Today I will

[LaurieG]

Okay. I'm hoping to offer something more positive to this forum than I've done lately. This thread is about support and accountability for our intentions.

Here's mine for today:

This morning I weighed in at 103 lbs. I will not have a day that I weigh 102. So, today I will eat 2500 calories before I can go to bed. I will do this without breaking my food restrictions.

Anyone else want to join me? What is your intention for tomorrow?

Good luck, Laurie.

Tomorrow, I will make a batch of Kathy's buckwheat pancakes and freeze them.

I will eat a safe fruit or vegetable at every meal.

Today, I did figure out a recipe for gluten free (allergen free) oatmeal currant cookie! It made me so happy to eat a yummy cookie that I made myself! It was way better than the ones at the gluten free bakery! I will post the recipe in the recipes sticky tomorrow...
Tomorrow I will maintain a positive atitude.

today I will NOT consume DAIRY (I'm still struggling and DD is paying for it with a NOTHER ear infection)--I WILL NOT have ANY!!!

( I finally got money tonight to go and get us food so it will be easier to EAT)

Today I will not let the sugar/yeast monster win! I will not partake! Today I will make sure I have a nice big breakfast- it always makes the day go better! Today I will relax w/ the kids and take time not to think about what is wrong!

Good luck to everyone today. I know you can all do it.

Here's my update: Yesterday I did it. I was stuffed, but I got in 2500 cals. This morning I weighed in at 105!!

Today I will do it again. It will be trickier today b/c we're almost out of food in the house and we don't have any $ for groceries, but I will figure it out. After I've done it every day until I weigh 113 I will consider eliminating some other foods to get to a better baseline, but not before.

Today I will settle on a birthday cake recipe and I will make a point of getting as much food into dd as she will willingly eat.

I will focus on what is positive today. Instead on feeling sorry for myself and wondering why my life isn't easy like so many of my friends....I will just sit back, eat my gluten/dairy/corn/egg free food with a huge smile on my face. I was thinking last night while up at 3 AM....I need to start thinking positive thoughts....maybe that will help?

Maybe I will even cover up the my oh so lovely eczema arms and neck and venture out of the house. What a day this will be!!

Hi,

Can I make a suggestion? Frame your stuff in a positive light. Focus on what you want, rather than what you don't want. Leave "not" out. What you focus on is whatb you get so when you say you will not do x, you're still giving energy to x. Try to say "I'll do y today". Laurie did it well.

Today I will take my supplements & help heal my gut!

Today I will eat healthy food and lots of it, and drink lots of water, and remember to take all my supplements (speaking of which...).

The power of positive thinking. I wrote this, then walked upstairs, ate 1/4 c. of saurkraut, took my Abx support probiotic, and filled a bowl with Nutty Flax, walnuts, and coconut milk yogurt that I'm eating now. It works!!
