Still making crappy food choices. Not always but often enough. And I’m not feeling guilty because they are “bad” but because they make me feel tired and slow. I am somehow stuck here right now. I’d like to move beyond it. An occasional food/meal that makes me feel like yuck [...]

Would it be a slippery slope if I wrote down foods that make me feel healthy and well? Would that make me automatically reject them and choose crap that makes me feel bad? I lean towards yes - I am that messed up in my head that it just may make me head [...]

Why do I choose foods that make me feel like shit?
I eat so many crappy carb foods. They make me feel weak, foggy, slow. Why do I do this to myself? I always feel better with protein and healthier carbs like veggies and fruits. But I don’t make that choice for [...]

I finally got the phone call and the details that I was waiting for were acceptable so I accepted the position.
Easy peasy.
Sigh. So what a waste of anxiety, over eating, what not. When I get all swirly like that I just want to deal with it without reaching for food. That’s my one (out [...]

It’s been [...]

Someone found my blog by doing a search for “spiritual eating”. I was curious to see how I came up via that way on Google so I did the same search, which also led me to this article.
I am confused how this is considered “spiritual eating”. I see how one or two of [...]

Geneen Roth suggests keeping a food journal for at least a week (although she kept one for a year). Just to examine what was eaten, how I felt, etc… And she admits that it may strike a bit of fear because a food journal sounds like something done back in the “diet days”.

I have been on a crazy # of diets. None of them impressively successful but the two I had the greatest weight loss with were Weight Watchers (points) and Body for Life. And the funny thing about those two is that they were the ones where I was most obsessive over eating/food choices/how [...]

I went to a new doctor yesterday who I really liked. She actually sat down with me, asked me tons of questions, and made sure I was all set before heading to the next client. I haven’t received that kind of service from a medical doctor in years.
The one sucky thing - my [...]

Still working on my various books and added another to the mix (see comments - DH got it as one of his wedding anniversary gifts for me).
I feel like I am in sort of a stand still. Occasionally having bad body thoughts, visiting some IE/FA blogs, doing my reading a bit per day… [...]
