I can totally relate in it being hard to put yourself out there, to show people the real you and actually be honest with how you're feeling. I myself tend to keep myself guarded a little too much, I think. It's so nice to see that you've mostly gotten over that and you no longer hide yourself from the world. :)screwdestinyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00777895976599010393noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-81951043772969762092009-10-02T15:09:24.407-07:002009-10-02T15:09:24.407-07:00Leslie I missed this post I am so sorry .

But I just happened to ask her take on the secret thing. And since you mentioned it - I thought you might like to read it.<br /><br />If you don't read other people's blog comments - I mentioned to her that I just read that when you make something a secret - the power all goes to the secret and when you don't make something a secret and you own it - you empower yourself.Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452333714845476967noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-6796613457519701532009-10-01T20:19:44.070-07:002009-10-01T20:19:44.070-07:00we all screw up - perfection isn't the absence...we all screw up - perfection isn't the absence of flaws it's merely the continual movement toward our goals.

I agree with you that if you don't put it out there it eats you up, because then you now have the emotional part of feeling like a hypocrite by saying one thing and feeling a total way. Those emotions are so destructive! A small binge is better than a big binge, not as good as no binge at all, but still more control than it could have been! Keep going, and keep truth telling!Jodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15630336513125354615noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-43217050639068202392009-10-01T18:32:24.400-07:002009-10-01T18:32:24.400-07:00Sweet Leslie...thank you so much for putting this ...Sweet Leslie...thank you so much for putting this out there. Thank God for AA and weight loss blogging! I'm sure you learned TONS in AA that has helped you in all other aspects of your life, and this one is no different. That's what's so great about this blogging thing, too....the accountability. When you talk about it out loud, it makes it harder to make the wrong choice the next time, because you know you're going to tell everyone!! What you did shows courage, and determination to get it right. I will always offer you my support, listerning ear, shoulder to cry on, and open arms throughout your journey....and beyond!! You've got a friend in me. :)Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903038555489140718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9172726268459163555.post-1918653503429834092009-10-01T17:37:09.981-07:002009-10-01T17:37:09.981-07:00Dear Leslie, well done for not getting on the scal...Dear Leslie, well done for not getting on the scale. You know that I (and all your friends in blogland) will never think any less of you for eating too much just as you would never think any less anyone else for doing that. In fact I think you are pretty amazing to carry on battling this thing as you do and in such an open and honest way. <br /><br />I completely relate to the one wrong move syndrome - what a good name for it. I've lived my whole life expecting to be rejected. <br /><br />I've had a good food day myself but during the late afternoon I was hungry and considered going to the convenience shop and buying food I shouldn't be eating but I didn't do it because I didn't want to have to write on my blog that I had binged yet again. It would just make me feel so miserable to have to do that. So accountability does work. <br /><br />Hope you are having a good day today. <br /><br />Best wishes,<br />Bearfriend xxFriend of the Bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01338137165061207438noreply@blogger.com
