well, yesterday was not very good eating wise, but it was a pretty happy day for the most part. i went for a brisk 30 minute walk in the morning and it was really nice. it was my favourite time of day, i got to see gorgeous views of the ocean (pictures posted on profile) and got to say hello to some of my neighbours. that made me feel happy.

on friday i went shopping and bought some clothes, and i was not feeling good about my purchases, so i took them back. something was haunting and hanging over me for the fact that i bought new clothes because the old ones were to small. i'm not allowing myself to do this. if i look like a sausage in my clothes it's my fault. i'm not going to reward myself with new clothes. so i took the back yesterday.

when i was at the mall, i decided to get about a foot of hair chopped off. it was not a rash decision, and i feel like it is alot more fun and flirty (pictures posted on profile). i think it looks cute, and makes he head feel alot lighter. at least something is lighter, so it's a start ha ha.

my eating yesterday was pretty out of control, but from a happiness standpoint i felt pretty good until after my binge last night. i really tried hard to make an effort to feel better about myself for the most part.

the problem with binge eating, however, is that no matter what extreme of moods i'm in, i eat. so yesterday i was happy... so i ate. ah well, it's better than weeping while shoving the fries in, so i guess it's a start.

today i am going to do a major clean of my house, go for a nice walk, and do some writing... my main focus is happiness and not binging. it's all about the baby steps...:smile:
