Changing your habits is hard. I have realized the past two days that I snacked a lot at work. A lot. I find that when I am bored I tend to eat. Yesterday was hard. By 10:30am my first appointment had not showed up (big shock) and I was realizing that I had nothing to do for rest of the day. The phones weren't ringing so there were no phone calls to take. You can only surf the net so long before you before bored. It took a lot of inner strength not to go get something to munch on.
I've been thinking about my eating habits and how I got to this point in my life that the way I've been eating is really affecting my health in a negative way. One of my very first memories is when I cracked my chin open. I was about 3 and was at my cousins house. I remember being held in the garage after I cracked my chin open and someone offering me a Popsicle to console me. Is this where it all started? Is this when I realized that food can be comforting? If I could go back to that moment and remember my parents consoling me with hugs and kisses instead of food I would.
I have been thinking about all the changes that I am doing in my life and I am thinking about changing the address for my blog. About six months ago I changed the title of my blog from "Ex-Jehovah's Witness and Gay" to "After the Fact". I am now thinking of changing my address completely because I am tired of being associated as an ex-JW. It's time to move on. I have thought of a few address and one is carolineinthecity.blogspot.com What do you think?? I am Caroline and I live in Kansas CITY. I am open to any ideas for a new address. Let me know what your ideas are or if you like Caroline in the City.

Oooh, I like that! I know what you mean, just the fact that you no longer want to be identified as an ex-JW is further proof that you really are a happier, new person.

That's a good name! And mark this day on your calendar . . . this is the first day of YOUR OWN LIFE. Up till now you've been somewhat controlled, limited pperhaps, by that title. Congratulations!

I absofreakinlutely LOVE the title! It's kind of like getting a new pair of shoes (yes, I can probably use shoes for any analogy). The old ones fit and felt comfy for a while, then they got worn down, and just didn't feel right. The new ones fit and were much more YOU. Go for it!
