Impulse issues?

Has anyone been 'out of control' since their m/c? I don't mean drunk 24/7 or smoking 2 packs a day. Like, eating chocolate b/c for the first week, it was the worst case of PMS symptoms I've ever had with the hormones. And I've been shopping like crazy. Stuff that I wouldn't have bought because it's out of our budget. I have this mentality of eff it. I wanted to meet my baby and I couldn't and now I want what I want.The night before the d&c I had a new 47" tv in the cart at walmart. The only reason we didn't buy it was because the credit card machine went down.
I've been drinking pop, too. And back with the espresso. I had stopped soda and caffeine and between the two, I just haven't cared. But, I know in the long run that's not helping my weight (and future pregnancy ease). So, this week, I'm going to work on being an adult and work on impulse control, if just to get back into my regular clothes and out of the stupid materinity shirts.
Re: Impulse issues?
Yes. There was one day that I only had a piece of cheesecake and candy. And I've been drinking a ton, and eating like crap. However, after the first one, I did that for about a week, and then slowly started to get back into a routine of normal. It just takes time, and sometimes we grieve like a crazy person.
This one I've eaten like crap for about a week and half, but I'm getting back to where I want to go back to work kinda and I'm ready to cook real food again. It just takes time.

@ilengrace, you just made me LOL so much I woke up two of the cats.
I just packed my lunch/snacks for tomorrow and there was TWO green vegetables and a total of four of them in it. I don't know if my body will be able to handle the shock.
Yes
I was just telling DH that I still "feel" pregnant. I eat all the time and am now forcing myself to start dieting. I just need this HCG out of my system!

After my first loss, I convinced DH to start renovating the den. We had these awful hand me down plaid chairs, and he was resistant to replacing them. Well, after the first m/c he didn't put up a fight about it (I think he just wanted me to be happy). We ended up renovating and redecorating the entire room. I just wanted something to be different.
We were renovating the future nursery (ripping down old wood paneling) but now I think I want to turn it into the guest room instead. I can't face the idea of fixing up a nursery that may remain empty.
I am not doing a great job with my diet, and I need to do better. I think I am going to try to lose 15 lbs before we TTC again, since I'm on the high end of a healthy BMI. I'm going to make DH lose some weight too, he is def overweight.
When I was 10 weeks pregnant, I didn't have a bump to speak of yet. Now, I totally have a bump--but it's from cookies and wine.
It's like a constant reminder that I can't stop looking at and no amount of exercise seems to be able to shift it
