I have decided

to tell myself, that there is no such thing as " I have no control" cause I do. I have total control over what goes in my mouth. I think of it as a self control muscle. It needs to get strong and it needs to grow. And the more I work that muscle, by eating healthy, saying NO to things that are not healthy for my body the stronger it gets. Like any muscle it will get big and stong. Thus, making me big and strong..

Self talk is critical. Check out the book the Thin Commandments. Really hits home. Lots of good reviews here at LCF

Good luck...you have the power.

Great post Stephanie! You're so right about the "self-control muscle". So much of what we tell ourselves becomes our reality.
