I threw a mini child tantrum this evening when I broke out the tape measure and decided to take my measurements. They were obviously not as good as I thought that they were going to be ;-) But then my husband reminded me that "damn it Cindy, don't give up! It's not worth all of the hard work that you have been doing just because you are disappointed in numbers." Of course he's right but don't tell him that. So, I started reading from a great website online. It's for people who struggle with addictions, any addictions. The site gives AMAZING information on how to deal with life's ups and downs. The website is www.smartrecovery.org After re-reading some great articles, I am reminded that habits are hard to break and that it takes time to actually break them. I have heard for many years that it takes 14 or 21 days to break a habit. I believe that it takes closer to a year. Changing habits takes a lot of practice. If it was so easy, there would be less overweight people, alcoholics, drug addicts, and so on. In all honesty, to change a habit you have to force yourself to act differently than you feel.
