Good morning RED team!
Emily – New running shoes are awesome! I really need to get a new pair, but I have a really hard time finding ones that are comfortable. I have terrible feet. They hurt me most of the time.
Cecilia – good job on getting back to exercising! Try to stay warm!
Melissa – I’m glad the fingernail is feeling better. I hate fingernail injuries! Good luck on the quiz.
Tina – I’m sorry you’re having a rough time of it. I’m glad you have a place like the wonderful
RED team to come and vent. I totally understand your thoughts on identifying with addicts. I definitely have those moments when food is the only thing I think about. My binges are certainly linked to anxiety. I get anxious about something and my heart starts racing, I can’t breathe and on comes the binge. I get out of control. I can only imagine that all of the emotions around PMS can cause you to lose all control. I don’t have any advice. Just
Cat – Hang in there. Sorry about your frustrating gains. TOM stinks!
Rennie – It’s great that you can draw on us for support. I had never heard
“If hunger isn’t the question, food isn’t the answer.” I like it. That may have to go on my refrigerator. Hang in there on your scale issues. Sometimes I won’t lose for a little while and then I drop several pounds. And as Melissa says all of the time, scales are for fish!
Laura – Yea willpower! Have fun at your conference!
Nicoya – I hope you will find someplace to rent very soon.
Cathy – I hope you get to feeling better soon.
Roni – I hope you feel better. Did it feel like you pulled something or slept on your body in a funny way? Sometimes I get a place in my chest that feels like something (in my mind I tell myself it’s my lung but I don’t think that’s actually what it is) gets pinched between my ribs. I hope it doesn’t happen again. That does sound scary!
I’m managing to stay on track with my eating. I’m not exercising as much as I did last week, but I’m still doing at least 30 minutes a day.
Take care everyone!
