Craving or hunger?
All through the show I imagined what I would eat for lunch. I thought I had hunger pangs, so it was ok wasn’t it? Then the show is over and I prepare to eat. Only one problem, I’m no longer sure that I’m hungry.
Then it occurs to me; emotional show, tearful, moving show. Emotions. Hunger. Food.
So I’m having a glass of ice water to see if I’m really hungry. If the pangs intensify, it’s hunger. Why is this so hard? The first six weeks were so easy. Then bam. Everything goes to heck. In the old days, I’d be done losing in six weeks, easily. But I have to be in this for the long haul now. I have to be able to have my emotions and still use the 4 Golden Rules.
The fact that I’m drinking water and not stuffing down food is encouraging. Again it seems that the mind programming is working. In unexpected ways. This could work. I hope it works.
