Well, it has been a challenging few weeks. I started out really strong, then life happened! With my
FIL dying it has been an emotional
roller coaster for me and my husband. I noticed that when he is having a particularly hard day coping with the loss I tend to make myself feel better with food.... I guess I am a big stress eater. When I am busy at work, the food that comforts me is a cheeseburger.....and some chocolate chip cookies.....Why does food make me feel better? Why do I comfort myself with food?!?!
Well, despite all that we have been through I managed to lose 3.2 more pounds for a total of 7.7 pounds. It really would come off faster if I
followed the plan properly....I am surprised that even with all of my indulges, I have lost. It must be all of the calories I burn with breastfeeding.
I am
proud to say that I am exercising at the Y and eating more
fruits and veggies! and drinking lots of water!!!
Here's to a new week and moving forward.....and never giving up!
