I'm really trying not to cave in to my old bad habits. I'm an emotional eater, and this week has already been quite a week. A friend of ours is in the hospital and the outlook isn't good at all. I also started my period today. (and that's when those cravings really sneak up on me!) I'm only on my second week of phase 1, by the way.
I can feel those old habits of looking to food for comfort sneaking up on me. I found myself just standing in the kitchen, staring into the cabinets! I haven't gone off the program, and don't plan on it. But what I have done is have that extra sugar free fudgesicle, and extra almonds today. I just want that to be IT. I'm not hungry, and I know myself all to well, that when I'm struggling with something emotionally, I'm likely to turn to food. And I don't want that to happen now...not when it's so important that I make this change for good!
Any support or suggestions y'all can give would be appreciated so much!
