A reason for sitting

I came to a realization today about myself.....I usually have to sit and rest a few minutes several times a day to help with the fibro fatigue......and today I realized that I am sorta subconsciously feeling that I must justify those breaks somehow....and I've been having a snack to do that....you know, like a coffee break! The problem, you ask? Well, thanks to that, I have gained 13 lbs....

So now, I am consciously NOT eating during my breaks, drinking water instead.......has anyone else done this, or am I nuts and alone??? LOL

HUGS from down south :)

YAHH I THINK I HAVE TO BE EATING SOMETHING OR HAVE A GREEN TEA I HAVE BEEN CUTTING UP VEGGIE & GRAB A HANDFUL OR FRUIT BUT CUT IT UP SO YOU ONLY EAT TWO OR THREE VEDGES ON A BREAK!
I HAVE ALSO BEEN SITTING ON MY EXERCISE BALL INSTEAD OF A CHAIR! TO STRENGTH MY STONACH MUSCLE JUST SITTINGON IT ENGAGES THE MUSCLES W/ NO MOVEMENT SO I JUST RELAX THERE FOR 5-10 MIN OR I LAY ACROSS IT BACK OR STOMACH! REALLY HELPS TO STRETCH EVERYTHING= HURTING!

Nope, I do that too. It's a bad habit with me. Maybe it's a "reward" for actually getting something done and being such a good fighter against pain. :)

Get a good book, and reach for that at your break or chair sitting time, instead of food. Only thing is you get hooked on the book. LOL

    Food Allergy?

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
