Ughhhh Bad Day

Not a bad day for food so much as a bad day for a)weather and b)my bank account is screwed up. Not a happy Sara!

 

I've been carrying water with me everywhere to drink, so thats a good thing.

I had a banana for breakfast, some saltines for a snack, a small piece of bertucci's pizza with veggies on it (Matt gave it to me) and

a couple waffle fries. Yah, ok, not perfect. But I was out all afternoon taking my mom to her dr.'s appt in the rain; driving here and there.

 

*sigh* and the week goes on, still busy too.

 

I'm going to be full time living at my parent's house in a week. Sooo much to do there to get it organized; and when I'm stressed out like that, its

just a matter of time before my brain sneaks up and me and says "YOU WANT FOOD! YOU WANT IT NOW!" And I eat something I shouldn't

to relieve my stress. But I'm going to be smarter than that....

 

Xmas shopping coming up too! Oh goody! Spending money on other people!! *gag*

 

Road trip to Pittsburgh for Xmas, that is where Matt's parents and daughter live. *stress*

Sounds like you are using stress as an excuse to eat what you know you should not. Start keeping healthy things with you so when you want to stress eat you can turn to them. Keep a protein bar in your bag, it is easy to take out and eat and you will be happier with yourself.

Hi Sara. we all have bad days, some more than others. One suggestion you might try is to keep a journal of what you eat and when. This may help you pin down your triggers and then you can manage them easier.

I agree with Brenda, make healthy choices if you need to eat...a piece of fruit, snack on steamed veggies or drink a protein shake. I liked peanut butter a whole bunch when I found myself wanting something. Discovered I could eat a 32 ounce jar in a week...cut that out quickly.

With practice, perservence and conviction, you will get past the hard times. Hang in there.
