Woke up this morning feeling really discouraged. Yesterday I used about 7.5 of my extra weekly points already. I don't know WHY this still feels like I'm cheating!! Perhaps it's because I've always saved weekly extras for the weekend and now I feel like I have less "fun" points for the weekend. Seems my mind keeps wanting to slip into "diet" thinking. I was at a place of accepting that this is a life style change, but recently, diet mentality keeps sneaking in. I guess a recovering alcoholic slips into addict mindsets too. But the way to "stay clean" is to renew my mind every day. So this morning, I am reminding myself that I am not going to live as a food addict any more! I am going to say "no" to emotional eating. I am going to be conscious of what is a craving and what is real hunger.
Sure wish it was easier. Ah well, easy or difficult, I am sticking with my choice to change my life!

LOVE YOU!! Keep walking; the victory is little by little and glory to glory! <3
ReplyDeleteI agree about changing your mind set. Mental hunger is way more tough to deal with than physical hunger.

I think if we were all as honest as you, everyone would have to admit to emotional crutches that need to be shed. The only difference is what our crutch looks like. I'm so proud of you for being real. The future is bright for you, my dear friend!
