A new day

Well, after a good nights sleep, I feel better. I'm down 3 more lbs. since saturday, so that helps. The fact that I held my eating together and used exercise instead of food to work off my grief feels really good.  I have a busy day today, but hopefull I'll still be able to keep things together. I will update journal this evening. Today has gone fairly well. I had a good session with my shrink. I did 100 steps on the treadmill and I'm going to try to talk myself into doing some more tonight.  My eating has abeen pretty much in check. I had a Dutch Bros smoothie as a snack that I probably could have done without, but other than that it's been good. My boy is behaving better today. I think he is trying to do better, b ut Honestly I can't tell. I'm tired of trying to build fences around him.

WTG on the 3 lbs!....but even moreso on not resorting to overeating during the stress overload.

That is HUGE!!!!

Anxiety makes me want to eat and eat...I\'m having a huge amount of stress right now with work...but I know that overeating will really just make me feel so much worse.

Glad that things are going better with your son. It is the hardest job in the world to be a parent.
