[quote=Anonymous]OP here, checking in. Thank you all so much for your help and concern. I will definitely check out the Beck forum - I had no idea it existed! Today I'm working on "Sit Down When You Eat." :-)

I am using the lose it app and will also check out my fitness pal.

Exercise: Yes, well, I will definitely reconsider. Today I got to leave work early and hit the mall for gifts for Toys for Tots - before I bought them I made sure to walk an extra trip down and back (and if you google the Albrook Mall in Panama City you will see how long that is! :-)) I know it's not "real" exercise but it's better than I would have done last week! I will see if I can commit to working out twice a week (don't tell anyone but there's actually a small gym next door to my house. Literally next door.)

Yes, the diet is limiting and restrictive but right now that's what I need. If I start to chafe, I will make some swaps and see how that goes, but for me food is absolutely an addition. Since there's no way to "abstain" from eating in the true sense, this diet is what I use to try to keep food from being a constant obsession in my life. PP, the problem is that "what I like" is, not exaggerating, to eat until I feel like bursting. What I like is any food in enormous quantities. I can binge on carrots, no problem. And then I still feel bummed I couldn't eat more. It's sick, honestly, and I'm trying to change my way of thinking this time instead of just losing pounds.

I am bookmarking this thread for sure and feeling thankful that strangers took the time to reach out to me. I am grateful. I really appreciate the kind words and the support.[/quote]
