If food starts teleporting then we have a whole new problem! But you are right, mindless was the best way to describe it. What I really mean is probably more akin to boredom and I just don't even think about it. I do great while at work. Make my lunches. Weight the food (new food scale!). But it is when I am in…

You definitely hit it on the head. Work has been so stressful lately; that any hobbies I have done have fallen to the wayside a bit. I need to get back to doing the things that alleviated the stress and were not associated with food so it doesn't become a habit. I will keep on keeping on.

I messed up ALL week! But I said the same thing to myself...new day. Accepting this for myself and moving on for today. It'll be a nice victory today when we stick with it.

I had 2 hardboiled eggs for lunch. And a salad for dinner. Couldn't go over 500 calories! I stopped after a week. I suddenly was at work one day…

It is soooooo addicting! The funny thing is that I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome (the only minor medical issue that I have; runs in the family too) and when I eat clean and what could be considered healthy and within what is "safe" for me....by digestive tract hates me. A few tacos from Taco Bell....or sweet pastries....or…

Absolutely I focus on too much at once. It's that part of me that is a perfectionist; if I don't do it right the first time or fall off the wagon....then end of the world!!! But I can definitely see me needing to be a bit more harsh on my inner monologue. You are right, if someone spoke to me the way I do; I wouldn't even…
