I am on for first time. Have been attending meeting once a week. Lately, I have been more content and comfortable with self than I have for a long time. But, when I look around me my environment is chaotic with clutter and more so than it has been in a long time. Holidays are difficult re food - so often there is junk food around. I live alone and food is more than nutrition, its a focus. My refrigerator and freezer could feed me for a month or more! I had an idea today that I would start to limit my stops at grocery stores to once a month for anything other than bread, milk, eggs. That might help take the idea out of my head that food is entertainment. I don't have an eating plan, but know that unless I eat about 60 gms of protein a day I don't have energy or motivation. Big Book is interesting and helpful. Have been doing some reading of literature, but, am very reluctant to seek sponsor. No shame, but, live in small town area and find that folks here are not remiss about being judgmental or passing comments on to others. 5'3 and about 160 pounds. Would like to take this in 10 pound intervals and slowly. Have been doing 3 miles on exercycle a day and increasing resistance on bike gradually and doing intervals of high intensity. Its overwhelming.
