intermittent reinforcement

 Hey all - 

Last night I was craving something sweet so bad. I am still on the beginning dose of Zepbound 2.5. I move up to 5 on Wednesday & it is definitely time to increase my dose.

I got through the craving by repeating 2 words -intermittent reinforcement-. For the significance of these words & how they helped me I refer you to Susan Pierce Thompsons Vlogpost on this subject; 


I got through the craving thanks to those words.

And then I slept for 8 hours which is 2 more than my usual & woke up feeling good.
