I am trying to slow down and take things one thing at a time. I find myself wanting everything right now and as a result that overwhelmed feeling is slowly creeping back. I believe that one thing I need try to work on is acceptance. I have found in the past that the sooner I let go of a troublesome issue and accept it, just that much sooner, I am able to find a solution to the problem and can then move on. I recently purchased a book called called “The Sugar Solution” wtitten by the authors of Prevention Magazine. I am not sure when I will find time to read it, but I have it. I guess I need to get to work. The sooner I can get that “to do” list under control, the sooner that nagging feeling of wanting to eat compulsively will begin to disappear.
