Oh Nancy.....(((((HUG)))))) for you!! What a sweet thing you are! You care so much! Don't give up hope...We will all find our pace. Me included! And that girl will find her way. Promise!
I get this...I really do!! I have the same worries and fears but you know honey...fate is not set in stone. We have choices and we can make them day by day, sometimes minute by minute. If you eat a carb that wasn't in your plan, forgive yourself and start caring for yourself again the next moment...no beatings, no berating ...just start again.
We have fought and won over what 12 step programs call the lion. We have wrestled it down and locked it in a cage. With Food addictions, we have to open the cage and play with the angry lion 3 times a day! It's a struggle honey, something we will have to deal with but it's not insurmountable! The tool of WLS is a great way to keep the cage door closed!
We will do what ever it takes to care for ourselves every day because who else knows what we need like we do? Who understands our fears, needs and wants more then we do? Who can give us those things more readily then we can?
No worries honey! TODAY we are making the right choices for ourselves. THAT's what counts!
