This last while I have learned some things about me. I feel like I have been able to come to grips with food. The choice about what to eat, when to eat, and how much to eat. That I really do have a choice of what I put into my body. Food really doesn't speak to me and say, "You have to eat me ". I can throw away the chips that the are put on the tray. I can leave the bread in the bread basket, and I can throw away half of a main course because the portion size is to big. I can also choose to have a piece of cake and still be on track. What I eat is up to me. I make the choice, and I have the consequence of the choice. I know this may sound a little crazy, but I feel empowered because I can now wrap my mind around it and make the choices count for me. I see it as a change in my relationship with food.

Lauril, you are doing so great! I totally relate to your comment about what you are learning and your relationship with food. Empowered is a perfect word for what I experienced with Weight Watchers too. I was thinking about that today when I was out shopping. I love how I feel, and I'm very happy with how I look, which I've never said before. Losing weight is a huge effort, and when you learn those concepts that make it possible, it feels like a miracle, at least to me. You are an inspiration. Good job!
