My erratic blogging came to a grinding halt again last year and now has come the time to give it another bash. There were enough posts on my generic blog ('lifestyle blog' they're apparently called - sounds a bit posher doesn't it) on the subject of overeating that I decided to import them into a separate blog. So here's my new home for all things overeating and intuitive eating... Kerry on Eating.
So, starting yet again with the blog and starting yet again with my journey into intuitive eating and understanding my overeating. I feel a bit of failure. I've 'started again' so many times and never last more than a day or so. The Beyond Chocolate principles, which I was introduced to eight years ago, make so much sense to me and yet I can't seem to let go and allow myself to embrace them. Maybe that means that they aren't for me. But dieting isn't for me and I sure as heck don't want to spent the next fifty years overeating day in, day out. I'm so angry at myself for wasting the last eight years. Or maybe that's just the gremlin talking. I need to find a way forwards though. I don't want to spend the rest of my life overeating and hating my body. I'm the heaviest I've ever been and I don't like the way I look. My love of sugar has also led to a lot of damage to my teeth - at least ten fillings (I've actually lost count) in the last five years.
Where to start then? Back to basics I suppose. Care for the body I have the best I can. Revisit the Beyond Chocolate principles. Reread some of the intuitive eating books I have. Pick one tiny thing and experiment with it. For one day. One meal. One bite. Whatever it takes.
