Learning about my triggers.... What about yours?

ARRGH! Today someone backed into my car crunched the trunk and didn't leave a note! A nice older man in the parking lot saw the whole thing and got gave me the person's license plate number. But argh! now I have to deal with insurance, police report and a car with a trunk that won't close.
What does this have to do with health and wellness? This is such a typical trigger that convinces me the universe is conspiring against me, makes me much tons of chips and drink beer, it is also is the kind of thing that in the past would make me think I should take a day off from working out...but not....THIS time!!

Is that a similar trigger for people (feeling sorry for yourself, when things don't go your way?). What are your triggers? How do you overcome them?

Well at least it's not cigarettes!!! Tried kicking that habit many times in my life!

I say if you are an emotional eater - just chose the healthier options - like a light beer and weight watchers chips.

I have learned to distract myself until the craving goes away!
