I've been trying to be particularly analytical about all my thoughts about weight loss, to get the most from the counselling.
Today, I was thinking about why I like weigh in day so much. There's obviously the prospect of losing weight, and meeting the group again, but it's more than that. It's because I know getting through today will be easy, its a given because I want to get to the scales.
Makes sense, but does that then mean I'm not sure I'll make it through on other days? I think deep down it does. I think, in the back of my mind, I lack confidence (even though I've made it to day 17) and think that I'll throw this off and binge, either when the going gets tough or when I reach goal weight.
How do I get round this? I'd really appreciate your thoughts on how I can turn this thinking around.
