NSV - No emotional eating today!

Small victory over emotional eating today !
So I'm in a meeting with my boss and one of our new executives(who I just met), and he mentions a few of his employees that he is mentoring to bring them to the next level, and that some of his employees he's just "renting" for a while. Guess what category I fell into?
Since work is pretty much my life (or at least it was prior to me getting on MFP and being heathier), normally, I would be really upset about this and start to binge --especially on sugar.
But I'm thinking about leaving the Reese's Peanut Butter Egg in the cabinet (yes - it's still there from Easter!) and instead going downstairs to exercise. For some reason, I am in the mood for some Wii Boxing (LOL)
Thanks, MFP friends for letting me RANT and for helping me celebrate a NSV!

That's right! Take your aggression out on your Wii (well not really)! You should throw that chocolate egg away so that the temptation is gone!0

Good for you!!!!! That is awesome! Keep up the good work :flowerforyou:0

give 'em hell in the ring!!! Why do we define ourselves by what we are professionally? I know that is a large % of our day but really there is a lot more to a person!! I have the same problem by the way have had a SUCK time with work lately but MFP and trying to stay on track and be healthy has REALLY helped. We're better than that, no??0

Kudos for your self-control over the chocalate egg, and for NOT punching the silly executive out when he put his Whole foot in his mouth!! You're a better person than that! I like the idea of getting the frustration out (not keeping it in where it could fester)-- but boxing it away with your Wii. Go for the burn sweetie! Nice job!:bigsmile:0

I'm thinking of creating a "boss MII.' Anyone know how to do that? LOL
Thanks for all of the support -- I really needed it today!
(note: chocolate egg is still intact! )0 -
Oh that's such a huge achievement!! Way to go!0

I just kicked some major cartoon butt tonight, and I feel SO much better! I even was able to cheer myself up doing 20 minutes of Wii Zumba! WAHOO!
Thanks to Y'All -- I will make it through another day (and so will the chocolate egg!)0
