Well, I had a rough afternoon and was wanting to cry, scream, hit someone and bury myself in a tub of vanilla ice cream. And pasta, and butter, and well, everything bland and fatty and soothing. Instead I walked around my neighborhood for 20 minutes when I got home to give myself a few minutes to calm down and then drank a glass of water. Then had a yogurt and when I realized I was both hungry and munchy I peeled & sliced a large English cucumber (one of those 2-feet suckers) and ate the whole thing. I now feel much better. Better because I took some time to calm down, better because I didn't sabatoge my efforts of the past few weeks, and better because turning towards healthy solutions was at least as stress-relieving as the ice cream would have been. ...but I'm still going to throw away the ice cream that's deep in the freezer -- knowing it is there is weighing on me. |

thanks everyone! Today's been better, and I'm really pleased I don't have guilt from yesterday to deal with either. |
