My personal war with Fat Globules errrrr

ERRR.... I  have declared war on the fat globules that have set up house keeping through out my body!


 


I hate that word Diet because that means that my brain has to declare war on my body. When I know I have to go on a diet I eat more. My body goes into this panic when it knows I am not going to feed it as often as what I did the day before..... so it rebels by trying to stock up on as many fat globules it can cram or stuff in its mouth to sustain it until I give up and start feeding it again.


 


To me a diet is a mental war between Me and my body. Every chance my body gets it tries to convince my brain it needs food. What is up with that? When and where did my body get so much control over my brain? More importantly, when did my brain get so weak?  


 


As the months go by the more I am thinking there must be a third person involved in this fat globule war I declared on my body because I am having a real hard time loosing the next 10 pounds.  So I racked my brain and tipped it upside down looking for the culprit that is trying to make me eat like there is no tomorrow so I will feel good again. And low and behold my inner child popped it’s head out and told me that it was wounded so it needed all the fat globules it could get it’s hands on to make it all better... errr... Amazing it never occurred to me until now that damage was done when I put my inner child through 2 family horrible deaths, a couple of life threatening health problems, a cancer scare, teeth problems, and remodel hell. Humm... I am disappointed with Me for letting the damage done get so out of hand and pile up like this.


 


Okay who has the tools to heal a broken heart a.k.a. inner child?  I think if I can mend the wounds then maybe just maybe I will be able to get the next 10 pounds off and move on.


 


I know now that if I am going to loose the next ten pounds then I am going to have to find a way to turn off and rebut my body again so it can move on to happier times. Then after that I will figure out how I going to keep my body in check.


 


Help! I am stuck here in diet hell!

Hi Lei


Well sorry I have no answer for your inner child except to tell you that it is very hard sometimes to give up those hurts that happenned when we were so young. Dieting is so hard and loosing weight sometime seems impossible especially when we are older.


Good luck I sure hope you find the answers you seek.

Hey inner child...run around the block ten times yelling I'm crazy, I'm crazy. By the time you get back the 10 lbs will be gone and inner child will be too exhausted to struggle:) Kidding aside, past hurts can really affect our well being. The one thing I keep telling myself is they are PAST hurts and I survived. When I rationalize it in this way I regain my perspective making it easier to go on. Wishing you luck with your struggle.

It's amazing to me how many ways we can sabotage ourselves from doing something that we want to get done (lose weight). I had no idea really how many times I rewarded myself for a job well done or

Lei,


My fat globules and inner child have become really close friends. Who am I to break up a great friendship? That is my slant on the situation and sticking to it.


Good luck in your personal war. Just be easy with that inner child. They can have tantrums when they don't get what they desire.


Hugs,
