I feel a little reluctant to let go of the guilt that I associate with food. Today I went to get a packet of little cakes as DD has a bad cold and I thought I would treat her to some... ok, and me! Automatically I also thought I should get crisps and some chocolate bars as well, since I was being "naughty" anyway. But I had to check myself and realise that I can have some cakes and not succumb to buying everything else I even remotely felt like. Now, unfortunately, I have polished off the rest fo teh cakes whilst DD has been asleep. But at least I didn't buy all that other food as well. And at least I have some healthy food ready for dinner: salmon and asparagus. Old habits die hard and I need to face the fact that I must stop promising myself that I can eat what I want today because I will be perfect tomorrow, as it just doesn't work. I need to stop believing those lies and start living my life and enjoying food instead of abusing it.
