For the last couple of weeks I have been going through a really rough patch or in Oprahneses "creating a new normal". If you have been following lately you notice the lack of the Bridget Jones Moment and the lack of the terms of exercise, Mamma Mia, and the true reason why you stop by to see the fat drenched pictures of me laying on the floor dying.
In all things on this blog I have striven for honesty.So here is me being honest. I've gotten back in a bad cycle again with food. At the moment I am fighting the urge to finish off the half gallon of Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream. Since it is currently 11:34 pm I don't really want to call anyone and bug them so I am blogging this. A weird version of Over eater's anonymous perhaps?
When I started this a good friend said that food was like any addiction. When stressed or challenged we often return back to negative behaviors. Boy is that true.
Who ever said keeping fit and skinny was easy was never fat or paid somebody a lot of money to guarantee that they would never get that way again.
Stay posted.
This is merely a setback.
Not the end.
Promise.
For what it's worth, I like medium-size Oprah way better than super-skinny Oprah - she looks ill in that picture. Just try to be healthy and happy, and forget skinny. Sometimes, to be happy, you *need* a bite or two of mint chocolate chip icecream - and if you are otherwise healthy, a bite or two is not going to kill you. Just don't eat the entire carton in one sitting. :) You are an inspiration, Blake, and even if you never lost another pound, I would still be proud of you.
