Wow, so I have defined my abstinence.

I have a new sponsor in OA, I realized that I needed to change.. anyway,

i am doing 90/90.  90 meetings in 90 days.

The first thing I had to write was a definable abstinence in regard to my food behaviors.  I thought, not possible. It is my entire life.

Well, they say,  you only have to change one thing

EVERYTHING

well. so I did keep it simple.   but it is a list of about 10 things that will be able to say.

I am doing it or I am not.  no wiggle room.

I am to call my sponsor every night.

I meet with her every other week.

and write everyday

follow my plan of eating which is almost defined. just have to get it approved.

And you know.  mypyramid.gov is an excellent website for meal planning.

I liked it because it is not my information that I fish for, it is researched average and reasonable information.  I am following the recommended guidelines.  Well see if it works as far as the particulars might have to be adjusted according to what my body needs but at least it is a start.

 I can no longer afford to see a nutritionist or I would.

Its funny, all the years I had treatment and had nutritionist at my beck and call basically and now. I don't have that access.  and that is okay.  If I do end up really needing a more tailored plan, I will have to save up the money and go.  It wil be what it will be.

and I am going to suit upa nd show up with it.  JUST DO IT.

I hope everyone is doing okay.
