Guest guest Posted October 4, 2007 Report Share Posted October 4, 2007 Hi All,I don't post that often, and felt that posting might help me see how much progress I have made. Guess what? I am not skinny! Time is just waltzing by and I am enjoying myself not worrying about dieting. I haven't had too many bad eating days lately. I am enjoying a wide variety of foods and finding the need to go out and encounter forbidden foods has lessened; since they aren't forbidden any more they just don't taste that good. What I have learned is that when I am tired, I EAT. When I am bored, I EAT. Both of these things have to do with being human. I let myself eat when I am tired, and try to get more rest. I figure I can't help that in that moment I am sleep deprived, since my day doesn't allow for naps. My own tiredness is due to poor planning, which is something I can control. When bored, I don't eat, I find something to do. Today, I washed some hand washables and cleaned out the freezer instead of eating. Also, since my thyroid numbers are finally getting under control, which I attribute to taking better care of myself, I am able to start planning for my future. I am in the process of finding out about finishing my degree and going to grad school. I am not losing weight, but don't really care. I bought some nice clothes, and am getting less hyper focused on negatives and more into life for me, not just for others. Ciao,Maureen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
