I'm reading yet another self-help book. It's called Only Fat People Skip Breakfast by Lee Jangoly. I've read another one of her books but this is hilarious. It's honest and common sense. Rubbing expensive cream into your thighs is no more effective at removing cellulite as cheap cream, it doesn't work!! Things like that. At the end is the Bingers Psalm, hopefully you'll be able to read it from the picture.
Anyway ive definitely identified my problem!! I'm not an overwater, overeaters graze and pick all day long on bad things, Bingers can go all day or even several days being good eating healthily then one evening binge. I never ever binge before tea, it's always after, it never occurs to me to binge earlier in the day. Interesting!!!

I love "Only fat people skip breakfast" I read it a few years ago, followed her advice re giving up sugar etc and lost quite a bit of weight but as usual for me went back to my old eating habits and the weight went back on, but once I hvae finished CD this time I am going to follow her advice, once again, and keep reading the book whenever I feel like I'm slipping. The part where she talks about "naturally slim" people is so true, overweight people seem to think that its unfair the "some" people can eat whatever they want and stay slim, but in fact naturally slim people do watch what they eat, and if they overeat on a special occasion cut back at other times without even thinking about it. When I read the book i could identify myself in so many of the scenarios!

This is related to dieting in a round about way. I'm just watching a Sex Education show with Anna Richardson, I really wish we'd had this kind of sex education at school because our sex ed was cr@p, basically it was how to put a condom on a banana. This programme is showing different bodies and how they're all normal, I think if I'd known that when I was 15/16 I wouldn't have quite as many body image hang ups as I do now. I also wish that I'd known that you can't really get it wrong, I spent so much time worrying about doing it wrong. Now it's a lot different, I guess it's things you realise as you get older but I kind of wish that'd been programmes like this when I was learning about it.
I'm pretty sure if I'd had more exposure to normal human bodies like this programme is doing for teens I wouldn't have had an eating disorder as a teenager and become a big fat binge eater as an adult. Because I wasn't fat I was normal, but I always thought I was fat!

Not as close as me, I can see the sea from my bedroom window lol. The breeze was cold but my back garden is nice and sheltered so it was really nice, not too hot not too cold! Inside my house is another story, it's been freezing inside all day, I almost put the heating on it's that cold.
