...the second 10 pounds are gone!
I wanted to share that victory with you all--a small victory for some, but a big victory for me.
I also wanted to share something else that is going on with me. Last week, as I was eating my way through a whole box of sugar free ice cream bars, I finally admitted that I am a compulsive overeater and sugar addict. My problem is not solely a physical problem, but a spiritual and emotional problem. No matter what food plan I go on, unless I get to the root of my problem, I will never be free.
I have been attending Overeaters Anonymous meetings online and reading everything I can get my hands on. I also have a friend who is a 12 stepper for a different addiction who is supporting me. I am planning to attend a face to face meeting in my area soon, and am keeping my eyes and heart open for a sponsor who has the kind of recovery I want.
I have not binged in five days, and I have not had sugar since 4/27. I am grateful for every abstinent day.
I wanted to share this here because I consider the 100 lb Club to be my home, and its members to be my family.
Thank you for being on this journey with me. Much love to you all!
