Thank y'all for such encouraging words.

You know, I've gone back & forth wondering if OA might be another step along this journey for me. WW has been great and I'm very thankful for the tools that I've been learning. The program works.... we've seen so many success stories. Yes, WW has made me more mindful of every single thing I put in my mouth and helped me focus more as food for fuel kinda mentality. I am thankful for being able to learn those tools and look forward to pushing past this mental barrier I have going right now.

Problem is, I've caught myself a couple times in the last month or so, in full binge mode. All the food & activity tracking didn't help me for squat when I got in that destructive mindset. While hiding in the kitchen, shoving raw cookie dough in my mouth, I question WHY am I sabatoging myself?!

I'm hoping that if I can just scratch below the surface to see how/why I relate to food, the better my chances for continued success will be. I want to learn tools to stop myself before I see self destructive behaviors pop up... how to recognize it, and put myself in check.

Thank y'all again for being the best group of supportive, encouraging friends I could have ever asked for!
