Faced some major challenges over the last few days...and came out on top! From timing issues...and remembering to eat...to hospital cafeteria choices (unbelieveably terrible)...to facing my instinctive "stress eating" desires...to talking to my mother's brownie and throwing it away...it has been one challenge after another regarding this way of eating, and lifestyle choice. The good thing, the healthy thing...is that I did it. I didn't eat under stress to sedate my emotions. And I went to the manager at the cafeteria and asked for help with my food selections (and they were great in accommodating me). I brought a few things with me from home - just in case, but I did manage to have a bite every 3-4 hours...not terrible...probably the worst was getting in all of my water. Some days didn't get the job done. The scale is still moving downward though, so I will what the week's total is on Saturday. All in all, I am most excited that stress did not push me back in the corner of addictive eating. It tried. But I won! Yeah me. Love.
