Guest guest Posted February 16, 2011 Report Share Posted February 16, 2011 Hello Everyone, I am Barbara, widowed, age 62, obese over 300, and as I have been listening to the Podcasts from , I have not eaten compulsively in the past 3 days. My intent is to find peace with myself, with food and with living life. I do want to lose weight but I can't make that the soul focus of my journey. Living life is my one top goal, living in the NOW the present of this one day to the best I can without beating up on myself. I need this support group to help me on my journey. I am learning to go " toward " my goal, and " Away from " where I was in the compulsive overeating not present unconsciously eating whatever was in front of me at any given time. I am learning to center myself, before I eat and choose foods and actions that will bring me toward my goals. , I can't thank you enough for sharing what you yourself have went through to become a naturally slender eater/person. My goal is to become a naturally slendar person, and I am claiming that already as I am learning how to be a naturally slendar person, One day at a time. For me, it boils down to becoming alive, being enlightened, being aware, I want to live life now. I have not started exercising yet, but I know that I will get there. I will do what I can today toward my goals. I want to be alive spiritually and not dead as I have lived in the past. Making choices today without guilt and being somewhat flexible so that I can live sanely with the choices I make each day is a goal for me as well. Self-correcting as I go but not beating up on myself. I shall share more later about my journey as I look foreward to reading others journeys here as well. I send my support and love to all, Barbara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
