Down 1!
Ok, one pound ain't much, but I'm claimin' it! My weight has been back up to 160 several times since january, and I keep rebounding with a 1 or 2 lb extra loss. Not great, but THIS time I think it's gonna stick. I've been messing with EFT tapping, and I'm pretty sure it's "taking". I have also been doing the Tony Robbins Personal Power cd's and program, and that's helping too. I guess I'm finally listening to all those people who say that weight loss is a mental/emotional issue, not just strictly a matter of calories in/calories out.
I realize that for me, my body needs very few calories to survive, Yeah, I know, 1200 calorie minimum, starvation mode, bla blah blah.
YOU guys have fun with that. We are NOT all the same, and that rule does NOT apply to everyone - no neat little dieting cubby-hole for us all.
So, I am eating VERY little, and,,,thanks to EFT and some mind/body thoughtfullness, I am LOVING it! I feel like I can really embrace the feeling of an empty-er stomach, I have lots of energy, and, though I haven't weighed myself in a long time before today, I am gonna start doing it regularly because I feel optimistic and ready to see real results. Nothing to hide from anymore.
And I am not always trying to stuff my stomach with as much low calorie food as will fit in my "caloric allowance" (I'm not counting calories, though I am aware of keeping my meals small), and when I need comfort, I take a bath or watch a movie or, mostly, do my EFT tapping. Then, I feel GREAT and lightweight - like a hummingbird.
