Hey fellow keto-ers! Not able to join the accountability challenge because I have work travel that conflicts with the meetings, but thank you all for inspiring me! I started again around the end of August and committed to 30 days of posting, listening to low carb podcasts, committing daily, and staying on track. I made it through the 30 days and am still on track but I have a question I need help figuring out. Most of my life is in great shape right now. I have great discipline and work ethic at work, having great success at work, great supportive relationships with coworkers and friends, good discipline with bills and money, but when it comes to my physical self, I’m so critical and disgusted and have no sense of control. I’m barely able to stay somewhat on track with eating very low carbs. Every day I fight myself and even if I win the fight, it doesn’t feel like a win. It feels like a draw. And starts over again the next day. My question: any suggestions on how to reframe my mindset about myself so I can feel better about the work, the win, and that it’s worth it? I don’t want to stay obese but I’m once again millions of miles from the goal and it’s so hard to not give in to the drug that is everywhere and it feels like everyone else can have. Thanks for any suggestions!
