in Introduce Yourself
This past weekend was crammed full of stress. I caved and ate half a dozen donuts! I am "back on the wagon." I gained a few pounds back. I struggle daily with my commitment to better health and a stronger body. I hate to exercise, but I love the WII. There are so many games that get you moving with the WII.

    It sure is. I find that when I'm stressed out I don't want to cook so then we go eat out. :( Now I want pizza. great! :)

    Stress is probably the reason I gained weight, and the lack of it why I lost it again. B*****d!

    Stress make we want to eat. Anxiety makes me sick to my stomach. I had a lot of anxiety about a month ago and could barely eat anything. I'm glad that's passed.

    I am with you on the anxitey = stress = I don't want to cook and then I order out. Especially when I my son is not home, it is so much easier to order out than cook, a habit I am trying to break :)

    It is impossible to be perfect all of the time! There was a topic on here last night asking if folks had cheat times and it turns out they do within moderation. The impressive thing was that most of them had lost a lot of weight and stated if you didn't cheat from time to time that this would be unsustainable. I think they are right, you have to have a little reward now and again. Just consider it a cheat day and start over the next day. That's what I did last night when I got into the graham crackers!

    I have seen some books at Barnes and Nobles about mind control and stress hormones. I am going this weekend to check them out. I think my extra around my tummy is from stress.
