This past year has been something...a lot of new things happening...lot's of adjustments to my life...and the band has been there through each step..learning to live through things without turning to food and all that that entails has been a huge lesson in itself. I really need to think about that and how for the first time in 25 years I was not stuffing emotions down with food..this was a painful lesson, it meant that I had to sit through, feel, and deal with what was really going on..I have to say that each time I did this I got better at it and it got easier. Now on to the next steps for 2011..adding in activity to my life...this too is going to be difficult in many different ways but I just have to do it!
