I have made a decision for myself and that is to surrender my issues of food addiction to God and to my angels. I can no longer do this alone. I need help and I have asked them to lead me. I have been discussing my food issues with my husband lately. I was telling him that the hardest time of the day is after work. I have this view that I need to do something nice for myself after spending 8 hours at work dealing with the daily grind there. So I of course treat myself to all sorts of delectables, to the fill the need of rewarding myself for a day of work. (kind of like treating myself to a beer after a day of work.) My husband offered to have a smoothie waiting for me in the refrigerator for me , so that when I get home for work there will be something for me. I agreed to this and now each day this week there has been smoothie waiting for me. This has been very successful as I feel that I have a reason to go home immediately to drink this smoothie. Next week I will make my own smoothie. My food intake today was really healthy and satisfying. I didn't seem to be looking for something during the afternoon or evening. I find drinking plenty of water helps me too. Right now I am taking baby steps towards my goal of getting back to the food program I was once on... Something struck me today, which is "Just because I have a food thought, doesn't mean I have to act on it." Today when I had food thoughts, I asked my angels to be with me and to help me change the habit of eating whenever a thought struck my fancy. I know that my angels will help to the extent that I need help. I know they will be with me every step of the way. Getting off sugar, flour and wheat is a lot like getting off drugs or alcohol. I think i can get off the wheat and flour ok, its the sugar that is difficult. I have been off sugar for a day now, except for a can of gingerale. I feel pretty good and I am glad to have started once again on my recovery. So once again I am on my way to recovery and hoping that this time I will have surrendered my self will about what I think I need to eat at any particular time. Todays Prayer I ask that the angels who are around me always, that they continue to guide me in dealing with my food issues. I ask that they lead me to recovery and to also help me to recover this battle over food. I cannot continue to eat the way I have been eating. I ask that they surround me in light and keep me from the abuse of food that has been occuring the past year and a half. I fully surrender my self will to God and to you my angels. I thank you for the patience you have shown me and I want you to know the fight is over. I cannot continue to live way any longer. Thank you for all that you are and all that you do. Amen
