Feeling positive

6 Replies

I'm not really sure what's different about today in particular but for the first time in a really long time I actually feel in control of what I'm eating. It's still early days in the diet for me so I've factored in a treat during the day so I don't binge but I don't feel the need to eat the entire kitchen. I know it's not going to be easy sailing and I'll still slip up along the way but for the first time I feel like I can really do this, instead of just feeling like I want to do it. It's a nice feeling and I'm holding onto it while it lasts!

It's a huge achievement when you feel in control of your destiny. And it's also good to have realistic goals. Yes, we'll all fall off the wagon along the way, but it's how you cope with that misdemeanour that's important, and you sound like you've equipped yourself with an excellent coping strategy. Good luck in your journey and reaching your ultimate goal!

Hi Determinedandready,

Really great to hear that you're feeling in control of what you're eating today, and it's great that you're feeling positive that you can really do this.

Hope the remainder of the week is a good one too.

Lowcal :-)
