Obstacles

The mind sets up these barriers for reasons of security, safety, unconscious laws and beliefs.  In my case the barrier is dropping below a weight ending in zero.  The scale hovers at xxO, then up to xx1, then down to xxO, for weeks at a time.
Meanwhile I eat macaroni and cheese, chewy chocolate bars, and bake cookies all to keep me there hovering at the zero mark.  It happened ten pounds ago and is happening again.  It is weird the power of the unconscious mind, that unused 90%, that has a vested interest in the zero mark.  Above is okay, below is dangerous.
What would Freud say?
And how would D'Artagnan reply?
