Guest guest Posted November 9, 2008 Report Share Posted November 9, 2008 gail again.... was driving back from taking darling grandkids home and was a little hungry. My wild child wanted sun chips for lunch. So I let her have them. She wanted an apple too. So we ate sun chips and apple while driving home. I focused on chewing and enjoying and stopping before I was too full. I'm also working on wasting food so when I felt full I stopped and threw the last third of the bag away. Boy this journey is hard and scary sometimes.........I'm really fighting not feeling like a bad person that just did something wrong. I know I can't go back to diet land and not because I don't want too but because I tried and it doesn't work anymore. It's like I know too much to go back but not enough yet for the forward journey to always be comfortable. Feeling like shite right now is not going to help me honor not eating again until I feel hungry, though. I need to flood myself with love. Think I will do a little tapping. Even though I'm scared to death of trusting myself.....I still love and accept myself completely Even though I'm scared to death of trusting myself.....I still love and accept myself completely Even though I'm scared to death of trusting myself.....I still love and accept myself completely Even though I'm scared to death of trusting myself.....I still love and accept myself completely Even though I'm scared to death of trusting myself.....I still love and accept myself completely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 10, 2008 Report Share Posted November 10, 2008 I'm not familiar with that particular book but I have read others by her. She is a very good author. Others might recognize her as a regular columnist in the O Magazine. Alana > > Anyone here familiar with Martha Becks book The Four Day Win.
