I was thinking about New Years resolutions. I don't want to set another weight related resolution that ill probably fail at, I want to really work on beating this eating disorder and eating healthier.
I'm not waiting until January 1st, I'm already working on not eating out so much and only drinking water. I just looked at my bank statement online, and in November, I ate out 18 times! And 17 times in October! And that's what I paid for with my debit, I may have paid cash once or twice. I'm doing good so far though, only twice so far this month.
I am also making a resolution to eat 3 meals a day with my daughter *at the kitchen table*
A lot of the time I'm eating all day long, or ill binge early in the day and not be hungry for the rest of the day so she eats and I don't. Plus, we don't always eat at the table, we eat in the living room in front of the tv.
I'm also trying to make healthier choices in meals.
Basically I just want my daughter to learn good habits from me, and so far I'm lucky she hasn't picked up my bad habits yet. (Except when we go to the mall and walk past the food court she whines to get something to eat:/ )
So what are you're New Years resolutions?

I don't believe in making New Years resolutions....no point in making something I'm going to break anyway....no matter what it is.

I have actually already started on the Sunday before Thanksgiving when everything in my house was breaking around me & I wasn't getting to the things I knew I needed to fix & they were getting worse not better....so I stomped around my house saying how much I hated my life. Since that Sunday, I fixed my backed up toilet with a toilet auger, replaced the toilet flow valve in that same toliet that was broken.....& I replaced the hose in my kitchen sink so I can now wash/rinse off my dishes without flooding under my kitchen sink.....getting things done on my to do list that have been there for years has finally started.....& I'm doing them myself because I don't have money to hire anyone. Life isn't all about eating/not eating....but when I get frustrated it is about not eating so there is a correlation......but as far as them being tied to New Years.....I don't do that kind of thing....Getting to the point where my wise mind tells me I have to get this thing done......is the only time any resolutions are meaningful because it's the only time the action will occur
