    Week 5: Bonus point #1- my biggest struggle has been emotional eating....using food when I'm depressed, bored, sad, celebration, or as a reward. When I do this, I'm usually on "auto-pilot" & don't even notice that I've been snacking until 3 or 4 cookies, chips etc are gone.
    Working on being more mindful about this.

    Week 5: Bonus Point #1- My biggest struggle is also emotional/reactional eating, especially when I'm bored or anxious. To help overcome it, I question myself as to my motives when I want to reach for a snack...am I hungry or do I just lack something else to do at that moment... I've started doing some stretching or even unobtrusive chair exercises if I'm not home when the snack urge hits. I also keep precut veggies in the fridge at all times as well as servings of nuts in zipper bags so it's easier to grab something healthy when I really do need a snack!

    Share with your team, one thing that has made you struggle the most on your health and fitness journey and how you've overcome it or how you plan to overcome it.

    For me, it's working with my boyfriend on weighing our food. He does most of the cooking and I am trying to get him on board about weighing out the foods we cut up and put in cups for recipes. Measuring items and weighing items doesn't always translate. He's getting much better at it and remembering to do it. He knows how important it is to me to be accurate and it's great that he wants to help.

    Sorry team, but I must drop out of the challenge for this round. Life and other unreasonable obligations have interfered with my commitment to fitness lately. Good luck to all!

    Sorry team, I also missed entering in my points. I'll have to resign from this challenge and take up being a zombie.
