better feel for what is available at the dining hall, the local stores, etc.


Chin up, girlie!!!!

Thanks Karen (Hugs) I needed that. I'm going to take your suggestion.

After all, I do leave on Saturday.
