Don’t loose courage.I wish I would have read this about an hour ago. Today is the monthly Birthday Cake Day here at work, and I got me a small piece of white and a small piece of chocolate cake. I did tell myself, however, that they would be the last pieces I get until I can start eating better. I eat so many bad foods!
I know myself and cannot go cold turkey or completely eliminate sugar from my diet. When I was successful on Weight Watchers, I planned something sweet every day. I couldn’t believe how that satisfied my craving. I need to get back to that. That was also when I was doing yoga (gasp! - I did it only for the exercise and stress relief - the breathing is wonderful!). It gave me a lot of will power!
To me it has been like this: Suddenly the will is there… like lightning from the sky.
We need to change our habits then… our daily routines. Stop bringing cake to work ( I told my colleagues to give me trouble if they saw me bringing any more of that stuff and it helped me) etc.
I have found that 0, 5 percent chocolate milk can satisfy me quite well… I dont need to eat cakes and chocolate…
I do it out of habit… and because it makes me relaxed… In my country eating is connected with life quality. I should turn to liqrish tea… much better
Peace
