    Beating the demons in my head

    Goodness, didn't realise how long I had been gone from here. Very busy with uni work as having a major paper due last week. I've been quite good as a few times this week I was asked did I want some treats from others and each time I said I would like some, but I wasn't going to take any. It felt...

    Beating the demons in my head

    I'm having a bit of a bad day today which is where I would normally eat to punish myself for feeling. Don't ask! I have been doing shopping today and I have managed not to buy any rubbish even though I was tempted quite a few times. Well done me for not picking rubbish or eating any rubbish...

    Beating the demons in my head

    I've known for a while bread and certain other carbs pile the weight on me. Thing is I love these things, but have managed to not buy any today even though I was really craving it. There is a show on tele that is coming on I believe Monday night with people trying out different diets and the...

    Beating the demons in my head

    So my partner was over for tea last night and I told him I couldn't eat anything else as I had used all my points. His response was 'not this again' as he hates that I am not flexible ie I don't use my weekly cheat points and if I reach my points for the day that's it. Wasn't really impressed as...

    Thank you and good luck to yourself. I'm sure we'll be able to do this and get to where we want to go. I do like planning which is why I CBT works well with me as I'm very cognitive oriented. I know the Beck's book will help keep me on track as well, easy read, and can easily make the...

    Beating the demons in my head

    My weight has fluctuated my entire life and I now know why. I've been diagnosed with a condition where eating is a form of punishment so I have to quiet the demons in my head in order to lose weight. So this is where the journey starts again, I've gained a stone since I've left therapy and I am...

    Muller light chocolate or caramel dessert

    I noticed these today in asda beside the muller greek yoghurts. They appear to be fat free (88cal) pots of chocolate, white chocolate, or caramel (could have been toffee) custard desserts. Anyone have any idea how many syns they are? Thinking they might be 0.5 or 1 per pot

    Extra Easy Stuck

    I was thinking you probably are allowed to have a cup of coffee or tea at your desk? If so why not make some superfree soup, put it in a thermos and when hungry stick it in your coffee mug? That way you are getting something to eat, it's free/superfree and it should keep you going for a bit.
