Have increased my (gentle, healing) exercise which has helped enormously.
Today I can see myself as the future, long term abstinent, little lady that I want to be.
Keeping food to mostly protein at this stage. Plus lots of fluid.
Glad to be part of this group.
Today is much better. Calm, zero cravings.
“Theatre Plays...” I LOVE this analogy and I’m going to remind myself of that phrase the next time I fantasize about food. It’s not real- it’s just a show- if anything it’s a preview to a show we already know the ending to. You are truly awesome for making it through all of that and not caving.
Do you mind sharing your gentle exercise? I am happy you have found something that is helping you.
