I am also going to repeat everyday my affirmation that my therapist gave me to say. "I am competent, capable and lovable." I know I am fighting a battle with myself, but I must improve myself talk to improve my health. Right now I need extra support of my friends and family and therapist to do this, but I am worth the effort, I have hit a place in my life where I am sick and tired of being sick and tired. I believe with God's help and the help of my friends, family and therapist I can become less depressed.
I realize I have an illness, but I can not let it control my entire life. I think I may have hit my rock bottom and the only way is up. I am not saying that this will be easy, but I chose to take an active part on my healing. Does this mean I will never slip? I don't think so! My abuse and illness can not control my life.
From today on I will
- Take my medicine as prescribed
- I will exercise 5 days a week
- I will record and follow my meal plan
- I will say my affirmation daily
- I will keep my therapy appointments
- I will say something I am thankful for daily
Today I am thankful for my daughter, my friends, my family,blogging, and that Jesus loves me.

I've heard it takes 28 times to break a habit.
You are awesome. God doesn't make junk. I would suggest you actually write down the things you are grateful for so that when you are down,.you can read through it. Peace.
Loving your outlook!!!! Will be praying for you... !
I heard up to 66 times, but there are a lot of lower figures too. Either way - you can do this! What a great list of goals. Go for it!
Good for you, Wanda! It sounds like you are taking control of your life.
But I do want to say that being obsessed with food and exercise is not a healthy obsession at all-- in fact it is quite dangerous. You don't want to trade in one disorder for another. And trust me, the food/exercise one sucks.
Wishing you well,
NOS
yeah Wanda!!!! Keep fighting one day at a time and before you know it...whomp..the habits will be formed.
