I just wanted to say a big thanks and hugs to everyone who has messaged me with support and advice. I feel very humble here in the midst of all your willpower, and im hoping it will rub off on me. Just being able to get through a weekend already, without breaking my promise to myself, just to please others, feels positive. Im glad I started this on a Saturday as I dont have the spectre of a weekend looming. I've done it once, I can do it again- with forward planning.
After my evening meal is bad for me, as for a lot of people I think. I've been solving it by actually going to bed. It seems that just by removing myself from the living room breaks the temptation...dont know why, but its like a closure somehow..like, ok, that's it, food all done for today, and once I am in the bedroom, reading or watching tv, I won't get up to get food, or eat in the bedroom...i suppose we just all need to find what works for us, and this seems to work for me.
Good luck everybody today x
