The first 2weeks are seriously the hardest for me and today sucks for me. I WANT ICE CREAM sooo bad. It's ucky ewwy outside, my house is super clean, laundry is done, dogs bathed, and caught up on editing till Saturday. I need a distraction or something...
I will not give in, I will not give in, I will not give in.
start a blog (your first entry can be about how much you want ice cream. When you look back a few months from now, you will be surprised how much you will have changed!)
Take the freshly bathed dogs for a walk, so they can get muddy and you can give them another bath
I know it's hard. Just remember if you happen to slip not to beat yourself up over it. You can do it, though. We women are strong and mighty. Also, if you really want a cold treat, you can try yogurt. You can put a low fat yoplait in the freezer for a few hours, and when you take it out, it's like icecream.
Thanks! I've got my eye on the prize! You can do it too! My first goal during recovery to to transfer or re-type my facebook "notes" to my blog. I just re-read what I wrote 2 years ago, and it is amazing how much I have changed and didn't even know it!
That is why I recommended you do a blog. When the changes are small, it is hard to see them initially. But boy, do they add up over time! Make sure to include a link to your blog so I can come read it!
