Something made me angry today, instead of turning to food and eating my weight in crisps and chocolate - as I would do when angry/sad/any extreme emotion..
I sat it out - Made myself think about WHY I am doing this.. How 1 hour (or whole evening) of stuffing my face with junk wouldnt make it better, it wouldnt fit what had annoyed me.. It would just set me back, making my journey to a healthier me take longer..
So.. Today is a WIN.. I beat over 30 years of emotional eating for, I think - the first time ever..
Actually thinking about it.. It's a BIG WIN..
That is definitely a big win, Em!! We get into the habit of going straight for the comfort food and it is a hard habit to break. The fact that you were able to think about it and stop yourself is a huge NSV!! Well done!!1 -

I didn't do my strength training on Tue like I had planned. I fell asleep right after work. So I had to make up for it today and do cardio and strength training. I really had to push through it, but I've come too far not to make the effort. Tomorrow, I'm going to do some gentle yoga so as not to stress my body too much while I get back into my usual flow.3 -

If you fell asleep, you must have needed the rest! I am glad you are sensibly pushing yourself back into the exercise routine! (We've missed these posts from you!!)0 -
Well, I got my water in this week, which is something. The last three days it was only eight cups a day, the minimum, and I had to force that down! I really need to remember to start earlier in the day. Today I had two cups of water before my first cup of coffee....probably won't do that everyday, but it is a good habit if I could get into it!! How did everyone else do on drinking their water this week?1

In my home office all day Wednesday. While I didn't accomplish much "MFP", I did finally get a lot done in the office that desperately needed to be accomplished and I did manage to cook the soup that I had planned for dinner. Also, finally slept better last night than the previous 2 nights. That should help me a lot today. 0 -

I agree with you wholeheartedly!! If we get our house in order, there is less clutter to get in our way, both physically and mentally. The main reason I am looking forward to hosting Easter dinner at my house is the fact that I will have it all cleaned up and put away!!1 -
Wow never have thought about conversion on that, kinda got me excited that I can almost do a local 5k run in under 1 hour... My goal was to complete one by the end of the year but thanks to you doing to math I might do one next month

My pleasure, and it's a metric conversion calculator....can't take the math credit on that one!!!0 -

I saw my first robin of the season today. For all I know they've been here a month already....I've been holed up all winter!! I decided this is a sign from the universe to get out there.....spring is here!!! (Okay, maybe not in the Maritimes or the American North East...but in Southern Ontario it is here!!) Normally I hate spring. (It is our very busy season and in the thick of it, my husband can put in up to 90 hours in six days.) But this year I need to love spring and embrace all it has to offer. The warming temperatures mean I have no excuse not to get out and enjoy some fresh air while walking or running. Yes, more responsibilities fall to me, but I also have more time to complete them! So, tomorrow I will go for a walk outside!!5

I'm still a bit amazed that I managed it, but I'm really greatful that I worked it out for myself..

Yeah, but only a little. Something is holding you back from really making a concerted effort at this. Figure out what it is and the why, then try to address it. (Yeah, I know.....do what I say and not what I do!! Hey, if I type this out often enough, maybe I'LL start doing what I am saying!!)2 -

You have weathered the illness storm. Just take it easy getting back into the exercise. You don't want to overdo it and then get injured or energy depleted. Yes, logging your food again will start to make you feel like your old self.1 -
