The weather has been crazy here - it has been so cold. On Thursday, Jan. 28, it rained and sleeted which caused 1/2 inch of ice everywhere. Then to top it off, it snowed on Friday, snowed all day - we got about 3 inches of snow. The schools are closed, the interstates are closed, everything but Walmart is closed!! Walmart (I got this first hand from a friend) is out of all the basic items, even oatmeal!! Lots of empty shelves. And that leads me to say ...
I have been trying very hard not to go crazy with the food. I have been riding the "bike" for 1 mile - which is good for me with my foot not being up to par yet. I have been doing "my" exercises whenever I go from bathroom to bedroom. So Thursday and Friday both have been good days food wise. Now Saturday I felt like I wanted to eat more for some reason. Maybe because I have been alone now for several days (which I do enjoy), or because I am bored; just not too sure. I watched a lifetime movie that caught my attention. About a lady that misrepresented herself with her boss; but her and several friends have a pact to lose weight and get healthier. It was about their journey and at times they talked about the why they gained their weight - I could relate to some of it. It brought to mind several of my problems and why I gain some of my weight. I know that I am an emotional eater and it is hard to stop. I will eat when I am happy, sad, loney, bored, busy, or just because. Most of the time when I do this, I will start to eat sometimes and before you know it the box is empty. My solution ... I count out a portion and put the box back on the shelf. It is almost a habit for me now ... only Saturday I did have a problem with leaving the crackers alone. But I am sure working on it ... and it has not been too bad.
