So i allowed myself to have 2 servings of ice cream last night. Yesterday was a very emotional day. I finshed my 4th step and it was draining after i let it sink in. BUT i still considered this a huge success because normally i would go into emotional eating mode and would have ate the entire container of ice cream plus more food and ended up in a food coma. I don’t feel disgusted about it and im proud i kept it under control. I also took a walk and did an hour of meditation yesterday. I chaired a SLAA meeting and attended another one after. I have come to see recovery as being in training to deal with feelings and emotions. There are things i know i MUST avoid, but other things i have to learn to deal with.

Today’s eating has been good. Had a late lunch/ early dinner. So i missed a meal. If i get hungry I’ll snack on some celery. This has become my go to snack and i HATED celery lol.

Awesome! Keep it up and Yes we do! Getting the water intake i need has helped so much. I’m not hungry or craving anything. I am going to make cauliflower crust for things as a veggie serving. Egg, cauliflower and cheese is what the recipe calls for.

Yesterday day 11 went okay. I didn’t overeat or snack on anything that I shouldn’t have I just didn’t get all of my food in. I was struggling with things and I had no appetite which is very strange usually I would devour everything in sight. Today I still don’t have much of an appetite. So that’s a good thing I also attended an OA meeting in person. There was a guy there that was talking to me and I said that I’ve been doing okay with my addictions and he laughed and he said ha ha ha she’s doing okay she says. I did not like that comment. The way he said it was very condescending and I just laughed it off and left. I know for future reference that I do not need to associate with this guy. This is a meeting that I can go to consistently because they will allow me to bring my son with me so that is a huge help. I’m very happy about this.

Progress not perfection

I had my regular breakfast today and it was hatd to eat. My appetite is still not back. I think it’s because my body is still adjusting to the changes. I read it could take up to 4 weeka for my body to adjust to the veggies. I cannot eat broccoli unless it is cooked and only in small amounts. I have a feeling cauliflower is the same. I’ve been getting my water intake in.

Today is my 15th day of my OA plan. The last 4 or 5 days i have not been doing everything as directed. My stomach was not feeling good. I mostly had my breakfasts everyday. Yesterday was day that i went off the most. I had an ice cream bar and ate pepperoni and cheeae, a little more than i should have. But that was the most I’ve had in the last few days. Today I’m back on track. My stomach finally feels better. I also realized i need to cut way back on my caffeine intake. I had a major crash this weekend. I was mentally and physically drained. It threw everything out of whack. So no more espresso. Back to one cup of normal coffee a day and no caffeine after 2pm.

I’m not resetting my time because i have not completely lost control. So day 15✅️
