Abstinence - Day 61

Why do I count how many days of abstinence I have?  Because there are requirements if you are asked to do a lead (life story) of six months of abstinence.  I hope by the time I reach that stage, I'll have lost enough weight and worked enough program and grown enough as a person in OA that I'll be able to give a good lead to those listening. Breakfast 1 banana 1 large whole wheat bagel with crunchy peanut butter 1 cup 1% milk 1 mug hazelnut coffee 2 cups water Lunch Salisbury steak (small) Rice Cooked pear Lima beans 2 whole wheat pita pockets 2 cups water Dinner Eat a belated Easter dinner out at Bob Evans Restaurant using two $15.00 gift certificates we got at Christmas Evening Snack Choclate candy at movies 3 cups theatre popcorn 2 cups water Denise Phares

Hiya Denise,      I'm sure you'll have a good "life story" by then.  :-)      All day today I've been fighting cravings, head hunger, and a drive to binge.  I'm only 1/2 a pound from a normal BMI, so I think that's part of it (my usual self-sabotage peeking through). 6:00 am - South Beach protein bar 8:30 am - Zone Perfect protein bar 11:00 am - South Beach turkey/bacon wraps 1:30 pm - box of SF/FF butterscotch pudding 4:00 pm - beef & bean burrito 6:30 pm - will either be another burrito or a Schwan's diet chicken pizza      I haven't even treadmilled today (which is very unusual for me), so I'm going to try to do that this evening.  Hopefully tomorrow will be a more stable day.
