STRESS = FOOD, NO STRESS = ?
My thought for today is this: is being under stress a reason to over eat? I think overeating from stress is just a bad habit - "bad" in the sense that I am not happy with the results.
Like my mom making her decisions about money where she is happy about what she has done, I would like to be happy about my decisions overall, and with food specifically.
I am finding with my divorce, I am reconnecting with the process of figuring out who I am now. I was married, harried and not taking care of my self - hence, I gained a lot of weight. Now, I am not married. I have less aggravation so I am not so harried. Next, I do need to take care of myself better.
My brother just broke up with his girlfriend of 25 years - I think he and I are in similar situations, so we were exchanging advice. My main advice to him, and to me: start making new friends, finding new places to go, and having a different kind of fun that we have done in the past. His main advice to me was that starting over is hard work! Lol, no kidding!
I quit the Historic farm Museum volunteer job - I signed up for the Historical Society because it has more men! I admit it - I like history, I like men - I think I should maximize my potential to fulfill both of those interests. Just saying.
So, food should be a focus in my weight loss journey, and I am counting calories in my head if not on here - I have been so sick I just couldn't even get here some days! I think I might be better in the next day or two, though, so I am taking it easy today, eating healthy-ish choices, and planning to take better care of me by taking better care of what I am eating.
No fooling. Hope you all have a great April Fool's Day!
