I'm up to 187.6.
It's funny (or not...really) how I tend to rely on comfort foods when I'm feeling uncomfortable. Not just physically, but emotionally. Why can't I be one of those people that wants to go for a walk to feel better instead of looking for love (or comfort)
I supposed it's because I've trained myself to be this way and I want to go back to the tried and true ways. These new ways have not become a habit yet and it will take willpower on my part to make sure I do what I need to do.
I'm thankful that I have this blog to let our some of my feelings and to somewhat hold myself accountable.
For today...I'm going to eat as little carbs as possible.
Food is a big "feel better" tool for me, too. And yesterday I caught myself giving Deuce a nibble of a brownie when he was upset... the cycle continues.
ReplyDeleteYou can do it, Connie. Those new habits are right there - kick the old ones to the curb!
ReplyDeleteI feel your pain...yesterday the kids were stressing me out and I turned to chocolate, not too much but some. And then I got the munchies and wanted anything and everything...thankfully I tried to fight and got away only having a handful of chips, and they were multigrain so totally allowed right? Yeah right
ReplyDeleteI really wish I would just go for a walk too. It's really hard to turn off my head when it is telling me to "eat, eat, eat".
ReplyDeleteHang in there - hopefully your dental woes will be behind you soon!
