We can do this! Back on track!

Hey Signer,

Its tough to put things into words sometimes. I had to work pretty hard to understand what I needed to do and still working on it. A lot of self awareness work to figure out at least partially why I act the way I do and what triggers my weight gain. Here is a partial list of what I think helped:

Accepting my responsibility in managing my weight
Discovering in part why I overeat, tirggers and trigger food
Clearing away the BS to discover what my nutrition plan should be
Using the pouch as a tool
Increasing my activity through exercise and recreation
Goal Setting

The list is a bit short and does not fully describe everything I have been thinking or doing. Probably the most important was getting past the calorie myth. That calories dont matter if you get the protein in. Some choose to interpret this literally. Instead understanding that if you follow protein first you can satisfy your physical needs. If I follow the plan it helps minimize the emotional need to keep filling up the hole with food, which in turn makes calories irrevelant. Might not be making a lot of sense lol. I'd be happy discuss further with you. Do you suggest on this post or possibly should I open another?
