First weigh in…what a disaster!

Posted ravengirl on April 26th, 2008 | Filed under Whining

Okay, it is just driving me crazy that I cannot keep my focus!  Do you ever feel like you are on a circular track to nowhere? I know the way off the track…I have the tools to get off the track, but I ignore them and continue with the same junk that has kept me on the track until now! 

  I know that meditation, yoga, exercise, and mindfulness are all tools that connect me to my body and put me in the right mindset to do what is best for it…  So, when that feeling of wanting to eat hits why don’t I go off into a corner and do a few sun salutations or some following my breath?  I DON’T KNOW!!!  Instead, I run to sugar and since I have gotten older it seems sugar rushes are just not as fun as they once were…in fact they make me feel pretty wretched.  Just one more reason to stay off the track, right? You would think so. 

    Just so you know, this is not me giving up, or why meing….  I am picking myself up and continuing from here… I am just giving voice to the frustration inside and hoping that by letting it out it will allow me to stay off that track…and move on to new scenery….

    Hey! I found you finally. Questioning yourself is a good thing, but you knew that. Good that you’re voicing the feelings. You’ll be on track today, I feel it!

    Hi! Thanks for the note on my blog. I am now reading thru yours and agree, we do share thoughts in many areas. I too get drawn to sugar- i dont know if it stems from childhood comfort or what, but I’ll tell you, even knowing I shouldnt, I do. I think our subconscious is more powerful than we can imagine. I am looking into hypnosis, cause I am not really winning this weight battle. Mindful as I am, it still kicks my but. I know I am an emotional eater, I KNOW THIS, and still cant control it. So, Raven, you are not alone.
    Looking forward to getting to know you more!!!
    Sandy
