My younger son started 1st grade this week - I'm a SAHM and this was SO hard on me. I've been in such a funk - I'm so alone all day.
I went that first full day and bought 2 bags of my "favorites."
I only ate a small handful of one thing - and I STOPPED. I just STOPPED. I was shocked....
I've avoided my favorite fast food binges all week, as well.
My chiropractor said the best thing ever to me this week - he said that I've graduated one stage of life, but that now I have the time to devote to ME and my health - and that will make me a better mom.
Changes in routine (particularly emotional ones like yours!) can make breaking free from binging so hard, GOOD JOB on cutting off a binge cold turkey! Congratulations!
Thanks!! I'm still hanging in there.....I even attended a wedding of a woman that was involved in something that hurt me deeply - and I didn't sit and scarf. I also didn't drink any pop all weekend. HUGE for me.
I think this big change has helped me see that I need to do things for myself, and that that will help me be better for my family.
