It is probably obvious that many of us on Minimins have an unhealthy relationship with food that we are trying to untangle or have been successful in untangling.
I've noticed of myself in the last few years that I seem to fall into a cycle. I do struggle to lose weight (currently looking into PCOS with my GP) and gain it really easily. I can have weeks of being good and maintain rather than lose weight and that has been with other diets too.
Out of the blue last week I lost 6lbs after relaxing things up on the diet having stayed the same for weeks and I was rather chuffed to say the least. Since then I have just not been in the zone at all... I've had mince pies, stollen etc and if its been offered I seem to have banned my ability to say no - about the only thing I have stuck to is my no milk!
I also do a similar thing with my nails .. I spot that they have grown and look nice, the next minute I have bitten most of them off!
Am I alone in this oddness of self abuse or does anyone have similar experiences and it is it something that you have managed to just work through?
