Good morning, friends! Happy day-after-Thanksgiving to those that celebrated that occasion in some way!

Something helpful for holiday eating? So as I start to work cooking for the holidays (I got the big shopping done yesterday! cooking starts today!), I am thinking about how to make sure I don't dig myself into a big hole with holiday eating. That had me off and reading about things. Sharing in case they are helpful to…

@Cornanda I am so glad you are journaling, and so glad you are working away to find what works for you. Your plan -- focus on sleep and breaking down success into smaller increments -- sounds brilliant. I have so been in this place that you describe. I was afraid I was going to die in bed, unable to walk. I salute your…

Good morning! I am reminding myself to be calm today, and to stick to my food plan. That half of a Garden of Life bar yesterday was me stress eating a bit. I stopped after half and tossed it. I am going to make myself some extra tea today, and be sure to get in exercise. I hope you are all doing well today!
