Carolyn Ray's Journal, 18 February 2012

Saturday: Semifasting today and tomorrow, I feel like I need to refocus on food for health and not for pleasure, In the past semifasting really has helped me regain perspective on using food for fuel, and focusing on what my body actually needs and not what i want.Which amazingly is very little. What I learned, holidays are very hard to deal with, so much of celebration has been connected to food, and the abundance of pleasureable food really has added to the good feelingds I have connected to the warm holiday feelings. Valentines day has literally meant heart shaped chocolates and eating rich food with non-stop snacking and baking. Whitout being able to do these things I feel I have really not celebrated Valentines day. I feel cheated and prevented from my tradition. Uneasy cravings and a small sence of emptyness has plagued me all week. This has made it very hard to focus on my diet.Small bites of cookies and chocolates have just made me very demoralized, like I cant do this, I read every one saying that todays a new day and everyone deserves a cheat day once in a while and I agree but, it is really affecting my resolve because I feel like its proof that I cannot do this, so semifasting for the next few days to get back on track mentally and scale wise....

I completely understand what you mean! It's hard, because it feels like there are emotional ties to the food associated to a holiday. You can do it, good luck on the semifast, be safe and be healthy!
