Choosing The Solution

I gratefully DENW and love to have a beginning & end to my wonderful meals, and know that there is always another meal coming and I can do life in between, talk to HP, go to a movie, be present at my job (a very good thing since I work in an operating room!  I get to wear the same size clothes, I do yoga, and pilates and have started walking.......up to 2 miles in less than an hour, and my passion for NMW keeps increasing, because there is Always a solution in GS if I am willing to choose that solution.

I believe my HP gives me the gift of that first choice.  That gift is graciously given to me each day it is there.

I believe that My HP was /and is always there.  Looking back on all my relapses, I always had those "split" minutes of "God Shots" that allowed me to turn away from the food and continue, I chose the food.

I can even remember on many occasions ----saying F---k God I am taking the food and You can't stop me!

Scared, tired, whatever.....I took that gift and started to do what you guys do even before I felt spiritual, loving, happy, any of those positive feelings.  The Old timers said "if you w&m, go to meetings, DENW, and pick up that 500# phone you will be different."  I simply had to "act my way" into those feelings.

Thanks for listening
