It has been such a long day and a tough one for me... It has been raining on and off here all day so the kids have been inside (making me a little loony) ... I didn't feel like getting out either. I was actually really hungry today even though I ate pretty well and have had a lot of water to drink.

What do you do on tough days? What helps get you through? I'd love some ideas.

Thank you!

Lisa

    Depending on the age of your kids I would say spring clean a room!! Take everything out of the room (have the little crumb snatchers help you) and put it all back together and organize. It helps me to get lost in a project!!!

    Play board games with the kids, or have a treasure hunt, play chase.....lots of fun, and burns a few calories to. Keep up the hard work, I had the same hunger sensations when I first started, at night mostly. Pop some popcorn, great fiber low cals! Remember you can do it, and know inside YOU are Worth it!!!! Good Luck!

    Anything that relaxes you if you're feeling anxious or antsy. Do your nails or take a hot bath (even if it's a quick one)... work out! That always relaxes me. I got a speeding ticket a couple weeks ago and was seriously FUMING. As soon as I got on the elliptical (yeah, I was on the way to the gym, I was so excited to get there, I sped!) I didn't think about it ONE time while I was on. I focused on my calories and heart rate and then I remembered once I got in the sauna but I let it float off my back because this was ME time.
