Well, with sobriety comes action. I am doing things that I have put off, that I have wanted to do, what I haven't wanted to do but needed to do. Which brings me to the big eating change I am going through. It is no longer in vogue to say "diet" because we all know that diets don't work. I am doing the Isagenix "cleanse" to lose weight but it isn't a diet its a lifestyle. Anyway, I like it because the shakes taste good, I can eat a healthy dinner and I know exactly how many calories I am eating. The only down side is that there is a two day cleanse every two weeks. I am HUNGRY! The good news is that I haven't given a thought to alcohol, but food, oh sweet carbs and food......heavy sigh.
My sobriety is good. I feel my life changing in positive ways already. I am not good with deprivation. I am not good with no, but I am happy that the deprivation I am feeling today is food deprivation. Although not that happy.....because I want to eat. More tomorrow (maybe). I will be on day two of my two day "super cleanse" tomorrow. I may be very cranky. But lighter hopefully, but cranky nonetheless.
I'm struggling with the food thing too. It was easier to be sober when I was eating everything in sight but I could not let that continue! Glad you are doing well!
ReplyDeleteIts part of my madness as well.
