I had to take a photo of myself for another purpose so I thought I'd post it here.
Notice the tiny tiny boobs - I don't even have a bra on :-)
Something unthinkable when I was 80 kgs.
My expected loss this week didn't go to plan - I only lost .3kg of the recent gain.
Along with other things going on in my life, this triggered a huge binge after weigh in on Tuesday night - a real "eat everything in the house" type binge including apple pie and pizza.
I felt so sick after that episode that eating clean after that wasn't a problem. This week I have switched to no count and stopped weighing myself twice a day at home. I am trying to sort out what's going on in my head as I can do the eat and move thing without too much trouble - just the "think" part of it is difficult. I want to stop obsessing about what I eat and what the scales say. It is driving me crazy!! I am trying to trust my body and listen to my hunger. Instead of going all day on hardly any food because I am so busy at work and then eating all night, I am trying to eat and SNACK during the day. This is day 3 of the experiment and it seems to be working so far ... fingers crossed. I don't feel ravenously hungry at dinner and have even had two nights without dessert!!! YAY!!
It is my birthday on Monday and hubby bought me a slow cooker. I have already made ratatouille [can't spell it] and it tasted so good. All those veges -YUM.
The black cloud has lifted - I am back in control - I am looking forward to the freedom of forgetting about food all the time.
HI
ReplyDeleteI have a slow cooker and love using it. I bought the Womens Weekly casseroles and stews cook book and convert those recipes to the slow cooker.
Any chance you could post your ratatouie recipe?
What an absolutely gorgeous photo - you must be so pleased with this. My boobs have shrunk too but they no longer "sit" in the right place - so no "no bra" wearing for me!
