Tips

"Start the day with a large glass of water. At first you might feel a little icky drinking water on an empty stomach, but after a few days you will adjust and be fine. It's a great way to cleanse your system and jump start your appetite for breakfast." |

Doing better Finally I am on the upswing with this head cold. I felt pretty good all day yesterday. On another note, I had been avoiding the scale like the plague as my eating has been so inconsistent and mostly bad. I had decided that I must be near 190 because of the way my clothes are fitting and the obvious water retention. I faced the scale this morning and was so pleasantly surprised that it said 178. So, that was a quick loss of 12 pounds! Still, I can't continue how I've been going. I'm starting to dig my old clothes out of the bins downstairs cuz my closet clothes are too tight. I'm trying hard not to be too tough and rough on myself. I'm still working the OA program but found a sponsor who has a whole different approach, one who is balanced and gentle. I think that is what I need right now. |

Good luck with the new program ~ it's sounds a little more forgiving. Keep positive throughout. You can do this! Just glad that you're feeling better. It seems to always throw you a loop when you're sick and then takes time to get back at it. Be patient with yourself. You do have alot on your plate and I don't mean your dinner plate. Good luck, good luck!
Good job on finding a new sponsor who can help you. Im happy that your feeling better and dont worry in time, your eating will get back to normal too..The most important thing is to take care of yourself first!!
It's sort of a relief that it IS a cold and not ragweed, huh-otherwise, you would have this for a couple more months! At least the cold is starting to get better. :)
Glad you are feeling better!
Yay! I love those pleasant surprises when it goes in your favor!! Glad you're feeling better, too. I think you do need a gentler sponsor. So glad you found someone. Don't beat yourself up about your eating... it's overwhelming sometimes to think about what you're eating when you don't feel good. You'll get it all under control when you're better!
