    I know this is going to sound really childish for a 35 year old woman to say but.....
    I'm so glad I didn't eat my feelings when my brother hurt my feelings today.

    Seems like my emotional eating is the number 1 cause for gaining 30lbs in the last year alone and today on day 3 of starting over I managed to just handle being upset and not grabbing a box of cookies or king sized bag of chips. Stupid sounding accomplishment I know but every day counts right?

    That's an amazing accomplishment! One that you ought to be proud of yourself for! Personally, I had to go away to a treatment center, which took a lot of patience and practice, to learn the lesson that you're learning right now. Emotional eating was a part of my ED, so I know that is definitely NOT an easy task to learn healthy coping mechanisms, and to actually live them out in the moment.

    Again, Amazing job!!

    I'm excited I was able to sneak in a workout, in the last 30 minutes, before the gym closed!! I made the most of my time, working on "homework" that my trainer gave me.... I felt like this was the best 30 minute workout I've ever had!
