Re: Question about timing...bedtime snacks... M & M's

[Guest guest]

I haven't given in to the notion of throwing out my M & M's even though I have

secretly tried to swear off them from time-to-time in spite of believing that

would only make matters worse. I noticed today that my stash is getting kind of

low and I will go out and buy another big bag. I'm eating them less often and

with less of a sense of urgency; but I do eat them even though I wish I

wouldn't....

One of my long-term battles has been with the belief that I'm out of control or

can't trust myself around certain foods - and so I'm keeping these stinking M &

M's stocked until I can finally lay that to rest.

Sometimes they're great and I eat only some; sometimes they're not so great and

I eat a bunch anyway because I'm rebelling. But I will not let myself become

afaid of them or move them to forbidden. I do not want to live my life afraid

of food - or afraid of myself around food. Good luck with those pistachios.
