Weight Loss Wednesday, August 21

 

Another decent week for steps, at least overall—vacations can be great for the step count— but still very inconsistent.  I really am trying to work on that.

And I’m not sure when I became an emotional eater, but sometime within my adulthood it seems to have happened.  For me, the trigger is definitely stress.  At my old job, that was a really bad thing, seeing as how the place was powered by stress and I was miserably unhappy for the last couple of years I was there.  Even so, I had somehow managed to control the eating.  Now, it’s a different kind of stress, a much lower level kind of thing, but I seem to have lost the control.  I’m pretty sure there are entire professions built around helping people figure out why things push their buttons and how to deal with it without stuffing food into their face, but I’m hoping I won’t need to go quite that far to get myself under control.  Every day is a new challenge, so I’ll just keep on keeping on.
