We must find a replacement for "comfort food" if we want to be successful in our weightloss goals.
I have found that my little dog is a wonderful comfort. "Lexie" is a 3 pound 2 year old Chihuahua. She is so intuitive! It seems as if she knows when I am having a tough time. She sits in my lap and searches my face with those huge eyes. It seems as if she knows I am out of kilter and she wants to help me. She is always very close to me, follows me everywhere, but at these times she is especially close, nuzzling my face, even pawing at me and resting her head on me.
Next to my husband, she is my greatest source of support. I feel calmer and more in control when she sits on my lap and I pet her. Just to know that another living, breathing creature is empathetic to my emotions is such a comfort.
What is your comfort and suport that others may find unconventional?
