I Wondered why my Frisbee was getting bigger....

Than It Hit Me !.... lol That is how I felt when I looked at myself in the mirror. I kept getting bigger and bigger. Even with the band I kept getting bigger and bigger. Then I had that experience of getting hit. And oh the pain. It came in the form of a heartfelt letter from my darling adult son. You know when someone throws a Frisbee at you and you put your hands up either to defend yourself or to catch it, but you miscaculate and the Frisbee "Clunks" off your head.? Well that was like the experience I felt when I read his letter and then talked to him. I sort of tried to put up a defence but I got 'CLUNKED" in the head and heart. It woke me up real good and gave me resolve, determination and commitment. So what I am saying is that some times a good "clunk" from a Frisbee, or what ever, can be a good thing if it wakes you up and gets you going in the right direction. I am so grateful and actually proud to report I am doing great ! Blessings

Other than that e mail from my son ,this site has been the biggest help to my resolve. It has so much informatin in the forums which made me really look at myself and my relationship to food. Which was one of compulsion. Never really understood I had a relationship to food before I got on this site. It got me to discoverying and understanding my unhealthy relationship to food. Like most unhealthy relationships I was mostly consumed by it with my time, energy and exspenses. Crazy I know. Anywho, with the support and encouragement of the members on this site I have left this relationship of destruction in my life and CHOSEN a new kind of relationship to food. One where it no longer controls me but I control it. Maybe this wll help you as it did me.. That will be my prayer for you as you seek to regain your resolve to fight this fight of flab. lol Blessling.
