Oh wow MB....synchronicity indeed. I well remember our challenges in giving up nicotine and sugar...and here we are again...ready to take the next step. Please don’t be disheartened about the binge, it’s a blip, you got this girl.
Bimini...I totally understand what you mean about language being important and how putting tight restrictions around food leads to control issues. I find it so difficult with healthy eating, because is it ok to have a day when you can have a slice of cake? How does that not end up as a complete binge, because I’m pretty sure it would for me? Do I see this path towards healthy eating as a journey in which I might have some days when I rest and others where I surge forwards, but I’m always heading in the right direction? As an alcoholic I’m pretty much an all or nothing kind of girl, and I guess I might have to challenge some of that thinking actually.
Venus...big hugs to you today.
