I'm no longer obsessive about my weight and food, so I've turned to exercise...I guess there are worse things. I'm making sure to do something every day. In my head, I've committed to 30 minutes a day of strenuous exercise, but it's turning out to be more like 60 or more. It feels pretty good!
I still wake up in the morning thinking about getting on the scale, hesitate to drink too much water early in the morning hours before weighing, think about all the little mind tricks I played to get the scale to show me what I wanted. Old habits die hard! Now I only have the truth to tell me how I'm doing...how do my jeans fit today?
I just read this from Bella, who gave credit to someone else (Ruth?)...but I really love it:
When I'm hungry, I eat what I love. When I'm bored, I do something I love. When I'm lonely, I connect with someone I love. When I feel sad, I remember that I am loved.
