food is not the enemy. eating too much of it, is.

TOM makes me hungry too and i eat more fruit at that time.

Time of the month

Thanks Carolina girl. The last 3 months have been a total change for me. I don't think I ever realized I was an emotional eater. But in in the south you eat for everything - to celelbrate, to greive, to have fun, to visit. When I go visit my family it's tough, my mom was always use to showing her love through food, so she is having to adjust to my new eating habits. Me, my mom, and grandma spent a lot of time together through the years. I am now an hour and a half away and my grandmother is on hospice and basically just a vegetable- really hard. The 3 of us spent a lot of time cooking for the family, canning veggies, freezing veggies, most of our time together was in the kitchen. On days like today I remember and want to be in the kitchen. I don't have kids to start new tradtitions with and doubt I will ever have any. So days like today make me remember and yearn for the days gone by.

But, I am getting up now and hitting the elliptical!!
