I would eat and eat and the only time I would stop was because I had to go to bed. I bet some of you find this hard to believe! It is true though; everyday it seemed like a contest to see how much I could stuff myself. I think I broke my old records constantly, almost daily.
Everything I did was an occasion to eat. If I was reading, watching TV, driving, on the computer. OK Ruthie, you are doing something new, lets eat! Talk about a habit! I was so bad! If food wasn't so high priced now I could tell you if we are saving money by me not eating my fill all the time.
So you are wondering how did I quit? Will power, mindset, writing down everything I ate, joined a support group, eat more filling foods, load up on the fiber foods, drink water, and tell everyone that I was loosing weight so I had lots of people wondering if I was going to do it!
I also took a hard look at myself. Is this the way or size, I want to be the rest of my life? I was already slowing down. I picture myself weighing 400 pounds and laying on the sofa, too big to do much and my aging body falling and breaking down because of the weight. You have to face reality! This was the future me!You can loose weight.
I am a stay at home person and I am around food 24/7 and I am doing it and still going for over 2 years.
I am here for you all and I know where there is a will, there is a way to reach your goals.
In Jesus,
Ruthie
