VSG thoughts for May 7

first of all Kairk, like momsy has already stated, you are such a good writer of what is in my head but not able to articulate.  This is excellent and has given me  a huge amount to think about.

i agree.  My old behaviours do not work.  I struggle with the all or nothing approach. 

The scale today is the same.  

Today is fraught with dealing with officialdom and am not very good with this stuff.  Especially in one office where the people seem to employ scathing remarks when accepting applications.  

Off for the walk and will be doing a set of stairs that seem to reach to the sky.

Good morning!  Today's weight was down by .9.  Trying to stay in the moment with this, as I know the scale flucuates, but this is the lowest I've been since before I started re-gaining, so I feel encouraged.  I agree Apple, my old patterns of behavior never worked, so I am trying to establish new behaviors that work better, without the all or nothing approach.

I am not a religious person, but I do believe in a Higher Power and, as I said in a post earlier this week, I've turned over my fears about our company's future, and what I should do, to my Higher Power.  Since doing so, a couple of things have happened - a slight possibility of another position, and today, the real possibility of several more referrals to my program that could certainly help with the company's financial issues.  Since turning all of this over, I have felt much more peaceful, but still realistic.  The really good news is that, except for that one brief dive into emotional eating, is that I have been at peace with the food of late!

Have a wonderful day!

Hope that is all works out for you.   And great news about peaceful food issues.

Hi all, some great thoughts here today. wish i had something profound. ate a bunch of corn chips last night at a meeting. wish people wouldn't bring that stuff. oh well. 123. gotta be watchful.

Had my annual physical the other day and got the annual lecture about exercise. maybe i will actually do something.   diane

Exercise!  Always a topic for discussion with medical types.
