Hi everyone,
I’ve been posting here for about a year now, but only recently did I learn that readers have to go through hoops to communicate with me. My apologies - I didn’t know Yahoo was making it so difficult/impossible.
That problem, coupled with a lack of more advanced features, is leading me away from Yahoo 360. [...]

At least part of my wallowing yesterday was illness. I began to get cramps yesterday afternoon, and by the end of my workday didn’t want to do anything except go home and lie in bed. My childhood remedy for stomach cramps is saltine crackers and 7Up. We had the saltines, all right, but we only [...]

“I wake up each day happy and rarin’ to go”
That’s one of the positives I wrote last night. Naturally it’s not true this morning. Sigh.
No matter what state you’re in, it will always change. Whether it changes for the better or for the worse, is partially up to you.
I chose to wallow. I wallowed in [...]

Stopping binges is similar to stopping any unwanted habit. If you’re an emotional eater, you have to also interrupt the emotions associated with the event.
Don’t forget that normal eaters also have difficulty resisting some foods. Remind yourself that it’s ok to eat a bit too much, it’s ok to keep a tempting food in your [...]

Learning yesterday about using anchors to change my emotional state, I realized that I have several techniques available to change my thinking about myself, all derived from working on my ED.
Thinking like an investigative reporter: trying out something, like legalizing foods, paying attention to how it makes me feel, then deciding if I will incorporate [...]

Trisha Gura’s book, Lying in Weight, just arrived. Until I read about her book I had more or less decided that I wouldn’t buy any more ED books, since I am feeling very recovered from the 30 year long compulsive eating habit I had. But Scientific American had such a compelling interview with her, I [...]

My daughter didn’t want to go to Dachau today. She sees the school and the class she’s in as a prison and tries to avoid any prolonged contact. This school trip would be all day, with several hours on a bus. She’s also been already, maybe twice, so she also doesn’t feel that she has [...]
