Eft?
So today my eating was alright. I stepped on the scale and it read 177 - shit better than 180.
I’ll take it!
So there will be another attempt to get the gym tomorrow.
Now there’s this show that’s gonna come on Bravo tonight - it’s called ‘I’ll Make You Thin’ something about overcoming emotional eating etc. So I’m gonna watch it. But as I was looking it up I found this Emotional Freedom Technique which I found a few videos for on You Tube. It’s interesting enough - it goes way out of hand though with the ‘abundance in your life’ stuff and it supposedly heals everything from trauma to warts but the concept is innocent enough. So I think I’ll try it on the cravings…. I’m also gonna try it before bed to see if it’ll help with sleep.
I’m willing to try things. You never know what might work for you.
I had a rare moment with Shopaholic today, she stated talking about her insecurities around meeting someone she met on an internet dating site (yes, this is the same one who said e-ugly was ‘desperate’). Now before her going into therapy, we talked about her feelings a lot. Now, you rarely hear anything from her because she talks to her therapist. It’s funny, like kinda losing the girlfriend part of the relationship where you can bitch to each other about shit. Anyhoo, she’s afraid of making anyone the center of her world again. Understandable - it’s so recently after the break up (6 months now). I let her know what I thought and as I was speaking to her I wondered if she looks at me now as an ‘unhealthy’ person because I don’t go to therapy as she always tells me I should go.
You know, that just made me cry. I remembered when she rejected me for some dude after I opened myself up to her about how I felt about him. It broke my heart - that seemed to dredge up those feelings. So I took that opportunity to use that EFT tapping stuff and guess what, after 4 go arounds - I feel better.
Weird.
Cool.
I think that’s what you call DISTRACTION - tapping the shit outta yourself in different pressure points till you’re calm.
Whatever, I feel better now.
Hmmmm…. gonna try it the next time I have a craving.
Time to eat some grapes.
