Feeling much better today. I realized how much I've gained in the last few months and how much better off I am with NoS. I am much more confident, have more energy and so much less angst about food/body/eating issues. So hopefully I will continue to lose weight but I need to recognize how far I've already come and enjoy my accomplishments a bit.
Plus I really enjoy not snacking, exercising and I love exploring lighter cooking. I seem to be having trouble with containment lately (strong urge to pick while cooking, cleaning up meals) but I will work on that and hopefully get that tightened up. After that, there's not a whole lot more I can do except maybe switch to black coffee and water only but yeah don't think I can live with those terms.
Other than that I just need to keep doing what I'm doing and trust that my body will find a healthy place to land. I've also been back to weighing too often & that needs to stop. I'm going back to 1/week. Why torture myself more often than that? That's still often enough to get adequate info but not too often to make me nuts.
Also, I really want to work on being able to say No. I think I say yes because I don't want to be rude but I end up doing stuff I really don't want to and resenting it later. That really doesn't benefit anyone in the end now does it? Sooooo I ended up telling my "friend" I couldn't get together Monday or watch her kid on Tuesday. Normally I would feel guilty but with her I don't. Long story!
