    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?

    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. :)

    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!!

    Little win today..
    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!!

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

    I am hoping that tomorrow will be my day to feel good again. I am ready to be back in the routine and exercising again. I need to start logging again too, I have gotten out of the habit this past week.

    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!!)

    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.

    What a great NSV....being able to spend quality time with your daughter doing something active that she enjoys and fully participating!!
