After breakfast we met with a few friends for a park playdate... Leaving the house is hard for me. Seeing all the signs, hearing the commercials over the radio; there are lots of temptations. I had to keep telling myself " just make it to the park, just commit to not stopping to get anything on your way to the park.". And I did it. I made it to the park. I was able to be present and not thinking about my next "fix/binge". The weather was nice and I was able to enjoy myself. Leaving to return home was rough. We were all hungry, the boys were cranky, and all that fast food was tempting! I said to myself, again " Commit to not stopping to get any food until on your way home.". That really seems to be the way to "win" these small battles. Making small commitments.
