we can practice reframing maybe.. you know.. like instead of me saying i ate only half a tomato.. i can say i managed to eat half a tomato.. look for the positives

Kiya, you are just starting a new plan.. give yourself credit and time lovey... no one learns how to climb everest the first time in hiking boots, right? Stay strong

luckyyou.. the thing is, and any addiction program will tell you, that making a promise... and doing this for someone else, just is setting yourself up for a fall. It isn't so simple.. and although yeah, you have to decide to stop permenently at some point.. a cold turkey promise without help is likely to be very difficult. Stopping usually requires support, professional i mean... or s support group, talking it out here even... and it requires dealing with the underlying issues. Afterall, noone of this is about food for any of us really. You CAN do this... you really can.. but give yourself tools to help yourself. This is such a monster to face alone. If nothing else.. ask your BF to help you.. the over-eating of junk foods.. he could help you there.. help give you a remindr cue. Maybe send him to the counter to order for you so you wont over-order yourself. i dunno.. it isn't easy, sugar... i wsh you strength. Give yourself credit for evey little milestone. You made it two days- YAY! Make it three... make it four... baby steps maybe.

i haven't eatne yet today... but i do not want to go to therapy and tell T this.. i want to be able to tell him that yes, i ate something today. It's hard bc i lost another 4lbs and of course that brings out the thrill and the resisitence to eating.. i am determined to try. Maybe cottage cheese or some fruit.. i can i can i can.

peace out kids.. we can do this
