Your list of things that willpower can lead to is helpful to see. I'm reflecting on it right now. :) With that said, you do have amazing willpower even if you don't realize it. :)financecupcakehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03781586611582887524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308288649463011906.post-10930656708107515902010-05-05T07:09:52.998-07:002010-05-05T07:09:52.998-07:00I think everything you say in this post is right o...I think everything you say in this post is right on target!! So many of us DO rely on willpower, and when we fail, we take it as a failure as a human being. "I must not be strong enough, I must not be good enough" that sort of thinking. Great, great post...and something I think all of us need to remember while we are on this journey, no matter WHERE we are on this journey.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308288649463011906.post-48246486232173235172010-05-05T06:25:02.746-07:002010-05-05T06:25:02.746-07:00Love the post! :o)Love the post! :o)Patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16237128259799260713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308288649463011906.post-31122340979191693812010-05-05T02:26:24.865-07:002010-05-05T02:26:24.865-07:00GREAT post, Loretta.

I really liked we "are no different than those that are just starting... we just figured out what works for us."<br /><br />I think that's the hardest part for some...finding out what works for them. Once I figured it out, it's gotten so much easier. Also, being consistent. It has to be a way of life, not just another diet!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13711223895089633241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308288649463011906.post-11114868862234803192010-05-04T12:30:22.923-07:002010-05-04T12:30:22.923-07:00Loved the poionters.

I've been whipping up strawberried and bananas in my food processor to replace ice cream. I would only have to add one thing to your list--prayer. <br /><br />Actually, for me, that "I want to binge." prayer looks more like flinging myself into the Father's lap and holding on--until He quenches my desire to eat. <br /><br />When I don't do that, I binge. Then I hold onto Him for a different reason, in a different way. I like the first way best. :) <br /><br />Thanks for that list. I nodded all the way thru it. It was an excellent refresher course. I think I'm going to reread it now. !<br /><br />DebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-308288649463011906.post-56901332397882242162010-05-04T11:57:15.069-07:002010-05-04T11:57:15.069-07:00I'm with ya---my willpower flies out the door ...I'm with ya---my willpower flies out the door often.
