Hey ladies. I am a little bored tonight. I am sitting in my bedroom while DH is watching TV in the living room. Out of pure boredom, I just caught myself eating almost a whole can of almonds. At least it wasn't pure junk, but I do feel bad about it since I've been trying so hard.

I just had to tell someone to get this off my chest. I know it could have been worse.

Ugh, boredom eating. I have battled and will continue to battle with that particular beast for a long time to come. It is so easy to reach for food to provide stimulation and a sense of reward. Even worse is when you're bored and don't even realize what or how much you're eating. Maybe I need a hobby !

Almonds are better than candy bars, that's for certain! Today I had a bowl of low-fat home made chili with cheese on the top because I was craving pizza. With the cheese it wasn't as low calorie as it would have been but I figure it's better than the alternative.

Some days you gotta pick your battles and be thankful for small mercies!

MN.

Try not to dwell on it, almonds are healthy atleast

At least it wasn't a whole box of doughnuts!

Yeah, at least it was healthy fats instead of crispy kreme or something like that.
Just get back up on the diethorse.
