I'm making sure I'm telling people what help I need. I hate asking for help, but have to keep telling myself that I do need it! A good friend who brings me donuts once a week has said he'll stop which is a big help - I always feel obliged to eat things offered, which is something I need to work on.

I had a significant period of abstinence last year, and I keep thinking back to then. I'm assuming I need to treat today as a new thing, and not compare it to 'last time' don't I? I should keep in mind how on Bagel led to a complete collapse. Its so much easier to be abstient than to be unhappy.
