    @imgwendolyn2015 and @Beka3695 I was just recommended the book Feeding the Hungry Heart. I haven't read it yet, but am going to download the audio book. The person who told me about it said it was really good for emotional/stress eating.

    That looks like an excellent read!

    @imgwendolyn2015 @beka3695 emotional eating is so hard to manage. Hope you’re both okay and stresses aren’t too bad ❤️

    I just got a notification on mfp that today is my anniversary of joining NINE YEARS AGO. That feels so disheartening. In that time I’ve got to below 195 twice and back up to over 250 countless more. Weight loss is so tough 😩 here’s to getting back to onederland in 2021 though!

    @ShowKitten I just got one for my six-year anniversary! We’re in the same boat...

    @Beka3695 could you please roll my previous weigh in for last Sunday?

    This last week has been a rollercoaster... things have been extra crazy at work, we got a foot of snow in a couple of days and temperatures dropped from 0 celsius (32F) to -20C (-4F) pretty much overnight. I have not been logging my food as planned or weighing in daily as planned, but at least I somewhat stuck to my meal plan.

    Next week things should start easing. There’s still way too much work but no strict deadlines next week and a lot of the overload is preparations for a role transition that should lessen my workload, and I agreed with my boss that I’ll be taking a 3-day-weekend once a month to begin balancing all the overtime hours I’m clocking in. Calling it ”balancing” is really a joke considering the amount of hours I’ve been doing, but at least it’s a start.

    Next week I’m also getting back to logging, weighing in and the gym. This week was just a blip towards the mess I was last fall, not a freefall I couldn’t stop!

    CONFESSION TIME

    I dread my weigh in tomorrow. I was up 2 full pounds when I looked this am :(
    I've eaten like garbage most of this week. I've had a couple new stressors.... I must learn to control stress eating. @imgwendolyn2015 looks like we are two peas in a pod!!!

    Let me know if you figure it out! I'm so pissed at myself for letting food take over. And the drinking....ugh. I need to take some lessons from you Beka!

    Weigh in tomorrow and TOM started today- total bummer but it’s inevitable. At some point it was going to effect the weigh in. Was hoping to help our team out this week 🤦🏼‍♀️
