Can't think of a title
I'm a bit worried . Pre-CD I would spend all my time obsessing over (and eating!) food - my life would literally revolve around it whether it be eating for comfort, relieving boredom or just for the sheer pleasure of it.
I've been pleased and surprised at how I've adapted without my usual coping mechanism for life until I realised that I've simply replaced one obsession with another - I now spend most of my waking moments calculating what weight I'll be by such-and-such a date, what I'll be wearing at Christmas, spending loads of time on Minimins etc etc.
What I'm worried about is when I reach goal will I simply turn to food again to distract me from everyday life? My hobbies (and I've tried a few) have never been enough to keep me away from food and stop me yo yo-ing! How do other people cope?
