183.6
Yesterday
Calories Burned - 3066
Calories Consumed - 2566

The snack monster had a hold of me last night, calories are a bit higher than I would have liked, even though I still had a deficit. I gained a bit overnight. However, I am still in the "zone" so I will choose not to fret. I have too many other things to fret about. Hubby not feeling well ... but he still went to work. My mind races to the worst possible scenario when he is not feeling well. I'm sure that is normal. Only one more day of waiting ... at least to find out test results. I will continue to work on staying HERE ... in the moment ... not an easy task right now. I guess the good news is I wrote it all down ... what I ate ... that is progress. I know we have many good thoughts and prayers coming our way. I have a busy day ahead of me which is probably also positive, less time to let my mind race. Thanks buddies ... for being willing to ride this roller-coaster with me ... I know many of you have ridden this roller-coaster yourself. I know I am not alone. I am however, scared.

Great job on staying with it and staying here, when it probably seems so much easier to give up. I am sure your husband appreciates it too. ((Hugs))

We can't help but feel fear at certain times. But fear just a word, a sound and not *exactly* what you are feeling which is a lot more complex. Let it take you where it will. May God be with you *always* moose.

Keep strong - The unknown is worse than the known. My thoughts are with you. I know your fear intimately

As always ... reading your comments brings peace to my heart and a sense that I have a wide community of support surrounding me. Flaxseed, I know you know my fear ... how have you remained strong? Some days I am okay ... others I feel almost paralyzed. And yet I know many have faced what I am facing and worse and have still put one foot in front of the other. Oh the joys of the human condition. Breathe deeply ... I say!! I ended up coming home today with a migraine. They say migraines are not stress related but it makes one wonder doesn't it? The good news is I got in a very long nap. And, just for fun I got on the scale (which I never do in the middle of the day) and it said 181!!! That did make me smile. I do not want to return to my old coping mechanism of eating the pain away. I know it will only bring me more pain and cause me to feel badly towards myself. I think I am doing okay ... I feel like the little engine that could ... I think I can, I think I can, I think I can!! Thank you all ... thank you so much.

I think you are doing an awesome job considering the stressful circumstances! If I was in your place the old me would have binged all my progress away already, but not you, you are so strong!! I will keep you and your hubby in my prayers!
