Ms. Luck's Journal, 19 Apr 07

Ten days in and all is well. I am really working hard on my new mindset about what food is for. Food is not for comforting emotions and not for a passing time but it is for fuel and nutrition to the body and brain. Its okay to feel a hunger pang then eat something to satisfy it. In the past I have eaten so much and so often that I wasn't sure what a hunger pang felt like. In the past couple of days I have been taking pride in my newfound hunger pangs and when I eat some veggies, fruit or rice and the pangs disappear I am marveled. I am not going to give up and throw in the towel because this is just the beginning of new discoveries of my body and soul. Oh...did I say I love brown rice.
