I totally get you RATPAT - if my kids are home and they leave ice cream I put garbage in the container and then throw it away. If I have a pizza in the house I have to eat what a portion is and throw away the rest which kills me because there are so many that don't have. What I do now if buy grocery just for a couple foo…

You are so right on with what you said and I for sure want a place to say "I hate the whole thing" - It does help.

The worse thing we…

We are all doing it! Step by step - Great idea about a prayer . What if we say something like this Father your word says "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." I am weak Lord and I need to feel your grace all over me today so I can break these chains that bind me in relation to food"
