Day 18 - Stress Eating

I was probably 19, maybe 20 in this pic. I'm the cute little one again in the middle ;). I picked this one today just because I've been trying to track down my friend on the right. She moved away and we lost touch. Well today, I got a hold of her ex-husband on facebook. The last he knew she was living in Las Vegas...not exactly a small town to track someone down in. Oh well, I'll keep trying. So here's my shout out to Jamie. Miss ya and hope to talk to you soon!

I'm really noticing lately that I'm struggling with the stress eating. It's not like I have TONS of stress but just trying to get stuff done, etc. I think the "newness" is wearing off and it's becoming harder. I'm still doing pretty good but I'm having to think about it more and I think that's where a lot of the "stress" is coming from right now.

Today was a no gym day and my calories were 1320.

  1. I have become a stress eater as well, and strangely, I was watching Dr. Oz (which I NEVER watch) today and it was all about stress eating and food allergies, both of which are pretty important to me! But, they didn't really have great ideas for stress eating... I mean, all of it is basically think about what you're eating before you eat it. Here are two of the techniques I'm going to employ: I'm always going to drink a whole glass of water before I eat anything. I'm also going to take a moment and think "If I'm too embarrassed to write down that I ate this, I shouldn't eat it." We'll see how that goes.. .you say bye to the belly and I'll say bye to the double chin!
