Alnona's Journal, 06 Oct 21

I fell apart late last night. The pressure in my heart and mind are getting to be to much. I am an addict...I have a gambling addiction as well as a food addiction and it's killing me. I put all this energy into my body & trying to fight off the cravings for food but it leaves very little energy to fight off the other. I've put myself in a very bad position and I've no one to blame but myself. I'm venting I know but there is no one here to confide in. I thank the Good Lord for all I have & the good fortune to have shown me Fat Secret & the wonderful people here.

As far as the diet just start off with basic calorie counting- use a google calorie configuration - most women it atarts off with around 1300 calories if no exercise. Gambling obviously more complicated issue/ try a reversal and look into a saving money habit. God Bless you and we support you on fat secret. Have a super Day Pam and Shadow the cat !!!🙂🐈‍⬛

I have been told there a great app. Craving to quit. I applies to all addictions. Not free, subscription required. I think it runs around $25. monthly.

I'm in the process of finding a new hobby that doesn't involve $$$ & food. Something that's productive, creative. Also, relearning to cook all over again. It's a challenge to remake all your favorite meals in a healthier version. Sometimes you just need to refocus. Keep your eyes on the mini victories. Give yourself a non food, non destructive treat when you meet your goal. You can do this. There is some steam left. You ate stronger than you think.✊

😝Typo edit. You are stronger than you think. ✊

Battling any addiction is tough. Usually the largest obstacle to recovery is to be in denial. You are brave. You have already overcome that with your acceptance of your situation. There is nothing wrong with seeking help. Prayers going up in your behalf...
