So I’ve been stressing lately.  I close on my house on the 29th and hopefully all will calm down.  I move in a month.  Once I am in, I know I will get back on track.

I have been stress eating, but I’ve also been sick (migraines) and haven’t really been as “bad” as I could have been.   Not having any food in the house helps.  I’m not kidding in my fridge is aspagus and lemonade.

Anyway.   Once the numbers are finalized and everything, I am going back on my diet.   Eating healthier and having food in the house.

I promise (to myself)

A community blog that has a theme of the week chose the theme of “hunger” this week, so i wrote about it on my personal blog. A lot of what I discuss fits in this forum, so here’s the link in case anyone wants to read it.

Hello! I’ve taken on a bit of.. what’s the word here.. insanity? Psycho Wonder Woman Wannabe? Dunno. At any rate, I’ll be away from the computer for about a month given the fact that we have 12 days notice to move (house sold) and pick up life again in another town. Weee!

In light of the stress at home, I’ve decided to focus on a few things I tend to forget when I’m stressed. I’m looking at obstacles and how to over come them. For example: When stressed I tend to 1. Not eat and then eat a bunch of bad for me food later. 2. Drink coffee and exist soley on sugar and caffeine and wonder why I’m gaining weight 3. Not work out. That pretty much sums it up. So, I have a fail safe method for being healthy AND surviving the next three weeks.

At my last weigh in on the new scale I finally moved below the last lowest weight I had on the old scale. Now I finally feel like I’m picking up where I left off and can track my progress a little better for motivation. I’ve been in limbo for a couple of weeks while we ripped up the carpet in the bathroom and put down hard flooring that will allow a scale to measure more accurately. I don’t know what I’ve actually lost over the last couple of weeks as I couldn’t really compare.

I’ve had some challenges–as usual–with eating out. I just keep picking myself up and making my next choice a good one. Wish I could avoid eating out completely!

It’s spring break here and the oldest is at home and going stir crazy and the other two are following his lead. My husband is driving me nuts with all of his crap too–while I keep trying to get this house clean.
