Day 4 almost gone

Today has been good. I am not real hungry today.
I am however, really tired of eating the same thing. I am needed a new flavor. I made lots of individual meals for myself to eat off of this week. I think I need to freeze some of them and make something new. I have had it with the rice, bean and vege mixture.

8:00 am - Oatmeal with banana and mixed it with yogurt (hoping to get it a little sweet), skim milk
11:00 am - Yogurt, Apple
2:00 pm - Vege, rice and beans
5:00 pm - the rest of the veges rice and beans and a few grapes

I am feeling good about all of this. I feel like I can do it. I don't want to give up and I don't want to cheat. I love what Dr. Ian says - you are only cheating yourself.
I think it helps that I am writing out my daily intake on here, because it would be worse to me to let other people know that I cheated!! It is that whole perfectionism thing.

I had a really great spiritual time last night with God. He is so good to me.
I felt like he really held me and said you know what I have got you and it is all going to be ok. You don't have to worry or try to fix everything. I am in control. I really feel peaceful about it.
I love what happens to my spiritual life when I get my eating under control. I do feel more able to go to God. I feel like such a better person all around. I know that may sound weird to anyone who does not have eating issues. All my emotions are pretty much tied up with food. Hopefully no longer!!!!
