I'm so sorry I haven't updated sooner. I've been working on a blog post that has turned out to be more difficult than I expected. It involves my realization and acceptance (in progress) of being a food addict. Over the last month or so, I've finally started to admit to myself that I am a food addict and that I will be battling this for the rest of my life. Not an easy topic for me. I've found myself easily distracted and far too willing to put off completing it many times over the last week; a sure sign (to me) of its sensitive nature. It strikes at the core of why I eat the way I do, why I have allowed myself to get this heavy... this miserable... and why I will never be fully free of my "battle of the bulge & binge". I hope to post it within a few days as I'm determined to face this very vulnerable spot within and get it out on "paper". To see it is to face it is to start the process of recovery. If I am to live a healthier life, I need to work both on the cause as well as the symptoms.
Until then, Here is my current weigh in from my Tuesday night Weight Watchers meeting. I'm feeling good about the direction I'm moving in. Now to keep it going...
