Therapy with Dr. Anderson

Today I saw Dr. Anderson. We discussed my issue with food. I have a terrible relationship with it, I treat it as a lower priority, I eat when I feel like it, and by that time I am so hungry I overeat. So Dr. Anderson gave me homework. I am setting my alarms for 7 am, 10 am, 1 pm, 4 pm and 7 pm. Those are my appointments to eat. Just the same way you make appointments to go to the Doctor or go on a date. Food is to be come such a priority that I do it, I don't think about it. I eat food so that I have energy and so that my body can be fueled...PERIOD. No emotions involved.

He asked asked me to journal what I eat when I eat, and other times in between when I feel hungry. I am to journal what triggered my hunger. Although I am also keeping track with my weight watchers, I plan to do it on my blog as well.

Hi Erin! I was happy to see your blog today. I somehow got bumped off of it when you were private and haven't been able to look at it. I hope you are all doing well! It sounds like you have had a busy year!!!
