I'm Back...

I apologize for not posting much lately...I think I was just mentally worn out. But things are better - the sun is shining, the sky is blue (although it's rather cold), my kids are doing ok and we are moving ahead.

Interestingly, with all of last week's stress, I didn't find myself overeating. Now that's not to say that I didn't think about food - brownies, especially - but I guess I realized that overeating wouldn't make it better. And I probably would have felt worse, physically. So there's that. I also kept up with my workouts. Again, not going wouldn't have helped anything. Old me would NOT have behaved this way, I assure you! I guess healthy eating and exercise really are becoming more and more like *gulp* habits for me. Who would've guessed it?

I'll post more this week. I have a new jeans story that I know y'all just can't wait to hear about! (Yes, I must be feeling good as my sarcasm is coming back!)

  3. I think someone said it at WW recently:

    If food isn't the problem; food isn't the answer.

    I keep running that thru my head.

    Sounds like you have a similar sound track!

    Good job fighting stress eating.
