Back on Track

So it has been a week now since i've gotten back on track w/ my eating. It's been a long time since I can say I was eating mindfully and thinking about what i was putting in my body. I am just so grateful to finally be back on track. I haven't dumped or overate all week and that had become a daily occurrance. Tomorrow morning I will be heading to NJ for my grandmother's funeral. There wll probably be alot of food so wish me luck.

I did have a moment recently where I just finished eating so I know I was not hungry but I wanted to eat something not on my list of good stuff. so instead of acting on it, i acknowledged it and the feelings I had that were generating the head hunger and it slowly went away. Yippee!!!

Hope everyone has a lovely Thursday night.

Nicole that is wonderful news...

family gatherings whether happy or sad are always stressful and food filled (at least for me) I hope it goes smoothly for you.

congrats for acknowledging and dealing with your hunger.  

have a safe trip!

thank you sweetie. hopefully i'll be too busy talking to people to think about food.

i'll be back on the boards around tuesday. hopefully it will still be standing ;)

Nicole,

If you are like me when I am in control and my weight is stable everything else in my life is good.  Just take one day at a time.  Sorry to hear about your grandmother; while in NJ, stay away from the food table and try to spend time talking with family.  One week is a great acomplishment.   Pam

my life has been a bit rocky actually but i'm trying to work on dealing w/ it better instead of sacrificing myself and my health. Look forward to meeting you soon Pam.

Congrats on being back on track.  You must be proud of yourself.

proud and relieved. i've been mostly off track for a long time now. hopefully i'll keep trucking on!! Thanks :)

Hey cutie pie. I am so glad your back on track now.................losing a loved one can throw any of us off coarse but you stay strong okay. We are all here for you. (((Hugs)))

i am gonna stay strong. try to remember that the food only temporarily makes me feel better but eventually makes me feel bad. Thanks sweetie.

Nicole, I want to be like you when I grow up.

You go girl! I need to do some reflection myself. I keep depending on the pouch to kick my ass and guess what? It ain't happening!
