Food Addiction Support Group
An individual suffering from a food addiction disorder frequently experiences episodes of uncontrolled eating, or binging, during which they may feel frenzied or out of control. They will eat much more quickly than is normal, and continue to eat even past the point of being uncomfortably full. Binging in this way is generally followed by a period of intense guilt feelings...
Okay, so December was a lost month for me, where I gained 3 pounds. But this morning, I got up, showered and vowed to start anew. I am stopping the slide right now!! It actually took me 20 minutes to figure out what to eat. I decided on a scrambled egg, a 100 cal. English Muffin and a slice of low fat cheese. I bypassed the leftover candy, cookies and junk food. Today I begin fresh!! Who is with me?
still in the spirit of the thing, i offer this excerpt from a Jewish prayer called Al Chayt.
For the blessings I lost by
not trusting myself, not trusting others,
For withholding love and support,
being judgmental of others & myself
For thinking I would run out of love if
i gave too much away.
For doubting my ability to love
& receive love from others.
In naming these lost blessings, i let go of regret
& bitterness, i recognize the inexhaustibility
of lifes blessings & i vow to be open to
these blessings as they come to me
in the coming year.
