Hello all
Just popping in to say I miss everyone's diary updates. I know we have 'the other thing' going on, but it's not the same.
So I'm leading by example and this is me:
Kind of okay diet wise - haven't weighed for over two weeks (nothing short of a miracle for a sometimes 'twice daily' weigher!), very consciously eating when I'm hungry (anything I want) and not eating when I'm not. Sounds easy, isn't BUT is getting easier
Trying to see things long term - get eating under proper control and then start restricting foods (if necessary!)
W is blooming loving school and I am so loving seeing him flourish and grow. He is thriving in the learning environment and I am thrilled. He is popular and sociable (his teacher's words, not mine!).
I walk him to school every day and I walk him home once a week (on Wednesdays, when I work from home - Dad does the other days). Paul McKenna talks lots about 'havening' as a technique to relax yourself and forget about food/drink/money/whatever your weakness is. Havening is a technique for bringing your body to peace (and PM teaches it well) but I don't feel I need it because the school run and reading my Munch a bedtime story are my havening moments
Much love to you all. Keep on keepin' on
