So I just joined these forums. I keep on spending what little money I have on cookies and candy... I normally find high carb foods to be disgusting, I even refer to them as "cow food" because the people that eat them are pretty overweight most of the time, but I crave the junk anyways because I'm insulin resistant, and my body's stupid and likes to raise my blood sugar when it can't really tolerate it. So I just now finished eating a carton of those stupid frosted cookies and a package of Twix. (which I spent my last 6 bucks on, pathetic, eh?) I don't even wanna think about how I'll feel for the next few days, and how my skin's gonna look for awhile (Insulin resistance causes oily skin and acne when you eat high carb junk, it's really depressing.)

Hmmm... Kind of a little introductory/unsuccess story of how pathetic I can be I guess...Feel free to flame me for eating that crap, I deserve it, I hate doing it...Later...

We all have set backs. Don't beat yourself up. Just being honest and open is a step in the right direction. You have lost 15 lbs...don't forget that. Just get back on track and be patient with yourself. Good Luck!
