mmm. baklava, or just homemade goodies. Bad jen!
Today was day 1 for me. I lost the fight with a pumpkin dessert I should have just thrown out. But I ate it. I sometimes cook things that don't turn out perfect and am so disgusted with my failure, I eat it to get rid of it. It was delicious, just not presentable. Crust was too done.
I was outside busting my butt after I had been inside busting my butt and cleaning. All of a sudden I got dizzy from low blood sugar. I got in the house and HUNGER overpowered me. I looked for something quick and tasty--nothing. So I grabbed the pumpkin bars (supposed to be pie but had too little filling and the crust was too done--so it became bars) I ate so much in such little time, I had no time to register that I was full. When 20 minutes passed, I was stuffed and sick to my stomach. I do have to say I was already not feeling the best because of a horrid grade I received from my teacher. I can't believe it was so bad. I think there was some emotional eating that I was trying to avoid by cleaning like a mad woman. One coping strategy is productive the other is not.
Whatever, I got through day 1 with just a little bit of overeating. I was so so so tired today.
I logged over 23,000 steps yesterday, and barely did 8700 today. I ended up needing more rest, and that stopped my overeating. Sometimes I eat for energy. I guess I will start a new thread.
