Day 4 Why did these seem so difficult?

Amazing what a shift in thinking does.
Here I am on Day 4 and not any bit of a struggle.
I so do not get why I get so wrapped up in food. As Rachel likes to say, its not an Emergency!
When we were in NY, Dana spoke about defining herself as some one who does not eat bagels.
The point is that how we define ourselves is how we act.
Since returning home I have been pondering that and reinforcing it in my thinking.

This morning as I cooked chicken instead of breakfast I thought, other people do this and then corrected myself. No this is what I do. Prepare nutritious food in reasonable amounts and with a purpose.
Dana also spoke about being ready now to make the necessary changes.
I feel that too. Its time and I am ready.
My weight shifted -2.2lbs since yesterday. Things are moving in the right direction and I plan to keep to that.
As I look over my GO wear tracking its so interesting to see where my weight has been over the last year.
I have at least reset my highs and lows. Consistently I seem to stop myself at the same hi in weight and oddly enough the same low.
The hi is a good thing and its 20 lbs below my worst so I am happy that I have kept that much control.
The larger issue appears to be the self sabotage at the lower level.
I suspect this is a fear based issue and one I shall put to rest this year.
Its been a great weekend. No work and I have been getting things done. Making lists and spending time considering what I want to do next and why.
Its all good.
