Päiväkirja - Ruhu, 19 touko 14

Progress, not perfection… I know that's what I'm striving for, and I know I'm making progress, but not as quick or continuous as I'd like. After a struggle yesterday to curb sugar cravings & disordered thoughts about what/what not/how much to eat, I was able to get back to more ordered, less obsessive thoughts about food & focus on enjoying the day. It was beautiful weather and although I was tired from the late night out the night before, I got to my workout, meditated, took my doggie on a nice walk, got some housework done & enjoyed a nice dinner with DS (DH was traveling for work & other DS was with his GF who graduated yesterday and moves home today). But, still after dinner, my berries & tea, closing the kitchen & settling in for the evening with my iPad & watching tv, once DS went off temporarily to play his guitar & I was left alone, I started snacking and it led to more, and became more than I could have possibly been hungry for. So, yes I worked through the cravings & disordered eating thoughts of the day, but I need to figure out a way to deal with the evenings, particularly Sunday evenings which have been a trigger time for me for years. In the past, I've overeaten or binged on Sundays then restricted throughout the week. I'm now trying to balance that through eating more mindfully weekends & weekdays.

So on I go -- I've been to my workout & am off to my therapist soon, but will stop to pray --

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And I'll pray, breathe, log, journal & express my way through this one day and each one meal, moment, thought & emotion. I'm so grateful for each of you, my family & IRL friends, therapy -- here and IRL, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love. xoxox

I've been doing the same thing and my Monday morning weigh ins are a problem. :) We will make it through this. You are not alone.

You seem to know the triggers, now you just need to find a different outlet to replace those triggers. I know I said alot and nothing really made sense. I hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Some advocate one cheat day / spike day a week, but when I tried that a few years ago, it was really hard to recover and go back to healthy eating (and smaller amounts) after the cheat day. One day a week probably won't sabotage your efforts - but yes, balance, balance in all things.

I understand what you mean. The weekends in general are a little higher in calories for me, even if I don't mean for them to be. I get caught up in the activities and don't monitor myself as closely. It does bum me out, because it keeps me from losing even 1 lb a week. I think I have gained the lb I lost last week and it was so hard to lose it. I just wish I could just do as well on the weekends as I used to. ANY ADVICE ????

I dunno .. you struggle w/eve's.. me with people. We'll find the answer someday and until then, as you wrote.. Progress not perfection. If we were perfect.. it'd all be down hill all the time, right?
