And today is better.

My daughter, Amy, and I are feeling the effects of eating on plan. We put down the food, and our emotions are right on the surface. I am glad we are working a program of recovery that deals with the physical, emotional and spiritual. I am also so grateful we have each other. I don't know how people do this alone. I had a moment of sanity this morning as I once again stepped on the scale. I thought, What am I doing? Am I going to change the way I eat based on the number I see? Do I really want to play that game? Nope. I do not. I like eating the way I am eating right now. My body will weigh what it wants to weight. I don't care. I have a sponsee who taught me that when you weigh and measure your food, you do not have to weigh and measure yourself. Today I am eating nutritious food to nourish and fuel my body. I am NOT eating to punish myself, or reward myself, or cover up emotions or fix, change or control anything. Go me! Just for today. Thanks for being part of the journey!

Blessings, Jill
