I started off 2012 on the wrong foot. Met my sis and nieces at Mom and Dad's for New Year's lunch. My sis and I tend to be overeaters, and being around each other accelerates the problem. It's as though if one of us is going to pig out, that gives the other permission to do the same. I'm not beating myself up over this; I'm just analyzing what is going on here.
I can easily see the fat accumulating around my waist from overeating since September. All the smaller-sized pants I bought this fall are fitting much too snugly. I want to stop this trend. I'm feeling uncomfortable and not as energetic as I have been.
Mr Coco is not really committed to better eating. I have to practice saying no when we go to a fast-food drive-thru. I caved in the other day even though I knew if I waited 30 minutes, I could have fixed myself a low-cal meal at home.
Now that I think about it, I'm definitely using food for comfort while other things in my life are out of sorts right now. That's pretty common. I have to focus on how feeling physically ill from being overweight will make things even worse.
