One of my favorite feelings is pride.  It feels so good.  For me, it is often hard won.  On my recovery journey, here’s how it manifests:

I follow my food plan today – I feel proud.

I make it through a day of pms without bingeing – pride.

I experience a slip and choose not to throw the day away and eat allllll the food – pride.

I eat and eat and eat….and then I stop midway through a binge – pride.

I let myself experience boredom and restlessness rather than plugging those with food – pride.

I’m socially anxious at the table and choose to feel that rather than eat – pride.

I experience the sadness about a break up and don’t eat over it – pride.

The feeling of pride often comes after accomplishing something that feels a bit challenging or uncomfortable.  It is SO worth it.

I create and experience feeling proud in little and big ways daily – will you join me?

Coach with me and finally ditch your binge eating habit so that you can live with a clear mind and become more at ease in your skin.  So that you can move around freely in the world – physically and psychologically.  So that you can be unencumbered by the burden of always wondering what, when, and how much to eat – the mental obsession that never ends.  And so that you can feel that PRIDE.  That, my friends, is the best feeling ever.
