Deep Breathe and Moving On

Over the last week, and especially the last few days, I have allowed myself to be affected by situations beyond my control.  I have binged on chocolate chip cookies in bed, drank too much beer and over ate food that I knew would not make me feel any better.  Yet, at the end of all of these bad choices, I have only felt worse. I took the one thing that I could control and chose to spite myself.

Now, as the smoke begins to clear a bit, I am trying to come out of this funk... I know that regardless of what  I am given in life, it's up to me to make it better and make it work for me.  Change is inevitable and instead of fighting it or even rolling with the punches, I plan to make it work for me.  Just don't ask me how... yet.  I just wanted to put it out into the universe that I am done moping and will face this challenge head on.  

Now, if I can only figure out how to skip that phase when sh-t happens...

**Do you face challenges head on or do you mourn losing the hold you have on life?
**Do you eat when you are stressed or are you one of the crazies who can't eat when stressed?  Can we switch?

  1. Ha! I wish I was one of those 'crazies' that didn't eat when I was stressed! I eat everything in sight!! I think when you have days like that you just have to remind yourself that you are human, and tomorrow is a clean slate and you can turn it around and eat healthy and make better choices.
