I spent the last 3 days with 2 very dear friends...one of which I have been very, very close friends for almost 20 years...love each other like the relatives we want to have. So sometimes we share and say things that strike a cord...and strike a cord because we really DO care for each other.
I can tell she's worried because I won't say diet, because I won't track every bite and won't track every piece of exercise. She says she knows me and that she knows how and when I succeed. Other things may have been said, but it was finished with me feeling defensive and her just ending the conversation.
One of the things I did say was that I am working on me. It may sound like an excuse or b.s., but for me, it is where I gotta go right now. There are many reasons that I eat--and I do believe that the emotional side is the main reason...not just because I really like to eat. I am going to continue to work on how I think and self care. And not worry about how others think about what I am doing.
Meditation, intuitive eating, paying attention to what I am doing for me and for my family. The weight will come off and it will come off for good. All the diets I have been on have been successful for a time...but the weight comes back. I am ready. Feel ready, am ready. Life changing.
