Run over by the wagon

Posted on Oct 18, 2009 8:56 AM


I have lost 60 #'s 5 years ago. I swore I would never gain it back. I have worked out 5 days a week for 5 years. I weight train 3-4X a week and do cardio almost every day. I have injured myself twice in two years. I have a labrum tear on my shoulder which has now repaired itself. I also fell while jogging 9 months ago and fracture some ribs. It took 4 months to recover and a slow process restarting ago. I HAVE REGAINED TWENTY POUNDS!!!! I don't want them. I am still working out daily. I have cut back on my cardio. I read that people over 50 should do less cardio and more weight training. The problem is calories in and calories out.. I can get the calories out but I can't control the calories in. I get so upset about my weight gain that I binge eat after dinner.( comfort, boredum, failure). I seem to be defined by my weight. Can anyone relate? I need help at night. My mind tells me that I just negated my workout by eating 4 100 calories snacks. Why do I do this? I want to stop..

How does Oprah handle her "falling off the wagon" .? I can totally relate to her..
