Really Starting Over

Hi Everyone-
I think I am back.
I hope so anyway.
I am at a high weight which I have not seen the likes of in many years. Two hundred and eleven pounds....last check. YIKES!
It's okay though...I feel as hausfrau I as ever possibly could. But I am sick of myself, sick of my reflection-and just really want to change and understand that it's not going to happen just by thinking about it.
I also used to really staunch my weight (gain) with compulsive exercise, ...

It's okay though...I feel as hausfrau I as ever possibly could. But I am sick of myself, sick of my reflection-and just really want to change and understand that it's not going to happen just by thinking about it.
I also used to really staunch my weight (gain) with compulsive exercise, which, because of a recurring back injury-has become impossible. I am at a place where I don't even want to walk, I don't want to do anything. So many things have been changing in my life and I really want to be fit and feel good. I feel like I have spent a good amount of time allowing my eating free reign. And like any addict the time has come to intervene. I quit eating sugar four days ago in a moment of surrender. Once again it's become apparent how completely it rules me. If I don't eat it, I don't binge on it...go figure.
My goal is of course to get into a bikini...always has been, always will be... but more than that, I want to be fit, strong, healthy and lean. Leaner. You know what I mean. I'm hoping Spark will help me get there!

My Goals:
I want to have a strong and healthy eating base that is binge/and mostly-sugar free. My new goal is to end eating as an emotional salve and have good balanced baseline eating habits.


I want to be a normal eater. Be recovered from my eating disorder, heal my body image, and love myself. Be happy and healthy.

My Program:
Figure out how to eat normally without binging.
Workout 4-5 hours a week.
Exercise with a healthy attitude and not to compensate for excesses.

My name is Cindy and I am 48 years old and live in Portland Oregon. I have been overweight my whole life, and would really like to figure out how to be a normal eater.

Other Information:
I am living my life in joy and acceptance, doing what makes me happy. I will move freely and energetically throughout each day.

Regarding excessive thoughts, yeah, they do go on and on. I finally accepted my diagnosis of anxiety and forgive myself to some degree but it's still hard to take. I can get worked up by so many things! Working in education, I feel like I am up against a wall of all of society's problems every day. And my own ones, too. From my Eastern philosophy studies, I'd say it's more of learning to observe the thoughts as phenomena rather than anything with meaning, but that is no picnic.

Have you ever read the book My Stroke of Insight? It's about a brain researcher who has a stroke and experiences what it is like to live from the right brain. It took her seven years to recover. Some of the recovery I think I would have left out.
