I can relate a 100 percent. My entire dieting life has always been about the fastest way to get to the skinny door. I've never even gotten in the door, and now I've become so large I won't fit through the door:) How do I put down my burdensome load so I can get through the door. One step at a time, and I relearn each step slowly and thoroughly. And a painful, continuous lesson this is for me. Even with weight loss surgery I want it fast! I am starting to realize its a slow process intentionally so that I have the time to learn how to get through the door. Putting the groceries down or dropping the heavy burdens to open and walk through the door is really me being carefully mindful of healthier habits.
This weeks habits as I prepare for weight loss surgery.
1. Chop and chew my food/put my fork down between each bite.
2. Eat regularly planned healthy meals and snacks.
3. Try to choose higher protein foods.
