I was told by a medical professional that it can take up to two weeks for weight to show up, after I expressed surprise in not gaining any weight a few days after a “binge.” When I do have a binge, it always seems like I’m trying to do damage control afterwards. I have to confess how bad I’ve been to someone, anyone, and then I hit the gym hard, sort of a pre-emptive strike against the inevitable weight gain that may or may not show up in 2 weeks! It’s a vicious cycle and mentality.

I just wanted to say that I have been reading your blog for the last few weeks, and that you have been a huge inspiration for me. You should be very proud of how far you have come, and I look forward to reading about the rest of your journey.

I feel oddly hungry now. I kinda miss that Christmas chocolate binge. I’ve been picking on chocolates and stuff ever since. Mayhaps I should have got it all out of my system.

I hate that you binged. Its a shame people surround us with that stuff especially when so many of us are prone to depression. Kepp it in perspective and keep fighting.

The more I held off the more I binged. I feel your pain lol. Congrats on the weight loss. Want to send some of that luck of this way? ;-)

Confession is good for the soul – plus we get absolution, right? So that means the calories will be cancelled out in the long run. ;o)

I don’t think a 3 day blow-out is the end of the world – plus efficiency of that magnitude deserves to be applauded.

Roll on Easter…oink!

Finding mud: Come to Edinburgh and walk towards my workplace, nearly killing self by slipping on said substance.

Well, it wouldn’t have happened had I not been wearing silly girly shoes. And I didn’t actually fall on my bum.

(This is merely persiflage intended to disguise the fact that I know exactly what you’re talking about, above. C’mon, how much damage CAN a person do in just three days? Not much, right?)
