largelassy's Journal, 20 October 2016

well have been just trying to stay the same bcs been way too overwhelmed to focus on losing but i guess i let stress get the best of me. my mom pointed out that she thought i had gained again and she was right.......i hadn't wanted to face the scale cause i knew i had been comfort eating....not really much junk food but more having an extra meal when i shouldn't. and i haven't been eating out of hunger but pretty much strictly emotional eating. i wasn't pleased with my mom pointing things out, especially today cause i was just beginning to gain my sanity and had put on make up and earings and tried to look better....but i realize that intervention has to happen or it could have gotten worse....so i really have to text and thank her.....she means well and she cares and only a mom can say somethings to you that need to be said....plus it would probably be a long wait for the perfect moment to express her concern because life is full of imperfect days and waiting till it is perfect to face eating issues isn't really very practical! however, there are lots of perfect moments......so time to breathe deeply and have one right now:)!!!

You'll get there! Try not to judge yourself. Try to treat the comfort eating as just facts not as good or bad. It's fine not to be able to work towards your goal 100% of the time. As you said life is full of imperfections! I find that if I'm not judgemental it's easier to log stuff and have an accurate picture of what going on which make it easier to move on from comfort eating :-)

thanks.....yes, beating myself up leads to feeling worse which leads to comfort eating!

Be patient with yourself! It's the effort over the long run that matters. You got this!
