jenalena's Journal, 27 October 2018

The last few days have been an emotional roller coaster. Life. That's all. Teenagers. Work. Husband. Chores. That time of the month. Yep - it's just life and I'm here to complain a bit.

On the way home from work, my husband were discussing how to handle the teenager issue and decided to go out to eat to keep talking about it. Also, I was having a moment, not feeling well, emotionally drained and I wanted to EAT to make myself feel better. Amazingly, when it came time to order, all of the high carb options were not even desirable. Burgers, Tacos, Pizza... not desirable! My family ordered pizza, and I ordered a small chicken bacon ranch cheese salad and ate the toppings off of one of the pizza slices.

My emotions kicked in when I was asked what to drink... I wanted something warm, he offered Hot Buttered Rum... it WAS THE BEST! And to find out that it's relatively low carb! YAY. I'm 100% sure I went over in my carb count yesterday, although counting with restaurant food is really hard to know.

I've been eating my emotions lately. I don't seem to have the will power to fast. Today, I'm going to load up on brothy soups, zoodles and grill some chicken. I need a no nonsense, I'm back on plan kind of day. I can't control teenagers (obviously), husbands (I'm so glad I don't have more than 1), bosses, work, or the need to do chores... but I can control what I eat. Today I will stay on plan.

My cousin asked me the other day what I do to overcome emotional triggers that can cause me to eat food off of my plan. I took up meditation this last year and I realized that I am really using it to overcome these triggers. Anyway - I’m not saying that meditation works for everyone but I hope you can find something that works for you! We all deserve to be happy and not suffer!!!
