I have not given up! I have just been swamped since before Thanksgiving. This is a very busy time of year in the newspaper world. Then, of course, there were the layoffs. 16 people at my paper were let go. The Powers That Be warned us back before Halloween, and didn't do the nasty deed until last Tuesday. Talk about ghoulish....
My stress eating problem came back with a vengeance. One co-worker had already broken out the Russell Stovers by 9:30 AM. That day I was able to resist until the afternoon, but sister, nothing soothes like a chocolate. Any chocolate.
I was pretty disappointed in myself. I thought I had conquered stress eating, but no.
I'm hanging in there during this crazy festive eating season. I'm trying to watch it, but also not going fanatic about it.

Hello
Hey Heather! Yes... I can relate to the stress eating AND the soothing effect of chocolate. I switched to dark chocolate recently and I seem to eat less of it -less creamy factor- I think I am a total "creamy" addict. (If it's possible to be addicted to a food texture!) I'm just hoping to get through the "Holly Daze" without gaining... I'm barely staying on plan and trying hard not to slip into old habits! I'm avoiding my "Momentum" tutorial since I think a change in my plan NOW might push me over the edge! ; )
Hi Heather! Girl, do I know about stress eating! That is my middle name! lol
I'm not sure how, but I wasn't a follower of yours anymore. I know I had some computer problems that lasted about a month so maybe that's why. Anyways, I added myself again! :o)
I'd love to hear from you! How are you???
