I watched the Biggest Loser with my husband (yes he is back) and we cried. I watched the determination in those folks and felt useless. So many attempts, so many failures. I spent the entire night thinking and crying. I spent the next day eating the worse possible things and crying. I punched the car steering wheel and screamed enough. Today I started and I am not turning back. My husband is behind me and my family is as always doubtful. I know the last attempted failed due to the severity and restrictions it held (600 calories). This time I am addressing each meal as a day. I am including foods I did not eat during the day. A balance mix. I welcome any and all input. Thanks for listening.

The most powerful thing I've learned from my 1st therapist: How to feel Empowered: I've removed three things from my thinking. They are
1. "Should".
2. "What if".
3. "If only".
It's amazing how this changed my life!
Changed from beating myself up with negative self talk, you know what I mean. Statements I made to myself in my head 'I'm so stupid", "what's wrong with me!" (I shouldn't have done that!" Oh, no! 'what if...'. and "If only I would have..."
She, my therapist, made me realize that I was doing this all the time! Just chatter in my head way too often beating myself up.
I found out that just stopping this chatter, without judgement, changed my life.
I no longer feel disempowered. Because all these things are areas that we have NO power.
We can't change the past (if only...) and we have no power in the future (what if...), and 'should's' are the worst, since there's nothing we can do about that 'should have' in the past.
We have power right NOW.
So, I dismiss thoughts of what I COULD have done, and address what I CAN do right now this moment.
WHEN I NOTICE I’M USING ‘SHOULD’ I just change it to ‘COULD have BUT DIDN’T. AND focus instead what to do NOW.
