Hi, well today is my 2nd day on RtM (salmon last nigt and it was yummy!) so I thought I'd start doing some homework and listen to the CD that I was given for this part of the programme.
There were some good points later on in the recording, but the first part was the Crisp Story and it's made me quite angry.
Please correct me if I'm wrong, but the gist of the story seemed to be that because the lady gave in to 1 crisp, which turned into a few more, it then followed that she got depressed, put all her weight back on and then got ill with diabetes or whatever.
This just doesn't seem like the right kind of message to me - isn't the point of maintaining your weight that you will sometimes eat food that is full of fat / sugar, but that as long as you don't go over the top or do it all the time and generally eat healthily, you'll be ok...? ! ?
The thing I have liked about this programme is that my mentally has changed - when I've had a lapse, I've not thought 'oh well, that's it, I've failed, might as well eat what I want and stay fat', but this story seems to be going back to the all or nothing mindset again...
Has anyone else read / listened to this?
