I feel a bit strange today.
It’s been over a week since I tried to “diet”.
I feel like food has lost it’s magic. Like it’s JUST food.
I wonder how long this will last?!
I just had a satisfying breakfast (banana, plain soya yogurt, shredded wheat), and my lunch is pasta and beans leftover from yesterday. Yesterday’s food was pretty sensible too – banana sandwich, pasta and beans, soya yogurt, mango, porridge for tea, biscuits after (biscuits were a bit silly – unconscious eating, just need to keep an eye on that).
Over the weekend I was visiting a friend. She’s who I immediately think of when I picture someone with a “normal” relationship with food.
Today I feel like I genuinely stand a chance of being like her one day - in terms of attitude to food.
I haven’t smoked for 10 days too
I’m much more inclined to look after myself in all ways when I don’t smoke. Plus I can actually understand when I’m hungry etc.
I have a really busy week this week, but on Sunday I plan to go to the gym, and get back into doing that on a regular basis. Also going to do some yoga over xmas (maybe I should put some yoga music on my mp3 player?).
I hope this feeling lasts. I’m going to work on it, embrace it and nurture it.
