Thanks to all you guys who commented over the diary thing... I'm glad it's not just me that finds the thought of it daunting. I am doing ok with it - making myself do it - but it leads to a high use of tissues.
The worst part about it is that the requirement goes up each session. So on Monday they said - ok, now along with that monitoring, we're going to require you to eat 5 meals at day, at around the same time each day, with nothing in between. Just writing that sentance down makes my hands feel shaky... it's all about control, I guess. They have such a long waiting list that they really don't screw around - if you don't work with it and put in the effort, you're outta there.
I have therapy in an hour. The thing about constantly having a diary with you to record all your food and actions and reactions is that you always have a place to write down those "hmmm, I should take that to therapy" things. And I found this really neat pen that retracts so that it is small enough for a jeans pocket but extends to full length for writing with. Yay pen. Small comforts, you know? :)

If you want, I could send you a NASA space pen then you could have two cool pens ;)
Hugs for hanging in there and good luck for therapy. Love!

HUGS!
Neat! I have a pen that does that and IS a NASA space pen. They rock so much. I got it for my 21st and always keep it in my purse so that I always have a pen... that works in space!
Also awesome diary action!
