Finally hit the 7 lb loss mark. It seemed like nothing happened in January scale wise though I did get super clear on my "rules" and I realized the reason why I would have super intense cravings in the afternoons between 1-3 pm. If I have been having a super stressful morning and don't have time to take even a 5 minute rest break (no phone, no interactions, just rest or walk outside) then my brain sends out the emergency signals and I get stuck in that sympathetic state of fight or flight. So 8 days ago I was having a strong chocolate craving, really intense and I stopped and somatic breathing-count of 7 on the inhale, count of 11 on the exhale. I did this about 4-5 times and I could tell that I had switched over to the parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest). My cravings practically vanished. Knowing how to deal with the cravings I wrote down my new rule-"I will never again eat chocolate candy" and I make sure to take a 5 minute break, or do the breathing, when I am stressed out. It's been 8 days and I am chocolate candy free with no interest in it at all. That's an even bigger WIN than hitting the 7 lb mark. I've got some freedom around this chocolate bingeing that has been plaguing me for years. Have a great Friday everybody.

I've been sick since Wednesday night-missed 3 days of work which has added extra stress. Additionally I have had no energy to cook or do any meal prep, pretty much eating what the hubs has fixed for us. Luckily, we don't keep snack foods in the house so we've had good hearty plant based meals. I hope to feel better come Monday as I want to make up a big batch of Minestrone soup and heaps of potatoes for the coming work week.

I managed to put some good habits back in place in December; paid attention to what I was eating, when I was eating and how much I was moving, as well as finding ways to manage stress besides snacks and sugar.

My "grief gut" really grew between May of 22 and July of '23. Nearly 30 lbs. I got the weight gain reigned in back in September but could not seem to lose any that I had put on.
