This is my online journal of Recovery from Compulsive Overeating.  This blog is a personal tool and is in no way affiliated with any established recovery group.
          This post is being made at 3:26 am on Monday, 5 June.  I am beat up and sore from the weekend's 24 hour walk (83 miles; a "median" type result for me).
Of course, I bore the burden of those 10 extra pounds or so; it will take time for these to come off.
No, I am not  doing the compulsive weight reduction diet type thing, but I also know that regaining 130-135 pounds starts with gaining the first 10.
How else did food factor in?  Well, at 12:38 (tweleve hours, 38 minutes) I was at 50 miles and ate one slice of pizza for my meal (every 4 hours).  I decided to eat a second slice 38 minutes later (I give myself 1 hour to finish my meal).  The second slice was a disaster as it didn't digest; it made me sick.
The first slice really worked as the fat in it helped me pick up the pace.  But pizza is hard to digest, especially when I am working hard for a sustained period. 
So, this was the old "if one is great, two is even better" type of thinking.
The good news is that I didn't quit and 4 hours later (after not being able to hold anything; not even water) my last "meal" perked me right up.
