    4/29/08 10am Right now I feel tired, content, safe, hopeful, cute, competent, satisfied, and loved. I am looking foreward to going home and having an enjoyable, restful, abstinent day and night. That is my plan.

    been working step 4 ------ it has been an interesting experience. lots of old memories and emotions are shaking loose. sometimes i choose to stay in them, it is 'exquisite'. but then, when i come out of it, i am spent. i have come to realize that i need to let go of the experience2, hand them over to higher power,and fill those empty spaces with grace. this is my plan. have an abstinent day.

    I'm starting my steps over after my relapse, at one, and will be forwarding my thoughts on each step via email to my sponsor. There are so many times I want to hide in food so I don't have to feel the fearpaininsecurityuncertainty, and then I know I'm on shaky ground. I don't always get through the swamp without getting muddy. I clean myself off, and keep going my abstinent way with the help of the tools and my sponsor and HP. Thanks.

    Right now I feel fresh as I just had a bath and I like the way I look. I am wearing a cute little black and white top with a solid black top under it, a black skirt, black leggings and black shoes. I can say I like the way I look today, especially when I think back 26+ years ago when I used to wear brogan shoes, male pants because the female ones were not big enough, and a stocking cap on my head as I could take a bath and put on clean clothes but by the time I got to my hair, I had run out of energy.

    I wore that old stocking cap and tobaggan pulled down on my head until one night at an AA meeting an old timer said, "Don't you come in here tomorrow night with that stocking cap on your head. You comb your hair." I wonder how many people in OA would have loved me enough to have told me the same thing.

    I want some plaiantanos but just because I do is not a reason for me to change what I planned to eat. I can visualize them, I can taste them, and all that is ok. I don't have to give in. The right thing to do is to go warm up my planned meal, eat it, and retire for the night and that my friend is what I am going to do.

    Today was definitely a day when I would have run to the comfort food. Now that I am abstinent, I ate according to my food plan, called my sponsor and did some journaling. All of the above got me through and was so much more therapeutic than a binge.
