update - better; progress not perfection

August 28, 2001

I have lost two of the three pounds I gained (still have a total of

about 50 to lose before I even consider the concept of " set

point " ).

I am still not walking, I am wrestling with pain... and with shame

for not exercising. I want SO badly to remain abstinant. I've tried

and started over again so many times. I am praying that now I am

finally willing to go to any lengths.

I was SO sick from food on Friday. I fasted with liquids on Saturday,

started my food plan again on Sunday, am now on Day Two. Please feel

free to read this journal entry (for Monday, August 27; " Thoughts

from Saturday, update today; " link below), which says more about my

struggle with compulsive overeating than I will here (not the purpose

of this group?!). I'd be happy to private e-mail with anyone else

here who struggles with food addiction. Thanks!

peace,

trustinit
