I was soooo happy with my week 3 weigh in!
This is farther than I've ever gotten with Weight Watchers, South Beach Diet, or anything else I've tried.
It has been a pretty stressful few days, and I didn't realize just HOW MUCH I use food when I'm stressed.
On Monday, I started my new job. By 2 pm, I wanted to eat everything in sight. Was I hungry? Nope - I was just stressed. I just wanted cheese and nachos. Lots and lots and lots of cheese and nachos.
So, what did I eat? Nothing. Nothing at all. Was I satisfied? No. Not at all.
I realized I have no other tools to deal with my stress. So, I went home, changed into my sweats, sat on the bed with my kids and just felt miserable.
Today, it happened again - I had so many forms to fill out for hospital privileges - all the same information but slightly different. I wanted to eat. Did I eat? Nope.
I did, however, just get up and walk away for a minute or two - just to de-stress.
I really have to find some good coping skills.
