Guest guest Posted January 2, 2001 Report Share Posted January 2, 2001 Hey Pete, I'm on my new health path too. Mostly for the mood help but also because I'm negatively effected every time I look into the mirror and see my square shape. Since I have a bad relationship with food and lousy nutrition I've bought " Greens " which has dehydrated everything good. Sea algea, lots of vegs, fruits all in it. A tablespoon a day in juice. Also Gingo Bilibo, vits, whole grains, juices, more water, more water. Tea, green. I miss the full stomach feeling more than the food. I also look for candy (or as they say in day care " candy, candy, CANDY! " and can get this with the energy bars. Just figuer them in with your calories. If it weren't for getting whoozy from energy dips I'd diet easily. See the " Do No Harm " site for a paradym shift in attitude toward diet and exercise. Maybe we can do that together? Enjoy that site. Very comforting.

This is Day 1. Since I bea it last time the OA way - no sugary food, 3 meals a day no eating inbetween, I reckon I might as well use the same method. Went to an OA meeting too. More of that later. I'm not doing too badly but not perfect. No chocolate or anything sugary. Went without potato chips and didnt let myself eat between meals - and now I'm dead hungry. I guess as it's 9:30 I should have dinner but its my habit to hang on until late - I better change that. I've got a diet coke to fill me up. I thought of getting a sugary drink and then remembered: " I dont do this anymore " . I questioned the " no sugar " rule for a moment and then remembered: " These days I'm diabetic. Cant have sugar anyway. " so that was the end of that. My feet have ached and tingled, probably through diabetes, for a few years now. These days it's starting in my fingers. It could be just my medication as a side-effect, but I'm worried. I have to beat the weight before the diabetes beats me - it's that simple. I guess this isnt an eating disorder support group so I shouldnt be posting too much about this from now on - but believe me, withdrawing off food binging gives you cravings like hell. It could be a few weeks before it stops. I certainly guess it wouldnt be a good idea to post about using OA to help beat this thing either, though as I've said before London OA isnt anything like as bad as the many horrors that Ive heard about XA elsewhere. Anyway, Pete is now going to save his ass for the second time, and this time I intend to keep it safe and normal size.
