I survived a lot going on today, including throwing my youngest a birthday party with cake and ice cream, buying Easter candy for the kids, and managed to effectively dodge a long run of insults from my sassy mom lol And best yet, oldest son is in a much better place than when they arrived so we actually got quality time together.

Feelings I would gladly drown in chocolate syrup if it wasn’t libel to kill me:
Sadness. My mom is aging rapidly and it’s too soon I feel.
Worry/guilt. Am I doing enough for my mom.
Exhaustion. I am just tired from my daily routine and I’m not even close to being on top of things.

And lastly, what really seem to do the trick for me today was avoiding my pitfalls of emotional eating … that’s when I usually lose control. I have felt quite emotional throughout the day and I therefore fasted the majority of the day. After my guests left and went to bed, i slowly ate my own food, and I didn’t overdo it. I decided that logging exact calories was a waste of time and energy for today since it’s been so hectic so I am putting a ballpark figure into my app so that I can still meet my goals this week.

Off to bed I go 😘

I hear you - life can be more than hectic but the pleasure is also in the pain when it comes to family and family events. A good sleep and if you can swing it - a quiet slower morning - make some moment for yourself. Lock yourself in the bathroom !!! You sound busy busy busy.

DJ I have to say that I will be thinking about your comment all morning now. Kaybuckaroo is not a computer programmer but I definitely can smell what you’re stepping in here … what do you suppose those activities have in common, diy and programming? The Doing? Creating? Using your hands? Escapism? Something that your mind can go into auto pilot doing? I seem to gravitate towards my car and I love to drive. And I’m a singer. I love memorizing new runs in music and hitting notes… that feels good to me. I also adore cleaning usually…

Excellent work in the trenches, where it matters most and wins are truly made.

@Kaybuckaroo I couldn't post on the Halo Top pic but wanted to say I love Halo Top. I had never heard of it until I saw your post. You are the one who literally got me started on those delicious calorie friendly desserts. 😁

I too love halo top! They make a dark cherry ice cream that is to die for but it's really hard to find! I had it while traveling in Montana a few years ago and haven't found it since! I usually get the chocolate. Warning...I tried their chocolate fudge bars and they tasted like I was eating cardboard. They were terrible! I'll stick with the ice cream💜
