New and wondering...

[Guest guest]

IE sounds and feels like what I've been needing for, oh, about 35 years or so.

After an easy first week that felt so good, I made the huge error of weighing

myself. I immediately slipped back to the other world which I had been so happy

to leave.

Please tell me this is part of this journey, that it's a matter of living on a

day to day basis, and this is a common misstep.

I suppose I could say that going back to the other world reminded me how glad I

am to know there's this alternative IE world.

Any encouragement is invited and welcome.

Thanks,

Welcome Constance. I think that if you go to the group site and read back

through the last week's worth of posts, you will find LOTS of good input for you

to ponder and choose suggestions from.

Weighing is a big issue for most of us, especially at first. It can be a real

'catch-22' with pretty much only negative results which is why it is not

recommended.

One of the most difficult things at the very beginning of this process is

1) being gentle with yourself

2) gifting yourself TIME for this process to work for you.

BEST to you and looking forward to more posts from you. Whines, rants and

bragging about the smallest of achievements are all welcomed here
