For me it was that moment when I was getting out of the shower, trying to get ready to take the kids to the school for an ice cream social to meet their teachers for the first time. New teachers, new school, first impression type of a day, and I'm dripping wet, with only a few minutes to spare and NOTHING to wear that isn't bursting at the seams.
I hate getting dressed!!!
Anyway, I felt like crap, argh! And there was nothing I can even really do about it... I still must drag my insecure butt out the door.
The past few days I've felt pretty fine avoiding everything that doesn't meet boot camp standards, but what do you know, 40 mins later, bulging out of my jeans, suddenly a stupid ice cream sandwich seems irresistible...
I resisted the urge, and you know once I told myself "NO!" and walked away from the box with the boys eating theirs, the feeling really faded.
It is just interesting, I know very well that my eating issues are 90% mental (emotional I should say). But still in that moment, feeling overwhelmed and totally like crap about myself, it really does feel like an ice cream is the only answer...
