We learned about cognitive behavioural therapy in weight loss class tonight. I should say that they learned, and I refreshed my memory. At first I let myself be transported right back to 2 years ago in my brain, and I got upset again about how I let things fall apart. Then I cbt'd myself and rationalized that I'm here now, and I'm not going to make that mistake again for reasons a, b, c. The only issue with CBT is that you have to believe the rational thought, and trust yourself to follow through. So what happens when you have proven that you are capable of lying to yourself? When it comes to food, I just can't trust me!
In better, more positive thinking news, I am down another 2 lbs. holding steady at 2 lbs lost per week. 14 gone, 86 to go. After that I only have to worry about not getting fat again the rest of my life. Now to CBT myself out of that thought.
