I coudln't be trusted around them.<br /><br />But that IS sad. <br /><br />And honestly? What does that mean I'm telling myself? That I can't be trusted and that I'm not trustworthy. Awesome pep talk, no?<br /><br />So, instead, I'm trusting myself around all foods. Sometimes I do better than others...and sometimes when I reach for certain foods, I'm aware that I'm actually feeling something else.<br /><br />But still, I trust.<br /><br />Keep up the great work - you're going to lose these 80 pounds - I just know it.Happy Fun Pantshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16764438670187538319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6042613739572921643.post-32333403651534845132010-06-17T20:24:35.992+01:002010-06-17T20:24:35.992+01:00Make sense?

Your point abo...Make sense? Yep. Sure does to me. <br /><br />Your point about finding balance is a good one. I too feel there's no point 'banning' certain foods forever, particularly the 'old favourites', as they'll sneak into your consciousness in a weak moment to trip you up. Allowing yourself a 'small' amount of them 'infrequently' makes much more sense to me.<br /><br />The only person who can do this (losing the weight and getting healthier) is you, and whatever method suits the person you are is the right one. <br /><br />A step forward is a step forward - who cares if someone else can take a bigger step or more of them. Your final destination is all that matters.<br /><br />Keep up the good work :-)Denizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09633002838343992787noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6042613739572921643.post-87175343617369518002010-06-17T20:22:28.120+01:002010-06-17T20:22:28.120+01:00Yes it does. Perfect sense. Good point, and backe...Yes it does. Perfect sense. Good point, and backed by Oscar too. <br /><br />It'd be miserable to think you could never eat certain foods again. I think part of me would die with the prospect of no Chinese takeaway ever ever ever. I hope when I get one in front of me again, that I'll be able to treat it with the same moderation you did with the doughnuts.Christiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07103117824751433119noreply@blogger.com
