jsfantome's Journal, 16 April 2012

Still not sure we are out of the woods, have had a few ups and downs w/ her blood tests in the last few days. Trying to get my family life, food, exercise and Mom all back on track!

Had a bit of pity party w/ myself these last couple of days, and been so tempted to just throw it all away for a hot fudge sundae!

After all this time, one would think I know the signs to look for when the stress is overwhelming...but it doesn't make the cravings any less severe!

But food will not solve my problems, or make me feel better, actually only worse...so no ice cream for me!

Much Love.

I've got to keep telling myself that - food will not solve our problems. But I sure would love a cookie right now.

You are doing great, keeping it together for your Mom and your whole family, Paula. Don't forget we're here if you just want to talk through things. In the interim, you and your mom are in our thoughts and prayers.

With everything that is going on, I can quite understand how you feel. if youdid give in, you would only regret it and would feel even worse. Your doing great.... Look back a how far you have come and pat yourself on the back. Xx

Congrats on your insight and willpower. I too know that crap won't solve the emotional issues but it is so hard to resist. Kudos that you did!

Paula, I have been right where you are so many times...sometimes I succeeded in taming the stress monster, sometimes I failed. The difference this time is I recognized the triggers (just as you have), and I got back on track much sooner. Hugs, my friend! I know how hard this is. Not just your mom, but the baby leaving the nest... :( It does get better...much love to you!
