Guest guest Posted July 16, 2012 Report Share Posted July 16, 2012 Woo Hoo!!! ________________________________ To: insideoutweightloss Sent: Monday, July 16, 2012 3:38 AM Subject: Can I hear a HELL YEAH!? Â Today marks Day 15 of my IOWL journey. I know exactly what I'm supposed to eat, and how I'm supposed to exercise, but for the past year I've been struggling with actually achieving this. Last night, I was SO tempted to pop down to the store and grab some food for a mini binge, just some chocolate biscuits or something. The scales have barely moved this week and this is usually a trigger for me to throw my hands up and say " oh! it's hopeless, why bother, just have a cookie! " But as the decision to head to the store was building inside me, I thought of . And of the pendulum. And of self correcting. And of coping mechanisms. What I needed was a distraction. So I went and weeded the garden. And as my reward, this morning I got that movement on the scales and have broken through a weight barrier that I've been fighting with for aaages now. So thanks ! And thanks the rest of you - I love getting this group's emails in my inbox every day, even if I'm not very vocal. Charlotte Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 17, 2012 Report Share Posted July 17, 2012 That is fantastic!! I love because you self-corrected and trusted in the process, and chose feeling good over time instead of a binge, the scale moved!! Beautiful!!!
