I feel horrible...it seems all of my will power has gone out the window and I simply want to indulge in all the foods I know will make me unhappy. I feel sluggish, I've been sleeping too much, I'm having stomach pains...all the symptoms of eating too much sugar and not enough fiber. I'm longing for the light, healthy self I love so much.
So I have decided that today I'm going to go to a store and purchase myself a present, a ring, that I will wear with the sole purpose of making good food decisions. It seems that when I have an outside reason, a purpose other than myself, I can draw more strength and will power from that purpose. I'm not sure why remaining accountable to myself does not work, but I'm hoping that having a physical reminder will encourage me to turn down a free apple pie at work, or stop me from munching mindlessly on the box of cookies that are always available. I will be going today to purchase my new ring, and here's hoping that this strategy works!
